Senator Ervin urged the committee to demand White House aides testify before voting on Kleindienst's nomination as attorney general. He argued executive privilege does not shield aides from congressional inquiry in public records cases and accused the Nixon administration of overextending the privilege. Ziegler and Timmons were named as possible witnesses, amid renewed calls to reopen hearings after a Life magazine probe and a memo cited by Jack Anderson.
