SEPT. 15, 1972. This is the earliest date on which, Dean contends, the President made it clear to him that he was aware of the coverup. He did so, Dean claims, by congratulating him on helping to confine the grand jury indictments to the level of G. Gordon Liddy, the former counsel to the Nixon re-election finance committee. Testified Dean: "The President told me I had done a good job and he appreciated how difficult a task it had been and the President was pleased that the case had stopped with Liddy." Dean claimed that Nixon also said, "That...

...courtliness and mirth, approaches his investigation with a relentless seriousness. He told TIME'S Neil MacNeil last week: "As. an American who loves his country and venerates the institution of the presidency, I indulge the presumption that the President has no connection with the Watergate affair or its coverup. Candor compels me to say that the President is making it very difficult to entertain this presumption if he withholds from the committee the records and the tapes which I believe contain information which is relevant to establish the truth of the Watergate affair...

While some of the key witnesses yet to appear before the Senate Watergate committee may well back John Mitchell's story that President Nixon was long unaware of his aides' involvement in the breakin, they are expected to implicate each other as well as Mitchell in the coverup. These witnesses include Herbert W. Kalmbach, H.R. Haldeman, John D. Ehrlichman and Gordon Strachan. Their testimony would leave the President with few wholly untarnished defenders in a position to know what the President might have known...

...Prestige. Many feel that a resignation or impeachment would irreparably damage U.S. interests in the world. Says Kurt Ogg, a Middlesex, N.J., accountant: "I'm sure he knew about the coverup. But resignation or forcing him out would take away from U.S. prestige abroad." He and many others cited Nixon's achievements in ending the war and improving relations with China and Russia...
