But Moss said, after the Watergate scandal dies down, executive privilege may be reasserted. In Washington Watergate underlies and overhangs Moss said. a He called the scandal shockingly unusual aberration in national politics. Moss said he is not attempting to convict anyone on hearsay, but guilty verdicts have already been rendered and confessions have been given. Nixon'E troubles stem from the fact that he has isolated himself from other branches of government and from the American people, Moss said. The W'hite House staff has cv? aggravated Nixons tendency to work alone and rely on his own judgment. Nixon has become insulated from the real world," Moss charged. Moss censured Although Nixoii, he did not say he favored measures to reverse the flow of power, curtail the presidency, and substantially reduce its influence. Weakening the presidency, Moss said, would not necessarily strengthen Congress. We want to strengthen the principles that should guide this country, and this in turn will heal and build both institutions," the senator said. He called for government based on sharing of power, mutual respect, honeaty, the public's right to know, rational decisLon making and willingness to compromise. Watergate, gas, U.S. Senate Rep. Owens speaks out on issues The most odious" aspect of Watergate and related scandals is not the bugging, but the influence peddling, U.S. Rep. said Wayne Owens, today. to a political Speaking science seminar at the University of Utah and during a breakfast with newspaper reporters, Owens pointed to the relationship between the administration and such economic interests as International and Telephone Telephone Corp. and Robert Vesco.

Two John congressmen, and Bella Abzug, have called for a committee of inquiry to investigate the possibility of impeaching the president. At this time Owens does not support this resolution. Moss, There is a good possibility of congressional investigation into the gasoline shortage to see if it is being used Improperly by major oil companies, Owens said. Everybody is suspicious of the oil companies. Its Incredi- ble. Even conservative Republicans have told me they think the big oil companies may be causing the crisis, Owens said.

Under the Nixon administration the government has pursued a flaccid anti-trupolicy, the freshman congressman charged. He said the oil companies have the ability to create a crisis, but he does not know whether, in fact, they are behind present problems. Owens favors a policy of developing alternative sources of energy and, at the same time, working to cut down on energy consumption. Polls are now being taken in Utah to determine whether Owens might be a viable candidate for senator from Utah in 1974. The polls are being conducted by volunteers rather than by a professional polling organization, Owens said. Re . will not be available for about a month. st Owens said he will not decide whether about running for the senate until next year. He said his decision will largely depend on how well he assesses the candidacy of Salt Lake . attorney Donald B. Holbrook, who has garnered support from Gov. Calvin L. Rampton, party professionals and labor organizations. There would be many advantages to remaining in the House. Weve been more progressive than the Senate, Owens said. He noted that he is the only freshman representative to sit on the Democratic Steering and Policy Commit- tee, I'm not eaten up by that ambition as I thought I would be, Owens said.
