PFA Creator Refuses To Give Information
SPRINGFIELD MO The questioning of Russell FE Phillips, creator of the now bankrupt Progressive Farmers Association in 1973, yielded little as he invoked the Fifth Amendment on 59 occasions. Trustee Farrington pressed for answers on business deals tied to Phillips, whose presence at the 1973 organizational meeting is in dispute. Phillips avoided details on more than 200 checks totaling nearly 560000 drawn on PFA accounts. Federal probes by SEC US attorney IRS Postal Service and Missouri AG are ongoing.
