CLOSING arguments were expected to
last at least until today.
There is nothing wrong in fund raising,
or in being a politician, Schlesinger said,
"but this is a case of whether the defend-
ants violated the law in raising campaign
funds to expend on field offices and put
a cash hoard away for the 1974 re-election."
Former Gurney fund raiser Larry Wil-
liams, one of 105 witnesses to testify in the
case, said he collected nearly $400,000 in
Gurney's name between 1971 and 1973 by
shaking down builders for as much as $30,-
000 apiece.
"YOU don't give sums like that away in
return for nothing," Schlesinger told a 12-
member jury and four alternates.
"Why charge a conspiracy? Why lump
everybody together?" Schlesinger asked.
"Because it's impossible for a single in-
dividual like Larry Williams to go out in the
State of Florida and do what he did with-
out the help and assistance of other peo-
ple . ."
Williams was hired as fund raiser in Jan-
uary 1971 because he was "sharp, aggres-
sive and they knew he could do the job -
raise as much cash as possible in the short-
est period of time," Schlesinger charged.
