Lugar urges Reagan to appoint special prosecutor
Senator Richard Lugar calls for immediate appointment of an independent counsel and for resignations of White House Chief of Staff Donald Regan and CIA Director William Casey to revive a foreign policy crippled by Iran arms sales. He urges reviewing the entire staff while retaining those not involved, says Shultz might be kept to preserve policy continuity, and warns of swift action within days. Republican leaders meet Reagan to pressure a quick resolution as the Iran affair tightens.
