President Bush on Wednesday renewed a presidential directive preventing
the release of information about a top secret Nevada air base.

Two widows and five current and former workers are suing the government,
claiming workers were injured when they inhaled toxic chemicals burned
at the base, known as Area 51, 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas on the
dry Groom Lake bed.
