HERBLOCK, Washington Post
Four days after the break-in at the Democratic Party headquarters at the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C., Herblock blamed President Nixon; former Attorney General John Mitchell, who then headed the Nixon reelection committee; and Attorney General Richard Kleindienst for the burglary and numerous other scandals. Address books found on the suspects led Democratic National Committee Chairman Lawrence O'Brien to point a finger at the White House, and he filed a lawsuit against the Committee to Reelect the President. |
