COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES At October 31, 2018, we had outstanding purchase commitments of $144 million, $126 million of which related to the building and equipping of our China facilities, and had recorded liabilities for the purchase of equipment of $30 million. See Note 7 for information on our operating lease commitments. We are subject to various claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. We believe such claims, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
