Nixon

'bugged'

own office

By LAWRENCE L. KNU'I‘SON
Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON—A former presidential
aide testified today that President Nixon
had listening devices installed in his of-
fices and on his telephones to record
conversations.

A White House lawyer confirmed the
account.

Alexander P. Butterfield, now ad-
ministrator of the Federal Aviation Ad
ministration, appeared as a surprise
witness at the Senate’s televised
Watergate hearings and told of the
recording devices.

[N A LETTER read to the committee, J.
Fred Buzhardt, special counsel to the
President, confirmed that presidential
meetings and conversations in the White
House have been recorded since the spring
of 1971.

Butterfield had testified that the
equipment was installed about three years
ago. He said he stood corrected by the
Buzhardt letter as to the date the recor-
ding procedure started.

Buzhardt also wrote that the recording
was a system that had been used during

the presidency of the late Lyndon B.
Johnson.

BUTTERFIELD was followed to the
witness stand by Herbert W. Kalmbach,
Nixon’s former personal lawyer, who said
he raised funds to pay the seven original
Watergate defendants, but denied any
prior knowledge of the wiretapping break-
in or the later cover-up.

Butterfield, who said the conversations
were taped for the historical record,
wound up his brief, unexpected ap-
pearance by declaring he believes the

(President “innocent of any crime or

wrong-doing” in the Watergate affair.

He said he hoped his Openness about the
recording system had not given away
information the President had planned to
use later in support of his position.

HE SAID THE devices were installed in
Nixon’s offices at the White House and the
Executive _ Office Building, and on
telephones there, in the Lincoln sitting

room, and in the presidential cabin at
Camp David, Md.

Butterfield said as far as he knows, the
recordings still exist. That could provide a
record of conversations involving the
Watergate affair which now are the
subject of conflicting testimony.

Samuel Dash, counsel to the Senate
committee, said Butterfield’s disclosure
could pave the way for a demand that
recordings of conversations between the
President and John W. Dean Ill be
produced to either corroborate or con-
tradict the testimony of the fired White
House counsel that Nixon knew of the
Watergate cover-up.

BUTTERFIELD told Dash that the way
to reconstruct any presidential con-
versa tions is obvious: “obtain the tape and
play it.”

And Dash said in an interview later that
having waived objections to Senate
testimony by Dean, he doesn’t see how the
White House could object to providing the
tape recordings to the committee.

 

56 Senate
seeks end

to suit...

sy shamans wows
KerneiStaff Writer

A resolution calling for “president
Singletary and the University ad-
ministration to terminate their civil suit
and to immediately and unconditionally
recognize the Gay Liberation Front (GLF)
as a registered campus organization,” was
adopted by the Student Senate in their July
5 meeting.

GLF applied for registration as a
student organization on Nov. 30, 1971. At
that time , UK sought an opinion by state
Attorney General Ed. W. Hancock on the
advisability of recognition.

IN REPLY. Hancock said, “it is my
opinion that the governing officials of the
University of Kentucky should reject the
application to be registered as a student
organization by the Gay Liberation Front
unless and until there is a clearcut decision
of a court of last resort directing other-
wise.”

John C. Darsie, UK legal counsel, ex-
plained that Hancock’s opinion is not
legally binding, but since he is the state's
highest legal officer, and UK is a state
institution, the opinion “can not be taken
lightly.”

ALSO COMPLICATING the matter,
according to Darsie, is the lack of
agreement among medical authorities on
homosexuality. In fact, many authorities
are unconvinced that the problem is
medical in nature, he said.

The suit was filed by the University in
December, 1972 to define GLF’s role as a
campus organization.

Concerning the proposal to withdraw the
suit, Darsie said, “The suit was filed at-
tempting to clarify certain complicated

legal issues. That being the state of affairs.
I would not see any reason, at this point, to
terminate the suit.”

...and member

absenteeism

Last night’s scheduled meeting of the
Student Senate was cancelled for lack of a
quorum.

Five senators are needed to constitute a
quorum, but only four were on hand at 6:30
p.m., the scheduled time of the meeting.

Student Government president Jim
Flegle cancelled the meeting at 7:15 pm.

Administration tightens
narcotics raid controls

By MARGARET GENTRY
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON—The Nixon
administration tightened controls
over federal no-knock narcotics
raids Monday and pledged “a
shift in emphasis” toward
protecting individual rights.

John R. Bartels Jr., acting
head of the Drug Enforcement
Administration, laid down
stricter rules for the use of no-
knock searches and forceable
entry in the pursuit of illegal
narcotics.

HE ACTED IN response to
growing complaints that agents
have abused the constitutional
right to privacy in raids on in-
nocent citizens.

“Any recurrence of such
abuses cannot and will not be
tolerated,” Bartels told a news
conference. “I cannot find words
to express my contempt for any
agent who misuses the badge on a
federal officer for any illegal

purpose.”

In addition, he said “the misuse
of that badge, the misuse of that

gun will be dealt with as sternly
as possible, as quickly as
possible."

THE AGENCY ISSUED to its
2,200 officers a lO—page statement
of search and arrest policy which
states that:

—Narcotics agents may
proceed with a no-knock raid only
with specific authority of Bartels
or his deputy.

—Agents must obtain an arrest
warrant or their supervisor’s
approval “whenever humanly
practical" before forcing their
way into the home of a suspect
and must knock and identify
themselves as narcotics agents
before making a forced entry.

-The agents must wear some
identifying emblem and should
try to take a uniformed police
officer on raids.

—On joint raids with state and
local officers, the federal rules
will govern.

-No federal agent may fire a
gun except to protect himself or
some other person or for official
target practice.

BARTELS CONCEDED that
most aspects of the guidelines

were in effect at the time of two
Collinsville, 111., raids last April
and other previous raids in which
agents are accused of terrorizing
families after forcing their way
into the wrong home.

He said key differences are the
new requirements that he or his
deputy approve all no-knock
searches, the requirement that
arrest warrants be obtained
when practical prior to raids, and
the more stringent identification
mandate.

“I don‘t know how many raids
were conducted without
warrants," he said, adding that
policy had varied from state to
state and often allowed raids
under only the verbal
authorization of a local
prosecutor.

The rules do not specifically
touch on the problem of agents
conducting raids at wrong ad-
dresses. But Bartels said the new
policy is designed to insure better
planning and stronger lines of
control so that agents will read
addresses more carefully.

Glasgow, and has urged instead
further deve10pment of
educational facilities which
already serve those areas.

Professor Gerald W. Smith of
Illinois State University made his
recommendations upon com-
pletion of a four-month study.

Kentucky’s 1968 General
Assembly authorized these two
additions to the UK system,
although funds have not been
provided.

Smith cited lack of population
in the two areas, and added
anticipated growth would not
reach acceptable minimums set
for establishment of a college.

Glasgow, according to Smith’s
report, is a “borderline”
population area, with 49,000
residents in the three counties
(Barren, Metcalfe and Monroe)
most likely to produce students
for a Glasgow facility.

“The impact of Western
Kentucky University on most of
the counties within the Glasgow
orbit,” the study said,
“significantly affects potential
enrollments in a two-year college
at Glasgow.”

Carrollton, it appears, will not
reach sufficient population in the
forseeable future to warrant the
establishment of a UK branch
there. The Smith study recom-
mends “consideration be given to
the establishment of an at-
tendance- center of the Jefferson
Community College...oriented to
the northeast section of Louisville
and its environs, perhaps beyond
the boundaries of Louisville. It
appears that this is an area of
p0pulation growth extending
along Interstate 71 noticeably
into Oldham County."

The study further recommends
“that Northern Kentucky State
College be encouraged to retain
and perhaps strengthen its
committment to its community
college operation" in order to
handle the educational needs of
the area.

The study also said the
Carrollton Area Vocational
Technical School should be
“commended for its emphasis on
post-high school offerings within
its several departments and
...encouraged to work toward
further development.”

Smith admitted both areas
show strong support and interest
in community colleges. He ad-
ded, however, trends and
forecasts regarding college
enrollments “mandate the most
careful and cautious approach to
further expansion.”

 Energy shortage here to stay;
fuel consumption must reduce

New York Times
By STEWART L. UDALL

WASHINGTON— Various
experts recently proposed
assorted remedies for the oil-auto
energy crisis. Dr. Arthur Burns
of the Federal Reserve has
suggested a horsepower tax;
Secretary Morton has urged the
states to lower their speed limits,
and Secretary Shultz has
proposed voluntary car pools. My
quarrel with such pr0posals is
that they assume the petroleum
crunch will diminish if we merely
exercise a little self-restraint and
make some modest adjustments
in our automobile etiquette. All
the available facts deny the
validity of such assumptions.

Petroleum consumption is
increasing 7 per cent each year,
and we are manufacturing and
buying a record number of new
autos this year. The official
statistics show that the US. oil
shortage is worsening daily—and
it will grow until we take drastic
action to reverse our voracious
consumption of petroleum
products. It is urgent to deter
wasteful travel now; but it is ten
times more important to initiate

sweeping changes in our whole
petroleum-based transportation
system.

What might be the first part of
such a two-step program has
been proposed by Dr. Paul W.
McCracken. President Nixon’s
first chairman of the Council of
Economic Advisers. McCracken
called for an immediate increase
of ten cents per gallon in the
Federal tax on gasoline—and an
additional tencent tax in 1974. He
reasoned that such a stiff in-
crease in the gas tax would
dampen demand by penetrating
the consumer’s “threshold of
awareness” of the energy
shortage. In all likelihood, Mc-
Cracken’s plan would curtail
unnecessary travel and help us
cut oil consumption in the near
term. However, his stopgap
measure does nothing to bring
about the structural changes in
our transportation system that
can save us from a far worse
crisis a few years from now.

Bold action is imperative. I
pr0pose that we convert Mc-
Cracken’s short-term deterrent
into a dynamo for long-run
reform. The McCracken tax (a
ten-cent Federal gas tax will
produce over $10 billion in annual
revenues) should be enacted and
allocated to an emergency
transportation fund. This fund
should be expended on a crash
program to rebuild our public

transportation systems, reduce
our consumption of oil, and avoid
our impending economic bondage
to a few nations in the Middle
East.

How would the money be
spent?

As a starter, we should sub-
sidize current intracity mass
transit systems to the point that
fares are free—or at least dirt
cheap. (This would be a tem-
porary act of equity to low-
income people who would be hurt
by the regressive nature of the

McCracken tax.)

The cities (most of which‘ are
ready for action and begging for
funds) should be given billions to
build and subsidize versatilemass
transit systems—everything
from bikeways to modern bus
systems to monorails. The
construction of cheap, pleasant
and convenient public trans-

portation would make our one-
man, one—car transportation
system obsolete. Indeed, “second
cars” would soon become an
intolerable expense. (We have
the technology—and the nearby
example of Toronto—so let no one
argue that this is an impractical
plan.)

The railroads should be sub-
sidized and encouraged to
produce a new generation of fast
trains that would shift much of
our intercity passenger and
freight traffic from highways and
aircraft to fuel-saving railways.

The automakers should be
encouraged (to the extreme of a
partial subsidy if necessary) to
bring about a swift transition to
small, lower-horsepower, 25-
miles-per-gallon automobiles.
(And Congress could do its part
by mandatory laws regulating
the weight of autos and the siie'iif
their engines.)

economy dividends to the nation
from such a program would be
enormous. '

—We would cut back the air
pollution which is choking our
cities.

—We would save precious land
by slowing down urban sprawl.

 

 

(In fact, we should spend 10 to 15
per cent of the fund on
emergency grants to cities to
enable them to purchase open
space and greenbelts that would
check sprawl and guide urban
growth.)

—We would probably save at
least 15,000 lives annually by
reducing and decelerating auto
travel.

—We would avoid the periodic
dollar devaluations that will
inevitable plague us if we become
economic satraps of the oil-
producing countries

A program of this magnitude
would get at the roots of the oil-
auto energy crisis and force us to
come to terms with our own
gluttony and waste. Last year,
for example, we burned nearly 55
per cent of the world’s gasoline.
The behemoth “American car" is
now an economic hemorrhage
and an energy disaster. Drastic
reforms are needed now. Unless
the President’s new “energy
czar” produces a program of the
scope I have suggested, hard-
ships and dislocations will im-
pinge on the lives of millions

before this decade has run its

course .

Little Olga, the darlim of the 1972 Olympics, was told by
the IGF that certain portions of her balance beam and
uneven parallel bar routines were “dangerous” and were
therefore to be omitted from future competition.

Though the ruling won’t be official until November, at
which time the Federation’s Assembly must ratify the
decision, the handwriting is plainly on the wall. Olga’s earth-
shattering routines will soon be a memory.

Olga’s crime, it seems, is her ability. She was the first
gymnast in the world to use a double backward somersault
on the balance beam. and was also the first to put together a
back somersault dismount from the top of the meven bars.
That Olga executed these revolutionary exercises is fact;
that other gymnasts are capable of the same is also fact.

New moves are always dangerous. A novice can break her
neck attempting a simple rollover; the more advanced pupil
would have trouble with Olga’s routine.

That is why coaches were put on the earth...to teach new
routines to athletes.
