REVIEW OF FRI. PAPERS
OTHER COMMENT

ADMIN
WS Journal's Wash Wire suggests "impchment politics sets
RN increasingly against his own teammates. RN reacts to his
peril by building himself up, escalating his rhetoric. His claim
of pulling the wires in M-E tends to belittle HAK" and his statement
"Foreign ministers no longer make foreign policy has same
irksome effect. = RN put himself "at odds" w/ Burns over inflation,
and his vow of self-sufficiency clashes w/ Sawhill's caution. And
RN's refusal to give up more material "divides him and VP."
Wash Wire also says "RN maneuvers constantly to retain
conservatives' support.
He shapes legisl. stands to their
liking, = such as retaining sugar-mkting controls. But Ha hard
test arises [as] conservatives want him to veto legal-services"
and "even tougher test looms" re: summit. RN "dares not produce
accord that conservatives could denouce as sellout. = RN's also
greatly expanding contacts w/ Hill, Journal notes
Re: sugar
subsidies, Star's lead edit ties sugar lobby's gains to RN's need
for help from Cong on tax probe. Paper strongly sides w/ Butz in
wanting to put sugar on free-mkt basis.

Mamie and John
looking at Ike portrait is featured NY News photo which notes their
confidence re: RN
Photo inside NY Times but no mention of
remarks re: RN.
Brennan has read some of t'scripts and "knows of no proof RN's
guilty of a crime. " And he said US should "w/hold judgment [on RN].
We don't have to despair. We shouldn't lose heart because of stories
coming out of Wash. 11 Brennan said W'gate was composed of "silly
acts, " but they don't mean govt's downfall. Labor and other depts
are "operating at full force. " He termed the "expletive deleteds" just
"salty language
that's part of US. = Further, he never really gave a
damn" about his conversations being taped. He had no "high secrets"
to tell RN and added his Oval and public remarks were the same.
Brennan also said W'gate wouldn't encourage him to resign. "I've
got a job to do, to serve the people. We work better under the gun. "
