Nixon irritated at indignities and transition funds cut
Nixon, hospitalized with a lung clot, protests government actions he says deny him the privileges of his predecessors. A Senate subcommittee cut his transition expenses from 850000 to 320000, while a House panel proposed 398000. The panel also trimmed travel, communications, and miscellaneous budgets and rejected a vault for White House tapes. Nixon, irritable, faces limits on staff duties and access to Camp Pendleton golf, as hearings approach on presidential documents.
