Reaction to pardon reaching
intensity of the Cox firing
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
» reaction over President Ford’s
pardon of former President
Nixon is reaching the intensity
of the fire storm produced by
the firing of Watergate prosecu
tor Archibald Cox.
There are some similarities
i between Ford’s action and the
so-called “Saturday night
massacre” of Oct. 19, 1973, in
which Cox was fired and At
• torney General Elliot L.
Richardson and his deputy,
William D. Ruckelshaus,
, resigned.
Nixon had said Cox had the
full story of Watergate and
ordered him not to seek further
•* evidence. The violent national
opposition was called a “fire
storm” by White House aide
, Alexander M. Haig.
' Ford’s action was even more
final for Cox’ successor, Leon
Jaworski. It effectively pre
,• vents him from seeking an
indictment against Nixon for
the Watergate cover-up.

l Boils: handle
| with care
By Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D.
DEAR DR. LAMB - Would
you tell me what causes
boils? What could I put on
them so they would come to a
head sooner to relieve the
pain?
DEAR READER - Boils
are a large pimple. They are
caused by the staphylococcal
bacteria. We all have these
bacteria on our skin. Or
dinarily our skin protects us
from these bacteria causing
an infection. When these bac
teria find a break in the skin,
as may occur around a hair
follicle or an accumulation of
excess skin oils and wax, they
start an infection. Our de
fense mechanisms wall off
the infection so it can’t
spread to the rest of the body.
As the infection is limited it
destroys only a spot of tissue.
The germs can’t migrate, so
they are in the destroyed
tissue or die. This infected
and destroyed tissue is the
“pus” that comes out of the
boil.
You shouldn’t apply pres
sure to such a localized infec
tion, in part because you can
break down the wall of tissue
and cells constructed to limit
the infection to that area.
But, you can apply a warm or
hot towel ana soak it. This
speeds up the process, and it
softens the hard skin over the
infected area. If it is large
you should let your doctor
drain it. He won’t drain it,
though, until the infection has
been walled off by your
body’s defenses.
Anyone who has recurrent
boils should have a good
medical examination. It may
mean you have a lowered
resistance to infection as can
occur with diabetes.
DEAR DR. LAMB - Re
cently I had a gall bladder
operation, and my doctor dis
covered I had a badly
damaged liver. This wasn t
caused by the gall bladder.
He said from the condition of
the liver I had had this a long
time. I was flabbergasted. I
always thought only drinkers
got this. I’m no drinker, all I
ever did drink was plain soda
at social gatherings. I dislike
any kind of liquor. I did have
a very difficult childbirth
years ago. Could I have
damaged my liver then?
I know a liver could never
be replaced or repaired, but
what can be done to keep it
from giving me any problems
in the future? My doctor says
vitamins with iron each day
and plenty of proteins, a well
balanced meal. Anything
else?
DEAR READER - There
resigned, the second adminis
tration official publicly to quit
the government since the
pardon.
Ford’s friend and press
secretary, J.F. terHorst, who
resigned Sunday as “a matter
is a widespread misconcep
tion that all cases of cirrhosis
of the liver are caused by
drinking too much. Cirrhosis
is a scarring process that
destroys a certain amount of
liver cells. These are
replaced by non-functioning
fiberous tissue.
No one knows why or when
you developed cirrhosis.
Some cases are the result of
old viral hepatitis. Others are
caused from inflammation of
the bile tract or obstruction
of the bile tract. You can
even develop cirrhosis of the
liver from longstanding
heart failure. Fluid collects
in the liver and causes this.
Treatment is general, as
your doctor has said, particu
larly as long as you have no
symptoms. If you have evi
dence of poor absorption
from your digestive tract
then you have a greater need
for the increased intake of
vitamins. In your case it isn’t
important, but for those who
do use alcohol, they should
stop this entirely if there is
any liver damage.

Landon won’t talk
TOPEKA, Kan. (UPI) — Alfred M. Landon took a
horseback ride Monday through the hills of his West
Topeka, Kan., estate on the occasion of his 87th birthday,
then paused to say he would not talk about President
Ford’s pardon of Richard Nixon.
“I think we should all hold off commenting until we see
what happens,” said the former governor and 1936 GOP
presidential candidate.
Landon also said that Ford is plagued now with
problems of inflation. “I assume he is trying to get by
those and I think we should go along,” he suggested.
Sellers’ wife sued
LONDON (UPI) — Peter Sellers’ third wife, Miranda
Quarry, filed for divorce Monday. The actor did not
contest the action.
Sellers married Miss Quarry, the stepdaughter of
industrialist Lord Mancroft, in 1970.
His first marriage in 1951 to Anne Howe ended in
divorce in 1964. They had a son and a daughter. Later that
year he married actress Britt Ekland and that marriage
also ended in divorce, five years later. They have one
daughter.
Sellers was 49 on Sunday.
Waldheim visits Ford
WASHINGTON (UPI) — U.N. Secretary General Kurt
Waldheim paid a courtesy call to the White House Monday
—his first visit since Gerald Ford became President.
The two leaders chatted for about 45 minutes, and
reportedly discussed a U.N. speech Ford is scheduled to
give later this month.
Sitting in on the midaftemoon meeting were Secretary
of State Henry A. Kissinger and John Scali, the U.S.
ambassador to the United Nations.
Saxbe not hopeful
CLEVELAND (UPI) — Attorney General William B.
Saxbe says if crime gets any worse in U.S. cities and
suburbs there won’t be any more “places to hide.”
“If the present trends continue, the prospect of where
America may be a decade from now —and what it may be
like to live in —is enough to evoke a shudder from even the
most optimistic,” he said in remarks prepared for
delivery before the Ohio Realtors’ Association.

of conscience,” went back to
work for the Detroit News.
Some House members sug
gested reopening the impeach
ment inquiry and Rep. Jerome
Waldie, D-Calif., suggested
calling Nixon as a witness.
Vladimir Pregelj, the fore
man of the grand jury, said
some of his fellow jurors
expressed opinions between
“deep dismay and high out
rage” and wanted to consider
possible action, perhaps the
release of the still-secret
evidence behind the 194) vote to
implicate Nixon.
The reaction Monday was
massive: The White House
switchboard said there were
thousands of calls and tele
phone sentiment was running 3
to 1 against the pardon Sunday
but later leveled off.
Western Union officials in
New York said 24,000 telegrams
and similar messages went to
the White House and Capitol
Hill on Sunday.
The normal Sunday volume is
about 3,200. According to a
White House spokesman, tele
grams were coming at the rate
of 700 an hour and they were 5
to 1 against a pardon.
“The pardon,” said Sen. Sam
J. Ervin, D-N.C., “aids and
abets the efforts of those who
sought to hide the truth in
respect to Mr. Nixon’s personal
involvement in the Watergate
affair from the American
people and thus continues the
cover-up operations.”
Another fear was expressed
by Rep. James G. O’Hara, D-
Mich., who said, “It appears
obvious that the immunization
of Richard Nixon from the legal
consequences of his actions was
part of a deal entered into as a
condition of Gerald Ford’s
ascendence to the presidency a
month ago.”

By GEORGE FRANK
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (UPI)
— Former President Richard
M. Nixon will resign from the
California State Bar because he
no longer wants to practice
law, his personal attorney said
Monday.
The surprise announcement
came minutes before some of
the 500 delegates to the annual
State Bar meeting planned to
bring up a resolution calling for
continued investigation into
Nixon’s possible disbarment.
But the former president’s
attorney, Dean S. Butler,
denied that the resignation —
scheduled to take place in the
next couple of weeks —had
anything to do with the
investigation or disbarment.
“Former President Nixon has
determined that in the future
he will be engaged in matters
other than the practice of law,”

Butler said in an informal
letter to bar president Seth M.
Hufstedler.
Nixon, who began his law
career in California in 1939, has
to be a member of the bar to
practice in the state. Butler
also said Nixon plans to resign
from the New York state bar,
but the secretary of that
institution said he had not
received any formal indication
of it.
The California Bar’s resolu
tion asking for the continuation
of the already lengthy investi
gation of Nixon apparently died
with the resignation announce
ment. One member said the
question was “moot.”
Asked if the resignation
would halt the investigation and
disbarment proceedings,
Hufstedler replied, “resignation
accomplishes that very effec
tively.”

Butler said, “There may have
been some reluctance to take a
position on that prior to Mr.
Ford’s pardon over the week
end. There were so many
matters being considered that it
was just not appropriate at that
time for him to be making
many changes.”
