1/ednesday; July 31, 1974 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Nine Wednesday, July 31, 1974 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Nine House unit ends inquiry (Continued from Page 1) There was no immediate com- ment last night from Nixon or his spokesmen. But four hours before the committee's final vote, Treas- ury Secretary William Simon emerged from a meeting with Nixon declaring "I've never seen the President in a more positive, affirmative frame of mind." THE COMMITTEE is expect- ed to take about a week to prepare the back-up report ac- companyirg the resolution sent to the House, including dissent- ing views of Nixon's defenders. Those presidential supporters found themselves on the losing side of the votes on the three articles: 27 to 11 on the first, 28 to 10 on the second and 21 to 17 on the third. The size of the bipartisan edge on the first two articles has caused even some of Nix- on's staunchest defenders to concede t h at House impeach- ment is a strong possibility. Republican Sen. John Tower of Texas, for example, said yes- terday the White House view that the issue will never reach a Senate trial "is a singularly unenlightened one." HOUSE DEBATE is exp2:ted to start in mid-August and last about two weeks. If impeach- ment is voted, congressional leaders hope to begin a Senate trial in late September. The charge that Nixon evaded income taxes and used federal funds to improve his California and Florida homes was :efeat- ed 26 to 12 after two hatrs of sometimes acrimonious debate. The committee rejected by the same margin an attempt to cite the secret bombing of Cambodia as a fourth impoeah- ment article. THIS DECISION came a curs after it had adopted 21 to 17 the third article on Nixon's de- fiance of the panel's demands for evidence. In all, the panel had togg:d 35 hours, 46 minutes in the opwn phase of its deliberations. Rep. Edward Mezvinsky (1f- Iowa) offered an article ctmrg- ing the President "knowingly and fraudulently failed to -eps-t certain income and claimed de- ductions . . . on his federal income tax returns which were not authorized by lair." - REP. CHARLES Sandman (R- N.J.) argued . "there is abso- lutely no attempt to defraud" in the President's tax returns. "You cannot be held for fraud R if you rely on the advice of an attorney and that's what Rich- ard Nixon did." "I'm thoroughly convinced," said Mezvinsky "that the evi- dence justifies-indeed it even demands-that the President be called to account for the matler of how he handled his fei-al tax returns." The tax article was b-sed primarily on findings that be- cause of improper deductions for the tax years 1969 through 1972, the President was liable for $432,787 in back taxes acid penalties. Nixon subsequently agreed to pay the amount. The third article was submit- ted by the committee's secund ranking Republican, Rep. Rob- ert McClory of Illinois, who said Nixon's defiance of subpoenas for 147 taped conversations was "the prime example of stone- walling." It was the only one of the impeachment articles sponsored by a Republican. The Cambodia proposal mark- ed the first time all 17 Repub- licans voted against an im- peachment article. Rep. Hamilton Fish Jr. (R- N.Y.) said "the fact is, we in the Congress share responsibil- ity" for keeping the facts of the Cambodia bombing from the American people. Rep. M. Caldwell Butler (R- Va.) noted that congressional leaders were told about the bombing but did not pass the information to other members of Congress. All 17 of ?he Republicans op. posed the mnution and were joined by nine of the Demo- crats, including chairman Peter Rodino. The C'ambodia article was of- 'ered by. Rep. John Conyers (D- Mich.) and charged Nixon "or- dered and ratified the conceal- ment from the Congress of the facts . . . of the scope and nature of American bombing operations in Cambodia." Conyers said Nixon "unilater- ally took action against another sovereign nation, then denied to us and the American people that he had done so."

While in isolation, the patient is allowed visitors and is check- ed by a registered nurse every half hour, Kambly claimed. The psychiatrist termed this approach "innovative" and add- ed "I don't believe it's fully understood by those who have inspected the center." ALTHOUGH admitting that the facility's educational pro- gram at the time of the doc- tor's inspection- last spring, he said that two accredited teach- ers are presently employed at the center. "1 now think our academic nrogram is up to snuff," Kam- blv said. In response to charges of rampant drug abuse at the in- stitution, Kambly said that be- cause the residents are not "in- carcerated" that they have as much access to illegal sub- stances as anyone else living in. the city. A STAFF member, who con- ducted a tour of the facility aft- er the press conference, said that the patient's rooms are regularly inspected and that in- coming residents are searched upon arrival. Allegations of improper bill- ing procedures raised by the Senate subcommittee resulted from a bookkeeping system de- vised by Kambly and the gov- ernment subsidizing the bulk of treatment costs at the facil- ity, the director said. The Civilian Health and Medi- cal Program for the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS), an agen- cy operated through the Penta- gon, paid the center over $.S million last for services pro- vided for dependents of mili- tary personnel. -CHAMPUS will cut off fund- ing as of August 26. to addi- tion the agency no longer covers medical costs incurred at insti- tutions not recognized by the Joint Committee for Accreda- tion of Hospitals. The University Center was refused accredation following an inspection last March, but Kambly has requested a re- evaluation which is scheduled for late September. If the Joint Committee finds the center's program adequate, CHAMPUS might resume fund- ing of the facilIty. Kambly, however, said he will keep the institution open in any event.
