Both Baker and Ervin said
that all efforts will be taken to
expedite the hearings and Ervin

call for the committee to com-

testimony from former presi-

conspirator E Howard Hunt
and three lawyers connected
with the case.
Meanwhile, Charles Alan
Wright, President Nixon's law-
yer, told a federal appeals court
Tuesday that giving up tapes of
presidential conversations to
the Watergate grand jury would
cause grave damage to the
presidency
Chairman Sam J. Ervin Jr.,
D-N.C., said that the hearings
would be full and complete and
that a proposal to divide into
two subcommittees to probe
areas of political dirty tricks
and campaign financing have
been discarded.
Vice Chairman Howard H
Baker Jr., R-Tenn., told news-

echoed by a number of congres-

In a speech Tuesday night.
