GRAPEVINE, Page 9Never Put It in Writing
By JANICE CASTRO
Just what was in those notes that got CAP WEINBERGER
indicted last month for committing perjury and obstructing the
congressional investigation of Iran-contra? Since Weinberger's
handwriting is virtually unreadable, the Iran-contra committee
had to persuade his former secretary, Kay Leisz, to translate.
One note supposedly read, "McFarlane called re price of HAWKS
for Israel." Said another: "McFarlane called re HAWKS and TOWS
for Israel." Both could refer to illegal arms transfers to Iran
in 1985. Said a source who has reviewed some of the notes:
"Jeez, it sure looks bad." But he adds optimistically, "There
is substantial ambiguity."
