Brezhnev on Watergate MOSCOW - Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev says he doesn't care much about Watergate, but the continuing scandal appar- ently moved him to hold his first press conference since taking power nine years ago. In the sessions with reporters yesterday, the Communist Party chief brushed aside suggestions that Wat- ergate might influence his summit talks in Washington with President Nixon next week. "It does not enter my mind to think of whether Mr. Nixon has lost or gained influence because of the affair," Brezhnev said. His U. S. visit starts Monday.

WASHINGTON h(41A frustrated John Connally, apparently cut off from ready access to President Nixon, plans to resign soon from his White House post, Texas political sources here reported yester- dav. Since joining the Nixon staff May 10 as unpaid, part-tine adviser, Connally has had only two private meetings with the President and, the sources said, their once-close relationship has become somewhat strained. CONNALLY IS SAID to have complained to friends that the White House staff operation, in the wake of Watergate-related resignations, was a "screwed-up mess" and that he could not function effectively. One source, personally close to the former Secretary of the Treasury, said Connally was likely to quit the White House by mid-July. It had been understood at the outset that Con- naly intended to serve as a Nixon adviser for 60 to 90 days. THE WHITE HOUSE said yesterday Connally hopes soon to embark on a 60-day trip around the world with his wife. Deputy press secretary Gerald Warren, saying Nixon values Connally's advice, insisted the two men have "a very close relationship." On Tuesday morning, it was learned, Connally phoned friends in Texas to express satisfaction with the way Nixon's temporary new economic policy, announced Wednesday night, was shaping up. The former Democratic governor of Texas, who became a Republican last month, was said to have indicated there would be no export con- trols on farm products-an important consideration with wheat and cotton interests in his native state.
