SEPTEMBER 14, 1972
MEMORANDUM FOR
JEB MAGRUDER
We have a very unhappy surrogate: Treasury Secretary
George Shultz.
First, and foremost, your ruling (attributed to Haldeman and
the President) that he must travel commercial puts a serious
crimp in his ability to function. He has a Secret Service detail,
a PIO and an aide who customarily travel with him and he prefers
to take his wife. Whatever you may consider the merits, I'm
writing you to let you know that you have a morale problem on
your hands and I assume you'll know how to handle it.
Second, he was very critical of the audio quality of the television
tapes which were shown at Blair House or somewhere last night
by you. He has a feeling that they may have been produced by the
same fellow who did the Phoenix, Arizona film in 1970 since they
have very much the same quality and character about them.
Third, he was disturbed at the response given to the gentleman
from Oregon or Washington who complained that he had been
asked to schedule four meetings and had been promised speakers
and some two or three of them had been cancelled. He felt the
man had been brushed off with an unsatisfactory answer and
that the circumstance showed a serious breakdown in speakers
scheduling.
John a D. Ehrlichman
