Haldeman wrong on tape
KANSAS CITY—H. R. Haldeman, former chief of staff to President Nixon, said he cautioned on several occasions against destroying the White House tapes because he felt they could absolve the President and him of any wrongdoing in Watertec.
"Little did I realize how the tapes really could lie by creating a presumption of infallibility as to their being the ultimate source of truth," he said.
In the third of a five-part copyright series distributed by Universal Press Sym-
phony City, Haldeman said he learned later he was wrong in his belief that the tapes had been
Haldeman said his recollections of the taping system varied from some points made in a deposition by the former President last fall.
"I do not remember, for example, any conversation with Don Kendall, as the deposition states, in which Nixon's close personal friend is to have communicated, through me, an urgent request from former President Lyndon Johnson that Nixon install a tapping system to assist in writing his memoirs," Haleman said. "Nixon's concerns were more in the area of maintaining an accurate historical record—especially in areas of national security and foreign policy."
Mrs. Ford hits road again
WASHINGTON—For the second straight week, First Lady Betty Ford will represent her husband at a Republican state convention—this one in Minnesota.
White House Press Secretary Ronald Nelsen said he knew of no present plans for President Ford to make any political trips between now and the fall.
However, Nessen said Mrs. Ford might well turn up at other convention conventions choosing who will decide the closely fought contest between the two candidates.
Mrs. Ford's press office announced the first lady's plans to fly to St. Paul Friday to attend the Minnesota GOP convention. She attended the state convention on Monday.
In last weekend's state conventions and other delegate-chosing conclaves, Reagan outgained Ford SS-38. Nelsen said that the results "turned out to be just what I expected."
Western trade bloc urged
PARIS-Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger proposed Monday that the western industrial countries democratize their trade with the Soviet block in order to bolster their exports, which were cut off by sanctions.
In a speech to ministers of the 24-nation Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Kissinger said a unified approach would expand the flow of Russian oil to the West and keep Moscow from using "selective political pressure" to play one Western country against the other.
The Soviet Union and its allies, accounting for about 20 per cent of world output, have the second largest economy in the world but, needing consumer goods and technology, are in severe debt—mostly to the European Common Market countries and Janan.
Child's flu vaccine needed
WASHINGTON—Several recently tested vaccines appear safe and effective in immunizing adults against bacteria but researchers say they have trouble finding them for young children.
Researchers Monday disclosed preliminary results of the first human tests with several variations of swine flu vaccine.
Because persons in different age groups had varied reactions to the vaccine, scientists said it was possible that it would take more than one kind of vaccine to treat all those at risk.

New exhibit to encase Little Big Horn relic
A new exhibit featuring Comanche, the army horse that survived the Battle of the Little Big Horn, will be on display by the end of this year at the Dyche Museum of Natural History.
Tom Swearingen, the museum artist who is doing construction on the exhibit, said he was finishing his work this year with anniversary of the battle in Montana where Gen. George A. Custer led more than 250 troops of the Army against the Indians of the Great Plains.
The display, located on the Museum's fifth level will have two new showcases. One will feature works by Charles Wearnley the stuffing of Comanche, and the other features Swearingen's drawing of the horse used in the book "Comanche" written by Dariy, a associate professor of journalism.
Comanche's story became history when he was badly wounded in the battle and was found, two days later, the sole living creature on the battlefield.
Swearingin will also work on Comanche, repairing tears in his skin. The skin, which had been preserved in a salt brine, was seamed to the skin with an igniifier was installed in the display case.
Later Comanche was given special attention as a symbol of the conflict between the U.S. Army and the Indian tribes of the Great Plains.
"It was very hard to work with," he said. "I'll stick with glue and pull it together, the best I could."

determine the law of supply and demand." The price is few, few qualified, so the price has to go up.
Sixty-eight out of 79 academic departments at KU, or 86 per cent, have no black administrators and 64 or 81 per cent have no black faculty, according to figures released by the Office of Affirmative Action. Of these faculty members, seven, have tenure.
"I'm doing this piece to show the federal government what I can do," Boon said. "The exposure has already won me the chance to do an emblem for the state of Kansas showing the state's most important crop, wheat."
"With the cooperation and acknowledgment of Shankel, we are beginning to meet with key persons in the central administration to find solutions to our problems. This step is to meet with deans of the professional schools and then department heads."
Shankel disagreed with Gordon's suggestion.
The emblem, which took six months to complete, was approved by Congress after the 1972 presidential election.
"Bronze is very expensive, and the wing tips of the bird had to be cut off of my original design before it could be approved," he said.
This was Boon's first experience with such a large piece of bronze.
"To offer blacks more money is a dangerous practice and I philosophically don't believe in it," he said. "It would invite reverse discrimination suits."
