GOP staff cuts amid Watergate deficit reported
The Republican National Committee plans a 5 percent staff cut after a potential $1 million shortfall. Despite $3.6 million raised since January, contributions have fallen sharply, with May 15 mailings underperforming. About 39 of 135 staffers will be paid only through August 15. Top leaders, including George Bush, have taken pay reductions. The Democratic Committee argues it operates with far less. Brig. Gen. George Fatton, son of a WWII general, is promoted to major general at Fort Knox.
