ITEM 3.	SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

The source and amount of funds used in purchasing the Stock were as
follows:

Purchaser		Source of Funds			Amount

SCMLP		Funds Under Management	2,006,154,756.63


ITEM 4.	PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

SCMLP acquired the Stock on behalf of its advisory clients for the
purpose of investment.

SCMLP has been holding a position in the common stock of the Issuer
for more than five years, and has reluctantly come to the conclusion
that the Issuer's management and Board of Directors have been remiss
in delivering value to shareholders.  The substantial decline in the
stock price in response to the ill-fated attempt to acquire Unisource
in early 1999 led SCMLP to strongly question the direction of the
Issuer.

After the failure of the Unisource deal, the Issuer's management and
Board embarked on a new venture -- the acquisition of the Flaga
business in Austria and the Czech Republic -- which SCMLP believes
further exposes the Issuer to risks in areas in which management has
little prior positive experience.

The Board of the Issuer has presided over a company whose stock price
today is no higher than it was in 1993, despite what has been
characterized as the greatest stock market rise in US history.



SCHEDULE 13D

CUSIP No. 902681105						Page 6 of 7 Pages


Consequently, in order to express SCMLP's displeasure at this abysmal
performance record, SCMLP plans to vote the shares under its control
AGAINST all members of the Board of Directors, as well as AGAINST the
new stock option plan, at the corporate annual meeting scheduled for
February 29, 2000.


SCMLP intends to communicate, or has communicated, with the Issuer's
Board of Directors and other stockholders to discuss the issues
described above and other issues related to the enhancement of
stockholder value.

SCMLP may purchase at any time or times on behalf of its advisory
clients additional shares of the Stock or other securities of the
Issuer.   SCMLP may at any time or times cause its advisory clients to
dispose of any or all securities of the Issuer in any lawful manner.
SCMLP's advisory clients reserve all of their rights as stockholders
of the Issuer and may exercise those rights in any manner that they or
SCMLP consider to be in the interests of such clients.

Other than as described above, none of the Filers has any present
plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the
transactions or events described in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.


ITEM 5.	INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
