WASHINGTON, Feb. 28 All travelers arriving in the United States will be

screened by federal border inspectors for radiological materials beginning

this weekend, according to senior Bush administration officials.

The plan is designed to stop terrorists from bringing nuclear material

across the border. It is the most important in a series of counterterrorism

measures that are being put into place as the Customs Service, the

Immigration and Naturalization Service and 18 other federal agencies

formally merge into the new Department of Homeland Security on Saturday.
