Senate leader backs barring state officials from receiving grants they administer after a Long Lines Ltd. request for 500000 in Community Economic Betterment Account funds faced a conflict of interest. The Audubon Democrat reports Attorney General Tom Miller advised against the grant due to potential self dealing. Board members defer a second grant involving ISU lean beef research and Garst Seed Co. linkage pending AG clarification.

Democrats reject campaign charges focus on health
Iowa Democrats rejected campaign finance violation charges as Dukakis allies in Iowa shift to health issues. Spokesman Donn Stanley said the ad attacking Dan Quayle and Bush's judgment was appropriate and funded from proper sources. Mahaffey had filed a complaint with the FEC about the more than $4,000 spent on the ad.
