It is Wolff's understanding and belief that both Green and Matz

continued to make cash payments directly to Mr. Agnew after he had become
Vice-President. Wolff bases this conclusion on conversations that he has had
with both Green and Matz since January, 1969, in which each of them has
indicated to Wolff that he had made payments directly to the Vice-President. ©
At a certain point, which Wolff believes was after Mr. Agnew's
election as Vice-President in November, 1968, but prior to his inauguration as
Vice-President on January 20, 1969, Mr. Agnew asked Wolff to determine the
details of payments that had been made by the State Roads Commission under his
administration to the engineering company owned and operated by Allen Green.
Wolff then discussed this request with Green, who subsequently prepared a list
that he submitted to Wolff. Wolff then prepared a final list, a copy or
duplicate of which he gave to Mr. Agnew. When Wolff handed Mr. Agnew the list, |
they did not discuss it to any extent, according to Wolff's present recollection
Mr. Agnew just put it away..
. Wolff would testify that much of his understanding concerning Mr.
Agnew's actions and reactions to specific situations was inferential, since he
and Mr. Agnew did not discuss Wolff's relationship with Hammerman or others or
the fact that he and Mr. Agnew were acting, either jointly or individually,
in a corrupt manner. Wolff believes his relationship with Mr. Agnew
flourished because of their mutual sensitivity to their own positions and their
mutual respect for one another. He does recall, however, an occasion on which
he was in the Governor's office in the State House. Governor Agnew and he
were standing in front of the fireplace after a meeting, and the Governor
‘said to Wolff in substance: "Look after yourself but be careful."
