Baker Hearings Near End as Probe Focuses on Baker Fortunes
Washington The five month inquiry into former Senate aide Robert G. Baker nears completion with only one potential witness under consideration. Special counsel Lennox McLendon said Jack Anderson is unlikely to testify but will be interviewed again by staff. Testimony highlighted tax discrepancies on Baker’s 1959 to 1962 returns and a forged name on the 1961 filing. Baker, earning 1969 on the Senate payroll, is scrutinized over an estimated fortune surpassing two million dollars.
