McDougal tells court she· knows little about Whitewater By PEGGY HARRIS AIIOC..ted Prell Writer LITTI..E ROCK, Ark. - Susan McDougal occasionally dabbed tears from her eyes as she testified that her husband's mental illness was the undoing of their marriage and business and ultimately led to the Whitewater·investigation against President Clinton. A fonner business panner of Clinton and first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, Mrs. McDougal testified almost four hours in her own defense Tuesday. answering some questions she refused to answer before a federal grand jury in 1996 and· again last year. She was expected to return to the stand taday in her trial on charges of obstruction of justice and criminal contempt of court for refusing to answer grand jury questions. Her lawyer, Mark Geragos, said the testimony Tuesday was a "cathartic" experience for hi s client. She has IRS cutting back on use of 'threat' audit letters By CURT ANDERSON AP Tax Writer WASHINGTON - The IRS is cuning back on the use of a new letter criticized as too intimidating to taxpayers facing audits. The agency has to fix its heavy-handed wording. Two months after its inception, the .Internal Revenue Service announced Tuesday it will stop sending letters to all audited taxpayers warning that their employers, neighbors and even banks could be contacted. Beginning next week, the letters will be mailed only in situations where the IRS has tried and failed to· get the needed audit inforrnatuin from the taxpayer, said IRS Conimissioner Charles Rossotti . A rewrite · is in the works. " Many of these leuers have gone out too early and needless ly alarn1ed taxpayers in cases where the IRS had no need to contact outside parttes," Rossotti satd. The letters, in use since mid-January, were intended by Congress in the new IRS reform law to be a "fair warning" to taxpayers that the agency was preparing to use 1hese civil-contempt. She again refused to answer the questions in April last year and was tndtcted on two count< of criminal contempt and one count of obstruction of justice. Looking· directly at jurors and choking back tears, Mrs. McDougal said Tuesday her ex-husband was "a control person," had a temP-er and experienced mood swings, but would not concede at first thai he had a problem. She said he suffered from manic depression and had serious health problems. The jurors showed no expression. Some took notes; others rocked in their chairs. Mrs. McDougal described how she was in awe of her husband. trust· said she refused to answer federal grand jury questions because she feared retaliation from prosecutor Kenneth Starr if he didn 't like what she said. "The only way she was going to get out the .true story here was to tell it in a counroom," Geragos said out· side the courthouse. Mrs. McDougal and her late ex· husband, James McDougal. were panners with the Clintons in the Whitewater real estate venture in nonhern Arkansas. The McDougals and then-Gov. Jim Guy Tucker were convicted of business fraud in 1996. After that, she refused to answer grand jury questions about the Clintons and spent 18 months in jail for ed him and did not realize until their marriage hit the skids and their Madison Guaranty Savings and Loan was being investigated by bank examiners that he had a problem. When McDougal asked her to sign · a $300,000 loan to her from David Hale's Capital Management Services. she"· did not question him, she said. Hale, a prosecution witness in the 1996 trial, has claimed that Clinton · pressured him to make the fraudulent loan. Hale has served 21 months of a 28-month se ntence for defrauding the Small Busi ness Administration through Capital Management. Mrs. McDougal said she did not discuss the loan with Clinton, cumst{Jnces." Rossotti said the new policy on 1he letter more accurately" renects a longstanding IRS practice of resorting to outside contacts only if all else fails. "There's no reason to send these leners when we can work directly with the taxpayer in most cases," Rossotti said. The IRS is still working on a new version of the letter that Rossetti said will be "clearer, better-written" than the current one. Several tax professional organizations, including AIC' PA, are involved in improving the wording. The current letter says that during an audit, the IR,S "may need to contact third par11es. Third party contacts may include, but arc not limited to, neighbors, employers, employees and banks. We may use these contacts to help us detennine_your correct tax liability, identify your assets, or locate your current address." P0 WE L L 'S STORE HOURS . PEPSI & MI. DEW ~ PRODUCIS, DR. .

Cohen said all NATO planes had returned safely from the first day of strikes, and defense officials discounted reiXJrts that Yugoslavia's air defenses had hit a U.S. warplane. "There will be more to follow, unless Mr. Milosevic chooses peace," Cohen told Associated Press Radio in an interview today. "This is going to be a long effort." .One U.S. Air Force F-15 fighter jet, spewing smoke, made an emergency landing today in Bosnia-Herzegovina; next door to Yugoslavia. Army Col.

Nebojsa Vujovic, charges d'affaires for the Yugoslav Embassy in Washington, said the allied strikes had caused no serious damage to Yugoslavia's military. "But we have civilian casualties," he said on NBC's "Today" show, with 10 dead and more than 60 wounded. Cohen said those reports were unconfirmed and questioned the reliability of information out of Yugoslavia.

Doctor settles $10 million lawsuit ov'r botched l.nfant circumcision MEDINA (AP) - A suburban Cleveland doctor has settled a $10 million lawsuit over a botched circum9ision that severed the tip of an infant's penis. . The lawsuit was settled Wednesday as the case against Dr. Martha 'L, Myers of Medina and Medina General Hospital was about to go to trial, according to Medina County Common Pleas Court Judge James L. Kimbler. The terms of the settlement with Fred and Kristen Carque of Medina, the parents of Ian Carque, were not disclosed. Myers and hospital administrators could nol be reached for comment. Messages were left with the doctor's answering service and the offiee of the hospital president early today before regular business hours. The Carque family attorney, William Beyer, said the issue was never money but the opportunity for the parents to air their grief and to hold the doctor accountable. "If this was your son and I told you I'd give you $10 million for this to happen to him, you wouldn't take it," Beyer said. lan, now 4 years old, was two days old qn Sept. 23, 1994, when Myers amputated the tip of his penis during the procedure, according to the lawsuit. Circumcisision, which is often performed for religious or hygienic reasons, involves the removal of the foreskin from the head of the penis. Beyer said the impact of the injury would not be known for years. The amputated tissue. which was kept in a saline solution on ice, was reattached after the boy was rushed to Children's Hospital Medical Center of Akron. Beyer said ian's doctors have not been able to determine whether he will suffer sexual dysfunction or loss of sensation. The hospital was sued because Mycrs had no privileges to perform the surgery, yet she had performed at least three circumcisions before the Carque procedure. tures at Serb military bases and ammunition storage sites. · Cohen said NATO forces would continue hitting the Yugoslav military until M'ilosevic relents in a campaign of repression and violence against the majority ethnic Albanian people of Kosovo. . U.S. warplanes encountered little in the way of ground fire .and, in the initial waves, no launchings of surface-to-air missiles. But Yugoslav fighters took to·the air and engaged NATO planes in air-to-air combat, com. ing out losers in the first engagements. Cohen said at least two Yugoslav MiG fighters were shot down by NATO planes. On Capitol Hill, the Republican-controlled Congress followed a long-established pattern: s.upport for the troops in the field despite skepticism, at best, toward the Clinton admini~tration policy. · The House Armed Services Committee chairman~ Rep. Floyd Spence, R-S.C., expressed "deep reservations about the direction of our policy in Kosovo" although "no reservations whatsoever" about support. ing the troops . Clinton said he was "convinced that the dangers of acting are far outweighed by the dangers of not acting." He dwelt mainly on what he said would be the hazards of not acting: greater repression· by the Yugoslav government against the ethnic Albanian minority in Kosovo, a widening conflict as refugees streamed into unstable neighboring countries, and the possibility of a complete loss of Western credibility if threats made by NATO were not carried out. .Meigs County chamber officers recall group's accomplishments By JIM FREEMAN Santlnel N-• Staff As part of Chamber of Commerce Month in Ohio, officers of the Meigs County Chamber of Commerce Wednesday recalled the groups accomplishments during its I 0 years of existence. Former chamber President Paul Reed recalled the group was formed in part lhrough the efforts of Bruce Reed and the late Dave Baker. They envi~oned a county-wide chamber of com· merce, merging the Pomeroy and Middleport chambers of commerce into one group. Directors were appointed representing each village and township. That goal of a true county,wide chamber has not changed, Reed said. The chamber still seeks to represent all a~as of the county. The group focused on promoting economic development in the county and a part-time economic development director, Shields, was hired. Not long after, the first full-time economic development director, Elizabeth Schaad, was hired. The group's first major effort was to obtain a new state prison at a site near Salem Center. "We were runnin"g neck and neck with Noble County, but were denied due to lack of highways," Reed observed. The next economic . development director, Paula Thacker, helped promote the · installation of flue gas · scrubbers at the General Gavin Plant in Cheshire. The plant's owner, American Electric Power, due to a then-new requirement to reduce the emission of sulfur dioxide at the plant, was weighing the installation. of scrubbers against shipping in low-sulfur coal- which · would force the closing of its Meigs Mines. The utility eventually decided in favor of scrubbers, saving the jobs of many coal miners at the plant. The next director, Julia Houdashelt, was instrumental in implementing the Rural Enterprise Zone and in getting AEP's Great Bend site made available for economic development. In addition, Houdashelt worked to find an occupant for the Big Wheel department store, now ' the Pamilla store, was instrumental in reorganizing the Meigs County Community Improvement Corporation, · and in drawing up a strategic plan for Meigs County. Ron McDade, the next economic development director, worked with the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College, Holzer Clinic and the Meigs County Depar1ment of Human Services to establish the University of Rio Grande Meigs Center in the former Holzer Middleport Clinic. . Current director Perry Varnadoe 's currently attempt· Kim ing to locate industry to settle into .the industrial site at Tuppers Plains and is assisting in efforts to complete the U.S."-Route 33 corridor through Meigs County - currently the top item on the chamber's agenda. Varnadoe noted that over the years the chamber has helped bring approximately $114 million into the county in the form of highway and other funds. Other chamber of commerce activities include busi· ness listings, relocation packets, resource handbooks . and demographic information - all provided free of charge. In ·1995, the chamber inherited the promotion of lourism from the former park district. The tourism office, undel'•the direction of Karin Johnson, has published four brochures. In addition, the Meigs County booth at the Ohio State Fair won first place honors in .

Even backers of airstrikes by the United States and its North AtlantiC . allies conceded that the rationale for U.S. intervention was complicated, per: haps not readily obvious, · : But, said the Senate Armed Services Committee chairman, Sen, John · Warner, R-Va., "The case of inaction is unacceptable to the world." · It was a tough sale. , For every reason the administration and its congressional allies recited to support bombing Serbian military positions, contrary arguments were mounted by skeptics against a new entanglement in the .Balkans. . Once President Clinton decided .to act, the Republican-led Congress ral: lied behind him, if a little grudgingly. The Senate late Tuesday voted 58-41 in support of a resolution "autho: rizing" airstrikes that could come as early as today - and which would have occurred even without the vote. "We're coming close to starting World War Ill," said Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Aiaska. - The administration and its allies argued that failure to act now against Yugoslavia and its president, Slobodan Milosevic, could worsen a severe humanitarian crisis, accelerate Serbian acts of genocide against ethic Albanians, hold NATO up to ridicule and even spread the war to other countries such as Greece and Turkey. "This is a conflict with no natural boundaries," Clinton said Tuesday in a letter to congressional leaders asking for their lith-hour support. "If it continues, it will push refugees across borders and draw in neighboring countries. ,.. Mr. Milosevic should have no doubt about our resolve." "This is about stability in Europe," Sen. Joseph Biden; D-Del., told the Senate. · But critics said they did nol see a compelling national mandate. "Many members are now conflicted," said Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, :.R-Texas, a sponsor of legislation that would have blocked funds for the bombing campaign. She did not push her legislation in the face of the escalating crisis. , A big part of ,the problem; Clinton has done a poor job in communicating with the nation and Congress what the U.S. interests are in either Kosovo or another former Yugoslav republic, Bosnia, said former Rep. Lee Hamilton, an Indiana Democrat who is now a scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center, a· foreign policy thirik tank. . Part of this stems from Clinton's impeachment problems last year with · ~ he GOP-led Congress, Ham ilton suggested. "These things catch up with you when there's a crisis."

" I fundamentally don 't agree with this idea that disruption in the Balkans is going to cause a conflagration of some kind. in Europe." Some members of Congress have argued that the dispute in Kosovo is just the latest chapter of a civil war that's been going on in the region, in one form or the other, for 600 years. : Clinton has made a strong case to justify such ·attacks on humanitarian ~rounds, : After the Yugoslav government in Belgrade stri pped Kosovo of its auton~my in 1989, Yugoslav army troops and Serbian police persecuted the ethnic Albanians .Jiving in Kosovo. This escalated over the past year. More than 2,000 people have died and hundreds of thousands have be~n displaced in a year of fighting between the government arid rebels seeking jndependence for ethnic Albanians. Since peace talks between the Serbs and ~thni c Albanians broke down last week in France, Milosevic mounted a new lJffensive against ethnic Albani an rebels. • Critics noted that the United States did not act militarily to stop ethnic ~xtermination in cambodia or Ethiopi a or Rwanda; and did not suggest bombing Russia for ethnic repression in Chechnya. · Many lawmakers remain fearful that the air campaign could turn into another Bosnia. _ Some 6,700 American troops remain in neighboring Bosnia as part of a :J'iiATO peacekeeping force established in 1995, even though Clinton initial• ~y said the troops would be home in a year. , : In the final analysis, most members of Congress seemed willing to give I::linton the benefit of the doubt as commander-in-chief. • " In the end, I think the mood was to lock arms," House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-111., said. · .

P~ge Death Notices Gore is blowing it, but he can recoup By Morton Kondi'Kke Poor AI Gore! His moment to move into · the spotlight is drawing near and he's in danger of blowing it. !Jut he can recoup. My reading of the vice president .is that he has, among other things, a touch of Newt Gingrich Syndrome. an exaggerated sense of the grandness of his own destiny and the unfortunate tendency to let it show in public. In former Speaker Gingrich's, R-Ga., case, he thought he was Winston Churchill and he told everyone about it. He believed his own political ascendancy was about " Renewing American Civilization." , He was a gifted political strategist and orator, but after he achieved his first big success -- the Republican takeover of 1994 -- he failed (in part) beca~se he harbored an outsized sense of vanity and revealed it. · In early November 1995, he famously told a group of reporters that he'd shut down the federal government in the budget fight with President Clinton partly because Clinton didn't let him exit Air Force One by the front door on their return from the· funeral of slain Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. People began laughing at Gingrich -- even more so when it was proved that in political combat with Clinton, he was constantly outfoxed. Churchill? He seemed ridiculous . The danger is, people are beginning to laugh at Gore. It's bad enough being vice ·president; the office ("a bucket of. warm spit") is inherently demeaning. But what people are laughing about •• and they are laughing at Gore, not with him -- are his gaffes, hyperboles and exaggerations of his own place in history. The latest, of course, is the claim that when he was in Congress, "I took the initiative in creating the Internet. " Just last week, he claimed that the new Senate Republican budget was going to throw the nation into " the worst economy since the Great Depression., · After impeachment, he pronounced Clinton among lhe "greatest" of American presidents, With .farmers, he's represented himself as :) having spent his youth plowing behind a mule, when he really was at St. Albans, the Washington prep school for the well-born. What accounts for all this, 1 think, is Gingrichism; a grandiose sense of destiny and massive frustration that other people simply don't appreciate it. People have been expecting great things of Gore since he was a child. Some have hung on to him since Huvard, expecting he'd be president some day. In keeping with. a sense of destiny, he has tack· led The Big Problems; the nuclear arms race, global warming, the Information Age. Now, some people really are Winston Churchill, and AI Gore may be one of them. People laughed at and scorned Churchill during the 1930s, but when Adolf Hitler conquered Europe, the British tumOd to him, recognizing he was right about the danger. . ·Gore has this going for him and most people don 't appreciate il: In the 1980s, he genuinely was the person who invented the concept of the mobi le, single-warhead missile (later named " Midgetman") as the solution to the problem of nuclear instability created by U.S. and Soviet reliance on vulnerable .multiple-warhead missiles. Of all current politicians, Gore deserves credit for making environmentalism a major issue. He held the first congressional hearings on toxiC waste atid helped invent Superfund. Gore was among the first politicians · to put global warming and the greenhouse effect on the public agenda. It's now almost universally accepted as a matter of concern, although what to do about it is still deeply controversial. In fact, I suspect that global warming will be one of the key issues of the 2000 presidential campaign, with Republicans charging Gore would shut down factories and outlaw automobiles to deal with it. · And, while Gore certainly did not invent the Internet, he did -- as some of the Internet's real inventors attest -- help convert it from a defenseoriented research tool to a key new "inforrrtation · superhighway"; a lcflll Gore popularized and may have coined. , So this is a talented man. But he may lbse hts chanC:. to lead because he hypes himself instead of letting others do it for him. . ' He's been a loyal vice president -- too loyal, considering the messea Clinton has gotten into, of which the Chinese espionage-campaign donationtechnology transfer miasma is just the latest. The vice presidency is a handicap, which is why most polls show that despite high job approval ratings, Gore trails nationally unknown Texas Gov. George W. Bush by 20 points, Bush )s seen as·a strong leader; Gore isn't. Gore needs to step out on his own, start talking llbout where he'd lead the country, have his slaff dribble out details of his role in Clinton policieS bigger than re-inventing government and empow: erment zones -- and also stop taking himself so seriously. · .· Gore won't stay 20 points behind Bush in the ~Us as the 2000 campaign gelS real, but he ~~ have to take steps now to ensure that denstve laughter doesn't put him 25 or 30 points behind.

Thursday, Marc:h 25, 1999: , Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio Page 6 • The Dally Sentinel California, Clemson to meet for NIT championshi-p tonight NEW YORK (AP) - Tile way California coach Ben Braun sees it, there are no bad teams playing in late March. Which is why he knows tonigh(s National Invitation Tournament championship game against Clemson will call for the Golden B~ars' top performance of the season. " We played one of our better games because we pl ayed consistent throughout," Braun said Wednesday, the day after Cal took control early in the second half and beat Pac- 10 rival Oregon 85-69 in Tuesday night 's semifi nals. '"This team takes pride in its performance and wants to go out on a winning note ." So does Clemson, which blew a 24-point second-half lead, but still managed to beat Xavier 79-76 to reach the title game . "We're feeling confident right now, " Clemson first-year coac h Larry Shyatt said. "Our older players don't want it to end and the younger players are enjoying the ride. " When the Tigers (20- 14) and Golden Bears (21-1 1) meet for the f~rst time, the winner will come away with its first NIT title, For Clemson, it would be the school's first basketball champion ship in 60· years. California, meanwhile , has been· waiting 40 years. ' "Even though we didn 't make the NCAA tournament, we got selected · for the NIT and decided we would try to go out there and win it," Tigers guard Terrell Mclntyre .said. The NIT might be perceived as loser's. event, but the finalists don ' t see it that way. A win would be a fitting sendoff for the seniors as well as providing a building block for next season. For California, there's an even bigger reward for se nior starters Francisco ·Elson, Thomas Kilgore, Geno Carlisle and Michael Gill . The Not one of California's current players had played in a postseaSon game before this season. After California reversed two regular-season losses to Oregon, Elson said: "We did not want to go out with a loss. We wanted to win the championship. We want to keep playing for somethi~g. We didn't want to finish third or fourth. We just wanted to win ." Clemson may have finished 5-11 in the Atlantic Coast Conference, but winning the NIT would ease the pain of.an inconsistent season. "Throughout the season · we weren't having as much fun as we foursome came to Cal two years ago knowing the school was facing NCAA sanctions. " I'm really happy for them ," Braun said. "Tiley came to our program and they came at a tough time . Now they have an oppol'\unity to go out winners. This tournament is very important to our program and players." Two years ago, the Golden Belli'$ reached the final 16 of the NCAA tournament, but were banned from postseason play last year for an alleged illegal payment by former coach Todd Bozeman's staff to · a recruit .
