U.S. Seeks Perjury Probe in Four Percenters Case
A federal grand jury will consider perjury charges against Warren L. Stephenson, a former DC Republican officeholder, for testimony before a House inquiry into the four percenters. The inquiry questioned his demand for a 4 percent fee to aid a California munitions firm, with clashes in testimony and a berating remark from Rep. Hardy. Stephenson, who moved from Los Angeles in 1944, held multiple DC Republican posts and briefly held a White House pass linked to Eisenhower's inauguration arrangements. The pass was reportedly surrendered in June. The closed-door hearing occurred that June, with the record only released Sept. 9.
