Reversing a declaration that the White House would have no comment on the various daily allegations made at the Senate hearings, Presidential Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler issued a flat denial of Nixon's involvement: "Mr. Nixon did not participate in any way or have any knowledge regarding the cover-up and at no time authorized anyone to represent him in offering Executive clemency...
