...case are waiting for Starr to issue subpoenas to six women who have already testified under oath that they did not have an affair with Clinton. Starr's goal is to determine whether anyone induced them to cover up for the President. The six were deposed by attorneys for Paula Jones as part of Jones' lawsuit against Clinton. Five of them have been responding to rumors that they had been involved with Clinton since the early 1980s. The sixth is Shelia Lawrence, widow of M.

Starr was facing more accusations last week of being too closely involved with the Paula Jones legal team. Robert Bennett, Clinton's attorney in the Jones suit, had filed a subpoena requesting Kirkland & Ellis, the law firm in which Starr still serves as a private attorney, to turn over any materials related to work it may have done on behalf of Jones.

It was, after all, the search for "other women" who could support Jones' story that brought Monica to light in the first place. And yet, even as the Lewinsky saga has strengthened Jones' public posture, it has not helped her prospects in court. Sources tell TIME that the Jones team has put out quiet feelers to see whether Clinton might want to talk again...
...appalled by the spectacle of the U.S. drowning in a sea of petty, malicious gossip. President Clinton has been a compassionate and effective leader. Return Starr to earning an honest living. Let Paula Jones gossip with her neighbors over the back fence. Encourage the Christian right to study the New Testament, not just the Old. WERNER C. STURM Scotch Plains...
