House Drops Agnew Request Heads to Baltimore Hearing
Speaker Carl Albert rejected any House action on Vice President Spiro Agnew’s request for a House inquiry into alleged Maryland graft. The Baltimore federal grand jury will hear evidence starting today, ordered by Attorney General Richardson. Agnew defended his innocence, denied plea bargaining, and said he would not resign. Senate Republicans urged continued inquiry as Nixon avoided pressuring Agnew. House debates continued, with Rep. Findley proposing a special committee on impeachment procedures.
