Former Aide Says Gurney Did Not Want Anyone Put In Jail
Former Sen. Edward Gurney expressed a wish that none of his circle spend time in jail as a fund raising scandal surfaced. James L. Groot testified that panic hit the Gurney camp in 1973 and that organizers tried to block disclosure of activities by fund raiser Larry Williams. Williams denied working for Gurney, while Groot recalled a June 1973 warning to be cautious about attention. Williams testified he collected nearly 400000 dollars in Gurney's name from 1971 to 1973 by pressuring Florida builders.

The 11 member Senate panel may extend its work through year end as Ford weighs actions within 30 days on still secret material about CIA assassination plots. The 300 page report cites unlawful CIA domestic operations including mail openings and citizen surveillance, drug tests on unwitting subjects, long distance monitoring, and covert funding of a White House project, while most CIA activity is lawful. A Justice Dept. informal review considers applicable laws with a five year statute of limitations likely blocking prosecutions for actions in the Eisenhower through first Nixon year administrations.
