Agnew calls N.Y. Times story 'libel'
HOUSTON (UPI)-Spiro T. Agnew said Monday the New York Times had "pulled the major blooper of the campaign" in stating editorially some of Agnew's past business dealings had conflicted with his position as an elected official.
"The fact that he Times waited until a week before the election to distort the facts and make its inaccurate charges against me compounds the libel," the Republican vice-presidential nominee said in a statement.
Agnew issued the sharp denial of conflict of interests during a visit to Houston in which he visited the Manned Spacecraft Center and addressed a rally at a Houston suburb, Pasadena, Tex.
Agnew quoted the Oct. 28 editorial as saying Richard Nixon failed to investigate Agnew's background to discover a conflict between Agnew's position as a zoning board member and a financial partner in a land development firm.
The editorial said, "These men have made a sizable fortune out of developing land in suburban Baltimore over the past 15 years, in part because of favorable zoning and government decisions, and Mr. Agnew's financial worth has also risen sharply."
Agnew said that his net worth was less than that of any other presidential or vice-presidential candidate $111,084.44.
Police Ratio
POLICE RATIO In Philippnes
MANILA (UPI) — There are 30,000 policemen in the Philippines, a country with a 34 million population. That's equal to one policeman for every 1,132 Filipinos.
MOSCOW (UPI)—Soviet scientists Monday brought the unmanned Soyuz 2 spacecraft back to earth and said Col. George Beregovoi, still aloft in Soyuz 3, had advanced space technology into the new age of maneuverable "cosmoplanes."
'Cosmoplane' still orbiting
The Russians indicated Beregovoi had made giant strides toward perfection of the grand design for permanent orbiting space stations by maneuvering his ship approximately like an automobile instead of following tracks like a "railroad train."
They said he jumped from one orbit to another, "a big stride towards the future."
The United States performed
the same orbit-to-orbit shift in 1965 with Gemini 3 and has since done it several times with Apollo spacecraft. Space scientists say such orbital shifting is essential to moonlights for which both nations are preparing.
The 47-year-old cosmonaut was reported in good health as he zipped through his third day of earth orbit. Some Soviet sources speculated he may remain aloft as long as 10 days to simulate the endurance needed for moon flights.
The Soviet news agency Tass reported that Beregovio Monday performed one experiment that required him to cut his engines
