Washington AP The Senate Watergate committee moves to demand hundreds of White House tapes and records under a new law boosting subpoenas. The measure, effective at midnight without Nixon’s signature, grants federal courts jurisdiction over the committee suit. The panel aims to cover about 200 meetings involving Nixon aides and key figures from the 1972 campaign. President Nixon allowed the bill to become law but criticized it as bypassing standard judicial processes.
