V- Mother 3f To? phootnpfc ihoan bncrifl and dunra TuJ tm I -v Ex-adviser to Reagan HUD target The Associated Press WASHINGTON The Department of Housing and Urban Development is seeking to recover about $700,000 from a former Reagan campaign adviser and his partners in a Georgia project and also has a dispute with them over another development, a HUD official said yesterday. The decision to ask the partnership to forfeit about $700,000 is a reversal of an unusual decision made earlier this year at HUD headquarters that has piqued the interest of congressional investigators reviewing allegations of political favoritism at HUD during the Reagan administration. The department now will seek repayment from the owners of the Cypress Mill Plantation in Brunswick, including Edward Weidenfeld, legal counsel to Reagan's 1980 campaign and an adviser to his 1984 re-election effort Neil Zittrauer, HUD's housing chief in Atlanta, said he hoped to reach agreement with the owners on the Brunswick project and would consider legal action if he can't Weidenfeld, a Washington lawyer, declined comment when contacted at his office. HUD auditors questioned more than $750,000 of the project's costs, alleging a construction company in which two of the partners were principals was not entitled to some profits and overhead it received and that the partners had not invested enough of their own money. But R.

Hunter Cushing, a deputy undersecretary at HUD headquarters, earlier this year reduced the amount to $88,000. "It just came out of nowhere," Zittrauer said of Cushing's decision. "It obviously was the result of some meeting between the developers and people at headquarters." Cushing left HUD when the Bush administration took office and was named to a Commerce Department post But he resigned that job after he refused to testify before the congressional review. Three other former agency officials, including former HUD Secretary Samuel Pierce, also have refused to testify. Zittrauer said he was informed by Austin Fitts, the department's new assistant secretary for housing, that she supported the results of the audit and that the money should be recovered.

"They apparently realized that what we had done was consistent with department guidelines and policies," he said.

He said as he went to sec about the occupants in the station wagon LeBert was driving, he saw a woman being restrained by a police officer. He said he heard her scream, "Oh no, dear God, don't tell me she's dead."

"It was a big cloud of dust and glass flying all over the road," she said, "and the next thing I know her car went up into the air and landed on its side." "Her car flew by me and then the next thing I know I saw a car in front of me," she said. "I couldn't get out of my car because the door was jammed and I wanted to get over to my daughter's car. "Well, with the impact there was such a cloud of dust and debris that I couldn't see her, I couldn't see the car at all. It was all dirt and dust and it looked like glass flying and at that time, I didn't see the car that hit her," Mrs. Walsh testified.

"He hit her so violently that he sent her car up in the air and down on its side and it slid down the road approximately I SO feet Then it hit a curb and it uprighted," she said. After she was able to get out of her car, Mrs. Walsh said, she started over to where her daughter's car had come to rest, but was stopped by other people at the scene. "Someone called to me and said, 'Don't go over there, Mrs. Walsh said.

After Assistant Ocean County Prosecutor John J. Foti Jr. completed his questioning of Mrs. Walsh, Public Defender Kevin Young told Superior Court Judge Donald F. Campbell he did not plan to cross-examine her.
