Scott dodges questions on Gulf gifts in deposition
Sen. Hugh Scott of Pennsylvania disputed sworn testimony that he received a Gulf 6431 Corp retainer and did not deny cash payments of 10,000 a year from a Gulf lobbyist. Wright’s deposition notes payments from 1973 through 1975 and a shift to biennial 5,000 cash disbursements, with Scott denying corporate funds and labeling the term retainer as inaccurate. He defended his past statements about funds supporting campaigns or office matters and said he would stand by them.

A group of 25 Democratic House members filed a federal suit accusing Commerce Secretary Morton and Interior Secretary Kleppe of aiding an illegal Arab boycott against U.S. firms with Israel ties or Jewish ownership.
