Carter says Pennsylvania congressman urged faster ouster of U.S. attorney
President Carter acknowledged a Pennsylvania congressman asked him to expedite the firing of U.S. Attorney David Marston but said he knew nothing of the congressman being a target of a Marston investigation. Bell said the move was discussed after the election and that Webster’s FBI directorship was not known to Bell. The case ties to Marston’s probe of a Philadelphia hospital tied to Rep. Eilberg's law firm and to a Socialist Workers Party suit alleging FBI spying.
