White House passes kept by ex aide fuel Iran Contra drama
A former Reagan aide, David Fischer, retained a White House pass until November 1986 and used access to arrange meetings with Contra supporters. White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said he did not know why the pass remained. Meantime, Senate and House Iran Contra hearings loom with Gen. Richard Secord due to testify and questions about policy and aid restrictions. Senate panel also backs William Webster to head the CIA amid FBI-North disclosures.
