German President Pressured Over Loan From Friend.

BERLIN -- By nightfall on Monday some 45 reporters had paid a visit to the law firm of Redeker Sellner Dahs here to examine copies of private financial documents belonging to President Christian Wulff, a paper trail made public by his legal team in a bid to save his reputation and his job. A three-year-old home loan Mr. Wulff received from a friend and had since repaid erupted last week into what the German news media are calling the ''loan affair.'' As calls for the president's resignation have grown louder, the scandal has even pushed the sovereign debt crisis off the front pages for the first time in months. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
