Nixon Lawyers Plan to Quash Subpoena for White House Tapes
President Nixon's lawyers likely will argue the Watergate subpoena for White House tapes is unenforceable. Judge Sirica set a 10 am Tuesday deadline for Nixon to respond, with oral argument to follow after Cox replies. The piece notes historical precedents and quotes Chief Justice Chase on presidential independence. The article also cites Sen. Ervin’s stance and shifts to a separate note on salad dressings market data.

GAO finds $24 million unlisted as Pentagon PR activities
The GAO report to the Senate cites Pentagon spending of 24 million dollars in fiscal 1972 for promotional work not in the public affairs budget. It notes the Defense Dept views public relations differently from most agencies, excluding Navy Blue Angels and Air Force Band performances as PR. Four aerial teams cost 5.3 million and five ceremonial bands 10.6 million. Fulbright cites difficulty controlling such entrenched practices while Congress set a 28 million ceiling. The fiscal 1972 Pentagon PR budget was about 22 million. The GAO warned the definition gap complicates comparisons with standard agency PR activity.
