Panel questions report in Meese hearing
A Senate committee seeks the reason a report by two Office of Government Ethics officials, shown to Meese's lawyer and the White House, was rejected. The ethics officers testified as hearings resumed, with ethics director David H. Martin overruling staff findings to claim Meese complied with ethics rules. Characteristics of the issue include Meese's ties to financial supporters and the ideological clash of Reagan's second term.
