April 15, 1976, UPI - The Bakersfield Californian, page 48, Nixon, industry metals deal told,
WASHINGTON (UPI) -- Columnist Jack Anderson reported today that during 1973 President Richard Nixon pressured the General Services Administration to sell off strategic metals to industrial allies of the Nixon White House.
In his syndicated column, Anderson said the official Nixon administration explanation was that the strategic stockpile was no longer needed for the nation's security. But Anderson said his investigation shows the real motive was to reward friends in the metals industry.
Acting on Nixon's orders, the GSA sold more than $3 billion worth of the metals to industrial giants such as Alcoa, Bethlehem Steel, Englehardt Industries, General Electric, Kaiser, Reynolds Metals, U.S.Steel and Westinghouse, Anderson reported.
He said the National Security Council has studied the situation to see if the stockpile needs to be replenished in light of the sales, Anderson said that, though incomplete, the NSC study recommends that stockpile levels be increased for certain critical materials.
Anderson said some of the metals were sold at "bargain basement" prices, and must now be purchased back by the government at "premium" prices.
Anderson said "witnesses" have told him that Nixon aides called former GSA chief Arthur Sampson and pressured him to sell the stockpiled metals to White House friends. But he said Sampson has denied receiving any pressure from the Nixon White House on this matter.

MONTPELIER.VT. (UPI)—The proposed B1 super-bomber is being overpriced, overrated and oversold, according to Sen. Patrick Leahy. D-Vt.
Leahy said yesterday its construction would weaken, rather than strengthen, the nation's defenses and make the U.S. more vulnerable to the Soviet Union.

April 15, 1976, AP - The Bakersfield Californian, page 48, CIA thwarted NYC bombings, says Laird,
NEW YORK (AP) -- Plots to kill masses of people with bombs in New York City and to assassinate elected officials in the United States have been thwarted by CIA infiltration of terrorist groups, former Defense Secretary Melvin Laird says.
Writing in defense of the Central Intelligence Agency, Laird also credits American intelligence with saving the nation billions in defense costs and, since 1973, with keeping peace between Israel and Egypt.
Laird's article, "Let's Stop Undermining the CIA," was written for The May Reader's Digest, the magazine for which he is senior counsellor for national and international affairs.
Laird did not identify the specific targets of the thwarted assassinations.
He wrote; "On at least two occasions, the CIA has forestalled assassins bound for the United States with orders to kill elected public officials.
"It has also thwarted plans to kill prominent American Jews with letter bombs."
He said the attempted bombings in New York City coincided with a visit of former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir March 4,1973.
He said, "police rushed to busy midtown intersections and hauled away two cars with enough Soviet-made explosives to kill everybody within a 100-yard radius. The terrorist explosives were timed to detonate at noon, when streets would be most crowded."
Laird said that again in 1973. just before Christmas, 'the CIA learned that six small, hand-carried Soviet SA-7 missiles — extremely accurate against low-flying aircraft — are being smuggled in Libyan diplomatic pouches to Black September terrorists in Europe, The terrorists planned to shoot down a 747 landing in Rome. However, acting on CIA intelligence, European governments disrupted the operation and spared the lives of hundreds of holiday travelers."
Laird maintained that disclosures of intelligence activities by congressional investigations are compromising and paralyzing the agency's ability to function.
"For instance." he writes, "disclosures that the United States has used submarines in Soviet territorial waters to monitor Russian weapons tests have greatly diminished the flow of this vital intelligence."
"During the past 25 years, " he continued, "the Soviet Union has not developed a single major new weapon without our knowing it well in advance. Without such knowledge, we undoubtedly would have wasted untold billions preparing to counter threat which did not actually exist,"
As for the Middle East situation since 1973. Laird says U.S. intelligence has kept Israel and Egypt continuously informed of each other's military status. "Given proof that neither is about to pounce on the other, the Arabs and Israelis have been willing at least to try to devise a formula for Middle East harmony. Our intelligence has bought the necessary time."
Laird maintained the CIA took a bum rap by what he described as an allegation that it "jeopardized public health by conducting biological-warfare experiments in New York City subways."
He said the fact was that the experiment was an Army operation — not CIA — and that it involved placing a harmless powder in a subway and measuring how far it was wafted down the tunnel. The purpose was to assess the vulnerability of the transit system to sabotage, he said.
Laird was unavailable for comment today.

....if only we could be certain that the hidden things Woodward and Bernstein bring to light are really the facts. Unfortunately, we cannot test them dispassionately.
The authors tell us that they talked to 394 sources, some of them repeatedly, in the process of documenting Nixon's fall.
But they do not divulge their sources, not in the book nor outside it.
....
But with the lack of footnotes and the absence of a source list---plus the denials of so many principals------the public has bur two choices. It can believe Woodward and Bernstein, taking them on faith alone, or it must reserve judgement.
