Haig testifies on Hughes Rebozo payment before Watergate panel
White House Chief of Staff Alexander Haig testified to the Senate Watergate committee about a $100,000 Hughes to Rebozo payment. He said Nixon waived executive privilege to allow questioning and discussed prior briefings with William Simon and Leonard Garment. The panel postponed final report to June 30, sought more funding and subpoena powers, and continued probes into potential gifts or loans to Nixon’s circle.
