Cutler, parked before a microphone, telling a House committee investigating Whitewater that Administration officials had done nothing wrong, really, but that they shouldn't have done it.

Pepsico Inc. officials said yesterday that they were dropping their program to repurchase the company's shares and scaling back on big investments. The executives said the company placed an unusual emphasis on one measure of the company's debt load: a market value ratio. The company's treasurer, Randy Barnes, said Pepsi wanted its total debt to be between 20 percent and 25 percent of its market value -- Pepsi's stock price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding -- plus its debt. In December, Pepsi's ratio stood at 22 percent, within the target range. Since then, the company's stock price has tumbled, and the ratio soared to 30 percent by June 11.
