Gov. Moore denies taking $25,000 contribution
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) Gov. Arch
A. Moore Jr. denied yesterday ever meeting
with, talking to, or accepting a $25,000
political contribution from Theodore R. Price
in 1972. -
"I never had a thing from Mr. Price in my
life,” Moore testified as he took the stand on
the eighth day of his U.S. District Court trial.
Moore and his former aide, William Loy, are
accused of conspiring to extort $25,000 from
Price, president of the Diversified Moun
taineer Corp., in exchange for help with a
state bank charter.
The 53-year-old two-term Republican
governor spoke firmly and looked directly at
the Jury, using his hands often for emphasis
as he answered questions from his attorney,
Stanley Preiser. ,
"1 had no telephone conversations with Mr.
Price whatsoever,” Moore said. I had no

He said he met Price in 1971 when the DMC

Levi, in a written
statement, said he wants final
answers on whether the FBI
played any role in King’s
death and whether anyone
should be prosecuted for the
bureau’s “systematic
harassment” of the civil
rights leader. -
He said the department’s
preliminary investigation
reached these “tentative
conclusions”:
“There is no basis to
believe that the FBI in any
way caused the death of Dr.
King.”

“Instances were found
indicating that the FBI un

program of harassment of Dr.
King in order to discredit him
and harm both him and the
movement he led.”
But Levi said he wants the
expanded investigation to
answer “four specific
questions” about the bureau’s
connections with King.
Whether "there is any
evidence that the FBI was
involved in the
assassination”; whether its
investigation of the murder
was "thorough and honest”;

whether any new evidence on
the assassination has
developed; and “whether the
nature of the relationship
between the bureau and Dr.
King .calls for criminal
prosecutions, disciplinary
proceedings or other ap
propriate action.”
The Senate Intelligence
Committee concluded that
FBI director J. Edgar Hoover
considered King a dangerous
radical and kept him under
close wiretap and bugging
surveillance. It said the
bureau harassed King con
stantly and once sent him an
anonymous letter suggesting
he commit suicide.
