Post Oak Village BODY DYNAMICS Page Q/The Battalion/Tuesday, February 19, 1985 Westmoreland ‘gets what he wants’ from CBS Associated Press NEW YORK — Retired Gen. Wil liam C. Westmoreland ended his $120 million libel suit against CBS on Monday, but not before the 18- week trial subjected the television network to a public and sometimes embarrassing inspection. Although the defendants were CBS and three of its employees —- t correspondent Mike Wallace, pro ducer George Crile and consultant Sam Adams — Westmoreland was in fact challenging the network’s docu mentary, “The Uncounted Enemy: A Vietnam Deception.” The network was forced to yield an internal study which found viola tions of its own standards in the way the program was produced. Crile was suspended for a year when it was revealed that he tape-recorded conversations with some sources without telling them. The network also changed its poli cies to require more involvement by big-name correspondents who nar rate documentaries, after Wallace conceded he relied to a considerable degree on the work of Crile and oth ers. “The Uncounted Enemy” charged that to avoid undercutting support for the war, Westmoreland, who commanded U.S. forces in Viet nam from 1964 to 1968, concealed the fact that communist forces were much stronger than leaders at home believed. Westmoreland denied that any in formation was suppressed or even that the earlier, lower estimates of enemy strength were wrong. He said CBS exaggerated an honest dis agreement among intelligence ana lysts, and falsely accused him of de ceiving his superiors. Ironically, the network’s exec utives originally were skeptical of the documentary’s value, but eventually had to spend many times the pro gram’s $350,000 cost to defend a story that wasn’t even new. saicf Dan Burt, Westmoreland’s at torney. “The general has wanted one thing from the beginning of the ca se,” Burt said. “He wanted his repu- tna tation back. He believes he has that now. Three months after the CBS doc umentary was aired, a TV Guide ar ticle charged it was a smear. This prompted an investigation by CBS executive Burton Benjamin, which disclosed violations of CBS’s own standards. Among his conclusions: • “There was an imbalance in presenting the two sides of the is sue,” with insufficient time given to Westmoreland’s side. • The “conspiracy” alleged in the broadcast “was not proved.” • Sources who supported Adams were not asked as many tough ques tions as those who did not. Though it acknowledged most of Benjamin’s findings in a press re lease, CBS withheld the text of the report tor a year . 18 Mexicans seek asylum after rally Associated Press EAGLE PASS — Eighteen Mexi cans who fled a violent political dem onstration remained in the United States Monday seeking refuge out of fear of police reprisal, authorities said. Most of the more than 100 people who stampeded across the interna tional bridge after Sunday’s violence had returned home, but three asked for political asylum in this country and 15 sought temporary refuge, said C.E. Cunningham, a supervisor with the U.S. Immigration and Nat uralization Service. The stampede began after gun shots left up to four people, includ ing possibly three police officers, in jured during a political rally in Piedras Negras, Mexico, authorities said. David Carmichael, border patrol agent in charge at Eagle Pass, said all but 59 had returned home by late Sunday. Two of the aliens were detained for questioning by immigration offi cials about possible involvement in shootings at Sunday’s rally, said Cunningham. Another was given permission to stay in Eagle Pass to visit his wife, who was wounded at the rtilly, Cunningham said. Meanwhile, across the border at Piedras Negras where the violence occurred, tension was running high Monday as hundreds of plain clothes federal and state police officers roamed the streets keeping gather ings to a minimum. About 2,000 demonstrators — members or supporters of the oppo sition National Action Party — had gathered to protest what they claim was voting fraud during the Dec. 2 mayoral elections, according to PAN spokesman Jose Gabriel Espinoza. Mexican state police reported three people were wounded in the violence, while Mexican municipal police reported four injuries. A U.S. immigration intelligence official, who dedined to be named, said American officials have been able to confirm only one woman and one police officer shot. The woman, 31-year-old San Juana Montes Garza, was reported in stable condi tion at the Maverick County Hospi tal in Eagle Pass. Espinoza, who earlier said dozens of the Mexicans would demand po litical asylum, was one of three or four who formally asked for asylum, Cunningham said. The immigration intelligence agent said an additional 15 Mexicans had asked to remain in the United States for tit least 30 days . Polish official links Solidarity with CIA Associated Press WARSAW, Poland — The Inte rior Ministry’s top investigator says he has evidence linking people in the outlawed Solidarity labor movement with Western intelligence opera tions, including the CIA, Polish newspapers reported Monday. They quoted Col. Zbigniew Pu- dysz as saying some Solidarity mem bers were being investigated for treason. Pudysz, director of the ministry’s investigative office, accused Solidar ity activists in Poland and abroad of cooperating with the CIA, the pa pers said. He was quoted as saying docu ments carried by Polish exile Jacek Knapik when he returned home af ter 10 years “show the ties of Solidar ity abroad with the Temporary Coordinating Commission (Solidar ity underground leadership) in Po land and ... Western intelligence Pudysz identified Knapik as vice president of the Union of Poles in Austria and said the military pros ecutor’s office is investigating the Walesa ignored the warning and urged supporters to join a 15-min ute strike on Feb. 28 to protest gov ernment plans to raise food prices. He returned to work after a four- week vacation and sick leave.

Both sides believe “their respec tive positions have been effectively placed before the public for its con sideration” and continuing the case “would serve no further purpose,” a joint statement dated Sunday said. The statement said CBS “respects General Westmoreland’s long and faithful service to his country” and never meant to imply that West moreland “was unpatriotic or dis loyal in performing his duties as he saw them.” “If that statement had been made after the CBS program had been aired, it would have fully satisfied me,” Westmoreland said later. “I got what I wanted,” he said. “I consider that I’ve won by virtue of that statement.” Without the statement, “we would be going back to court tomorrow,’ lief ■ Spend Spring MHBoaMe** Acconv 7307 \|>.ll llllrlllN lul IVIII Iik.iKyI in SlliKik.
