"If he thinks he can hide and run from the United States and our allies he will be sorely mistaken." "This act will not stand," he said.

The vow recalled the words of his father, former President Bush, who put Iraq on notice in 1990 that the United States would not tolerate the invasion of Kuwait.

But first the nation had to mourn and bury its dead. "This is indeed a sad occasion, one to be repeated thousands of times by our fellow citizens across the country," Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said at the memorial service for Barbara Olson, wife of U.S. Solicitor General Theodore Olson. She was among the 64 passengers and crew members on American Airlines Flight 77 that crashed into the Pentagon.

"Those who make war against the United States have chosen their own destruction," he declared Saturday. "We will smoke them out of their holes," Bush said.

Bl I) Authorities search for 2nd witness WASHINGTON (AP) A second arrest warrant for a material witness in the hijackings investigation was issued by federal prosecutors in New York, the Justice Department said Saturday.

The person had not yet been arrested at the time the warrant was announced. Investigators expected to issue additional warrants, perhaps as soon as Saturday evening, as the investigation into Tuesday's attacks shifts into higher gear. "We are at a point where there will be additional and more frequent warrants," said Justice Department spokeswoman Mindy Tucker. Meanwhile, 25 people arrested for immigration violations since Tuesday's hijackings have been questioned by the FBI in the investigation, the Justice Department said. None has been formally charged, either on immigration counts or with crimes related to the four hijackings, Tucker said.

Some but not all of the detainees who have been interviewed are cooperating with the FBI. All are in the Immigration and Naturalization Service's custody. Tucker said that the FBI may not be finished questioning the 25 detainees. None have been released. She declined to say whether any of the 25 are suspected of being accomplices to the plot or whether they have significant information about the plot.

"It's not clear in all cases how important their information is," said Tucker. Among them are two men detained at an Amtrak station in WITNESSA4 By AMY BURCH Staff Writer The Rev. Carl Kemme planned to preach today about the gospel story of the prodigal son who became lost and was waiting to return to his father. That was before Tuesday's tragic events. But Kemme, pastor of Holy Family Catholic Church, decided he could compare the parable at this morning's services to the families who are anxiously waiting to hear about loved ones missing since the terrorist attacks.

And he could relate the story to the spiritual awakening that's taken place nationwide in the days since. "That's how God feels about us when we get lost," Kemme said. "He waits for us. He longs for us to come back, just as those families are waiting for their loved ones to be found." A return to faith and spirituality will be a common thread in many sermons preached today at what are likely to be packed churches in Central Illinois. Many pastors will talk of unity, and some may even speak of the coming of the Lord.

None, however, will likely ignore the tragedy that has rocked the nation this week.
