Newspaper ROBERT L. WINGEIT Publ'-her Hobart Wlleon Jr. Executive Editor . - . - . . ~ Washington is getting· to feel like early stage of·the Watergate era 'By MIKE FEINSILBER Aasoclated Prsss Writer WASHINGTON -As Washing10n insider Steve Hess stepped out his front door to pick up his newspaper the other morning, an old thought came into hts head: '"I wonder what the paper has on them today." '"11lem," to Hess, is the Clinton crowd, caught up in an unfolding mvestigation that is captivating Washington- even if the rest of the coun!l)' seems indifferent. _ Hess, a Brookmgs Institution scholar who.worked for Presidents Eisenhower and Nixon, recalled that during the Watergate era he'd eagerly pluck , Tile Washington Post from his lawn. wondering about the latest twist. Watergale was a long time shaking out, too, and bewildering in the process. , A lot of similarities tie Washington's atmosphet:~; in the spring of 1997 to the spring of 1973. There are big, big differences;too. lllen, and now. the mvesllgation involved a re-elected president and the mea~s used to re-elect him. The issue was pressed by investigators in Congress controlled by the opposition party. · And the developing story seemed slowly to overshadow everything else. The govem~ent governed, legislators legislated, courts ruled, agencies regulated. But Watell!ate loomed over everything. And while scandal was unfolding on the front page of Steve Hess' newspaper, the coun!l)' showed little interest. Katharine Graham, publisher_of The Washington Post, recalls in her memoirs that in 1972 one of her deputy managing editors telephoned newspaper Jriends around the country, trying 10 drum up inte~st in the Post's big sto;ry. Mrs. Graham recalls thinking. "If this is such a hell of a story, then where ·is everybody else?" . . . : Not until Sen. Sam Ervin gaveled televised hearings to order in May 1973 ;did.the ~ountry tumble to an absorbing drama. · . • And today? · · With Sen. Fred Thompson's hearings still in the offing, "The coun!l)' is 1811!ely saying, 'I don't care about that,"' independent pollster Andrew Kohut said. "11lere is no profound sense of, 'Oh. my God, did that really happen?"' . "It is like a lot of other Clinton 'scandal' stories: It doesn'tlook good. but there is nothing so wrong about iLd).at people are ready to condemn the 'president and think the worst about him. They just see it as Clinton stretchJOg things," Kohut said. "The American people seem to have a-thick skin ays." tergate started with the arrest of five burglars at Democratic headl!uarters. Almost until the day of his resignation, Richard Nixon insisted upon illack of knowledge or involvement. Twenty-six months of tension passed ~fore the "smoking gun" emerged, tape on which the president was heard ~onspiring to thwart the FBI's investigation. · In the Clinton fund-raising affair. there is less mystery about the prcst· dent's role: Clinton w~ after all. the host at those Whne House coffees. : The gut issue is whether favors were perfonncd for favors rendered. Cliojon's memo approving hospitality for generous donors - "Ready to start pvcmights right away " - is hardly a smokrng gun. · - , The Watergate scandal involved only Nixon & Co .. not Congress.

UNDER THE DOME Lee Monks, the "taKpayer advocate" for the Internal Revenue Service, got II harsh reception when he came totestify on Capiiol Hill last month. Such is the fate of IRS officials who dare to venture before Congress at tax time. With cameras rolling, lawmakers grilled Monks on why the IRS 's refonn allempts have been an uucr failure So far.

Congressmen at the hearing wanted to know why Monks dido 't come to them with legislative sollttions that might help IRS offictals straighten out the mess. But Monks worries that congrc.'sional meddling might make a bad situation even worse. Insisting that IRS oflicials are "very serious'' about reform, Monks told us, "One of the problems, from my perspe~ live, is ... new -legislation can •!If more complexity to the process.

L •>~o A.alclc:1 Time S~.ticacc Mil Cit· a~on S)'ftlhe~ By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers : Since cigar smoking seems to be gaining popularity, the public should be aware of the potential consequences. My father had a cigar in his mouth from my earliest memory. When my mother died. in 1965 and Dad came to live with us, we made it clear that no smoking was allowed in our house. His breath was terrible, and his car smelled like a sewer. He often said he "wasn't smoking" because the cigar wasn't always lit. In 1972, he had surgery to remove part of hi> lip, which was cancerous due to constant contact with cigars. A few years later, he died from lung cancer. Please continue educating the publfc, Ann .

The following improvements have been -proposed: . . IRA Expansion: .Deductibility limits for deductible IRA contributions woul.d be increased for active participants in employe(,sponsored retirement plans in 1997, 1998 and 1999. After 1999. the bill would repe.al limits on IRA deduction s, so everyone . would be able to make a $2,000 deductible contribution. (Please not~ that under .the bill, the deduction limit would be coordinated with the employee contribution limit on employer sponsored pl~ns? which currently is at $9,500.) Addilionally, the : $2,000 contribution limit would be indexed for inflation in $500 increments. Deductible IRA For Non Working Spouses: Nonworking spouses • would be able to make .the maxi mum deductible contribution of $2,000; regardless of whethet the spouses are participants , in an employer plun. · · · IRA Withdrawals: Distributions would ·be made tax-free and exempt from t~e 10 percent with<)rawal penalty if used for business start-up expenses of an individual or his/her spouse , long-term ~nemployment or post-secondary education expenses of the. individual, spouse or dependent child. IRA Plus Nortdeductible AC\:ounts: These · new accounts would feature nondeductible contri·butions tied to the limit for deductible IRAs. Any qualified distribution from an IRA Plus account · would nol be included in gross income and would not be subject to the 10' percent early withdrawal ·.penalty after nve years. The bill also provides the ability for regular IRAs. to be converted 'int o Plus IRAs. However, individuals would l\e required to pay income taxes on previously deducted contributions and corresponding earnings. Improving the IRA .has been a priority of economists and legislators for a decade, and the new RothBreaux proposal has been receiving iremendmis bipartisan support .
