Nixon to reveal stance on Watergate report at hearing
President Nixon has made a decision on the sealed grand jury Watergate report but will not disclose it until a public hearing before Judge John J. Sirica on Wednesday. Spokesman Ronald Ziegler said Nixon believes he will not be impeached by Congress and that James D. St. Clair will outline the position at the 10 a.m. EDT session with Jaworski aides present. Ziegler noted Nixon spoke to Haldeman about his wedding anniversary rather than the indictment, and discussed vetoing the emergency energy bill and campaign reform measures due to Congress.
