GRAPEVINE, Page 13A Mystery Without an Ending
By DAVID ELLIS
Despite objections from some of his staff, Iran-Contra
independent counsel LAWRENCE WALSH plans to end his six-year
investigation into the scandal and thus leave a number of key
questions unanswered. The special prosecutor favors closing out
the inquiry before it becomes a partisan issue in the
presidential campaign. But Craig Gillen, Walsh's deputy, wants
to pursue allegations that former Secretary of State George
Shultz was regularly briefed by a top aide on secret
intelligence material about hostage negotiations. Walsh's
decision also means it is unlikely that any legal action will
be taken against Donald Gregg, U.S. ambassador to South Korea.
Gregg was national security adviser to George Bush, then Vice
President, during the arms-for-hostages swap and has long been
identified as a top target of the probe.
