FROM:
ANDRE' E. LeTENDRE

SUBJECT:
Placement and my future function re:
Key Man and Related Programs
I have had conversations with Jeb Magruder, Fred Malek, and Charles
Shearer of the Committee for the Re-Election of the President. The
results of the conversations are, to quote a New England Political Hack,
"Pig Shit!"
I, obviously, do not understand "Peter's Principais" and they,
obviously, just do not understand.
It is critical, in my opinion, that the mode of operandi for our
programs be set as soon as possible or we should abort our present
course and "do something" with our existing vehicles and contacts.
If our resources are not valuable to those directly involved in
the overall 1972 objectives, let's utilize our resources overtly at
the White House for other good things. Important local, Congressional,
and statewide races throughout the country could use the assistance,
too.
It is obvious to me that the principals at the Committee (ex-
cluding the Attorney General, since the matter has not been taken to
him as far as I know) are not anxious to have the program and/or me
move into the Committee structure for all the "Sideshow" reasons only
known to them and their super and defensive egos.
Thus, it is imperative a channel of utilization for our current
and projected resources be opened at the White House or someplace else
via the White House ASAP.
Presently I feel I've become America's Joan-of-Arc.
I'd greatly appreciate an opportunity to discuss this with you.
Thanks, Chuck.
