Gulf Oil money linked to Scott amid Watergate probe
A Gulf panel reports Gulf disbursed 12.2 million in illegal political gifts over 13 years, including 4 million to South Korea’s ruling party, with Claude Wild Jr. alleged to have paid Senator Hugh Scott about 10,000 annually. The panel criticizes Gulf leadership, notes Scott sought funds after Watergate publicity, and quotes Wild saying the money was for Scott’s personal use. Scott declined comment.
