Tha Daily Tar Heel
Bill
restricts
death penalty
RALEIGH The state senate Thursday
approved a compromise bill that keeps the
death penalty for murder and rape but
eliminates it for burglary and arson.
The house decided to wait until Friday
before debating the bill.
Under the bill, first degree murder would
remain punishable by death while second
degree murder would carry a penalty of up to
life imprisonment.
The bill calls for the death penalty for first
degree rape and up to life imprisonment for
second degree rape.
First degree rape is defined in the measure
as a rape by a male 16 and over using force or
a dangerous weapon to cause the submission
of his victim and rapes by those 16 and over
on "virtuous" girls under the age of 12.
In addition, the legislation defines a life
term as an 80-year sentence and says an
inmate must serve 20 years of a life sentence
to become eligible for parole.
It also contains a clause that would
convert the death
imprisonment should
Court find the
unconstitutional.
If approved by the house Friday, it would
become effective immediately.

WAS H I NGTON-The White House said
Thursday President Nixon will be almost
totally wiped out financially when he pays
$467,000 in back taxes and interest, and
probably must float a loan to settle his
Internal Revenue Service debt.
The news of the financial pinch suffered
by Nixon, who is a millionaire in terms of
cash and real estate, came as the House
Judiciary Committee got for its
impeachment inquiry a massive
congressional report on the President's
taxes.
A presidential spokesman also hinted that
Nixon may have to consider selling one of his
villas to foot the bill.
Nixon given ultimatum
penalty to life
the U.S. Supreme
death penalty
W AS H I NGTON Vowing that it will not
be "thwarted by inappropriate legalisms or
by narrow obstacles." the House Judiciary
Committee Thursday gave the White House
an ultimatum on supplying the presidential
tapes it claims it needs in its impeachment
inquiry.
Chief Committee Counsel John Doar, on
instructions from the committee, wrote the
White House a letter asking that it answer no
later than April 9 whether it would provide
the 4 1 tapes the committee requested Feb.25.
Chairman Peter W. Rodino. D-N.J.,
said the committee, which is investigating
possible grounds for impeachment, will
subpoena the tapes if it has to in order to
make a fair and thorough inquiry.
"We shall not be thwarted by
inappropriate legalisms or by narrow
obstacles to our inquiry," he said. "We have
waited patiently to get the recorded
conversations; we will subpoena them if we
must."
Doar said .the tapes cover conversations
President Nixon had in February-April,
1973, with several aides, including John
Dean, H.R. Haldeman. John Ehrlichman
and former Attorney General Richard
Kleindienst.
The conversations. Doar said, go to the
heart of whether Nixon participated in or
knew of the cover-up of the Watergate
break-in and related matters.
Chapin lied to jury,
government charges
WASHINGTON The government
charged Thursday that Dwight L. Chapin
was kept so well informed by a political
saboteur that he had to be lying when he told
the Watergate grand jury he knew little or
nothing about political dirty tricks against
Democrats in 1972.
Government prosecutor Richard Davis
gave closing arguments in the four-day trial
of Chapin' 33. former appointments
secretary to President Nixon. Chapin is
charged with three counts of lying to the
Watergate grand jury when he said he was
not fully aware of the activities of Donald
Segretti.
Chapin hired Segretti to work for the
Republicans to sabotage the campaigns of
Democratic presidential hopefuls in 1972.
Alter Davis closing arguments, defense
attorney Jacob Stein presented Chapin's
side.

DEDICATED TO MEDICINE AND THE PEOPLE WHO PRACTICE IT
Meeting with reporters for the first time
since it was announced late Wednesday
Nixon would pay an I RS assessment of extra
taxes for his first term in office. Deputy
White House Pres Secretary Gerald
Warren gave a bleak report of the President's
financial health.
He has to completely reassess his
financial position, which has been almost
totally wiped out by this. Warren said.
He said Nixon will meet the obligation
with "certain cash and probably borrow
some money to pay the remainder.
He gave no indication from whom Nixon
might seek a loan.
According to Warren, Nixon will not sell
his plush San Clemente. Calif., estate
because he has promised to to leave it to the
nation after he and Mrs. Nixon die. But he
made no such claim about their Key
Biscayne. Fla.. vacation villa.
Meanwhile on Capitol Hill, the tax
committee that triggered Nixon's decision to
pay the IRS an extra S432.787.I3 plus
interest voted to end their role in the tax
investigation. The committee lauded Nixon
for agreeing to pay what he owes, and sent
the exhaustive tax report to to the
impeachment inquiry.
