John K. Singlaub. admits to using his international contacts to channel lethal aid to the Contras. Another group. the Nicaraguan Refugee Fund. held a fundraising dinner. which netted over $200.000. Of this sum. only $3.000 went to aid refugees. while over $115.000 went for "consulting fees." We have voted several times against providing military aid to the Contras. and yet several private organizations have been funneling supplies to the Contras. despite their promises to the IRS not to do so. Twentysix of our colleagues and I recently wrote to the Commissioner of the IRS. Roscoe Egger. suggesting that the IRS review the tax status of these organizations.
