Parr, once second in command, testified under oath about ordering actions related to the probe.

Senate edges toward compromise on depletion tax bill
The Senate debated a large tax-cut package with a proposed $29.2 billion reduction, while a $19.9 billion plan from the House and a $16.2 billion option favored by President Ford lingered. Amendments aimed at repealing the depletion allowance faced multiple votes, including Hollings and Cranston proposals, with filibuster threats and divided support. The chamber signaled openness to compromise, but overall repeal of the 22 percent depletion allowance remained unlikely without reconciliation in conference.

Victoria Coe and the veil of wartime romance in Moscow
Victoria Coe rose to People’s Artist of the Russian Federation Republic amid a frail blond romance with Tate an American naval attaché in Moscow. Five months after their brief affair Tate was ordered out of Moscow, VE Day 1945 saw their child named for victory. Zoya’s later espionage case ended in death, later commuted to 25 years, and released after Stalin’s death. Victoria planned to depart for the United States saying she hoped to leave soon after years of waiting. She had sought a three month visa last October but faced refusals “through channels.” She stated she had long been prepared to go.
