Watergate Judge Seeks Full Facts Beyond Trial
Chief U S district judge John J Sirica says others besides the seven defendants may have known large sums were spent on political espionage. He backs a Senate probe led by Sen Sam Ervin and sets $100000 bonds for Liddy and McCord as they await sentencing. Sloan testified to $199000 authorized by Magruder. Rep Patman urges Kleindienst to retire if probing Watergate proves too embarrassing.

West Germany's cabinet ordered a ban on foreign purchase of domestic stocks and required special permission for most loans abroad. Foreign subsidiaries must seek authorization to invest currencies in German facilities and 100 percent of foreign borrowings must be deposited at the central bank. The moves aim to curb speculative inflows and defend the mark amid currency pressures.
