Charities Face Scrutiny Over PSA Real Estate Ties
Maryland and Florida real estate investments totaling millions flow to PSA with funding from Pallottines and aid from Missionhurst Fathers of Arlington Virginia and Korean Relief of Mt. Rainier Maryland. Helen O Rourke of the Council of Better Business Bureaus questions legality and ethics of the arrangements, noting the charity's creation for business uses. Missionhurst leases an advanced IBM computer to PSA. the 1973 purchase cost 650000 and PSA pays 80000 yearly, while IBM would cost about 115000 annually. Korean Relief gave 30000 in 1972 for stock to Emptor Mailing Service, one PSA division, with its director serving on Emptor board. Korean Relief later sold its stake. Data stored about donors in PSA systems could be retrievable quickly by PSA clients.
