Congressional Recommendations
Pdt
After our telephone conversation this morning, I have moved to correct
any deficiencies that might cause trouble with our friends on the Hill.
The following steps have been taken to alleviate any such problems.
(1) My secretaries have been informed to put through any Congress-
ional calls to me immediately.
(2) The secretarial staff in our political operation has been dir-
ected to log all incoming Congressional calls and to indicate who
answered and/or returned the call and at what time.
(3) Strict orders have been given to answer all Congressional mail
immediately upon receipt in this office. I will personally see to
it that this directive is followed through.
(4) Bob Mardian is in the process of visiting each member of the
Legislative leadership group to explain our operation.
(5) George Moore, former Civil Service Commissioner, has been des-
ignated by the Legislative leadership group as our liaison. Bob
Mardian and I have met with him and will be working closely to pre-
vent any further problems.
(6) I am drafting a letter to be sent to all Republican members of
Congress explaining our acknowledgment procedure.
I would appreciate your seeing to it that Bryce Harlow gets a copy of
this memorandum.
January 10, 1969
To: John D. Ehrlichman
From: Edward L. Morgan
Subject: Jack Rourke Proposal
Rourke's ideas are good but hardly new or overwhelming. I wrote the
reply to him for your signature as I did because I have the feeling we could
get backed quickly into a corner if we acquiesced in the theory that this is
Jack Rourke's brand new original idea.
The proposal is simply to have the Boss do a bi-monthly television
Q&A on a nationwide basis with a telephone format.

Dear Jack:
Thanks very much for sending me the candid shot taken during an
obvious moment of serious reflection. Unfortunately, it fell into the hands
of my staff who now take great delight in passing it about the office.
I have read both of your proposals with interest and I know that
this kind of an idea has been kicking around among the staff for some time.
There is no question that it has a great deal of potential if handled properly.
Kindest personal regards.

Dear John:
I'm sending along a candid shot of you "thinking"
before you became so famous.
Congratulations to you on the appointment. I know
you must be keeping busy day and night.
Bob Haldeman tells me he turned over to you a
presentation we made for Mr. Nixon regarding tele-
vision reporting to the people himself - Part #1 -
and Part #2 of the presentation has to do with
electing governors and senators in 1970.
I'll be interested to get your reaction to these as
soon as you have a chance to communicate.
Best.

TWO MAGNIFICENT PROPOSALS FOR
PRESIDENT RICHARD NIXON
AND
THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE
From:
JACK ROURKE PRODUCTIONS
3805 West Magnolia Boulevard
Burbank, California
91505
(213) 845-3709
PROPOSAL NUMBER ONE
A plan for
Unique Personalized Communication
on a regular basis
between
The President of the United States
and
the people of the United States
and
the rest of the world.
PRELUDE
JRP
Produced the "Ask Richard Nixon Telethon"
prior to the Oregon Primary on a statewide
network in May 1968
JRP
Produced nine one hour Richard Nixon Special
Panel - Audience Shows on Regional networks
in September and October of 1968 originating
in Chicago, Cleveland, Los Angeles, Detroit,
Philadelphia, Atlanta, Dallas, Boston and
New York
JRP
Produced the election eve Ask Richard Nixon
two-hour telethons, coast to coast on NBC's
full network on November 4, 1968, originating
in Burbank, California.
(All "live")
With great effectiveness
Unqualified success.
NOW THEN
JRP proposes that it produce a series of
"ASK PRESIDENT NIXON" one-hour telethons -
to be presented on nationwide television
once every two months for the next eight years.
This "Report To The Nation" or
"Report To The World" will institute a
new era in communication between the
Chief Executive and the people.
THE FORMAT
Simple, concise, unique, compelling,
informative, direct, and powerfully
persuasive.
The Star:
President Nixon
The Supporting Cast:
The Family
The Moderator:
An occasional Cabinet Member,
an occasional foreign dignitary.
One hundred telephone operators.
President Nixon answers questions telephoned to him
from all over the country.
It's like having a heart-to-heart talk with each
citizen in his own living room
answering his
questions.
And an analysis of the thousands of questions that
come in provide an accurate indication of what the
people want to know.
THE FINANCING
Alternatives
The three networks pool their resources,
divide the expenses.
Sponsorship by one or more national
companies on an identification basis
only.
(no commercials)
"This program is brought to you as a
public service by such and such a
company".
full sponsorship - including commercials.
A wonderful concept
Now proposal number two
A Proposal of great significance to
The Republican National Committee.
Purpose - to elect Republican Governors,
Senators and Congressmen.
Here's what happens
JRP produces monthly or even weekly fifteen
or thirty minute personalized programs for
Candidates for office
in each state.
Essence of the format - an interrogator asks
an incumbent or potential candidate for re-
election (two years from now) all kinds of
questions - some personal some on issues -
questions, the answers to which will show
the candidate to be informed, courageous,
warm and likeable. The kind of man who should
be in office.
The candidate is not campaigning. He is in effect
an informal newsman.
These programs will be video taped or filmed and
distributed to give the candidate maximum exposure.
And, in the course of doing the programs the
candidates will learn all they should know about
the television (and radio) medium.
DISTRIBUTION
The programs will be made available to the
stations in key cities in the candidate's home
state in one of these ways.
provided to the station, at no cost to
the station, for use on the air as a
public service on a regular basis, funds
for the production and distribution to be
furnished by the Republican National
Committee and/or the State Committees.
provided to the stations with "breaks",
in which the station may insert commercials.
provided to the station with commercials
already inserted for a private enterprise
company. The company sponsors the program,
just as the Richfield Oil Company might
sponsor the Walter Cronkite News on a
statewide network.
This technique will provide the public with
a useful informative program to watch and
will elect many Governors, Senators and
Congressmen.
One more thought
JRP would like to produce or put together
special events
White House Functions
Inaugurations (two)
Special films recording the
history of this administration.

board you on flight #125 to Palm Springs December 5th, we
failed to ascertain how payment for the one way ticket would
be handled. As I learned later, Mr. Erlichman, you chose to
drive rather than wait it out at fog bound Los Angeles.
If you have not already done so, would you please return
the unused ticket #017100444119 in the stamped self-addressed
envelope enclosed, in order that we may keep out ticket audit
revenue accounting office smiling.
I enjoyed meeting and talking with you, Mr. Erlichman,
and if I can be of any assistance to you at any time, please
do not hesitate to call on me.
Thank you for your interest in Western Airlines.
Happy Holidays!

The attached invoice for $720. 62 are expenses run up by
the Task Force meetings last Friday and Saturday. The $47. 60 for
limousine service is a result of Secretary Hardin's representative
renting a limousine to attend the Task Force meeting. I am afraid
we will have to absorb it.

RE:
RALLY MAN'S SCHOOL
The Rally Man's School has been scheduled for Saturday and Sunday,
August 24 and 25, at the Statler Hilton Hotel, 33rd Street at
7th Avenue, New York City. The Advance Man School will be conducted
concurrently and on occasions the Rally team and the Advance team
will meet jointly over the weekend.
We hope that you are all able to attend.
Bill Killgallon will make all hotel reservations for the
rally team. Would you please notify him as soon as possible (and not
later than August 15) as to whether you plan to attend. Bill's number
August 1-9 is (305) 865-1500 at the Hilton Plaza in Miami. After
August 9 contact him in New York at (212) 661-6400. He will need to know
whether you need a hotel room for Friday and Saturday - we are assuming
that those who live in the New York area will not need a hotel room.
You will be sent an agenda for the School shortly after the
National Convention. In the meantime, we suggest that you review the Rally
Manual carefully and prepare any questions that might arise so the
manual can be covered section by section.
The purpose of the School is to button up details on techniques
prio r to the big crunch after Labor Day.
Again, we hope all of you can attend -- and we'll look
forward to seeing you on the 24th.
Please purchase your own tourist airline tickets and turn in
your expense account following the School. Your hotel bill in New York
will be covered.

JULY 13-14
STATLER HILTON HOTEL, NEW YORK CITY

I hope to see each of you at this school. This school is essential
to button up details on advance techniques for post-Miami advancing.
Each of you will soon receive in the mail a new advance man's manual
with all new procedures on advancing including those required by the
Secret Service. Please study this manual carefully and note your questions
and organize your questions chapter by chapter as we discuss the
manual at the Advance Man's school.
Your air travel and other expenses should be submitted to me as normal
expense accounts as soon as the school is over.
Bill Killgallon (office: 212-530-2231; home 212-GR 7-1724) is advancing
the advance man's school. Please phone Bill no later than June 19 (he
will be leaving town for 2 weeks) and advise him (1) if you are coming
to the school; (2) whether you will need a hotel room on both Friday and
Saturday nights. It is assumed those who live in the New York area will
not need hotel rooms but they should still advise Bill if they are coming
to the school.
The schedule for the school is as follows:
Saturday, July 13, 1968
10:30-11:30 a.m.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 31, 1968
TO: John Whitaker
FROM: Cy Laughter
John, your office has asked us twice to get some sports
people for some occasion.
The first time was in Atlanta, Georgia for a Fund Raising
Dinner. I contacted Bob McCallister and Gay Bewer, pro-golfers,
and asked them, upon being contacted by you, to do what they could
to get a few other golfers to attend. Your office contacted them,
they went to the hotel and waited, and no one was there to meet
them. They, along with several others, finally left.
I believe Ed Nixon went out to the course the next day and
apologized and also sent a letter.
The second time was when Henry Hide called, asking for some-
one in Chicago last Sunday. I called Benny MacRae of the Chicago
Bears and asked him if he would attend and also bring a couple of
other players. I called Henry and asked him to call Benny and
call me back. By the way, Henry said we could have a jet to pick
up anyone Benny drove into Chicago at his own expense.
Henry has not called me back as of one week. However, I
understand that after Benny drove to Chicago and stayed at a
motel waiting with other members of the Bears, he also was not
contacted by anyone. His Sunday was wasted.
John, I don't know if you realize how tough it is to get
sports or celebrities to volunteer to help our candidate. It
is very difficult, I can assure you. And, at the rate your
office is going, we'll be losing them as fast as we get them.
I would like you to look into this, and we can then sit down
and talk. It certainly is not good the way things are going now.
If it happens again, you have notice that some other arrangements
will have to be made, as we will have to advance our own athletes
or celebrities. I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you.

VIDEO-TAPED REMARKS TO 1968 ADVANCEMEN
(About 75 Advancemen and Rally Men will be meeting for their
"schools" at
the Statler-Hilton in New York City on Saturday, August
24th
and
Sunday,
August 25th. On that Sunday they will hear from various members of the
staff and the Secret Service. RN's remarks will be screened that day.)
I. After a day of "school" the new men are realizing that advancing re-
quires dedication and hard work.
A. Our Advancemen have always had the admiration of the press and
public for their near flawless execution and devotion to their
jobs.
B. I know and sincerely appreciate the hardships involved -
Hard travel
Poor conditions
Absence from family
C. There will be little opportunity for us to talk together on these
trips. But I know what you're doing, and I know that it all would
be impossible without your good work.
D. I had planned to be present at your "school" and I wish I were.
But as you know from your schoolteachers here, in every schedule
we must have "staff time" before a big event.
1. While you're preparing yourself for the big event coming, I am too.
But we'll meet soon, on the road and,working together, I am confident
that we'll win.
Thank you.
