  U.S. President George Bush says the United States will do it all it can to help the victims of the typhoon that struck the Philippines over the weekend. Following talks at the White House with Philippine President Gloria Arroyo 1, Mr. Bush announced plans to send a U.S. aircraft carrier to the scene.

The typhoon left dozens dead in flooded towns in the central Philippines. But the largest single group of fatalities 3 occurred when a ferry carrying more than 800 people capsized Saturday at the height of the storm. Only about 40 people are believed to have survived, and rescue teams now say they are finding only bodies amidst the wreckage 4.
