Sataurday, September 8, 1973 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Three Saturday, September 8, 1973 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Three Agnew defense may try to limit action WASHINGTON (Reuter). Vice President Spiro Agnew may take legal action soon to try to stop or limit any legal proceedings against him growing out of an investigation into alleged kick- backs on building construction in Maryland, it was reported yes- terday. At the same time, the Vice President was portrayed as hav- ing put President Nixon on no- tice that, whether he is indict- ed or not, he intends to fight alone any effort to force his re- signation. THE VICE PRESIDENT is scheduled to speak today in St. Charles, Ill. He is expected then to discuss the Watergate affair but not his. own problems stem- ming from an alleged kickbacks investigation, which concerns the time when he was governor of Maryland from 1966 to 1968 be- fore becoming President Nixon's running mate. The Baltimore Sun quoted Ju- dah Best, one of the Vice Presi- dent's lawyers, as saying that a court injunction might be sought to try to block "leaks" in the press about various aspects of the investigation or to have the case thrown out altogether on the grounds that "constant dis- closures" had eliminated t h e chances of a fair trial. Best said no final decision had been made but that some court action might come soon. BOTH AGNEW AND NIXON have publicly blasted disclosures about the ,investigation and at Nixon's direction, the Attorney General, Elliott Richardson; is conducting a probe into charg- es that the "leaks" have come from the Justice Department or official of the U.S. Attorney's Office working on the case. Best said that leaks of al- legations made to prosecutors about Agnew appeared to be de- liberate and systematit. He add- ed he would like to see the court issue an order providing for con- tempt proceedings against the informers before any evidence is presented by the prosecutors to the Baltimore Grand Jury. Counsel said he had no con- fidence that the Justice Depart- ment would be able to maintain the traditional secrecy of the Grand Jury proceedings. SYNDICATED columnists Row- land Evans and Robert Novak said that the two-hour private talks which Agnew had with the President at the White House last Saturday amounted to a de- claration of political independ- ence from Nixon and a deter- mination to oppose any attempt to force him from office.

Communist-led insurgents kept up a murderous shelling of the city of 70,000, Kampong Cham, and many houses reportedly were in flames. Thousands of residents fled the city. Field reports confirmed by the Cambodian command said that in suburban and residential areas controlled by the insur- ' gents, residents were being taken away "into the jungle." THE GOVERNMENT said its troops recaptured the university complex and other important parts of the city, about 50 miles northeast of the capital of Phnom Penh. Reports from the city varied, but the situation appeared to leave the mostly residential sou- Pathet Lao-Laotian Gov't draft accord thern sector of Kompong Cham in the hands of the insurgents, who on Thursday had controlled three-fourths of the city. The government claimed yes- terday, the fourth day of fierce combat that has included street- to-street fighting, that it con- trolled major sectors of the pro- vincial capital's northern sector. The area is the vital core of 'the city and includes the post of- fice, power plant and the gover- nor's mansion. IN ADDITION to the university area in the northwestern sector, the government troops reoccu-' pied the hospital and central market place, according to the command's chief spokesman, Col. Am Rong. He said fresh government troops arriving by helicopter and river convoy were thrown into the battle. Two battalions of the reinforced Cambodian army units fought their way into the city from the airport to the north. "The situation is improving," the command spokesman said. However, casualties were re- ported to be heavy on both sides. The Cambodian command de- clined to give statistics on either military or civilian dead and wounded. It is estimated that 9,000 gov- ernment troops are fighting in Kampong Cham against an in- surgent force of an estimated 5,000 to 8,000.

Pathet Lao Chief Negotiator Phoun Sipraseuth told reporters here that Pathet Lao would do its best to restore peace and re- conciliation in Laos, but added that there would be "no more of- ficial meetings to discuss t h e draft agreement. "IF WE MEET AGAIN, it will be for signing (the agreement)," Phoun said. There was no immediate com- ment from the Laotian govern- ment on the draft agreement. The Pathet Lao and the .gov- ernment have also agreed on a number of measures to be taken which include the organization of elections at various levels in the administration, according to the draft agreement. THE DRAFT AGREEMENT said both sides also agreed on the demarcation of zones oc- cupied by their respective armies and to respect an in-place cease- fire. Other points in the Pathet-Lao text of the draft agreement deal with the setting up of a mixed- commission to coordinate activi- ties of both sides in the imple- mentation of the ceasefire ac- cord.
