[00.12.46--ERVIN gavels meeting open] Senator ERVIN. The committee will come to order. We are somewhat shorthanded this morning. Senator Weicker is compelled to attend a graduation of his son. Senator Talmadge is the floor manager of an agricultural bill which IS now the pending business of the Senate & Senator Inouye is compelled to chair hearings on a Subcommittee of the Senate Commerce Committee. So, notwithstanding our investigation, the business of the Senate is compelled to go on and we hope that these Senators, will be able to come sometime today. Counsel will call the first witness. Senator GURNEY. Mr. Chairman. Before we call the first, witness, I think we ought to straighten out this news report that: appeared last evening and also this morning about the fact that the committee was going to issue a subpena to obtain the logs of' the President to verify the number of times that -Mr., Dean either did Or did not see him. I have talked to the Chief counsel about, this. He tells me that there was no such statement issued by him and I think that ought to be made clear at this time because it certainly is a misapprehension and it indicates the committee and the White House are not operating in conjunction with this or the White House is, not cooperating with this committee and I wonder if we can have an explanation at this time. Mr. DASH. Yes, Mr. Chairman a request was made of me as I left the hearing or some time during the recess as to whether or not the committee would be seeking the information concerning contacts between the President and Mr. Dean. My statement was that if it is relevant evidence we certainly will be, seeking it and I made no statement that the committee will be, issuing a subpena. A correcting statement to the news releases has been made by me, Senator Gurney, which indicates all Of Our requests to the White House for the appearance of a White House witness or for the production of records from the White House has been made through a discussion between me and Mr. Leonard Garment, Counsel for the President. Up to that date we have received complete cooperation concerning such requests, We, will continue that policy which is carried in our guidelines which were approved by this committee, and that is the explanation of this situation. Senator GURNEY I thank the chief counsel and I do think it does clarify the situation. Mr. DASH. Now the next witness is Mr. Hugh Sloan. Senator ERVIN. Will you raise your right hand. Do you swear that the evidence which you ---hall give to the Senate Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God.
