Brezhnev flew home today from a five-da- y visit to West Germany, voicing hope that his talks with Chancellor Willy Brandt had helped heal the old enmity between their nations. MOSCOW (UPI) The Brezhnev was accompanied to the airport by Brandt who reaffirmed in a farewell statement to his guest that he believed the agreements they reached were a good result which will work to the advantage of peace and cooperation in Europe. The Soviet Community party chief and Brandt signed a long Common Declaration Monday night that outlined their intentions to work for a more relaxed European atmosphere and sketching plans for long term West German investment in the industrialization of the Soviet Union. . Brezhnev arrived at the Vnukovo Airport outside Moscow and was met by members of the ruling Politburo. En route home he sent a telegram to Brandt saying, We are leaving with a hope that the mutual work carried out by us will serve a better development of relations between our countries.

Reports of McCords letter to Caulfield first surfaced last weekend in a sworn pretnal deposition of a White House lawyer, Fred F. Fielding, who said Caulfield had called him on Dec. 31 to say he had gotten such a trees in the forest will fall communication anonymously in the mail. McCord testified Friday that Caulfield began relaying offers of executive clemency to him, from the highest levels of the House if he- - would plead guilty and keep quiet, during McCord's Watergate White trial that began Jan. 8. Caulfield was expected to follow McCord to the witness table at the Senate hearings, perhaps later today. McCord testified he was subjected to intense pressures to go along with the plan to blame Watergate on the CIA, particularly at two meetings last year the There name was a time when Rockefeller served as a good example of the worst of American capitalism. MOSCOW (UPI) Times change, as witness what happened when David Rockefeller came to Moscow. The chairman of the Chase Manhatten Bank received a red carpet welcome Monday when he opened the first American banking office in the Soviet capital in more than 50 years. Some people, he said afterwards, may find it ironic that a Rockefeller would open a banking office in the shadow of the Kremlin. But the world is changing rapidly, Rockefeller said. I have found nothing but cordiality from all the officials with whom Ive met, he said. I cannot help concluding that they have not taken their own propaganda too seriously. Rockefeller said the new Chase office, located in the Hotel a short walk Kremlin and Red the from Metropol Square, would help Americans Rusdoing business with the sians and Russians wanting to trade with U.S. firms. It is the first U.S. bank with a Moscow representative since First National City Bank closed its office in the 1920s. The opening of the office highlighted a day that included a series of meetings with Soviet officials, including Premier Alexei N. Kosygin. The official news agency Tass said the Rockefeller-Kosygi- n meeting consisted of conversation businesslike held Li an atmosphere of mu- tual understanding.
