Evidence entered in CBS suit
By United Press International
NEW YORK — The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the height of the Vietnam War told Gen. William Westmoreland to keep estimates of enemy troop strength out of news media, cables introduced in news media.
The cables said Westmoreland could not take the estimates to President Johnson because "it would blow the lid off Washington."
The cables from Sanjon to Washington were introduced as evidence in a landmark $120 million label suit by the Westmoreland against CBS over a documentary that accused him of lying the length of the enemy in South Vietnam.
"THE UNCLOUDED ENEMY:
'A Vietnam Decemotion' charged Westmoreland had been politically pressured into keeping the Viet Cong "to bring" "good news" to Johnson and gain 200,000 more U.S. troops.
The CBS broadcast also quoted Westmoreland as saying, "What am I going to tell the press? What am I going to tell the press? What am I going to tell the president?"
During cross-examination yesterday of Col. Edward Caton, a retired intelligence officer for Westmoreland in Salisbury from June 1966 to June 1967, defense attorney David Boies introduced the cable on the floor of the Court of Staff, the late Gen. Earle Wheeler, to Westmoreland.
"I have just been made aware of the figures you now report for battalion and larger size enemy-initiated actions . . . If these figures should reach the public domain, they would literally blow the lid off Washington," he wrote March 9, 1967
Caton, retired from the Air Force, prepared daily intelligence reports on enemy troop strength.
After describing how he attended weekly briefings on enemy strength with Westmoreland and other top staff officers, Caton was asked by the general's attorney, David Dorson, if he ever heard 'Gen. Westmoreland say, "What am I going to tell the president?"
"No, sir, I did not," replied Caton
Nation's personal income rises
By United Press International
WASHINGTON — The nation's personal income climbed a healthy 0.9 percent in September and consumers started spending again in a big way after a lifesleness summer, the Commerce Department said yesterday.
The large 1.4 percent increase in personal spending — the biggest jump since April — followed a slight decline in August, no change in July
and a weak 0.3 percent increase in June.
The figures suggested consumers are armed with ample income and enough enthusiasm to spark an economic rebound during the Christmas season, despite the current economic slowdown.
But the report showed factory incomes suffered in September, just as industrial employment,production and use of capacity also fell off in three other government reports for the month
Factory payrolls went down $1.8 billion, at an annual rate, compared to an increase of $2.4 billion in August as job losses offset small increases in the number of hours worked in wages and the amount paid per hour.
Only about one-third of the decline was caused by the one-week United Auto Workers strike against General Motors, the department said.
Personal income in September increased $26.1 billion to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $3.071 trillion.
500 officers spoil plot, arrest nine
By United Press International
NEW YORK - More than 500 FBI agents and police strike yesterday in coordinated raids, arrested nine alleged black radicals and thwarted a plot to free two gang members jail and rob a Brink's armored truck.
The nine members of the New Afrika Freedom Fighters were arrested between midnight and 1 a.m.
Sawed off machine guns, a submachine gun, dynamite, a bullet-proof vest and other weapons and tools police said were to be used in the robbery and jailbreak were seized.
The suspects — five men and four women — were charged with conspiracy to commit armed robbery at their arrangement in U.S. District Court.
A decision on bail was delayed until later in the day.
Authorities said the group was linked to the bloody 1981 Brink's armed robbery in Nayack, N.Y., and was planning within days the escape of Black Liberation Army member Donald Weems, convicted in that $1.6 million robbery and charged in a second Brink's heist.
The group also was planning the escape of former Black Panther Nathaniel Burns, also convicted in the nack heist, prosecutors said.
