WASHINGTON (AP) — Former President
Richard M. Nixon was counseled by a top aide in
1969 to avoid a visit to Mrs. Martin Luther King
on the First anniversary of her husband’s assassi
nation because “it would outrage many, many
people who believe Dr. King was a fraud.”
The aide, Patrick Buchanan, was a speech-
writer in the Nixon White House. He is the direc
tor of communications for President Reagan. Bu
chanan’s memo was among 1.5 million
documents from the Nixon administration made
public Monday by the National Archives.
It was the first release of textual material from
the more than 40 million documents Nixon left
behind when he resigned Aug. 9, 1974.
Missing from the newly released documents
are the most sensitive of the Nixon files — those
relating to the Watergate scandal that drove him
from office. The National Archives once before
tried to release those but was stopped by 29 law
suits filed by former Nixon associates.
The Archives, which has custody of the Nixon
materials, is expected to try again next month to
open the papers to public scrutiny.
The law requires that a notice of such release
be published in the Federal Register and that any
persons who object have 60 days to do so.
Buchanan’s memo, written on April 1, 1969,
said Nixon should observe the first anniversary
of the civil rights leader’s death by doing no more
than issuing a statement.
“T here are no long-run gains, and consider
able long-run risks in making a public visit to the
Widow King,” Buchanan wrote.“Initially, the
visit would get an excellent press but... it would
outrage many, many people who believe Dr.
King was a fraud and a demagogue, and perhaps
worse. It does not seem to be in the interests of
national unity for the president to lend his na
tional prestige to the argument that this divisive
figure is a modern saint.”
T here had been considerable discussion in the
White House about how Nixon was to observe
the assassination anniversary, which was April 4,
1969. A March 31 staff discussion, in which Bu
chanan took part, had recommended that Nixon
stop in Atlanta on a trip from Abilene, Tex., to
Key Biscayne, Fla., and have a private meeting
with King’s widow. Neither action was followed.
Throughout his administration, Nixon’s aides
often were careful about how the president
portrayed with blacks.
On July 20, 1971, Jeb Stuart Magruder.i
with the Committee to Re-elect the PresideJ
suggested that the president make plans to J
tend the baseball game when Oakland A’sf
Vida Blue would go for his 30th victory.
“As you know, of course, he is black,"111
gruder said in a memo to Dwight Chapin.tM
pointments secretary. “The president's
dance . . . could stukc .i \n\ positive id
particularly among young blacks.”
Blue finished the season without winning!
games and it was unclear whether Magru h>u
suggestion would have been followed if he jPn s
gone for a 30th victory. anp<

NEW DELHI, India (AP) — Hin
dus rioted and Prime Minister Rajiv
Gandhi pledged “tough and strong
action” against Sikh terrorists Mon
day, the day after four gunmen
pulled Hindus off a bus in Punjab
and killed 24 of them.
Police said Sikh militants killed
eight more people in Punjab state
Monday.
Sikh extremists, who want inde
pendence for Punjab, killed 14 Hin
dus in a similar bus hijacking July
25.
Paramilitary troops were ordered
to patrol New Delhi during a general
strike called for Tuesday by an op
position Hindu political party.
Strikes also were scheduled in the
Hindu-dominated states of Haryana
and Kashmir next to Punjab, which
has a Sikh majority.
Shops were closed Monday by
general strikes in towns and cities
throughout Punjab. Clashes between
Sikh and Hindu youths were re
ported in Jallundhar, but police said
no serious injuries resulted.
About 3,000 Hindus rioted and
threw stones on the edge of New
Delhi. Police fired shots into the air
and lobbed tear gas to scatter the
crowds.
Officers said they arrested 100
people for trying to block traffic on
the main road around the capital.
“There is a lot of tension in the
city, but we are keeping a watch on
things,” Said Police Commissioner
Ved Marwah, who prohibited public
gatherings for four days.
Near Parliament, police hauled
away 300 supporters of the opposi
tion Janata Party who held a non-vi
olent protest in violation of the ban.
They were released later.
Eight Hindus were wounded in
the Sunday bus massacre and the
death toll of 24 was the largest in a
single attack since Sikh extremists
began agitation for an independent
Punjab in 1982. The northern state,
India’s main agricultural area, is the
only one with a Sikh majority.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Larry
Layton, the only former Peoples
Temple member to be tried in this
country, was convicted Monday of
conspiring in the murder of Rep.
Leo Ryan, an act that triggered the
mass murder-suicide by the Rev. Jim
Jones’ followers in a South American
jungle eight years ago.
A federal jury also convicted Lay-
ton, 40, of assisting in the murder of
Ryan and of conspiracy and assisting
in the attempted murder of Richard
Dwyer, a U.S. diplomat wounded in
the attack.
Layton’s first trial, in 1981, ended
with a hung jury. He has been free
on bail and has been working in a lo
cal community under an alias.
Ryan’s murder carry maximum pe
nalties of life in prison.
Chief U.S. District Judge Robert
Peckham scheduled sentencing for
Jan. 23. The conspiracy charges and
the charge of aiding and abetting in
Layton, who admitted shooting
and wounding two dissident temple
members who were trying to leave
with Ryan, was convicted of taking
part in a plot by Jones to keep Ryan
and his party from reaching the out
side world with news of conditions at
the cult’s settlement of Jonestown in
Guyana.
