WASHINGTON, D.C.: Athough James McDougal is hotly denying that he told Nightline he was President Bill Clinton's Brutus, he has not tried to refute reports that he is cooperating with the proscution in the Whitwater affair. McDougal's lawyer opposes his client's move, and wouldn't even visit prosecutor Kenneth Starr's office when McDougal began to cooperate about three weeks ago.

Hale testified in the Whitewater-related trial which delivered convictions of Clinton's former business partners Jim and Susan McDougal and Arkansas Governor Jim Guy Tucker that Clinton pressured him to make an illegal $300,000 loan to Mrs. McDougal.
