Wednesday, October 31, 1973 I-HE MICfiiGAN DAILY Page Three Congress' f claims CIA irst report involvement L TONIGHT New World Film Coop -presents- 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 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Volume LXXXIV, No. 48 Wednesday, October 31, 1973 is edited and managed by students at the University of Michigan. News phone 764-0562.

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."
