...discharge of the travel-office workers, the disappearance and reappearance of various documents under subpoena, the procurement of hundreds of FBI files, and the truthfulness of testimony about all these matters by everyone from the President and First Lady to friends and advisers like Susan Thomases and Bernard Nussbaum to low-ranking aides. Possible crimes being investigated range from an array of financial frauds in Arkansas to perjury and obstruction of justice in the White House. Starr is already presiding over so many investigations that there may have to be a separate independent counsel if Reno recommends an investigation into...
Clinton aides see the incident as a harbinger of a no-holds-barred effort to attack Mrs. Clinton after the election. Last week a federal appeals court gave Starr permission to investigate whether former White House counsel Bernard Nussbaum lied to Congress about Mrs. Clinton's involvement in hiring Craig Livingstone, the aide who obtained hundreds of FBI personnel files, including many on former G.O.P. White House figures. At a congressional hearing in June, Nussbaum denied talking about Livingstone with Mrs. Clinton.

In an account that appeared on the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal, Aldrich charged that staff members considered trustworthy by the Clintons could avoid background checks while permanent...
...temp force has mushroomed more than 85%. Yet only 8% of temps receive health benefits; pensions, vacations and sick days are virtually unheard of. In some cases, those part-time jobs are second jobs: in 1971, 20% of moonlighters were women; today almost half are. The trend, says Karen Nussbaum, who is heading a new women's bureau at the AFL-CIO, is that "more family hours are going into the paid work force now than ever before to maintain the standard of living...
