Saxbe Takes Over At Justice Department
William Bart Saxbe becomes the 70th attorney general, vowing to keep politics in the department and limit public access to officials' contacts.

Saxbe plans to modify Richard son's transparency rule on written records of outside views on cases, arguing some senators fear public disclosure would hinder state interests.
