CIA boss among those
called to Camp David
THURMONT, Md. (UPI) -
President Nixon today sum
moned six top officials includ
ing CIA director Richard Helms
to Camp David for individual
conferences on the government
Makeup he plans for the start
of his second term.
Nixon was about midway
through a series of one-on-one
meetings with cabinet members
and other key government
officials which Press Secretary
Ronald L. Ziegler said were
intended to solicit ideas for the
bureaucratic remodeling the
President has promised.
On today’s schedule were
Helms, U.N. Ambassador
George Bush, HEW Secretary
Elliot Richardson, Cost of

Howard Hughes eyes
ocean floor wealth
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.
(UPI) —Howard Hughes is
reported to be planning a giant
assault on the mineral wealth
of the ocean floor.
The mystery billionaire’s
project, shrouded in secrecy
and centered in a compound on
the shore of San Francisco Bay,
rivals a science fiction tale in
its imaginary approach.
A source, who did not want to
be identified, said the project
calls for sinking a barge to the
ocean bottom. An undersea
tractor, presumably automated,
will ply the ocean bottom from
the barge and bring back
copper, nickel, manganese and
cobalt from the ocean floor.
Once the mineral wealth is
brought aboard, plans call for

Rumsfeld, Agriculture Secreta
ry Earl Butz, and Leonard
Garment, an assistant to the
President.
Ziegler said Nixon was
“working on matters of transi
tion to the second term.” But
he refused to divulge details.
The series of meetings stirred
some speculation that Nixon
had already reached basic
decisions and was simply
informing cabinet officers of
changes in their departments.
Ziegler denied that and said
the President was “asking for
their suggestions.” Administra
tion officials have indicated
Nixon will accomplish as much
reorganization as possible by
executive order without the
need for action by the
Democratic-controlled Con-
the barge to be refloated by air
pumped from a surface ship.
So far, both the huge barge
and a 618-foot-long ship, the
“Hughes Glomar Explorer,”
have been built for the
multimillion dollar venture. The
barge sits in a secret guarded
compound in Redwood City
where it is being outfitted.
A spokesman for Hughes Tool
Co. in Houston, confirmed the
company is embarking on an
undersea mining venture, but
declined to discuss details.
Global Marine, Inc. of Los
Angeles acknowledged building
the ship in Chester, Pa., and
Lockheed Corp, confirmed it is
doing work on the project for
Hughes. But neither firm would
discuss any details.
gress. The President was
rebuffed by the lawmakers on
reorganization plans he submit
ted two years ago and he
apparently has decided to go
around the Congress as much
as possible this time.
The President has been at
Camp David since last Monday
with the exception of a brief
return to Washington Saturday.
Since he was re-elected Nov. 7,
Nixon has spent only three
nights in Washington and has
not been in the capital for a
single full day.
Helicopters have been shut
tling cabinet members back
and forth from Washington to
Camp David for their meetings
with Nixon, most of which have
lasted a little less than an hour.
Security at the bayside work
site here is tight and even city
inspectors must phone first for
permission to enter.
One newsman was met at the
gate recently by guards and a
tight-lipped Lockheed executive
who turned him away.
Government scientists have
queried Hughes’ officials re
garding the mystery barge but
have never received an answer.
Work at the Tiburon site is
aimed at developing techniques,
such as suction hoses, to bring
undersea minerals to the
surface.
A spokesman for Global
Marine described the 51,000-ton
Glomar Explorer as a “deep
ocean mining ship.”
Cambodia
convoy
demolished
PHNOM PENH (UPI) -The
Viet Cong “almost entirely
wiped out” a 50-truck Cambo
dian army convoy carrying
troops and their families during
an ambush Sunday on Highway
5 only 35 miles north of Phnom
Penh, the government said
today.
The attack came two days
after the highway was declared
safe from Communist attack
for the first time since August.
Col. Am Rong, the official
Cambodian military spokes
man, said the government
suffered “heavy” losses of both
men and equipment but he gave
no casualty or damage figures.
Reliable military sources said
nearly every truck, including
the escorting U.S. armored
personnel carriers, was de
stroyed in the attack.
Government reinforcements
were trying to reach the area.
Although the Viet Cong attack
began shortly after dawn
Sunday, radio appeals for air
support from the embattled
convoy were still being moni
tored at 1 a.m. today. Shortly
thereafter all contact was lost
with troops in the area.

Brandt wins
in Germany
BONN (UPI) -Chancellor
Willy Brandt headed trium
phantly into a new four-year
term today, riding high on a
national vote of confidence so
strong it made his Social
Democrats the largest West
German party for the first time
snce World War 11.
The largest voter turnout—9o
per cent of the electorate—in
the 23-year history of the West
German republic returned
Brandt and his coalition to
office Sunday with a new,
increased majority.
It was a personal triumph
and a ringing endorsement of
his policies of peace and good
neighbor relationships in Eu
rope.
“Our country’s voice has won
increased weight in the world,”
Brandt said after the results
showed he scored his greatest
political triumph. His voice
cracked with emotion and tears
filled his eyes.
The official final results

per cent, an increase of 3.4 per
cent over the Brandt-led party
showing in 1969.
The main opposition Christian
Democrats finished with
16,794,407 votes or 44.8 per cent
while the Free Democrats,
allies of Brandt in parliament,
finished with 3,128,821 votes or
8.4 per cent.
It meant 230 seats in the
Bundestag for the Social
Democrats, 224 for the Chris
tian Democrats and 42 for the
Free Democrats. No other
party won a seat.
The Communists, the right
wing National Democratic par
ty and other splinter groups
managed to attract only one
per cent of the vote among
them.
“The danger of our isolation
between East and West has
been banished,” Brandt said.
“The government will use
every chance to push ahead the
process of easing tension and of
cooperating in the unification of
Europe.”
