Overdrafts Linked to Bert Lance Relatives Prompts Inquiry
Senate Governmental Affairs Committee heard a staff memorandum detailing overdrafts by relatives of Bert Lance at First National Bank of Calhoun Georgia during 1974 and 1975. The funds, ranging from 100000 to 300000, were repaid with interest after bank examiners spotted them. The memo urged further review before Lance’s confirmation as budget director, amid questions about Lance finances. The memorandum based its figures on phone exchanges with Robert Bloom and the US attorney's office.
