At a Davidson press conference Sen. Sam Ervin jokes about volunteer witnesses in the Watergate case. He cites Martha Mitchell as a potential volunteer and recalls a minister who claims to receive divine testimony, noting the impracticality of hearsay testimony and asking the Lord to testify directly to him.
Democratic National Chairman Robert Strauss told the National Press Club that Nixon administration handling of Watergate harms the political system. Republican chairman George Bush agreed the process has suffered but said Watergate does not erase the administration’s overall record as the public grows aware of the issue.
Sen Sam Ervin Jr said Nixon will allow aides to testify on the Watergate matter expanding the Senate committees access to knowledgeable persons. He cited ground rules set with Sen Howard Baker and John Erlichman and noted witnesses will be notified in advance while daily White House business continues.
The report states Mitchell and Dean arranged cash payments to seven men convicted in the bugging raid at Democratic Committee Headquarters last June. Investigators expect indictments for both Mitchell and Dean, while Magruder cooperates with prosecutors detailing the February 1972 meeting in Mitchells DOJ office.
