violates
zone law
(Continued from Page 1)
Scofield, who checked the build-
ing about a month ago, said at
that time Renken's office was on
the second floor.
"THE USE APPEARS to be a
flagrant violation of city zon-
ing codes," Scofield said. "Oper-
ating a city-wide rental manage-
ment business out of that build-
ing clearly violates the law's in-
tent."
The city could order Summit
Hamilton to cease operations
from the building for failure to
obtain ZBA approval before ex-
panding the offices. The city did
not take action because "we
believe they deserve a hearing,"
Scofield explained.
The matter will be heard be-
fore the ZBA, perhaps as soon as
the middle of August. The ZBA
is composed of nine members,
none of whom are city employes.
The Board, however, receives ad-
vice from municipal planning and
zoning experts.
AFTER HEARING evidence
from Summit Hamilton, the ZBA
will rule to permit or deny con-
tinuation of business operations
from the Forest Street location.
Summit ainittout has retained
Jack Becker, a local attorney to
handle the case.
The city does not intend to pro-
secute the company for failing
to get ZBA approval before in-
creasing the office space and the
board itself wil not address that
The board's opinion carries the
force of law but can be ap-
peaed in a vii tintwsuit.
SUMMT/tlAMILTON h'sat-
parently violated a second, al-
though relativelv minor, zoning
law by converting the area be
hind the offices into a parking
lot.
The zoning code requires a
parking lot cnoble of servicing
mnore than four aiutoroobiles must
hae a bittinos or concrete
surface. A lot designed for four or
less cars must he covered by
gravel'

former owners msaintained as a

WATCH THE BIRDIE-Sen. Howard Baker (R-Tenn.), left, demonstrates the time-tested old GOP theory that governmental affairs can
have their share of fun and games. Baker started snapping pictures o f witness Richard Moore as Sam Ervin (D-N.C.), right, led the Senate
Watergate Committee's questioning of Moore yesterday. Moore insisted that if any games were being played in the White House last year,
the President didn't know it.

Moore claims President was
unaware of bugging cover-up

contrary."
Before Ervin started his ques-
tion, Sen. Edward Gurney (R-
Fla.) had characterized Moore
as "the only witness with no ax
to grind," and said "realty no
other witness we are going to
have . . . has testimony more
important than yours."
MOORE- who said he often
gave Dean fatherly advice -
was asked to comment on Dean's
testimony that on March 13 Nixon
had discussed clemency offers
and hush money with Dean.
Moore said that if that had hap-
pened, he believes Dean would
have confided that to him.
Indeed, he said, a week later
Dean said he had not told the
President "any of these things."
Q. Don't you think he would
have told you that if it had come
up?
A. He was telling quite a bit.
AT THAT POINT Ervin inter-
jected he didn't think the question
wits proper. It precipitated a
quick exchange between the two
senators.
"I think that question is less
free-wheeling than about a mil-
lion I've heard in this commit-
tee room . .," said Gurney. Er-
vin replied that if Gurney insist-
ed, it was all right. Gurney in-
sisted.
Fisully, Moore said "I kind of
go along with the notion that if it
had happened he might well have
told me."
G U R N E Y ASKED whether
Dean ever mentioned that he was
going to say the President knew
about the cover-op.
A. No, sir.
Q. But there was nothing to
indicate to you that Dean knew
the President was involved in or

knew about the cover-up at Wat-
ergate?
A. That is correct.
ERVIN LED Moore through a
long chain of disclosures in the
news media beginning last Sep-
tember.
"Dean didn't do anything to
keep those people from reading
newspapers, listening to radio
and watching television?" Ervin
asked at one point.
Moore conceded that was the
case.
AND ERVIN again asked if the
news media "didn't proclaim it
to everyone who would read, lis-
ten or would watch?"
"Yes, sr," Moore said.
Ervin: You take The Washing-
ton Post, don't you?
Moore. I take two copies.
Ervin: And didn't you read one
or the other of those two copies?
Moore: Yes.
Ervin: And wasnt the thing
you were most interested in read-
ing at that thoe acreat te
relating to the Watergate? Was
anything more important?
Moore: Yes, the inauguration
was coming up. I was one of
those who believed the President
and the White House were not

involved, though it was a matter
of interest.
SEN. HERMAN Talmadge (D-
Ga.) said to Moore:
"It seems to me you were dere-
lict in your duty not to inform
the President."
Said Moore: "I'm not suggest-
ing for one moment I did not try
to see the President because I
could not get in. But to go in
with pure gossip, I did not think
that was proper or wise ...
"I was wrong in retrospect
and I am the first one to admit it.
It just didn't register that I had
enough here touching the White
House."
