Clinton's first day includes air strike
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — On his first day in the Oval Office, President Bill Clinton said yesterday his administration would not flinch from military showdowns with Iraq following a fresh challenge. The Senate rushed approval of more of his Cabinet, but hundreds of senior positions remained vacant.
After partying into the early hours after his inauguration, Clinton spent the morning greeting thousands of visitors to a White House open house. Well-wishers waited outdoors for hours on a cold winter day for a quick
handshake and greeting from Clinton.
It was almost 1 p.m. before he paid
his first visit to the Oval Office—just a quick look around before moving on to the Roosevelt Room for a meeting with senior aides.
Clinton told them. "We just have to be dominated by high standards and clear vision, and we ought to have a good time doing it."
Meanwhile, his wife, Hillary, was checking out the Oval Office. In a break with tradition, she will have an office in the West Wing, the first time a first lady has had space there. A representative said she would be closely

involved in developing Clinton's health-care program.
Pentagon officials said two U.S. warplanes fired on an Iraqi air defense site after it turned its radar on them — a precursor to possible firing that was not clear whether it was an isolated or a calculated test of Clinton.
The new president said he was sticking with the Bush administration's
policy, which called for instant strikes against belligerent forces and measured responses to violations of "no-fly" zones imposed in Iraq by Gulf War allies.
"We're going to adhere to our pony." Clinton told reporters during a picture-taking ceremony with his staff. "We're going to stay with our policy. It is the American policy and that's what we're going to stay with."
Later, George Stephanopoulos, White House communications chief, said, "Everything right now is consistent with the previous practice, and President Clinton supports it."

Abortion foes to get no help from Clinton
he Associated Press
WASHINGTON—Abortion foes will meet today for their annual march on the Supreme Court. President Clinton will mark the day by revoking his predecessor's restrictions on abortion counseling at federally supported clinics.
"He's going to be signing a death warrant for unborn children," said Nancy Myers of the National Right to Life Committee.
Rise in retail sales boosts U.S. economy
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Lifted by strong Christmas sales, the U.S. economy is improving except in California, the Federal Reserve System said yesterday in an assessment of economic conditions facing the new administration.
Robert G. Dederick, an economist at Northern Trust Co. in Chicago, said he saw little likelihood the Federal Reserve would change interest rates.

On this day, January 22 the anniversary of Roe v. Wade your feminist foremothers have a few things to say to you:
"Every woman knows that if she were free, she would never bear an unwished-for child, nor think of murdering one before its birth." (Victoria Woodhull, Wheeling, West Virginia Evening Standard, Nov. 17, 1875)
"I deplore the horrible crime of child murder.
No matter what the motive, love of ease, or a desire to save from suffering the unborn innocent,
the woman is awfully guilty who commits the deed...but oh!
thrice guilty is he who drove her to the desperation which impelled her to the crime."
(Susan B. Anthony, The Revolution, July 8, 1869)
"When we consider that women are treated as property, it is degrading to women that we should treat our children as property to be disposed of as we see fit."
as we see fit."
(Elizabeth Cady Stanton, letter to Julia Ward Howe, October 16, 1873)
