William J. Cudlip
July 18, 1968
Mr. John C. Whitaker
Nixon For President Committee
1726 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D. C. 2006
Dear John:
I have a few reservations and comments regarding the
recent Philadelphia drill. From my point of view it was
an advanceman's nightmare.
The principle question in my mind is who is in charge of
the advance? Bill Duncan and his staff or the advanceman
on Nixon's staff?
The Secret Service assumed many of the functions we have
been responsible for and without knowing who is responsible
for what it was a rather frustrating experience.
I know that we are going through a "shakedown cruise" with
the S.S., so many of my observations may already be resolved,
but I want to get my viewpoint on paper and some questions
answered.
Caravan
The S.S. took over this function lock, stock and barrel.
We had 11 cars. Cars 1-6 were for advance, security, and
RN. 7-11 were for PN and staff. The first six cars were
going to the Philadelphia Bulletin. The rest of the caravan
was turning off to the hotel.
Plane lands. Cars loaded. S.S. informs me that I am not
permitted in cars 1 thru 4. The Philadelphia police wouldn't
let me in 5 or 6. It wasn't practical for me to go in the
full staff cars which weren't following RN. Freud wouldn't
believe my reaction.

Mr. John C. Whitaker
July 18, 1968
Page 2
While I was turning purple the S.S. moved the caravan out
and I'll be damned if I wasn't left standing there watching
them go. I know we had a mix up on this detail. I think
it is rather funny today but it brings up several questions.
Who is responsible for the caravan?
I know the S.S. is responsible for cars 1, 2 and 3. We
handle 4 to the end and they tag on with the last one but
who's in charge for the whole package?
Location at airport?
This isn't a major problem. I think it can always be worked
out.
Route
Unless a parade is planned they can have their say here as
far as I am concerned.
RN's and PN's Car
The S.S. handle this. They seem to get Fords or Plymouths
as in the case of the Philadelphia Drill we had Cadillacs
for the staff and Mercurys for the RN's. I think we should
secure cars for the Nixons and turn them over to the S.S.
Who gives the word for the caravan to move out?
I had no control here. The S.S. moved the units out in both
directions. On departure to the Bulletin I was left standing
on the ramp.
On departure from the hotel to the airport I was still loading
staff cars 7 thru 11 when the S.S. moved out in 1 thru 6.
We caught up in a mad 10 block race. We never would have,
had the police not closed off the side streets. I still don't
know what happened to Ray Price or Len Garmet. We just
slammed the trunks and moved.

think the advanceman should be responsible for this,
period.
While I am on this subject another point comes to mind.
Dwight informed me that when you work our procedures out
with the S.S. John Erlickman will probably ride in car 1
and the advanceman in car 4. This is nonsense. We can't
brief John when the plane lands as we are too busy getting
RN moving in the right direction, telling the staff where
to go, watching the baggage and its loading, and moving the
TV crews out. The time to brief John is between the point
of departure and Stop No. 1. I think it is a must that
whereever the tour director travels, we travel. If the
S.S. doesn't want us in car 1 then maybe we should have a
staff car as no. 1 and the S.S. in cars 2, 3 and 4 with
RN and PN.
At this point the S.S. has assumed the responsibilities
of locating, moving out, and routing of the caravan. Will
this be their function? or ours?
Moving RN from point to point:
The S.S. has assumed this function. They plan the route
from location to location. They lead RN. Two of my movemen
patterns were changed. I guess that's okay but I sure would
like to be informed.
Does the S.S. assume this function from now on?
Hotel Accomodations:
Who picks the floor and suite, etc., for RN and PN?
I had one room assigned to staff. The S.S. commandeered :
for Flank Security. I wasn't informed. No real trouble
here, as it wasn't an overnight. Had it been, I would ha
yelled loudly.

Access to meetings:
I believe the S.S. should be informed that the advanceman
is allowed in to any room or function on the drill which
isn't contrary to our established procedure. I also think
that the physical set up of the function should be our
responsibility. We are open minded enough to accept their
advice and opinions but once agreement is reached I don't
think Bill Duncan or an S.S. man on tour should come in
and make changes according to his opinion, unless some gross
oversight has occured.
When RN was at lunch with the Pennsylvania delegation the
curtains in front of a glass door to the ballroom remained
open. It looked like the zoo. It was open to anyone who
wanted to look. I asked the S.S. to close the curtains and
give the meeting some privacy and was informed that security
prohibited closing the curtains and that they would remain
open. The whole point is ridiculous but our responsibility
includes such ridiculous details. Is this kind of thing now
under their jurisdiction?
During the advance and prior to the drill I went out of my
way to cooperate with the S.S. and their advanceman. We
agreed to procedures. I gave them copies of all my plans
and detail sheets. When it came time for the drill details
were changed without my knowledge or consent. Different
routes were planned, rooms were changed, etc. I think two
things should happen here.
First, John Erlickman should call the advanceman whatever
the hour with last minute agenda or itinerary changes, before
the plane arrives, and the advanceman should have a last
minute meeting with the S.S. to be certain everyone knows wh
the devil is going on and what has been changed. I called
the S.S. advance man for 6 hours trying to arrange a meeting
of this time and they would not respond.
I was at the airport Tuesday morning and the S.S. informed
that PN would accompany RN to the Bulletin. This changed
The routing of the caravan.
Pat's press conference at 11:00 a.m.
Mr. John C. Whitaker
July 18, 1968
Page 5
Ron Zeigler was on the scene and between us we killed that
idea on the spot, but the S.S. told me about the change,
not the Washington desk or the New York office.
Another observation I would like to make is that on RN's
departure 8 security men surrounded him. It didn't look
good. If people can't see or get to RN what's the use of
building crowds or RN going to the people. A dilemma I realize
but if we are going to run a campaign around such security
it is going to be awful sterile.
John, the S.S. is very capable and efficient. They do their
job extremely well. They did our job extremely well. And,
if in the final analysis the S.S. is going to run the advance
and assume our functions and responsibilities I would like
to be assigned to rally work.
As I saw my job in Philadelphia I was responsible for:
1. Obtaining 5 staff cars
2. Reserving rooms at the hotel
3. Feeding the staff
If the job has boiled down to that I'd rather work on building
spontaneous crowds.
I know this drill was an awkward one and I am not the type
to throw my crayons on the floor when something does not
go well but we need to be re-schooled or re-assigned quickly.
While I am on the platform I would like to make a few comments
about the staff on tour.
Their welfare is our concern. It's a pleasure to do anything
for anyone of them on the other hand I believe they should
be informed that when a scheduleis locked they can't change
it without approval of John Erlickman and the knowledge of the
advanceman.
PN was rescheduled to go to the Bulletin with RN. I didn't
know it.
Someone set up a Channel 10 TV taping session for PN at 2:15
in the hotel. I found out about it when I saw the equipment
set up in a room next to hers. I had it killed.
Mr. John C. Whitaker
July 18, 1968
Page 6
Another thing that will help, I believe, is that if staff
members who arrived on the tour are not going back with the
tour they should have the courtesy to tell the advanceman.
I still don't know where Ray Price or Len Garmet are and I
was tearing the hotel apart looking for Bob ksworth
when someone told me, "Oh, didn't you know he isn't going
back on the plane?". Obviously this changes our car
scheduling and the movement of the caravan. It helps to
know.
Peace!

Buie

Dear Spence:
I want to thank you for your assistance in
Springfield last week. It was a good drill and much
of the credit goes to you.
There is no doubt in my mind that when the time
comes, and that sure seems to be soon, you will handle
your own advance with skill and an ordinary amount
of nervous tension.
See you in "school."

Mr. Ken Cole
"Nixon for President"
445 Park Avenue
New York, New York
Dear Ken:
Pursuant to our telephone conversation concerning my
possible retention as an "Advance Man" during the
campaign, I have outlined below my general background
and qualifications for such a position.
I am 28 years of age; married; and have a degree in
Business Administration from Kings College in
Wilkes Barre, Pa.
My business experience includes:
Sales Manager for the Desert Inn and Stardust Hotel -
Las Vegas, Nevada: In this capacity I was
responsible for the contracting and servicing of
national, regional and local associations, industries
and fraternal organizations.
Account Executive with Fore, Inc. - The account for
which I was responsible was the National Right To
Work Committee. I was concerned with organizing
and directing state Right To Work Committees during
the Senate fight on repeal of Section 14B of the
Taft-Hartley Bill.
Staff member of Tamblyn & Brown, Inc. - While
employed by this fund-raising firm, my responsibilities
included the complete organizing and directing of
fund-raising campaigns for hospitals, universities
and private organizations (e.g. Boy's Club (s))
Vice President of Driscoll & Associates - In this
capacity I plan, organize and direct conventions
for national associations in all parts of the
United States. The meetings last from one to
five days and consist of from 500 to 14,000
people.
Thank you for your consideration, Ken. I hope this brief
outline will be of some use to you. I will be happy to
expand and/or explain any part of it when we meet at your
offices on Wednesday, August 21, at 3:30 PM. Until that
time, I remain,
Cordiall stugh yours,
Hugh C. Cannon

Dear John:
Enclosed is a personal resume of a lad who worked
with us as a law clerk until he finished school a couple
of weeks ago.
He's been a great supporter of RMN, and would like
to do something in the campaign. I think he'd be a pretty
good advance man. He's big, affable and intelligent. He'll
have to do some juggling of commitments, job-wise, etc.,
if he's to be free from August 15 on. I asked him to see
what he could do with his other schedules and to get in
touch with you as soon as he can. If he does break loose,
and if you can route him to the right person, I think he'd
be a real asset.
All the best.
Sincerely,
Ed
Edward A. McCabe

TO:
All Advance Men
FROM:
John C. Whitaker
John Ehrlichman, long time friend of RN and crack Advance Man from
1960, scheduler for RN in 1962, etc., etc., has come aboard, and
will be Field Tour Director. This is a move which I favor very
much.
Because John will be Field Tour Director it makes sense that he
deal directly with the Advance Men rather than myself. The fact
is that scheduling and being in charge of the Advance Man opera-
tion post-Miami is too much for one person to do, and since John
will be on the road with RN it is more logical that the Advance
Men report to him.
John will be in charge of the Advance Man School July 13th and
14th, and he would appreciate it if you would fill out the en-
closed questionnaire (the same day you receive it) and mail it
directly to:
Mr. John Ehrlichman
Nixon for President Committee
450 Park Avenue
New York, New York 10022
and mark the envelope "Hold for Arrival July 12th."
I am getting out of the advancing operation with some mixed
emotions because it has been great working with each of you to
get us from the snow of New Hampshire past the rain of Oregon.
I know that with John's leadership we will go on to the White
House on November 5th.
I will be looking forward to seeing each of you at the Advance
Man School.
With every good wish,
John C. Whitaker
JCW:jc
CC: J. Ehrlichman
R. Haldeman
It is good to hear that you will attend the Advanceman's
School to prepare yourself for the 1968 campaign.
To assist us in preparing the material for this school, will
you please fill out the enclosed questionnaire and return it the
same day that you receive this letter?
The fact that you are attending this school and everything
that you see and hear while there must be held strictly confi-
dential. Please do not make any plans for any other appoint-
ments during the two days we are in session.
You will need no extra paper or supplies; we will furnish
everything except a pen.
I'm looking forward to seeing you in New York on July 13th
and 14th.
Yours John sincerely,
John Ehrlichman
Tour Director

MEMO TO: JOHN EHRLICHMAN
FROM: HENRY HYDE
Eastern Airlines has volunteered the services of Mr. Charles F. Butler,
Assistant to the Vice-President for Federal Affairs, as an Advanceman - at
no charge, no obligation. I think Eastern might even pick up some expenses.
Butler was brought to my attention by Perkins McGuire, (Chairman of D.C.
Nixon for Pres. Committee) who is a good personal friend of the Washington
V-P of Eastern.
I had lunch with Butler and consider him to be quite good (even excellent).
Please call him at 202-298-5560.
