...elect was to give the go-ahead for a multimillion-dollar civil-racketeering suit against, among others, the D.N.C. The suit would primarily target disgraced former Teamsters president RON CAREY and other Teamsters officials for allegedly embezzling nearly $1 million in cash from the union. But it would also cite top Democratic fund raisers, including TERRENCE MCAULIFFE, who was recently appointed chief fund raiser for Al Gore. A federal probe into Carey's 1996 election as union president found that he and representatives of the D.N.C. set up an illegal contribution swap scheme in which the Teamsters would contribute...
...search for heroes, and Moses, rebel and saint, is as relevant today as he ever was. He is a metaphor for our times, proof that a single flawed human being can be chosen to change the world. Is it any wonder then that the great and the small cite him for inspiration? Martin Luther King Jr. evoked him in his thunderingly prophetic speeches.

The Crimson displays a severe double standard; a good number of the council presidential and vice-presidential candidates have ties to a wide variety of student groups, but the Crimson staff does not cite those ties as hindrances to those candidates' effectiveness. It seems that among liberals, bias against religion may be one of the last acceptable prejudices. ADAM R. KOVACEVICH...
Administrators cite the upcoming conclusion of the Capital Campaign as one of the reasons for the increased payout. Provost Harvey V. Fineberg '67 said, "A lot of people have contributed a lot of money, and I think it will be very helpful to be able to point and see how that money is having an effect today." While we agree that major University donors such as Katherine B. Loker and Sidney R. Knafel '52 deserve to see the fruits of their generosity, the University should take its spending cues not from individual donors but from the needs of students...
