Butz To Pay Part Of Holiday Trip Expenses
Agriculture Secretary Earl L. Butz will cover half of the Christmas trip costs to Southern Railways lodge in South Carolina with the rest reimbursed by the government to the railroad. Butz and an aide will likely be reimbursed for flights, while a state agriculture commissioners’ meeting occurred during the visit. The trip was deemed official business by department lawyers, though Butz chose to pay part of the bill to avoid impropriety.
