Ford's conscience clear on funds
Prodded by Jimmy Carter to discuss
his past campaign finances and cor
poration-paid golfing weekends,
President Ford said yesterday that no
campaign funds ever went for his per
sonal use and he is certain there was no
impropriety.
“I am certain that when the in
vestigation is completed, that I will be
free of any allegations such as I have
read about,” the President told a news
conference. "As long asimy conscience
is clear, I have no real problem.”
Carter, in turn, told reporters the
President’s declaration ends the matter
as far as he is concerned. He said he
accepts Ford’s statement at face value.
Carter was campaigning in the North
east. Met at the Buffalo, N.Y. airport
by pickets calling for an accounting of
Americans still missing in Southeast
Asia, he pledged to try as president to
send a delegation to Vietnam, Laos and
Cambodia.
The Democratic candidate said such a
delegation would try to determine what
happened to the 795 U.S. servicemen the
Pentagon says are still unaccounted for
in the Vietnam war. Carter gave no
specifics about the size or makeup of the
delegation.
Both vice presidential candidates,
Democrat Walter F. Mondale and
Republican Bob Dole, campaigned in
Pennsylvania.
Carter had challenged the president to
submit to questions from reporters
about an investigation by special
Watergate prosecutor Charles Ruff,
reportedly into whether Ford converted
political contributions to his own use
when he was in Congress.

mission meanwhile has a separate probe

entertainment for government officials,
including Ford. That investigation, too,
dates to Ford’s days in Congress.
At about noon, Ford met with report
ers in the Oval Office.
“No money ever went to me per
sonally,” the President said, referring to
campaign funds in his home country in
Michigan.
‘ ‘From any campaign? ’ ’ he was asked.
“I will say any campaign funds for
personal use, ” he replied.
Published reports have said that Ruff
is looking into Kent County, Mich., GOP
records to check whether Ford con
verted contributions from maritime
unions to his own use while he was in the
House.
Ford said • he ■ wants the matter
resolved as soon as possible.
Said the President:
“It is more important to me personally
that it be cleared up because I am very
proud of my record of personal integrity,
and I think that is more important than
any impact it might have on the elec
tion.” .
The President said he "would not
under any circumstances” question the
motivation or timing of the prosecutor’s
investigation, coming in the midst of a
political campaign.
Dole, however, has implied that the
probe is politically motivated by saying
“They are all Democrats over there” at
the prosecutor’s office.
Ford at first said he had not discussed
any congressional business while
playing golf with officers of the Ford
Motor Co. or the U.S. Steel Corp. then
corrected himself to say: “In a casual
way, of course, we might informally talk
about certain matters.”
He said House rules prohibited
members from receiving anything of
significance or substance and declared
780,000 ounces of gold at $lO9
an ounce Sept. 15 in the latest
of its series of gold auctions.
Among the 3,000 invited
participants in the meetings
here will be heads of the
world’s richest private banks.

that his golf games were “in no way a
violation, in my judgement, of any rule
or ethical standard.” r
On his swing through the Northeast,
Carter criticized Ford’s handling of the
economy, especially unemployment.
New York, where he spent much of his
day, has a 10.4 per cent jobless rate, 2.5
per cent over the national rate for
August.
“Gerald- Ford has no concern for
people out of work,” Carter told a rally
at a Western Electric plant where only
500 of a former work force of 2,800 are
still employed. •
He also noted Ford’s statement to a
B’nai B'rith convention in Washington
that he means business in opposing thir
Arab boycott of firms doing business
with Israel.
“But the administration has con
sistently opposed strong enforcement of
the anti-boycott laws now on the books,
and now it is doing everything in its
power to keep new legislation from beiLg
passed,” Carter said. '
Dole, meanwhile, told about 500
persons in Johnstown, Pa. that Carter is
a man of “facility, agility and
flexibility” because he constantly
changes positions on the issues.
In response to questions in Williams
port, 'he said 10 pages were missing
from a ledger of his 1973-74 campaign
finances reviewed by the Watergate
special prosecutor.
Tlie prosecutor inspected the ledger in
connection with an inquiry of Gulf Oil
Corp. contributions to congressional
political campaigns. The Washington
Post said yesterday that the 10 pages
had been removed by a secretary.
Dole said that the prosecutor had
asked him about the missing pages but
“they didn’t have any problems with
them.”
