CHURCH, me $ Ander ion said he found the Post report, written by Watergate reporter Bob Woodward, hard to believe." He said, however, he had to take the story seriously because of Woodward's repu tation as a reporter which helped the Post win a Pulitizer Prize for its Watergate reporting. The alleged plot was cancelled at the last minute, the Post said, but not before several days of preparation had already been carried out. Hunt told close associates he planned to use a poison which would not be detected during an autopsy, thus making Andersons death appear accidental. Hunt, a retired CIA agent, pleaded guflty in 1973 to charges stemming from the Watergate break-in- . He is currently serving a prison term in Florida. Quoting reliable sources, the Post said Hunt received the assassination order in December, 1971 or January, 1972, six or seven months before the break-i- n at the Watergate complex. The sources said Hunt told former CIA associates the order came directly from a senior official in the While House. The sources added, however, that on another occasion Hunt said an intermediary relayed tne instructions of the senior official.
