Hais called the Watergate scandal "i"ts.l sr.d stupid" Tuesday and denied he was involved in any way as a trusted aide to President Richard M. Nixon. Haig, who is President-elect Ronald Reagan's nominee to be secretary of state, portrayed himself instead as a White House chief of staff who fought to keep Nixcn from beccmin enmeshed ia criminal zzis in the final months of his presidency. On the fourth day of his confirmation hearings before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the retired four-star general and former NATO questioning from Sen. Paul S.

'After a break in his testimony, llziz returned to the .witness table and delivered a statement describing his position on the turbulent months he spent in the White ileuse while the Nixcn presidency crumbled. ''Were there abuses? Of course there were, he said. ""They were improper, 'Czz immoral, an affront to the fundamental values we all cherish End I share. - - -' Richard Nixon or Henry Kissinger," Haig said. "It's not in me to render moral judgment on them," he said. "1 must leave that to others, to history, to God." Testifying under oath at his own. request,-Haig responded to Sarbanes questions by saying, 1 never went along with or supported anything 1 believed to be illegal. "Suggestions came up from time to time," Haig said, "and on every occasion I fought it, rejected it or prevented it. "What is it you want me to say? What is it you're after?" he asked. "Nobody has a monopoly on virtue, not even you, Senator," Haig told Sarbanes. "I have not ever indulged in something that is wrong or illegal. ... Others did. That's clear. The record is clear. We saw the volumes of it. ... Do you expect me to endorse what was done? No way ..." Haig acknowledged that mistakes were made, but said he wasn't at the White House when the break-in at the Democratic National Committee took place in June 1972 or when senior White House officials tried to Dut 1 cannot bring myself to render judgment on cover up evidence.

"No ere is discounting the fact that they were made. 1 didn't make them. I wasn't there when they were made. I happened to inherit the situation and the consequences of those -mistakes. ... I had to do my best to keep the country on an even keel to the degree that my authority and responsibility provided." Later in the day, Sen. Barry Go'.dwater, R-Ariz., urged the committee to approve Haij for Senate confirmation and Sen. Lowell Weicker, R-Conn., , asked rejection of Haig's nomination. Goldwater said the country owes Haig a debt of gratitude. "If Nixcn had stood for impeachment, I doubt if this country would have lived through the eight months that would have taken," Goldwater said. "Haig saw his duty and tried to get Nixon to quit before he ruined the country. I take my hat off to this . man."- - Weicker said that "in the absence of their superior's adherence to the law, honorable men either speak up or . get out." He? said Haig did not do that, "and 1 therefore assume him to have either lacked integrity, disdained the Constitution or unquestioningly followed orders." r toiinro leavca county coiti A freak power-Uns brsok' between Hillsbcrcuh and Durham hit northwest Chspd Hill and ncrthsrn Oizr.z County without' electricity for dirxst 10 hours Monday niht, Duke Power district msnajtr John IClncaid sdd. Nearly 2,700 Duke Power customers lost their electricity from 6:50 p.m. Monday until 4:30 a.m. Tuesday. Another 200 customers did not get their power back until 9 a.m. Tuesday. The outage occurred alor.3 N.C. 5 north of Estes Drive and on portions of Weaver Dairy Road. The power lines apparently broke when a conductor on a transmission line fell on some wires and short-circuited the lines that feed the Grange County substations. No injuries cr major equipment damage due to the outage were reported. ,vc RALEIGH (AP) In a move to cut State spending, Gov. Jim Hunt said Tuesday he would recommend that the 1931 General Assembly eliminate 1,002 non-critical state jobs from thet next budget.. . . ; ,. - ' In a memo to the heads of state departments and the Board of Governors of The University of North Carolina system j Hunt asked each department head to submit a list of non-critical positions they would have eliminated by Feb. 16. The state budget office has released a list designating the number of positions to be deleted from each department. The approximate savings from the proposed cutback, which amounts to a 1.8 percent reduction in state jobs, totals more than $13.02 million, according to the budget office. Hunt said the cuts were necessary because the state was in the midst of an economic slowdown and "... state and national economists are not forecasting a strong or immediate upturn in our economy." Brent; Hackney, Hunt's deputy press secretary, said it was uncertain whether any employees would actually be fired as a result. A state hiring freeze has been in effect since fall 1979. Since its inception more than 1,000 state jobs have become vacant, ; Hackney said. He added that there were about 3,000 vacant positions in alL;.'. ,, 7 In . his memo Hunt noted that the number of vacant and frozen positions in each department exceeded the number of deletions requested. Hackney said he assumed the cuts would be made in those vacant positions but added Hunt had left that up to the department heads. . WASHINGTON (AP) - The Stats Department claimed some progress Tusiday in the negotiations on release of the 52 American hostages held in Iran but said "fundamental differences remain to be resolved" with the Tehran regime. Deputy Secretary of State Warren M. Christopher, who is in Algeria, based his report to officials here of progress on the questions Iran has raised about the U.S. plan for a negotiated settlement of the long hostage issues. the Iranians indicated Iran's growing understanding of the terms offered by the United States and approval of some of the U.S. replies to those questions. But the officials cautioned there was no basis for predicting a breakthrough in the long crisis before the Carter administration leaves office next Tuesday. ; Cold cnap cztH'ciiQTy uzz record The record-shattering cold that plunged most of North Carolina into sing!e:digit temperatures Tuesday pushed electric and gas usage to new highs. Customers of Carolina Power 4 Light Co. set an all-time record demand for electricity, shattering the record set only Monday, according to CM. Clark, manager of system operations. Usage peaked at 6,402 megawatts between 7 and 8 a.m. That peak is 2C5 megawatts higher than the previous all-time peak of 6,196 megawatts set Monday. And, Clark said, it's more than 10 percent above last winter's peak of 5, ZQ? megawatts, set Feb. 5. " During the peak, CP&L sold about 00 megawatts of power to Duke Power Co., Virginia Electric and Power Co. and the South Carolina Public Service Authority. V(Oy) s .Hayoivo' got a Job for you!
