ITT Boss To Furnish A List Of Destroyed Files

ITT chief Harold S Geneen promised the Senate Judiciary Committee a list of files deliberately destroyed in ITT Washington two weeks earlier. ITT lobbyist Dita Beard said her Washington files were shredded by ITT security agents after Jack Anderson published a memorandum attributed to her. The memo stirred questions about an out of court ITT settlement tied to a San Diego pledge for the next Republican National Convention. Geneen and former Attorney General designate Mitchell denied any link to the California pledge. A six member subcommittee was formed to question Mrs Beard who is hospitalized with a heart ailment. Senator Eastland will chair the inquiry with Senators Kennedy and Tunney and others. Geneen acknowledged some documents were shredded amid fears of public access and character attacks.
