[pounding]. We did surveys in probably twenty of the
major cities in America. We' ve got more information
[pounding], we've got more contacts around this country
[pounding], for a centralized office, than probably
anybody else in the White House. We're the liaison for
the Department of the Interior for all their guest
houses. If anybody in the White House wants to go to
the Virgin Islands, or wants to go to Camp Hoover, or
go to Cape Cod, or Grand Tetons in the national parks
and stuff, they have to come to this office. And then
we, in turn, have developed the relationship with the
Interior Department that we act as the liaison for it
[pounding].
SY:
Hm hmm.
RW: If anybody has guests coming into town and they're
looking for a hotel, something like that, it came to a
point where, Jesus, if you want to ask questions of
somebody, call the advance office. Well, that's the
way I felt like this office should operate. We should
work very closely with the speechwriters to make sure
they' ve got the proper information. We should work
very closely with Dick [Richard A.: ] Moore. So that
Dick Moore, who does the color and travels with the
President on the airplane, has constant communication
with the advance man. If there's a football player
that just broke his neck the night before, in a game ;
or if a football team just won a national championship,
