Adams says inexperience led to imprudent inquiry actions
Sherman Adams testified that more experience might have kept him from what he called imprudent inquiries on behalf of his friend Bernard Goldfine. He said he was ignorant of rules when told that the SEC and FTC violated them in response to his questions about Goldfine's affairs. He denied seeking improper favors and noted he tightened contacts between the White House staff and agencies two years ago to avoid such implications.
