Symbol to the Out-Group 8A ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT AND CHRONICLE Tuesday, February 24, 1970 The Folk Who Live at the 'Fortress 'w construction, is finished next year, it is expected to provide 257 more. The new section threatens to block the view of the Potomac for those tenants in Watergate East, and there has been talk of enlisting Attorney General Mitchell's help in blocking the construction. It is this kind of complaint, along with the usual apartment house gripes about the heat, the air conditioning and an occasional leaky roof, that led to the formation of the Watergate's own citizens' board. Rep. William Anderson, a retired Navy captain, recently resigned after about one year as head of the citizens' board.

"It's a community of pretty damned wealthy people who have had the exercise of power in their lives, and there were just a series of problems," an assistant to Anderson explained. By JOHN E. SIMONDS Gannett News Service WASHINGTON The student revolutionaries who tried last week to storm the exclusive Watergate Apartments where the U.S. Attorney General lives probably did not realize that some of its less-publicized tenants were at that moment debating bills to increase federal aid to education. The $70 million Watergate apartment-hotel-office building-shopping center complex stands as a symbol to the out-group.

In their eyes it's an awesome, dozen-story fortress for John Mitchell, his wife Martha, and other wealthy leaders of the Nixon administration and their bejeweled ladies. Nearly everyone who reads the society pages here knows about the Mitchell's $140,000 duplex cooperative apartment. They've read about the luxurious accommodations where Mrs. Claire Chennault holds forth with the charm of the Dragon Lady, entertaining official Washington and winning more fighter planes for Chiang Kai-shek. It is also the place where Commerce Secretary Maurice Stans has his $130,000 apartment with a tiger-head rug and elephant tusks and other souvenirs of nine African safaris.

But not many know that it is also the home of such un-Re-publicans as Sen. Abraham Ribicoff, and Sen. Alan Cranston, along with the GOP champion of the poor and the downtrodden, Sen. Jacob K. Javits of New York, Sen.

Russell B. Long, also lives there, and so do at least a half dozen House members. Ribicoff and his wife moved into an 11th floor cooperative apartment early in 1969. They used to have a place in Georgetown, but during his re-election campaign in 1868 burglars broke in and ransacked it. The senator is said not to worry about the Watergate's impact on his image as a hero to college students, the poor and the minority groups-some of whom work at the Watergate, but do not live there.

Javits has a penthouse in the price neighborhood of $80,000. Although he is not the White House's favorite Republican, living there has put him on the same turf with Mitchell, Transportation Secretary John Volpe, and some of the other tigers on the Nixon team. Javits' place is said to be so pleasant that even his wife Marion, whose distaste for Washington is legendary, spends more time here now because of it. Cranston and his wife stayed with friends at the Watergate when they first arrived early in 1969, and liked it so well they found a place of their SEN. ALAN CRANSTON preceded the GOP own there "before the Republicans all moved in." Generally speaking, apartments in Watergate East and Watergate West (the Watergate Hotel, in between, has moderately-priced rooms but the air of luxury has rubbed SEN.

ABRAHAM RIBICOFF won't hurt his image off on it) run from just under $30,000 for one-bedroom to $186,000 for the luxury penthouse. There are 240 apartments in Watergate East, 143 in Watergate West. When the new Watergate South, already under Crime Wallinsky Campaign Key He said Republican incumbent Louis J. Lefkowitz has testified that he and his staff spend only two per cent of their time on criminal matters. But if the attorney general assigned 10 per cent of his 450-lawyer staff to organized crime, he would have a force as large as former U.S.

Attorney Robert Morgenthau had, Walinsky said. "What I am saying is not directed personally at the present attorney general," Walinsky was careful to note. "He has discharged the duties of his office in what can only be called the traditional fashion, in accordance with a concept of office he did not originate, but which grew up over years of inattention, in quieter and less problematic time. But that concept of office is no longer adequate today By CHARLES R. HOLCOMB Gannett News Service ALBANY Adam Walinsky launched his formal candidacy for state attorney general yesterday with heavy emphasis on what is likely to be the main theme of his uphill campaign.

That is that the attorney general should be much more independent of the governor, and should use his powers to crack down hard on crime, particularly organized crime. The slim, articulate, 33-year-old former assistant and counsel to Sen. Robert F. Kennedy asserted in press conferences here and in New York City that the attorney general should enforce the laws now on the books, and that this is not being done.
