Roberts told a group of about 150 students and faculty in Hamilton Hall that the government noticed, but misinterpreted the activism of the 1960's. "All that Watergate represents sprang from Nixon's failure to understand that Americans could disagree with the government because of principle,' Roberts said, "and not because they were being paid by North Vietnam." He believes that the Watergate affair illustrates the effects of the isolation of the president. Roberts said that the lack of press conferences leads to the development of a "coterie of flaks and yes-men" around the president. Roberts discussed presidential press conferences, referring to the first of Nixon's two recent ones: "The press corps - was uptight and frustrated," he said. "If he (Nixon) had had press conferences on some kind of regular basis, he probably wouldn't have gotten that treatment," Roberts continued. In his Tuesday night speech, Roberts emphasized his belief that the press should have a'n adversary relationship with the government. "An adversary relationship threatens to break down when adversaries turn into enemies, break communication, and wage 2L-. yKfeiv. r ff-h'&etU- L- UNIVERSITY SQUARE SQUARE SUITS Buy 1st Suit at Sale Price And Get 2nd for UO OFF Get 3rd Suit for 20 OFF FANTASTIC SAVINGS!!

Tl a ' war," Roberts said. "But it hasn't reached that point and it isn't likely to," he said. Roberts, who wrote the Washington Post stories based on the Pentagon Papers and was a defendant in the resulting trial discussed the President's use of "national security" to restrict the press.- "Nixon thinks that the government can do almost any thing for w hatever he conceives to be national security," Roberts said. "But the burden ought to be on the government to prove that things should be on the national security list not on the press and citizens to get it off the list," he concluded. In a question-answer period that followed the pseech, Roberts praised the determination of the Washington Post in their early efforts about Watergate. "It was a lonely position until McCord blew the whistle," said Roberts. "The pressure was intense during that period." He believed the rest of the country's press were "namby-pamby" because of their failure to "dig" along with the Washington Post. When asked if he had ever been harrassed by the government, Roberts said, "I always operated on the assumption that the better part of discretion was to be discreet." Military-industrial complex Kin by David Klinger Staff Writer More than 100 participants in the Action Conference on Corporate Militarism in the South heard Edward King, a self-styled "product of the military-industrial complex" denounce the United States military budget on Friday. Keynoting the two-day conference held at the Carolina Friends School in Durham, King offered suggestions on ways to combat increased military spending to the members of the peace action conference. .

But we want to get it dow n, not just level the spending off," ICing stated. King criticized Congress as being the advocate, rather than the watchdog, of high military spending. He listed two factors as' contributing to the support which many congressmen give to a large military budget: a home state constituency basically in support of a high military budget and the location of military bases in home districts. In what King described as the "Pentagon revenge file," military officials often use the pressure of threats to close or reduce the number of military installations in a congressman's home district as a kver to obtain support for certain defense appropriations.

Mgr.-' 111 Unlives GI school enrollments GI Bill school enrollments increased 14 per cent in fiscal year 1973. enrolling the largest number of veterans since post-World War 11. reported H.W. Johnson, director cf the Winston-Salem Veterans Administration Regional Office. Included among the 2.1 million veterans who trained under the GI Bill in this fiscal year were 1.2 million in college. 756,000 in other schools and 189,000 who took apprenticeship or other on-job training. Increased enrollments "reflect, in pan, efforts of many v eterans discharged prior to enactment of current benefits to make use of them before the eight-year May 31. 1974 expiration date," Johnson commented Johnson also reported 130,000 ets were trained and used "free entitlement" during the year, or before. Under the fret entitlement program, VA pays monthly training allowances, but time spent training is not charged against the total GI Bill time to which the trainee is entitled. to policy, or rev olt, and they're not going to revolt," King commented. He suggested that the blame lay vu'.rt official foreign policy and that a major step in correcting this situation would include change in the policy under which the military operates, rather than an attack on the military itself. "What we have to provide to the military are some incentives to tell the truth and nnt get punished when they do tell the truth. It's not this way now," added King. He cited the example of A. Ernest Fitrgerald, vhose position as deputy assistant secretary for procurement was abolished by the Air Force after he exposed $2 billion in secret cost overruns on Lockheed's C-5 jet transport in 1969. Originally scheduled to keynote the peace conference, Ftizgerald cancelled his speaking engagement after the Air Force suddenly was ordered last Tuesday by the Civil Service to rehire Fitzgerald. 0575.00 1 YR.
