Nixon Denies Senate Request
Judiciary Committee Asks Dean’s Testimony
WASHINGTON OP)—The Sen
ate Judiciary Committee voted
unanimously Tuesday to invite
White House counsel John W.
Dean to testify at its hearings
on L. Patrick Gray’s nomination
to be FBI director.
President Nixon has said he
would not permit Dean to appear
for questioning about an investi
gation he conducted for the Pres
ident of the bugging of Demo
cratic headquarters at the Water
gate complex here last June.
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-
Mass., told newsmen that hope
fully Nixon will reconsider. But
Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va.,
another committee member, said
it appears “the President already
has closed the door” to Dean’s
testimony.
Byrd, the assistant Democratic
leader, said that if Nixon is un
willing to let Dean appear, he
should withdraw Gray’s nomina
tion.
However, Sen. James O. East-
land, D-Miss., the committee
chairman, said he is confident
of approval of Gray’s nomination
regardless of whether Dean ac
cepts the invitation to testify.
The committee met after Sen
ate Democratic leaders made
speeches protesting the sweep of
President Nixon’s assertion of
right in barring testimony by his
aides before congressional com
mittees.
Elsewhere, in a court proceed
ing, subpoenas were issued for
Dean and six other present or
former Nixon administration of
ficials to give pre-trial deposi
tions in a suit brought by Com
mon Cause. Common Cause seeks
to force disclosure of certain in
formation about financing of the
Nixon re-election campaign.
In the Senate, Democratic
Leader Mike Mansfield of Mon
tana joined Byrd in urging Nixon
to reconsider the policy he set
forth Monday of not permitting
any members or former members
of his personal staff to testify
before a congressional committee.
The President said this policy
was in line with well-established
precedent and was necessary to
preserve the Constitutional sep
aration of powers, but he said
he would arrange through in
formal contacts between his staff
and congressional committees to
provide “all necessary and rele
vant information.”
Mansfield said he recognizes
there must be “a degree of con
fidentiality between a President
and his advisers,” but he de
clared any assertion of executive
privilege must “not spread too
far, too wide, or too far back.”
Byrd said he was particularly
disturbed by Nixon’s “precedent-
Galbraith Testifies For Ellsberg
LOS ANGELES <A>) — Former
presidential adviser John Kenneth
Galbraith testified it is “incon
ceivable” that criticism of U. S.
ambassadors and policies in Viet
nam contained in the Pentagon
papers could have harmed na
tional defense interests.
Galbraith, testifying in defense
of Daniel Ellsberg and Anthony
Russo at the Pentagon papers
trial, said that criticisms in three
volumes of the papers are in the
best tradition of America’s “open
society.”
“The United States is an open
society where a wide variety of
matters are discussed every day,
many of them critical of our gov
ernment,” said Galbraith, former

U. S. ambassador to India.
. . We do not conclude because
many of the comments are critical
of the government that they are
damaging to the national de
fense.”
The comment by Galbraith
came after he read to jurors
several Pentagon papers pas
sages which criticize U. S. offi
cials’ actions in Saigon between
1963 and 1967.
The passages showed that
Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge
supported efforts by the South
Vietnamese government to silence
criticism by the American press
corps. One passage quoted Lodge
as saying, “The United States
press should be induced to leave
the new government alone. . . .
Extensive press criticism at this
juncture would be disastrous.”
Turning to the jurors, Gal
braith said, “Generally, these
comments are criticisms of our
ambassadors, who should not be
immune to criticism. . . . Since
this goes on in the United States
every day, I cannot think that
the addition of the statements in
these volumes would appreciably
have affected the conditions of
our affairs in Vietnam or else
where.”
The tall, graying Galbraith
added that not only was the ma
terial useless to an enemy by the
time Ellsberg and Russo copied
it in 1969, but it probably also
was of little use if released “con
temporaneously,” when some
events happened, in 1964.
“Five years later,” he said, “I
certainly think this information
is, in every sense of the word,
harmless.”
Galbraith, now a Harvard pro
fessor of economics, was the third
adviser to President John F.
Kennedy to testify in defense of
the men accused of stealing the
Pentagon papers.
All three witnesses have dis
puted the government’s conten
tion that Ellsberg and Russo en
dangered the country by stealing
valuable secrets.
Ellsberg, 41, and Russo, 36, are
charged with espionage, conspir
acy and theft for copying in 1969
20 volumes of the Pentagon study
of the Vietnam war. Although
the papers were released in 1971,
the indictment involves the copy
ing, not the release.
Galbraith, McGeorge Bundy
and Arthur Schlesinger Jr., sup
ported defense contentions that
the papers were of no value to
an enemy. Schlesinger and Gal
braith added that the papers
were of value to the American
public and should have been re
leased earlier.
A defense spokesman said Gal
braith will be followed to the
witness stand by Melvin Gurtov,
author of part of the Pentagon
study. Another Kennedy adviser,
Theodore Sorenson, is expected
to testify later.
Cong Infiltrating Vietnam
To Break Agreement, Says U.S.
WASHINGTON hP) — North
Vietnamese troops and materiel
have infiltrated into South Viet
nam in apparent violation of the
Paris cease-fire agreement, gov
ernment intelligence sources said
Tuesday.
Administration spokesmen re
fused public comment when asked
about reports that Hanoi has sent
men and heavy equipment into
the South, but other officials
acknowledged privately there is
evidence of such infiltration.
However, these sources could
not or would not estimate the
number of men nor the volume
of materiel that have crossed the
frontier, although they said the
figures are not yet very large.
The Pentagon and other ad
ministration officials have ac
knowledged reports that some
30,000 North Vietnamese troops
have moved down the Ho Chi Minh
trail into Laos.
In addition, other sources re
port more than 300 tanks have
come down a Laotian supply trail
as well as several large artillery
pieces, armored personnel car
riers and large quantities of
ammunition.
State Department spokesman
Charles W. Bray said the situ
ation reached such a point “in
the past several days which led
us to express our concern to the
other side.”
“We have been and continue
to watch this very closely and
with some concern in the context
of articles VII and XX of the
agreement signed in Paris,” Bray
said.
Those provisions prohibit the
reintroduction of troops or ma
teriel into South Vietnam, except
for a one-to-one replacement of
worn-out supplies.
They also ban any foreign na
tion from engaging in military
activities in Cambodia and Laos
and call on those nations to
“totally withdraw from and re
frain from reintroducing into
these two countries troops, mili
tary advisers and military per
sonnel, armaments, munitions and
war material.”
