Nixon ordered handling of Watergate investigation
Walters recounts a secondhand briefing in which Nixon asked Gray to remove anyone involved. Gray agreed and Nixon told Gray to proceed with the investigation. Walters describes contacts with Haldeman Ehrlichman and Dean, who discussed using CTA funds to aid the burglars, an idea Walters refused.

Pentagon plans big military manpower cuts feared to harm readiness
The coming year could reduce total active forces to 2,076,800, the smallest in 25 years. Navy leaders warn a 9 percent cut could save ships and shutter up to eight major installations, including a shipyard. Army and Air Force officials caution similar cuts threaten combat divisions and squadron strength, with further installation closures likely.
