MONEY 450 ORDER Park PROMPTLY toe, N.Y.N., 5.4 MEMORANDUM January 13, 1969 TO: JAY WILKINSON FROM: BOB HALDEMAN I would like you to be in charge of the Richard Nixon Irish Setter birthday present. Attached is a telegram from one possible source. I understand there have been others. Please check around and find out what offers have been made, and do a little quick investigation as to which might be the best source and give me a recommendation. We would like to get the dog for RN as soon as possible and it should be at least six months, preferably about nine months, properly house trained, and other basic training. He does not want a hunter. He wants a dog that will be a companion dog so it should not have been trained to hunt. Please follow up on this as quickly as you can. If you have any questions, let me know. HRH cc: Larry Higby MEMORANDUM feb TO: Bob Haldeman January 9, 1969 FROM: Larry Higby RE: Miscellaneous details concerned with the move. Below are several small items that I discussed with various people in Washington that we should probably give some consideration to before moving. 1) TV sets As you are aware, there are now more than 100 color TV sets in various offices. These will be removed the week-end of the 20th. However, there is probably some valid need for certain people to, have TV's. If you concur, I'll draw up a preliminary list and we can move forward. 2) Bill Hopkins requested that you secure a good signature of RNs for use on White House correspondence. As soon as this signature is obtained, I suggest we forward it to John Brown and let him work out appropriate details. 3) You are to discuss with the President-elect who he wishes to designate as Presidential appointments and we are to forward that list with names and states as they wish to appear on their commissions to Bill Hopkins. 4) I'll coordinate the gathering of all personnel material per Hopkin's re- quest and forward same to him so that appropriate arrangements for payroll can be made. Memo regarding this has gone out to all heads of areas. 5) Do you want the set of TV sets removed from RNs bedroom? 6) I assume you'll want distaphones in stalled in your office and two locations in the Oval Office, in the small office and by RN's bed in the mansion. If so, Illl inform GSA. 7) Regarding possible space for Agnew in the EOB, I suggest I contact Stan Blair, advise him of our plans, and ask him what arrangements he would like to make for the Governor, if any, in the EOB office. Along with that I believe he should be advised of the situation existing in terms of moving on the 20th, in case he wants to make any arrangements for appropriate desk space in the Governor's office in the White House. 8) Many of the BOB offices located on the first floor of the Executive Office Building will be moved. You should talk to Mayo about our plans concerning the first floor, and advise him of the fact that we will be moving several offices. We now have GSA finding alternate space for these offices, and will advise Mayo of where these locations are. LH/mc MEMORANDUM TO: Harry Fleming FROM: Larry Higby January 10, 1969 GSA has requested that we inform them of what of our office space in FOB #7 will be vacated. Several of the people in offices we have there will be sent down to the Executive Office Building so space will be available. Could you please forward this information to me so I can appropriate arrangements with GSA? LH/mc January 10, 1969 Mr. Charles Rotchford Government Service Administration The White House Washington, D.C. Dear Charles: Thank you for all your help while we were in Washington. You made my job a hundred. times easier. I look forward to working with you during the coming years. Sincerely, Lawrence Higby LH/mc January 10, 1969 Mr. William Hopkins Personnel The White House Washington, D.C. Dear Bill: Thank you for all your help while we were in Washington. You made my job a hundred times easier. I look forward to working with you during the coming years. Sincerely, Lawrence Higby LH/mc MEMORANDUM TO: H. R. Haldeman FROM: Larry Higby RE: Allen Warner January 10, 1969 Allen Warner worked with the New Yorkers for Nixon group during the last campaign. He worked as a volunteer. His title was Assistant Director of Special Events. In speaking with the Director of Special Events I learned the following. He is a very hard worker; there every night and every week-end. He is between 26 and 28 years old. Works very well with other people. The Director said further that he couldn't say enough nice things about Allen and thought he should be considered for a position. He would do an excellent job. He said he believed Allen was interested in the area of transportation administration and would like to work with Volpe. Apparently he has already sent a resume to Volpe, but has received no response. In speaking with Rita Hauser who cooridnated the New Yorkers for Nixon, she mentioned the fact that the Special Events area was one of the stronger areas of her organization. Recommendation: I suggest I contact Allen Warner and secure from him more detail on his intentions and interest and if it is transportation forward a resume on him together with an appropriate covering letter from you to Volpe for consideration. LH/mc MEMORANDUM TO: Jay Wilkinson January 10, 1969 FROM: Larry Higby RE: Movement of Haldeman's New York office goods As we discussed the other day, Haldeman maintains an office at his residence at the Wyndham Hotel. Would you please provide him with four or five moving boxes the first part of next week so that he can pack up that office material. On the 18th when you have the GSA truck load up here have them swing by the Wyndham Hotel and pick up whatever materials he has there and transport them on down with the rest of that gear to the White House. Thank you for your cooperation. LH/mc MEMORANDUM TO: Chuck Stuart FROM: Larry Higby RE: Inaugural Activities January 10, 1969 Haldeman requests that you provide Jay Wilkinson and his wife with complimentary tickets to the Inaugural Ball. Apparently because of Jay's position during the campaign. This is not standard practice but he sweated longer than most of us and will be with us during the next eight years. It only seems appropriate. Also, per our discussion of the other day will you please phone McCune's aide and place me on the staff list at the Hilton during the inaugural period. I can assure you I'll be working. Primarily I will be down there to oversee the moving-in that will take place during that period. Also, to confirm ticket needs that Haldeman has regarding events under your immediate responsibility. He'll need 12 tickets for the Gala and 10 tickets for both the concert and the Ball; two of the tickets in each of those groups can be charged, but the re- mainder of them should be complimentary. Thanks for your cooperation. LH/mc TO KEN COLE - WHITE HOUSE STAFF LIST Haldeman Brown Cole Higby Brown Flemming. Wilkenson Ziglan. Bull Stephens Woods Junich whelshan Harlow Pasman.

While I do not know exactly where, I am sure he could make a contribution to some part of the HEW operations, not necessarily in Washington either but somewhere. I would appreciate any thoughts or consideration you might be able to give this. I probably sound like one of the thousand letters I know you are receiving daily, but I am sure this guy could be of help. Sincerely, LH/mc encl.

Higby 450 Park Avenue New York, N.Y. Re: Resume - Allan Wiesblott Dear Sir: Enclosed you will find a brief resume of my scholastic and professional activities, to date. As a young man it is impossible to implant my energy and concern on the two dimensional world of paper and print. I have grown up in Central Los Angeles and attended school with a cultural breakdown which was approximately 60% Black, 20% Oriental, and 20% Caucasian. I attended a University while many of my friends did not. In most cases it was unlikely that the situation was thus because of my being "a better man." My concern for both my generation and minority groups and their desire to seek a valid place in our society stretches far beyond a mere academic query. I, along with many professors, sociologists and politicians, have researched the problems now plaguing the American society. However, research, in and of itself, cannot bring about the sensitivity of solving America's "Gordion Knot" societal complexities. I believe I have that sensitivity. Please note the enclosed list of gentlemen from whom you may seek personal and professional references. If you have any questions, you may contact me at the above address.

December 18, 1968 MEMORANDUM FOR LARRY HIGBY From: A S. Eagleburger Subject: Possible Letter-writers As I told you on the telephone, Merriam is not interested in the job. However, he gave me the names of two other people who are interested and might be worth looking at (he is sending me their resumes). I know neither of them. They are: -- Peter Gall. Presently Senator Kuchel's press man. He's 32 years old, a graduate of Princeton and a former reporter for the Wall Street Journal. Merriam tells me he writes very well. -- Bruce Barr. He's 33, and now works for the Senate Republican Policy Committee. In addition to the above, State is now putting together a list of Foreign Service Officers for me. I'll look them over and send up my recommendations in a day or two. If the two names above are out of the question let me know, otherwise I'll look over the resumes and give you a recommendation on them as well.
