	    Allegations Regarding Vince Foster, the NSA, and   
		Banking Transactions Spying, Part XXXVI
			  
			  by J. Orlin Grabbe

	It is sometimes said that journalists are whores.  Of course 
the statement is false:  just as *some* whores write best-selling books, 
so are *some* journalists paid propagandists.  Which brings to mind the 
relationship between the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Mike 
Wallace with respect to the Vince Foster story.

	As first reported in Part 17 of this series, four days before Vince 
Foster died, his sister Sheila Foster Anthony effected a $286,000 
(and change) transfer from an account at Mellon Bank to Vince Foster's 
wife Lisa Foster.  Sheila Anthony was at the time a top Justice Department 
official, an Assistant Attorney General, Office of Legislative Affairs, 
where her duties included liaison with Congress, clearance of bills before 
they were forwarded to the Office of Management and Budget, and help in 
selecting nominees for the positions of U.S. Attorney, U.S. Marshall, and 
Federal Judge. What was not reported in Part 17 was the identity of the 
account holder from which the transfer was made (information I wasn't 
able to obtain).  Well, here it is:  *the funds came from an account 
controlled by the DNC*.  (The evidence of the $286,000+  transfer was 
given to Kenneth Starr shortly after being reported in Part 17.)  This 
transfer occurred the same day, July 16, 1993, that Sheila Anthony called 
a psychiatrist, who later told the FBI that Anthony said Vince Foster was 
working on "Top Secret" issues at the White House and "that his depression 
was directly related to highly sensitive and confidential matters".

	Not coincidentally, Sheila Anthony's husband is Beryl Anthony--
former congressman from Arkansas, former President of the Democratic 
Congressional Campaign Committee, a lawyer for Winston and Strawn, 
one whose recent clients have included the Hong Kong Trade 
Development Council, as well as Systematics, renamed Alltel Information 
Services (whose involvement in an NSA bank spying project was the 
starting point of this series).

	Does the DNC maintain a slush fund account for political bribery?  
One suspects the answer is "Yes," but hesitates to draw this conclusion 
based solely on the $286,000+  transfer to Lisa Foster, before knowing 
what Lisa Foster did with the money.

	The evidence with respect to Mike Wallace is less ambiguous.  In 
a CBS 60-Minutes episode telecast on October 8, 1995, Mike Wallace 
claimed to lay to rest most of the doubting questions concerning Vince 
Foster's alleged "suicide".  Much of the program was devoted to attacking 
Chris Ruddy, a reporter first for the New York Post, then for the 
Pittsburgh Tribune-Review,  who specialized in pointing out the 
discrepancies in the official story that Vince Foster killed himself in Ft. 
Marcy Park on a slope near one of the civil war cannons.  In claiming to 
clear up most of the questions, Wallace forgot to mention that Ft. Marcy 
Park was then closed while an FBI team (using X-ray scanners) looked for 
the bullet that allegedly killed Foster.  Wallace interviewed James 
Hamilton, whom he called the "Foster family lawyer", forgetting to mention 
that James Hamilton was also the Clinton-Gore Transition Counsel for 
Nomination and Confirmation 1992-3, and a long-time Democratic 
political fixer.  It has since become known that Hamilton was the author of 
a memo urging that the Whitewater Investigation be stonewalled: ``If 
politically possible Janet Reno should stick to her guns in not appointing 
an independent counsel for Whitewater,'' Hamilton wrote President Clinton in 
a January 5, 1994, letter. Hamilton was recently appointed to the Foreign 
Intelligence Advisory Board.

	Now sources who over time have proven totally reliable have 
confirmed the following item that Mike Wallace also forgot to report:  
*Mike Wallace was paid $150,000 by the DNC to do the CBS 60-Minutes hatchet 
job on those questioning the official story of Foster's death*.

	Hey, Mike.  Now that we know what you are, would you accept 
$15 to do a complete retraction?

	Have a nice New Year, Mike.  That $150,000 should purchase a 
lot of champagne.

	Try not to get a headache.
