Rebozo says Woods knew of Hughes cash to Nixon aide
In sworn deposition Charles G. Rebozo asserts the only person he told about a $100,000 Hughes campaign gift was Rose Mary Woods, Nixon secretary. He says the money arrived in 1969-70 via Richard Danner, stored in a Key Biscayne box, and later returned to a Hughes aide. He says Nixon was unaware and other White House staff unknown. IRS questioned him about a supposed $1 million fund connected to Hughes and Abplanalp.
