- The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, January 28, 1998 NATION/WORLD ntrns testim ny still uncetain .5,413 ThM FATION 0 x xhe Washington Post WASHINGTON - Lawyers for Aonica Lewinsky and independent .bunsel Kenneth Starr appeared closer j a cooperation agreement yesterday under which Lewinsky would testify bout whether she had a sexual rela- onship with President Clinton and wihether he urged her to deny it. Starr's staff continued Monday night 3 review the verbal offer presented by ,ewinsky's lawyers. Starr's next step, if prosecutors believe the information in le offer conforms sufficiently to the ersion of events originally alleged by ewinsky in privately recorded conver- ations with a friend, is to interview Lewinsky in detail to resolve any incon- sistencies. Her story would have to be put on paper before any plea agreement or immunity deal is reached. Lewinsky's lawyer William Ginsburg has been sparring with Starr's office for more than a week regarding his insis- tence that she be guaranteed total immu- nity from prosecution before she would put her offer in writing. Prosecutors have been equally insistent on guarantees of exactly what testimony she is prepared to give before they offer immunity. "We're still waiting" for Starr's response to the verbal offer made Monday, Ginsburg said late yesterday. "We've heard nothing. We didn't realis- tically expect to hear anything until after the State of the Union" that Clinton presented last night. On the tape recordings, Lewinsky reportedly told her one time confidant, Linda Tripp, that Clinton and his close friend Vernon Jordan, Jr. were urging her to deny the sexual relationship she said she had had with the president. Former White House intern Lewinsky, who'd been confiding in Tripp for months, also urged Tripp to lie about what she knew of the affair when she was questioned under oath by attorneys representing Paula Jones in her sexual harassment case against Clinton. Sources have said that Clinton testi- fied in his Jan. 17 deposition in the Jones case and said he did not have a sexual relationship with Lewinsky. Ten days earlier, in response to her own subpoena in the Jones case, Lewinsky provided Jones' lawyers a sworn affidavit denying it as well. If she is now prepared to testi- fy that she did have such a relationship, she gives federal prosecutors an impor- tant piece of evidence for building a per- jury case against the president. The Jones lawyers sought to inter- view Lewinsky and Tripp - both for- mer White House aides - to bolster the sexual harassment claim by demon- strating a pattern of extramarital sexual behavior on Clinton's part. Clinton orders Iraqi weapons strike WASHINGTON - President Clinton has ordered preparations for a "devastat- ing" strike on Iraq's suspected biological weapons sites to be launched next month if a last-ditch diplomatic effort fails to persuade Saddam Hussein to open his door to U.N. weapons inspectors, U.S. officials said yesterday. For the first time since the 1991 Persian Gulf war, the Pentagon also refused to rule out the possibility of using nuclear warheads to attack underground bun where the Iraqi leader may have buried "Scud" rockets and stockpiles of chemica and biological weapons. "I don't think we've ruled anything in or out," said Pentagon spokesperson Ken Bacon when asked about using a penetrating munition with a nuclear warhead on the Iraqi bunkers. "We will respond decisively with devastating force." Usually when asked about using nuclear weapons, the U.S. government rejects the possibility. But yesterday other Pentagon officials said Bacon had deliberately left open the possibility. U.S. officials emphasized that the showdown was triggered months ago when Iraq defied U.N. inspectors. "This has nothing to do with Monica Lewinsky," said a Pentagon official who spoke on condition that he not be identified. Earlier in the day, Clinton talked with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who h dispatched an aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf that could participate in attacksU what U.S. military planners have identified as stockpiles of biological weapons.

Federal authori- ties yesterday announced the indictment of 20 people accused of involvement in a nationwide scheme to falsify the citizen- ship test results of as many as 13,000 immigrants in 22 states. Federal agents began rounding up the alleged ring members in California and three other states as the indictments were unsealed by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Sacramento. It was not immediately known how many of the 13,000 immigrants who benefited from the testing fraud have already received U.S. citizenship, offi- cials said. The Immigration and Naturalization Service, which participat- ed in the investigation, said it would review each case to determine whether it should require a new test, revoke the applicant's citizenship or prosecute the person for immigration fraud. Critics of the INS said the agency has failed to take adequate measures against citizenship testing fraud and O AROUND TH Finance minister resigns after arrests TOKYO - Japanese Finance Minister Hiroshi Mitsuzuka resigned yesterday, a day after prosecutors swooped into the powerful ministry to arrest two key officials for allegedly tak- ing bribes from the banks they regulated. Mitsuzuka quit under fierce pressure from a suddenly united opposition, which was poised to extract maximum political mileage from the exposure of corruption in the agency that is charged with extricating Japan from its current financial troubles. Within hours, Mitsuzuka's own Liberal Democratic Party realized that, political- ly speaking, a human sacrifice would be needed to quell the outrage before it threatened financial stability and the campaign for the upper-house parl iamen- tary elections to be held in July. By 6 p.m. last night, Mitsuzuka was headed for Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto's residence to resign. "Hashimoto has chopped off the finance minister's head in order to save his own," said Eiichiro Suganuma, an persisted in using private entities despite evidence that they could not be properly monitored. INS Commissioner Doris Meissner said citizenship testing procedures would be overhauled in the next several months. California will not prosecute Kaczynski SACRAMENTO - The Sacramento County prosecutor grudgingly con- firmed yesterday that California will not prosecute Theodore Kaczynski since he has already confessed to being the Unabomber in a federal court. District Attorney Jan Scully said she would have liked to pursue a de penalty case against Kaczynski, but was barred by law from prosecuting him for a crime for which he has already been convicted. Kaczynski pleaded guilty Jan. 22"to 13 federal charges, admitting that he had been responsible for all 16 of the Unabomber attacks that killed three peo- ple - two in the Sacramento area and one in New Jersey -- and injured 29..
