Prosecutors question Foley's wif WASHINGTON (AP) - When federal prosecutors wanted to find out what was going on at the scan dal-ridden House post office, they went to the top. Not to Speaker Tom Foley, but to his wife. Heather Foley has run her hus band's congressional office for 23 years — without pay. As her hus band's stature has increased, so has her influence. Mrs. Foley's recent appearance before a federal grand jury pushed her into the harsh glare of public scrutiny that has fallen on Congress as its multiple scandals widen. It also touched off speculation that she was under investigation, prompting the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia to issue a letter last week stating that she "was neither a subject nor a tar get" of the investigation. Mrs. Foley is a widely known and warily regarded figure on Capitol Hill, a puzzle and a pow er, shy and reclusive, feared and resented. "What's wrong with her is she is the boss' wife," said one House Democrat. "Nobody couldgoto Foley and say, 'Heather'sdoiJj wrong by you.' That's whathap- pens when you have a spouseiiv volved in your office. Theothei staffers just cannot betray (hi spouse of the speaker." That congressman declinedte be identified by name, as did near ly everyone else interviewel about Mrs. Foley. Since her marriage to thi young Democratic congressmai from Washington state, Heathe: Strachan Foley has been her has band's chief of staff. NATIONAL LIBRARY WEEK at Sterling C.
