Kleindienst Says Memory Faulty in ITT Case Probe
Acting Atty Gen Richard G Kleindienst told Senate panel he cannot recall details of calls and a meeting with White House aide Peter Flanigan about ITT antitrust settlements. He said memories are hazy and that Flanigan may have suggested ITT dissatisfaction but he considers the talks insignificant amid his stance on the case. The committee seeks clarity as it weighs his nomination to be attorney general.
