Shapp must repay $300,000
WASHINGTON (AP) - Penn-
sylvania Gov. Milton Shapp was
ordered yesterday to pay back
almost $300,000 in federal funds
he had been given for his brief
campaign last year for the
Democratic presidential nomi-
nation.
The Federal Election Com-
mission (FEC) ordered the re-
payment. Its investigators
found that Shapp's supporters
had made incorr

money from the
donors required by

olving nom- Shapp certified on Jan. 21, 1976
that he had done this. After an
examination of his claim, the
FEC authorized matching pay-
ments.
Htarvey argued yesterday that
if Shapp erred in accepting his
campaign committee bookkeep-
ing, so did the FEC auditors who
approved the claim.
OLDAKER SAID the audit
showed that because of the il-
legalities, Shapp actually had
failed to raise the $5,000 limit
in five of the 20 states he had
claimed.
The five states where the
problems were discovered were
Alabama, Georgia, Nevada,
North Carblina and Texas.
The general counsel's report
said that in Alabama, several
donations credited to various
employes of Winfield Manufac-
turing Co., actually were paid
by plant manager Hugh Walk-
er, who in turn was reimbursed
by the company.
In Georgia, the FEC said,
Stanley Seigle, half owner of
Norstran Industries of Atlanta,
provided the money for dona-
tions listed in the names of
some of his employes.
A SIMILAR situation was al-
leged in Texas where insurance
executive Charles Luciano was
accused of paying for donations
listed to eniployes, relatives and
associates
tn the North Carolina case,
Gus Nicholas was reported to
have provided the donations
made in the name of various
friends and neighbors. And in
Nevada several donors were
listed asnbuying tickets tota
fund-raising event when the
tickets actually were paid for
by others.
