WASHINGTON (/) - Coigres'
first official Watergate report
concludes that the CIA amd its
two top chiefs were "unwitting
dupes" in supplying disguises for
such improper acts as the burg -
lary of Daniel Ellsberg's psy-
chiatrist's office.
Rep. Lucien Nedzi (D-Mich.)
said "it is a little' more diffi-
cult" to assess the CIA's resis-
tance to being used to cover up
the Watergate in the first weeks
after the June 17, 1972, break-in
at Democratic party headquar-
ters.
Nedzi is chairman of the
House intelligence subcommittee
which issued the report yester-
day.
Nedzi said "I'm personally
troubled by the inconsistencies''
in testimony by Vernon Walters,
deputy director of the Central
Intelligence Agency, on whether
he suggested a Cuban rather
than CIA involvement could be
used to cover up the break-in.
"But by and large :here was
resistance on the part of the
CIA to becoming involved,"
Nedzi said at a news conference.
"There is no objective evidence
thatpthere was a willingness to
cooperate."
The 23-page r e p o r t quotes
Walters as first testifying to the
subcommittee last May 16 that
when former White House Coun-
sel John Dean III first pressed
him for ideas he said: "Perhaps
the Cubans who were anti-Castro
might have had a hand in it but
the CIA did not."
Thereport said that is "in
sharp contrast" to Walters' testi-
mony to the subcommittee last
June 29 that:
"Ie (Dean) then asked if I
had any ideas and I said that
this affair already had a strong
aCuban flavor and everyone knew
the Cubans were conspiratarial
and anxious to know what the
policies of both parties would be
toward Castro. They, therefore,
had a plausible motive for at-
tempting this amateurish job . -
"Dean said he agreed that this
was the best tack," the report
said.
Nedzi said he was not accus-
ing Walters or any other witness
involved in conflicting testimony
of perjury.
Chairman F. Edward Hebert
(D-La.) of the full House Armed
Services Committee said the CIA
as an agency "resisted every at-
tempt to involve it" in the -over-
up.
"The CIA is absolutely clean,"
Hebert said.
The report also said that Dean
put "tremendous pressure" on
the then acting FBI director, L.
Patrick Gray, as well as Walters
to hold off investigating the first
evidence that campaign contri-
butions for President Nixon were
involved in the Watergate break-
in.
Dean called Gray some 25

ALL-OUT OFFENSIVE FEARED:
South Vietnam claims entry
of North Vietnamese troops
I(
SAIGON (Reuter) - Elements
of three North Vietnamese di-
visions have re-entered South
Vietnam in preparation for a
new offensive, the South Vietna-
mese military command said to-
day.
A command spokesman said
units of North Vietnam's fifth,
seventh and ninth divisions,
which had withdrawn to neigh-
boring Cambodia after taking
part in last year's offensive, had
been spotted in Tay Ninh and
Binh Long provinces bordering
Cambodia.
EARLIER yesterday the com-
mand repeated President Ngu-
yen Van Thieu's view that North
Vietnam might launch an all-out
offensive against the South early
next year if preventive measures
were not taken.
The spokesman, Col. Le Trung
Hi en, told, a briefing here there
were indications that the offen-
sive might take place but he
could not predict where it would
be directed or how intensive it
would be.
Answering a question, Hien
said: "To say that Saigon would
be threatened is not exactly true,
but it would also be optimistic
to say it would not because Sai-
gon is only about 60 miles from
Tay Ninh and Binh Long pro-
vinces."
HIEN ALSO said the govern-
ment based its forecast of a Com-
munist offensive on information
on new Communist infiltration
of men and war materials from
both North Vietnam and from
neighboring Cambodia.
A government spokesman, Bui
Bao Truc, said yesterday South
Vietnam would accept a request
that trade unions from the Com-
munist side be allowed to com-
pete with labor organizations in .
South Vietnam with a number of
-conditions, including the with-
drawal of some 300,000 North'
Vietnamese troops from the
South. The request was made
here Monday by the Vietnamese
Confederation of Labor.
"The Viet Cong must first stop
its efforts to topple the legal gov-
ernment of South Vietnam,"
Truc said. "It must also put a
stop to violence and to is de-
pendence' on North Vietnam for
war materials."

VIENNA, Austria (A" Bo.ios ied
by the United States and the
Soviet Union clashed yesterday at
the opening session of the confer-
ence on reducing troops and wea-
pons in Central Europe.
East and West Germany, side
by side around the green nego-
tiating table, were the main
speakers. Both were represented
by ambassadors.
WOLFGANG Behrends of West
Germany told the delegates they
should take account of the "dis-
parities and disequlilibriuns" be-
tween Eastern and Western forc-
es. The Soviet Unixi and its al-
lies have more men and tanks
in the area than the Western
powers, he noted.
Moreover, he added, it is eas-
ier to bring reinfor, cments from
the Soviet Union than from the

es demand it.

"These negotiations," he said,
"should therefore aim to ulti-

The United States and 'ts al-
