Haldeman Acknowledges Approval of $90000 Sabotage Budget
H R Haldeman admitted approving a 90000 dollar budget for black projects last year but could not recall the specific projects. He denied knowledge of a 300000 dollar campaign intelligence budget tied to Watergate wiretapping and disputed earlier testimonies by Strachan and Dean. He said he learned after the break in that funds supported legal fees and family aid for defendants and avoided moral judgments about raising money. He also said he listened to White House tape recordings that counter Dean’s testimony and disputed Mitchell’s claims of keeping the President unaware of certain actions.
