Nixon before he became president, the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Com mittee said Wednesday. persons in those nations. He said the mail files on prominent persons included single letters in some cases and a series of letters in others. Later in the day, the panel agreed unanim ously to ask Nixon to testify in its wide-ranging probe of improper activities by U.S. agencies. “These names were never on the CIA watch- list, so it is obvious that in the opening of mail they have gone very far afield indeed. ■ '-my State z.ip m Maine residents please add 5% sales tax. Chairman Frank Church, D-Idaho, said committee members felt Nixon himself was the “best witness ’ in a number of areas, including questions surrounding the short-lived Huston plan to give intelligence agencies sanction to break the law at times. Church turned to James Angleton, the CIA s former counter-intelligence chief, to ask why the agency found it necessary to open the letter to Nixon. “I would say it was very much in error, Ang leton replied.

Earlier, Church disclosed that in June 1968 the agency opened and read a letter, which commented on Nixon s prospects in that year’s presidential election, written by Nixon speechwriter Raymond Price while traveling in the Soviet Union. But Angleton insisted the overall operation had been valuable. He cited leads it provided in the still unsuccessful pursuit of Kathy Boudin, a woman allegedly seen running from an explo sion which destroyed the Greenwich Village bomb factory of the Weathermen, a radical lef tist group, on March 6, 1970. And Church said that one of his own letters, written to his mother-in-law from the Soviet Union, was included in correspondenee found by his committee’s staff while probing the CIA mail-opening operation — a project which was begun in 1952 and not closed down until Feb. 15, 1973. “When we went back through the mail prog ram letters we found she had written from Mos cow 30 to 40 letters to people in the United States, Angleton said. “These were the only leads the FBI had. She’s still a fugitive. It raises in anyone’s mind the question of whether she’s iri Moscow. But Church said the program’s value must be balanced against the harm it did to the constitu tional rights of American citizen. Church’s first statement on the matter Wed nesday morning offered no detail but implied a wider scope to the mail surveillance than he later outlined. The possibility of calling Nixon by subpoena to testify was raised by Sen. Gary Hart, D-Colo., who said the former chief executive was the best source as to whether his administ ration indulged unlawful domestic spying. In part he said, “We want to know why the CIA opened the mail of organizations such as the Ford Foundation, Harvard University, and the Rockefeller foundation or why mail to and from persons such as Federal Reserve Chairman Ar thur Burns, Rep. Bella Abzug, Jay Rockefeller, Martin Luther King Jr., Richard Nixon himself, Hubert Humphrey and Edward Kennedy . . . should have been regularly opened and scrutinized by the CIA.” But Vice Chairman John Tower, R-Tex., said after the decision was made in closed session that the panel did not wish to “escalate the rhetoric and possibly provoke a court case by issuing a subpoena. A Nixon lawyer, Herbert J. Miller Jr., said he would not speculate as to whether Nixon would appear before the committee voluntarily. Miller said he would meet with the committee’s coun sel to discuss the matter. Associated Press WASHINGTON — AFL-CIO President George Meany told Congress Wednesday it can reduce un- employment to between 4 and 5 per cent next year by enacting organized labor’s $21 billion job-creating prop, ram. The program includes public works projects, ex panded public service employment, tax cuts, federal aid to both private industries and cities and closing of tax loopholes. Sen. PeteV. Domenici, R-N.M., said it was the first time anyone had suggested unemployment could be so dramatically reduced by such a spending program. The nation’s unemployment rate was 8.4 per cent in August. Reducing that to 4 to 5 per cent means the creation of between three million and four million jobs. The Ford administration projects a decline in the unemployment rate to between 7 and 7.5 per cent by the end of 1976. The drop would result in the addition of about one million jobs. Meany said labor’s program would increase tbe fed eral budget deficit for fiscal 1976 to between $90 billion and $95 billion, but added that the size of the deficits should not he the major concern in the budgets. “I’m here to ask you to measure it in terms of people, instead of dollars,” Meany told the Senate Budget Com mittee. The budget committee is taking testimony prior to recommending a final 1976 budget to the Congress. Con gress already has enacted a preliminary budget that limits the deficit to $68 billion, compared with the Ford ad ministration’s deficit of $60 billion. Meany, however, expressed disappointment with Congress’ first attempt at budget-making, and accused it of being “hypnotized" by the White House. ‘The congressional budget represented little more than an endorsement of the administration’s priorities — five solid years of massive unemployment," he added. Meany did not outline the 11-point program in de tail, but said it included restoring the nation’s railroad track and track beds at a cost of about $2 billion. It also calls for extending the 1975 individual tax cuts through 1976. Although he previously had disclosed the program, Meany’s testimony Wednesday marked the first time he forecast such dramatic employment results by late 1976. Chairman Alan Greenspan of the President ’s Council of Economic Advisers told the committee Tuesday it is possible that new spending programs might reduce un employment, but he said the chances that it might also set off serious new inflation are too great to justify the risk.

The aide later withdrew that statement, saying he had misun derstood committee investigators, and Church himself confirmed the narrower version. Church said that all the letters intercepted by the CIA were either sent from Communist Bloc countries or mailed from the United States to Also on Wednesday, Nixon was ordered by a federal judge to answer questions under oath in a civil suit brought by former national security aide Morton Halperin, who was wiretapped for 21 months. Nixon’s attorneys said in that instance they would check with the former President to see if he wanted to appeal the ruling. 11 fI) r» iA '.f>i 1976 AGGIELAND Class Picture Schedule SENIORS & GRADUATES FRESHMEN Sep 22-Sep 26 Sep 29-0ct 3 Oct 6-0ct 10 N-S T-Z FISH MAKEUPS Oct 13-0ct 17 Oct 20-0ct 24 Oct 27-0ct 31 Nov 3-Nov 7 Nov 10-Nov 14 A-F G-K L-0 P-S T-Z Nov 17-Dec 19 MAKEUPS FOR SENIORS AND GRADUATES JUNIORS AND SOPHOMORES Jan 19-Jan 23 Jan 26-Jan 30 Feb 2-Feb 6 Feb 9-Feb 13 Feb 16-Feb 20 Feb 23-Mar 12 A-G H-M N-R S-V W-Z MAKEUPS FOR SOPHOMORES AND JUNIORS ONLY Dress: Civilians — Coat and Tie Coeds — Optional Corps (Fish & Soph) — Class A Winter Corps (Jrs. & Srs.) — Midnights ALL STUDENTS SHOULD BRING THEIR FALL SEMESTER FEE SLIPS.

In the 48 Kours before the shot was fired at Ford, Mrs. Moore hinted to police what was on her mind. Police inspector Jack O’Shea said he talked to her by telephone on Saturday. “A red light went off in my head, he said, when she men tioned going to hear Ford speak. Authorities confiscated her .44- caliber gun and detained her until the chance to kill Ford at Stanford slipped by. Monday morning, Mrs. Moore drove off as usual about 8 a.m. to take her son Frederick to a private school 15 miles away. Then she drove 45 minutes across the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge to Danville, where she purchased a nickle-plated .38- caliber Smith and Wesson Chief Special for $145 from Mark Fernwood, a gun collector. Then, she later told a police of ficer, she rushed back along the freeways to San Francisco struggl ing to jam some target bullets — known as “wad cutters — into her revolver. At about 3:30 p.m., Mrs. Moore pointed her newly purchased gun at the President as he emerged from the St. Francis. An ex-Marine named Oliver Sipple deflected her aim, and the President was not in jured. AGGIELAND FLOWER & GIFT COME IN 209 UNIVERSITY OR CALL 846-5825 FOR YOUR SPECIALLY DESIGNED CORSAGES AND MUMS.
