Deputy raps U. S.
LISBON (UPI) — Portuguese Deputy Foreign Minister
Jose Medeiros Ferreira has criticized the United States
for saying it pressured Lisbon to prevent Cuban flights
from refueling in the Azores Islands.
“I expressed my displeasure and the displeasure of the
Portuguese government at the form” of the State Depart
ment’s efforts regarding “the problem of the Cuban
planes,” Ferreira said. Cubans stopped using the Azores
to refuel planes destined for Angola with men and supplies
by mid January.
A State Department recently spokesman said “strong |
representations” had been made to the Lisbon
government about the flights.
“We are a sovereign country and we do not need ‘strong
representations' to take the decisions we have to take,”
Ferreira said.
Strachan before war
SALT I.AKE CITY (UPI) - Former White House aide
Gordon C. Strachan, an early casualty of Watergate, told
state Bar Commissioners considering his application to
practice law in Utah that “my ambition took control of my
judgment...and it wouldn’t happen again.”
Strachan, 32, appeared Friday before the nine commis
sioners at an open hearing on his application to be
admitted to the Utah Bar. He has lived here since leaving
Washington in 1973.
Under questioning by the bar’s character and fitness
committee, he admitted destroying “politically
embarrassing” documents during the Watergate affair.
U.S. District Judge John Sirica dismissed three indict
ments against Strachan last year after the Watergate
special prosecutor’s office said he played only a minor
role in the scandal.

He told the 500 distinguished guests at the foreign
ministry dining room that Canada was ready to share its
nuclear technology with the developing nations in order to |
help them industrialize.

In memory of Mr. Charlie
Phillips who departed this
life two years ago today Jan.
25, 1974.
God called you home, at a
twinkle of an eye.

If loving you would have
saved you, you never would
have died.

one can heal.
Memories Is something no
one can steal.
Others may forget you are
gone, but we will remember
no matter how long.
Tears in our eyes can be
wiped away, but the aches In
our hearts will forever stay.

The committee turned him
down.
Church said that Nixon
attorney Robert J. Miller has
now notified the committee of
the former - chief executive’s
willingness to answer written
questions under oath.
After Nixon’s answers arrive
and have been studied, Church
said, “the committee may want
him to answer more questions.”
On Sinatra, Church said the
committee agreed unanimously
there was no reason to call him
or others “in connection with
assassinations.”
He referred to a committee
report late last year which
disclosed that the CIA enlisted
the help of the Mafia in one of
many abortive plots to kill
Cuban leader Fidel Castro.

said she was intimate with both
President Kennedy and Sam

mobster, said she had been
