Senate Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities, June 27, 1973 (1/2)
[00.30.46-Sen. INOUYE continues to read the memo accusing DEAN of masterminding WATERGATE and the COVERUP] Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO] "It -was Dean who was the agent in some of the money dealings with the arrested persons." Mr. DEAN. Would you repeat that, please, Senator? Senator INOUYE. "It was Dean who -was the agent in some of the money dealings with arrested persons." Mr. DEAN. I never had any direct dealings with any of the arrested persons. I conveyed messages back of the pressure that was being placed, not only on the reelection committee, but ultimately on the White House, particularly the one that, came to my attention -where a threat had been delivered directly to me of concern to Mr. Ehrlichman. I think I testified that Mr. Ehrlichman raised that immediately with Mr. Mitchell when Mr. Mitchell did attend a meeting in Mr. Ehrlichman's presence. Senator INOUYE. Did you have any dealings with arrested persons? Mr. DEAN. Direct dealings? I had a telephone conversation, the telephone conversations I have discussed -with Mr. Liddy, the meeting I had with Mr. Liddy. I have never met Mr. Hunt other than the meeting one occasion I referred to when he was in Mr. Colson's outer office in August of 1971, which is 'roughly the time, I recall meeting him, after having seen him in there on a number of occasions, I have never met any other individuals. Senator INOUYE. Did you in fact discuss money with Mr. Liddy? Mr. DEAN. Mr. Liddy at the time I called him--this was in January, I believe, it was January 5 of this Par. He had been trying to reach Mr. Krogh. He had received a letter from the Senate Commerce Committee investigators and they were seeking responses from Mr. Liddy regarding Mr. Krogh. Liddy then called Krogh, Krogh did not take the call. That is one of the documents that -was not submitted, which I -have submitted to the committee,, the gist of the call that was returned to Liddy. I had a, report subsequently that Mr. Liddy was rather miffed and a little outraged at the fact that he couldn't get hold of who he thought was a good and loyal friend, Mr. Krogh, Mr. Krogh asked me if I would personally do something about that. That Saturday, I called Mr. Liddy just to tell, to convey to him the reasons that Mr. Krogh did not wish to speak with him, because he wanted to testify before the Senate Commerce Committee in connection with his confirmation hearing that he had not, talked With Mr. Liddy. So; I explained this to Mr. Liddy and during the course of that conversation, Mr. Liddy told me, he said he hoped that somebody -would take care, of the, attorneys fees, I reported to -Mr. Liddy that I -would pass that message, along. [00.33.30] Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO.] "It was Dean who told Colson not to make a transcript of Colson's taped conversation with Hunt and said that he, Dean, would handle the matter." This is a report from the Federal prosecutors, reported in the 'New York Times. Mr. DEAN. That is not correct. To the contrary, I made a transcript of Mr. Colson's telephone conversation on a cassette tape shortly after Mr. Colson brought me his IBM tape of the, conversation. I took a copy of that and played it for Mr. Haldeman and Mr. Ehrlichman at Camp David on November 15. Later that afternoon, after getting instructions that I should raise this with Mr. Mitchell, that he should take care of the problem for Mr. Haldeman and Mr. Ehrlichman, I took it to New York with me and played it for Mr. Mitchell as well. I got no instruction at that point in time from Mr. Mitchell. Senator INOUYE. Where is the tape? Mr. DEAN. It has been turned over--the committee has a copy of the transcript of the conversation . Senator INOUYE. I do not know if they have the tape or not. Mr. DASH. Senator Inouye, we do not have the tape, I am assuming the prosecutors have it. We have a transcript of the tape'. [00.34.44] Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO] "Throughout all of this, Dean was perfectly situated to mastermind and to carry out a coverup since, as counsel to the President and the man in charge for the White House, he had full access to what was happening in the investigation. He sat in on FBI interviews with White House witnesses and received investigative reports. Dean and Ehrlichman met with Attorney General Kleindienst late in July. The Attorney General described the investigation and said that it did not appear that any White House people or any high-ranking committee people were involved in the preparation or planning or discussion of the break-in.'" This is from Mr. Ehrlichman. [00.35.26] Mr. DEAN. Senator, if I just might add one point. I do not know if the committee has a copy of the cassette that I prepared based on Mr. Colson's tape. I do have that In my possession and will be happy to turn that over to the, committee. Mr. DASH. We, do not have it. Mr. DEAN. YOU do not have that? All right. On the other comment you made regarding the Attorney General's public statements. I never discussed with Mr. Kleindienst the coverup that was going on at the White House and the investigation I am sure he is referring to there was his own conclusion. [00.36.10]

Senate Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities, June 27, 1973 (1/2)
[00.36.10-Sen. INOUYE confronts DEAN with the White House memo accusing DEAN of masterminding the coverup] Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO] "History fails to record that at that moment. Dean corrected the Attorney General's erroneous impression by pointing out that Mitchell, Magruder, and Dean had all been involved in planning of operations of which Watergate was an obvious derivative or that Strachan had knowledge of the fruits of this kind of operation, or that all of them were suborning perjury and otherwise. seeking to conceal the facts." [00.36.36] Mr. DEAN. Senator, I would just, like to make, a general observation. This document has obviously been prepared by somebody who was not at the White House at the time, this was all occurring. It sounds like they are putting it back together through newspaper accounts. Senator INOUYE. This is from the office of Your successor, sir. Mr. DEAN. I understand. And I don't believe my successor was there and didn't spend the nearly 3 years in the White House that I did. Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO-THIS PASSAGE GETS QUITE A FEW CHUCKLES FROM THE AUDIENCE] "Dean's activity in the coverup also made him, perhaps unwittingly, the principal author of the political and constitutional crisis that Watergate now epitomizes. [Laughter] It would have been embarrassing for the President if the true facts had become known shortly after June 17th, but it is the kind of embarrassment that an immensely popular President could easily have weathered. [Laughter] The political problem has been magnified one thousand-fold because the truth is coming to light so belatedly, because of insinuations that the White House Was a party to the coverup, and above all, because the White House was led to say things about Watergate that have since been found to have been untrue. These added consequences were John Dean's doing." [00.38.01] Mr. DEAN. Well, Senator, I think that, my testimony answers in great detail my dealings with Mr. Haldeman, Mr. Ehrlichman, and the President, and based on what I know, and knowing the position I held in the White House staff, there is no way conceivable that I could have done and conceived and implemented the plan that they are trying to suggest that I did. [00.38.33] Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO] "Dean was responsible within the White House for becoming apprised of what had happened. From June 17 on, Dean had periodic conversations with Ehrlichman about virtually every aspect of this case." This is from Mr. Ehrlichman. "Dean reported also to Haldeman and to Ziegler, to whom he gave repeated assurances that he had made an intensive investigation and had found no White House involvement." This is from Mr. Ziegler. "Dean was the foundation of the proposition that the White House was not involved'" and this is from Ehrlichman. [00.39.20] "Spring 1973. "With the election past, and public interest in Watergate on the wane, Dean may have thought that this coverup had been a success, although he purported to continue an ongoing investigation." [00.39.35] Mr. DEAN. Senator, if I might interject, I don't know how quickly they are, jumping from winter to spring, but I would draw, to the attention of the committee and the Senator the La Costa meeting and the events that transpired there, which I believe are documented by materials prepared by Mr. Haldeman and Mr. Higby, his assistant, as well as subsequent materials that were prepared for the President, and I think these speak for themselves. Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO] "At the same time, Dean was affecting a failing memory and talking to Magruder as if Dean did not recall the previous Watergate planning meetings in which he had participated." This is from Magruder's testimony. Mr. DEAN. We, reviewed that earlier, and as I said, I did, when I was talking to Magruder, I was telling him I did not, understand what had happened between February 4 and June 17 that resulted in that event occurring, that I never had hard evidence, I never knew for sure what the facts -were, I didn't know how the plan had been approved I didn't know how much White House pressure had been put on him; I didn't know for a fact if Mitchell had or had not approved it; I had never talked with Mr. Mitchell about it. I think that is what Mr. Magruder is referring to, or, as I said earlier, he may have confused. later meetings when I came back from Camp David and I did indeed give him the impression that I could not remember what had happened, because I didn't want to get into any discussions about what had happened at that time.

Senate Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities, June 27, 1973 (1/2)
[00.41.18-Sen. INOUYE continues to interrogate DEAN] Senator INOUYE. Were you surprised when you heard of the. June 17 break-in ? Mr. DEAN. Was I surprised ? Senator INOUYE. Yes. Mr. DEAN. As I told you, my immediate reaction was, after hearing the facts, that it was something that Mr. Colson had been involved in. I was more appalled than surprised. Senator INOUYE. Talking about the first time you heard of the break-in on the 17th, were you surprised? Mr. DEAN-. As I say, I learned it through a conversation that I had on the telephone with my assistant on the 18th, when I called after landing in San Francisco, his persuading me, to come back. When I first heard of -it, [00.42.02] I can't say I was surprised to hear it, knowing what I 'knew had occurred in the White House in the past. Senator INOUYE. You had anticipated something like this? [00.42.14] Mr. DEAN. I hadn't anticipated anything like this, no. I can't. say I anticipated it, but I can't say I was surprised to hear of it, because I was aware, of the fact that there had been a past effort, to accomplish a burglary on the Brookings Institute and I had also heard of the Ellsberg psychiatrist break-in by that time. Senator INOUYE. You were not surprised because you were an author of the plan? Mr. DEAN. No, sir; that was not my immediate reaction. I didn't think the plan had been approved Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO ATTACKING DEAN'S TESTIMONY] "In February, however, with the Ervin committee beginning its work, the President was again. concerned that all of the available facts be made known. In the middle of February 1973, Dean and Richard Moore met with Ehrlichman and Haldeman -it San Clemente. Dean was assigned to reduce "to written form all of the detailed facts as they related both to the Committee To Re-Elect and the White House.'" This is from Mr. Ehrlichman. [00.43.20-DEAN disputes being ordered to make a written report of Watergate] Mr. DEAN. I received no such instruction when I was at La Costa to prepare, any written report and have no knowledge of ever being given such an instruction. Senator INOUYE., This is also substantiated by Mr. Moore. Mr. DEAN. I have, no knowledge of that, There, was, as I say, an earlier effort in December to prepare such a report, and I have, submitted that document to the committee. If there were discussions of Preparing a written report, it was of the ilk of a report that was prepared in the December period, which I, for lack of a better term, call a fairy tale. Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO ATTACKING DEAN'S TESTIMONY] "Dean was pressed continually for or that statement, particularly by Haldeman, but never produced it." Mr. DEAN. Well as I say, I recall, the only time I recall Mr. Haldeman and Mr. Ehrlichman pushing me and pressing me for a statement is when I -was up at Camp David and not in that time frame. Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO ATTACKING DEAN'S TESTIMONY] "At this point, the Gray confirmation hearings were imminent and the Ervin hearings were on the horizon. The President, who had barely known Dean, determined that counsel to the President was the appropriate person with whom to work in formulating the President's position on executive privilege and similar legal issues in that these hearings in news conferences on March 2 and 15, at which they would arise, would present. Between February 27 and April 16, the President met with Dean and usually others, 21 or 22 times and there were 14 telephone conversations between March 10 and April 22." Mr. DEAN. Senator, I will stand on my testimony with regard to those last few paragraphs you have read. [00.45.18] Senator INOUYE. [QUOTING W.H. MEMO ATTACKING DEAN'S TESTIMONY] "It is probable that Dean helped induce the views on attorney- client privilege and on separation of powers that would have immunized Dean himself from having to testify under oath." Mr. DEAN. I -will comment on that to the effect that Mr.--or the President and I when we discussed the Dean appearance, I told him that if I go up there, I am going to testify. There is no way to go up. We had had countless occasions when the executive privilege, issue had come up before, there was a parallel developing between the Gray hearings and the, ITT hearings where Mr. Flanigan made an appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee. This was quite evident. In my discussions with the President he made, it clear to me he did not want Mr. Ehrlichman or Haldeman to appear and I told him the strongest case for executive privilege would rest on the counsel to the President and we did discuss that. [00.46.23]
