New allegations today against the President- the most serious ever-
The accusations are essentially perjury and obstruction of justice.
They're made in a series of secretly recorded audio tapes of a woman who
claims to have had an affair with Bill Clinton.
The woman is Monica Lewinski- who at the time was a 21 year old White House
intern.
As Scott Pelley reports, the president denies the affair.

((BILL CLINTON: I'M GONNA COOPERATE, I DIDN'T ASK ANYBODY NOT TO TELL THE
TRUTH THERE IS NO IMPROPER RELATIONSHIP THE ALLEGATIONS I HAVE READ ARE NOT
TRUE.
This story begins with the Paula Jones sexual harrassment case. In the
investigation Lewinski swore in a deposition she never had an affair with the
president. But that is not what she was telling white house co-worker,
Linda Tripp. Tripp has been recording conversations with Lewinsky in which
lewinsky admits the affair and says she was pressured to lie.
Two weeks ago Tripp took the tapes to white water independent council kenneth
starr who authorized tripp to make more recordings.
CBS News has learned that the FBI set up surveillance of lewinski at this
washington area hotel last week.
Tripp was wearing a microphone and a
tape recorder strapped to her leg.
The meeting in the bar was
photographed by several under cover FBI agents.
Starr, the independent counsel authorized the surveillance after
hearing parts of 17 audio tapes of Lewinski that Tripp recorded over the
phone. A source familiar with the tapes tells CBS News Lewinski is often
heard in tears pleading with tripp to help her cover up the alleged affair.
Lewinski allegedly says the president wants her to deny any relationship.
CBS News has learned Lewinski complains Mr. Clinton was quote-- "in
denial" about the Paula Jones case.
The women agree he should settle so
they don't have to testify in the jones case. Tripp says if she is ever asked
about whether Lewinksi had an affair she would have to tell the truth.
Lewinski begs her not to.
In tears, Lewinski suggests the women are like family. Wouldn't Tripp be
willing to lie for her family? Tripp says no.
On Saturday Mr. Clinton gave a sworn deposition in the Paula Jones case.
sources say the president's attorney Bob Bennett objected to questioning
about Lewinski and introduced into evidence a sworn affidavit from
Lewinski denying any relationship with Mr. Clinton, but the judge insisted
Mr. Clinton answer the questions and, under oath, he denied any affair.
he repeated the denial today.))
ANCHOR=Jean
Lewinski is due to be deposed in the Jones case Friday.
CBS News has learned she plans to take the fifth and refuse to comment on
whether there was an affair.
The allegatons have prompted some talk of a possible impeachment.
According to the head of the House Judiciary Committee, charges of perjury
and obstruction of justice are felonies-
According to the constitition that is grounds for impeachment.
