LAWYER: GRAMM AD CAN'T USE BOY SCOUTS

A Boy Scout must be trustworthy and loyal - but not too political.

That's the message from the Boy Scouts of America to the GOP presidential campaign of Texas Sen. Phil Gramm.

David Park, an attorney for the Boy Scouts, sent Gramm's campaign a letter asking the senator to stop using photos of the Boy Scouts in campaign literature.

A recent campaign pamphlet shows Gramm with a saluting Boy Scout. This could be mistakenly interpreted to mean that Gramm has the organization's political support, Boy Scouts spokesman Richard Walker said Monday.
