Nixon Mitchell memo links to ITT settlement and 1972 convention pledge
White House memo released by the Senate Watergate committee shows President Nixon and then-Attorney General Mitchell discussed the ITT antitrust settlement and a $400,000 ITT pledge to back the 1972 Republican National Convention. Colson warned the memo could implicate the president, while Mitchell denied knowledge of the pledge. The disclosure comes as Haldeman and other aides face questions and new memos surface about internal White House actions and potential leaks.
