NYT Refuses To Take Back Agnew Blurb
NEW YORK 6P) _ The New
York Times was asked again
Wednesday to retract editorials
critical of Gov. Spiro T. Agnew,
Republican vice - presidential
nominee, but the paper refused,
a Times official said.
Harding F. Bancroft, the
Times’ executive vice president,
said George W. White Jr., Ag-
new’s campaign manager and
lawyer, stated he felt Agmew
had been libelled and the Times
had taken a “dishonest action.”
Bancroft said he told White he
disagreed. Bancroft said White
did not threaten to file a libel
suit.
THE TIMES published one edi
torial Saturday, a second Tues
day and a third Wednesday crit
icizing Agnew in connection with
a real estate purchase and with
directorship of a bank while
holding office in Maryland. The
Times said Agnew’s activities
presented conflicts of interest and
made him unfit to be vice presi
dent.
In its Wednesday editorial, the
paper said, “The Times une
quivocally rejects the charges of
libel.” It said Agnew’s denial of
conflict-of-interest charges “un
derscores his inability to per
ceive the ethical judgments de
manded of persons in high posi
tions of public trust.”
THE TIMES said it did not
accuse Agnew of violating the
law, but only suggested “that he
failed to act with sufficient sense
of propriety in maintaining the
essential distance between public
office and the very possibility
of any private gain that might
be derived therefrom.”
Agnew commented in St. Pe
tersburg, Fla.: “I had a great
deal of respect for the New York
Times and when they came out
and endorsed me for governor in
1966 I thought they had some
sense.
