MEMORANDUM
TO:
Bob Haldeman
Truth Squad (c/o Harry Flemming, RNC)
FROM:
Murray Chotiner
DATE:
October 20, 1968 -- 11:00 a.m.
Chapman's friend reports that in conversation with some people
on board the Humphrey plane that there has been no deals made
yet for cessation of the bombing.
They said that if the bombing is stopped, no particular candidate
will benefit from it. The reports are that LBJ is not pressuring
anyone -- he is not telling anyone. to "get this at any cost. "
One of the men said that LBJ is eager for "positive" outcome, but
is not pushing. LBJ does not want to be hung up with something
that could boomerang.
Our friend said he was told that the Saigon Government is the key
to the operations. They do not have a veto power but have some-
thing very close to it. The Saigon Government can refuse to
accept any plan that comes out of the negotiations in Paris --
similar to the United States refusal to accept negotiations in
Geneva in 1954.
The Saigon Government can resign in a body, leaving the United
States holding the bag. They can say they will fight until the
last bullet. All in all, the Saigon Government holds the
cards on whether there will be a real cessation of bombing.
The Saigon Government insists on being represented in the talks,
and are objecting to Viet Cong being included in negotiations.
Therefore, there is some discussion about using the same formula
used in negotiations between East and West Germany where all
of them sat one foot away from the table.
On the military side, our friend said that both the Viet Cong and
the South Vietnamese are getting clobbered. Some captured docu-
ments disclosed that the North Vietnamese are making some very
strange political assessments.
These documents revealed that the Viet Cong feel Wallace is a
nuisance element. The Viet Cong are convinced that anything
coming out of the negotiations in Paris will be most favorable
for them.
Page - 2 -
These documents state that the Viet Cong have an impact on
American lives and elections in the U.S., and are proud of their
achievements and their impact on power.
Chapman's friend asked how much power could Russia bring to bear.
The answer to this was very marginal.
HHH said this is a ticklish kind of operation. He said suppose
you get a cease fire and then nothing happens. This is worse
for me than if we did nothing.
This could be the issue that decides the fate of HHH, or it could
drag on him like a heavy load. If nothing is done between now and
the election, HHH is left inheriting LBJ's state of suspended
animation.
THIS IS THE STATE OF THE VIETNAM SITUATION AS OF LAST NIGHT.
Our friend reports that the quality of HHH organization has im-
proved but people are very disparaging and amateurish. The press
people feel that HHH's Q & A Sessions with houswives is a big
waste of time.
Valenti is still with HHH, acting as the eyes and ears for LBJ.
From time to time Valenti offers counsel and advice, but HHH
pays little attention to him.
Our friend says that the trade unions are either sitting on their
hands or just can't get the people out. There is something wrong
when you can't draw decent crowds -- like Kennedy and Johnson
did -- in the industrial cities.
HHH's voice is terrible now, it is breaking almost constantly.
Chapman's friend heard from Martin S. Hayden that HHH is taking
a beating in Michigan. Our friend asked Hayden if he thought
RN could win Michigan and Hayden said yes, unless some unforseen
thing happens in the last 10 days of the campaign, which is most
unlikely.
The train trip which is tentatively scheduled to leave from Pitts.
on October 28 will travel approximately 100 miles.
Tuesday, October 22 HHH will be in New York, Fort Worth, Dallas,
Austin, Waco and San Antonio, Texas (overnight in San Antonio).
Some of his staff thinks he should re-institute the Harlem trip.
If HHH decides to do this, he will remain in New York Tuesday
the 22nd.
Page - 3 -
There is a lot of bitterness among HHH entourage about McCarthy
refusing to endorse HHH.
The press corps took a private poll and are betting, at $1.00
per person, how many electoral votes each candidate will wind
up with -- the poll revealed that RN will get 400 votes.
Our friend says that George Ball is losing favor and is being
criticized by the political pros, who resent his interference.
Ball was person largely responsible for HHH statement on Viet-
nam, which was made in Salt Lake City.

FROM: Murray Chotiner
DATE: October 17, 1968
It is suggested that our speakers point out the fallacy
of the HHH proposals concerning Social Security as
follows:
It is inconceivable that a contender for the office of
President of the United States should express so many
different positions on as many issues as has Hubert
Horatio Humphrey.
On September 25 in Seal Beach, California, and in front
of an audience of elderly Americans, Humphrey proposed an
immediate 50% increase in Social Security benefits to be
paid for out of general Government revenues, rather than
increased employee-employer contributions to the Social
Security fund At the same time, he proposed an increase
in the base on which Social Security taxes are paid.
This week in an interview in the October 21 issue of U.S.
News and World Report Mr. Humphrey has apparently changed
his mind. In answer to a question on his proposed 50%
increase, Mr. Humphrey said, "That's over a four-year
period. It would be paid for out of the Social Security
Trust Fund, with the exception of some of the medicaid --
the drugs that are presently paid for out of general revenues.
We feel that certain facts about both Mr. Humphrey's original
proposal and his apparent change of mind should be brought to
the attention of the American people.
The rate of inflation under the Johnson-Humphrey Administration
has reached nearly 5% per year. With the free spending
policies Humphrey has been advocating, it would hardly be less
under his administration. At that rate, in four years a 50%
increase would be a spending power increase of only 20%. 30%
of his increase would be wiped out by inflation -- an inflation
that this unrealistic and cynical proposal would itself help
to create.

approximately 15 billion dollars a year. If, as
Mr. Humphrey first proposed, it were paid for out of
general tax revenues, then taxes, the rate of inflation
or both would have to go up.
The original Humphrey proposal was cruel and callous
enough, without making it worse. Humphrey is all too
aware of how cruel and callous it was; and when the heat
became too great, he decided to change the meaning of his
original words. His improvement is no better.
How long must the American people tolerate such vacillative,
cynical and unwise promises?

MEMORANDUM

TO: John Whitaker
COPY TO: Peter Flanigan
FROM: Bill Timmons
SUBJECT: Congressional support
As you know, it is unlikely that Mr. Nixon will drag into office enough candidates
to give the Republican Party control of the U.S. House of Representatives or make
truly substantial gains in the Senate. In many states and districts RN is running
well ahead of the locals, but they are unable to properly identify with the Presi-
dential candidate.
Therefore, I have a proposal: one afternoon around the 1st of November set aside
four hours for Mr. Nixon to telephone each of the top 15 Senate and leading 40
Congressional candidates to wish them success and briefly chit-chat about the
campaign.
On the receiving end of the call, Senate and/or House candidates can arrange a
press conference with television cameras, Nixon back drop picture, and prepare
a hand-out news release claiming victory.
These call could be amplified for local reporters and would serve two purposes:
1). Give RN local news exposure; and
2). Provide a close tie-in between RN and local candidates
I believe it would take 4 minutes for each call-or 3 hours and 40 minutes for all
55 calls (actually some candidates will not be able to arrange local coverage).
If the proposal is adopted, I could bring several of my volunteer fieldmen to New
York to place the calls and furnish RN with a brief background sheet on each can-
didate and Congressional district for referral purposes. In addition, our team
could, by telephone, make the necessary armangements with the candidates before
hand to assure the success of the project.
Since Mr. Nixon is not doing personal endorsement radio/TV tapes, this plan would
be helpful to Congressional and Senatorial candidates.
I urge favorable consideration.

MEMORANDUM:
TO: Representative Donald L. Jackson
FROM: Alexander K. Christie
Subject: Alan Greenspan's statement to Lee M. Cohn of the Washington
Daily Star on Richard M. Nixon's acceptance of high unemployment as
the price for curbing inflation.
While I as an individual and an economist with 30 years experience in
Labor-Management Relations might find myself in general agreement with
this statement and understand what is being said, yet there is room
for disagreement. The timing and content are bad.
This interview should not have been given. It revives the old myth that
has been perpetuated over the years that the Republican Party is not
concerned about unemployment to any degree. It unnecessarily revives
fears among union members that the party does not give a damn about
the working man.
Hubert Humphrey who is hard up for bones to pick on, grabed this
one with relish while on the N.B.C. Today program", Friday, October 11,
1968. He said he intends: 11 asking Mr. Nixon about this statement.
The working man and the young people are due an explanation."
No one should issue any statements on behalf of Mr. Nixon other than
those cleared for release by Mr. Nixon or Bob Finch.
Lets not put the Vice President into office through inept and pre-
mature interviews or releases.

IN VIEW OF THE FACT THAT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS OFTEN IDENTIFIED

DEMOCRATS, HOW ABOUT FURTHER IDENTIFYING DICK WITH CATHOLICS.
THIS COULD BE DONE BY HAVING A PERSONAL FRIEND, SUCH AS FATHER
MARTIN MCMANUS TRAVELLING WITH THE TROUPE FOR A PERIOD OF TIME.
THE REASON FOR HAVING HIM DO SO, IN THE EVENT OF A QUERY FROM THE
PRESS, WOULD BE THAT FATHER MCMANUS, WHO HOLDS A DEGREE OF DOCTOR
OF THEOLOGY AND IS FORMER EAN OF SCHOOL OF LAW AT THE UNIVERSITY OF
SAN DIEGO, IS ASSISTING IN THE PREPARATION OF MATERIAL DEALING

Attached are questions used in Network TV program
last week. Exact ratings are not available at this time
but Shakespeare estimates a 13-15 for the program.
QUESTIONS ASKED ON HALF-HOUR CBS NETWORK TV
Wednesday, October 9, 1968, 9:30 P.M.
1. General Curtis LeMay just became Governor Wallace's
running mate today, and he immediately said that he would use
a nuclear bomb if he had to to win in Vietnam. How do you
feel about the use of nuclear weapons in Vietnam or elsewhere?
2. Mr. Nixon, what would you do as President to bring law
and order back to America and what is your definition of law
and order?
3. Mr. Nixon, would you outline your policies and ideas
towards bringing the dissenting students and dissatisfied
McCarthy supporters back into the mainstream of American
political life?
4. (Question from a woman) Do you think we should contin-
uously give foreign aid to other countries when here in our own
country we have senior citizens and older people who are living
on Social Security and pensions that are far below what they
should be?
5. Mr. Nixon, the Senate now has blocked the nomination of
Abe Fortas as Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Who do
you plan to nominate if you're elected?
-2-
6. Vietnam is a very perplexing and troublesome problem
for the American people. There doesn't seem to be a dispute
that we made a terrible mistake by getting involved there.
Now I'm glad to see that Mr. Humphrey has moved away from the
Administration position and has advocated the halt of bombing
in North Vietnam, and I was just wondering, sir, what is your
position on Vietnam at this time?
7. Vice President Humphrey has said that Governor Wallace
is quote the apostle of hate and racism unquote. Agree or
disagree?
8. What is your goal or aim for the United States of
America if you become President of the most powerful nation in
the world? As to its moral leadership? For it seems that
leadership is being lost or is about lost in the world today.

Wiley says he made a great number of calls to

Wiley also said he knows we have "lost big wads

If you decide four stops in Texas, Agnew will not goback after Corpus
Christi and Midland this weekend. Whitaker's plan for four stops in-town
Fort Worth and San Antonio, prop-stop Amarillo-El Paso: logistically
this entails leaving 810 Fifth Avenue 8:30 Eastern time, arrive Century
Plaza 10:50 West Coast time.
Obviously we cannot do everything from the above list. Let me know,

October 15, 1968
(News Summary)
UPI reports David Rockefeller is being considered
for Treasury Secretary, which would make two Rockys in
Cabinet if Nelson becomes Secretary of Defense, which is
also rumored. Another Treasury possibility is said to be
Arthur Burns; also Alan Greenspan for Council of Economic
Advisors.

1. Klei n's office tells me the AP meeting on the 17th in
RN's apartment includes:
Sam Blackman
Harry Montgomery
Pat Morin
plus a photographer and a stenotypist. I assume you have full knowledge
of the stenotypist and this meeting being on the record because when we last
talked about it on phone, you were talking about the possibility of a backgrounder
rather than on the record and said you were going to dicsuss it with Klein.
Just trying to avoid any communications gap.
2.
Volpe talked to Cardinal Cushing and Cushing feels "unwise
for him to see RN" SO I am closing the books on that one.
3. Volpe. Cotton, Brooke have been invited by me to be in the

FROM: JOHN WHITAKER
RE:
NEW ENGLAND REGIONAL TV - OCTOBER 18
many pots
Senator Cotton's AA told me that RN asked Senator Cotton to be in the
audience for the New England TV program. Seems to me that a decision
is required on what politicians are allowed at this program.
I would recommend the following:
Maine - Senator Margaret Chase Smith only if she is well by that time
New Hampshire - Gubernatorial candidate Walter Peterson and Senator Cotton
Vermont - Gubernatorial candidate Deane Davis, Senators Prouty and Aiken
Massachusetts - Governor Volpe and Senator Brooke
Rhode Island - Governor Chafee
Connecticut - Senatorial candidate Ed May
Then you come to the question of who sits next to Mrs. Nixon. My thought would
be Knt Goudy (sp?) the voice of New England (for the Red Sox). He can probably
be obtained via Bud Wilkinson since they are friends. Another possibility would
be Ted Williams and/or Karl Yaztremsky (sp?). Also depending on how much
coverage you have you may wish to include Governor Rockefeller and Javits
if you get into New York State.

HALDEMAN FROM HARLOW
10/13
For information and such action as deemed advisable:
(1) Olds, as I mentioned, consulted Yarmolinski on
staffing a Nixon Administration -- had him come to N.Y.C. from
Harvard for the discussion. Would blow the roof off the Capitol
if it were known.
(2) Olds has submitted to Arthur Burns mimeographed
forms to complete -- names of people for posts in Commerce,
Treasury and so on. Burns believes he is doing this all across
the country.
(3) You recall Olds' approach to Jim Webb, head of
Space.
Just a reminder, therefore. If John Mitchell still
believes, as he said, "Olds is turned off," he has another
think a-coming! RN also thinks Olds is turned off.

Bill
FROM:
Bryce Harlow
Proctor and Gamble Board Chairman Neil McElroy -- former
Defense Secretary -- telephoned yesterday (Wednesday). He being
my Economic Supreme Being, I ardently listened.
He refers to RN's October 21st visit to Cincinnati, McElroy's
home city. He was eager to offer (not to press) a small convivial
dinner put on by himself with a select few of RN's close friends
in Cincinnati. He thought RN might wish to do this since it would
give him respite from the train.
He was hopeful that RN would recognize this not as something
to burden, but something to offer release. If at all interested,
McElroy is reachable at 513-562-3662.
I of course - repeat - of course assured him that his wish
would be put into appropriate hands. Like yours.
I asked McElroy his judgment of the HHH bombing halt speech,
thinking RN might value his reaction. He said it was "so weasly
as not to amount to much. Obviously he is trying to buy McCarthy
support but without stirring up the animals. I doubt that will
get him very far."
He did say that he is increasingly concerned lest the Wallace
support is quietly building and may well be considerably larger than
the polls are showing.
October 8, 1968
This statement was made tonight at a $100 a plate
dinner for Democratic Senatorial candidate, Paul O'Dwyer in
New York.
Paul O'Dwyer has also refused to endorse the
Democratic presidential candidate.
McCarthy once again declined to endorse Hubert Humphrey.
"A call goes out for party unity just as it did a
year ago. It was not acceptable then and it is not any more
acceptable today."
McCarthy said his efforts to change the direction of
the Democratic Party were not aimed at getting anybody
elected.
"There is no reason why the direction of the Party could
not be changed with a presidential candidate this year. "
(That is the exact quote though it does not track).
There are three conditions which McCarthy set forth
which would have to be fulfilled before he endorsed Hubert
Humphrey.
1. A change in the Vietnam policy.
2. Restructuring the draft.
3. Restructuring the Democratic Party Machinery.

The reports are that LBJ is not pressuring\nanyone -- he is not telling anyone. to \"get this at any cost. \"\nOne of the men said that LBJ is eager for \"positive\" outcome, but\nis not pushing. LBJ does not want to be hung up with something\nthat could boomerang.\nOur friend said he was told that the Saigon Government is the key\nto the operations. They do not have a veto power but have some-\nthing very close to it. The Saigon Government can refuse to\naccept any plan that comes out of the negotiations in Paris --\nsimilar to the United States refusal to accept negotiations in\nGeneva in 1954.\nThe Saigon Government can resign in a body, leaving the United\nStates holding the bag. They can say they will fight until the\nlast bullet. All in all, the Saigon Government holds the\ncards on whether there will be a real cessation of bombing.\nThe Saigon Government insists on being represented in the talks,\nand are objecting to Viet Cong being included in negotiations.\nTherefore, there is some discussion about using the same formula\nused in negotiations between East and West Germany where all\nof them sat one foot away from the table.\nOn the military side, our friend said that both the Viet Cong and\nthe South Vietnamese are getting clobbered. Some captured docu-\nments disclosed that the North Vietnamese are making some very\nstrange political assessments.\nThese documents revealed that the Viet Cong feel Wallace is a\nnuisance element. The Viet Cong are convinced that anything\ncoming out of the negotiations in Paris will be most favorable\nfor them.\nPage - 2 -\nThese documents state that the Viet Cong have an impact on\nAmerican lives and elections in the U.S., and are proud of their\nachievements and their impact on power.\nChapman's friend asked how much power could Russia bring to bear.\nThe answer to this was very marginal.\nHHH said this is a ticklish kind of operation. He said suppose\nyou get a cease fire and then nothing happens. This is worse\nfor me than if we did nothing.\nThis could be the issue that decides the fate of HHH, or it could\ndrag on him like a heavy load. If nothing is done between now and\nthe election, HHH is left inheriting LBJ's state of suspended\nanimation.\nTHIS IS THE STATE OF THE VIETNAM SITUATION AS OF LAST NIGHT.\nOur friend reports that the quality of HHH organization has im-\nproved but people are very disparaging and amateurish. The press\npeople feel that HHH's Q & A Sessions with houswives is a big\nwaste of time.\nValenti is still with HHH, acting as the eyes and ears for LBJ.\nFrom time to time Valenti offers counsel and advice, but HHH\npays little attention to him.\nOur friend says that the trade unions are either sitting on their\nhands or just can't get the people out. There is something wrong\nwhen you can't draw decent crowds -- like Kennedy and Johnson\ndid -- in the industrial cities.\nHHH's voice is terrible now, it is breaking almost constantly.\nChapman's friend heard from Martin S. Hayden that HHH is taking\na beating in Michigan. Our friend asked Hayden if he thought\nRN could win Michigan and Hayden said yes, unless some unforseen\nthing happens in the last 10 days of the campaign, which is most\nunlikely.\nThe train trip which is tentatively scheduled to leave from Pitts.\non October 28 will travel approximately 100 miles.\nTuesday, October 22 HHH will be in New York, Fort Worth, Dallas,\nAustin, Waco and San Antonio, Texas (overnight in San Antonio).\nSome of his staff thinks he should re-institute the Harlem trip.\nIf HHH decides to do this, he will remain in New York Tuesday\nthe 22nd.\nPage - 3 -\nThere is a lot of bitterness among HHH entourage about McCarthy\nrefusing to endorse HHH.\nThe press corps took a private poll and are betting, at $1.00\nper person, how many electoral votes each candidate will wind\nup with -- the poll revealed that RN will get 400 votes.\nOur friend says that George Ball is losing favor and is being\ncriticized by the political pros, who resent his interference.\nBall was person largely responsible for HHH statement on Viet-\nnam, which was made in Salt Lake City.\nMMC: bh\ncc: John Mitchell\nPete Flanigan\nHerb Klein\nPat Hillings\nSherm Unger\nFred LaRue\nNOTE TO HALDEMAN:\nPlease see me about something I prefer not\nto mention in this report.\nNixonAgnew\nMurray Chotiner\nSpecial Assistant to Campaign Manager\nCampaign Committee\n450 Park Avenue\nNew York, N.Y. 10022\n(212) 661-6400\nOctober 19, 1968\nMEMORANDUM\nTO:\nBob Haldeman\nFROM:\nMurray Chotiner\nPlease tell Dick that a letter is going out over\nFYI\nhis signature extending best wishes from him and\nPat to Mrs. Herman Ridder. Mrs. Ridder is in St.\nMary's Hospital in Long Beach, California. (her\nfirst name is Ponnie).\nThe Long Beach Independent Press Telegram (a Ridder\npaper), will endorse Dick on Sunday. He used to be\nvery critical of Dick.

In answer to a question on his proposed 50%\nincrease, Mr. Humphrey said, \"That's over a four-year\nperiod. It would be paid for out of the Social Security\nTrust Fund, with the exception of some of the medicaid --\nthe drugs that are presently paid for out of general revenues.\nWe feel that certain facts about both Mr. Humphrey's original\nproposal and his apparent change of mind should be brought to\nthe attention of the American people.\nThe rate of inflation under the Johnson-Humphrey Administration\nhas reached nearly 5% per year. With the free spending\npolicies Humphrey has been advocating, it would hardly be less\nunder his administration. At that rate, in four years a 50%\nincrease would be a spending power increase of only 20%. 30%\nof his increase would be wiped out by inflation -- an inflation\nthat this unrealistic and cynical proposal would itself help\nto create.\nMurray Chotiner\nNixon Agnew\nSpecial Assistant to Campaign Manager\nCampaign Committee\n450 Park Avenue\nNew York, N.Y. 10022\n(212) 661-6400 Ext. 11\n-2-\napproximately 15 billion dollars a year. If, as\nMr. Humphrey first proposed, it were paid for out of\ngeneral tax revenues, then taxes, the rate of inflation\nor both would have to go up.\nThe original Humphrey proposal was cruel and callous\nenough, without making it worse. Humphrey is all too\naware of how cruel and callous it was; and when the heat\nbecame too great, he decided to change the meaning of his\noriginal words. His improvement is no better.\nHow long must the American people tolerate such vacillative,\ncynical and unwise promises?\nMMC:jsz\nCC: Bob Haldeman\nFile October 17, 1968\nMEMORANDUM\n5\nTO: John Whitaker\nCOPY TO: Peter Flanigan\nFROM: Bill Timmons\nSUBJECT: Congressional support\nAs you know, it is unlikely that Mr. Nixon will drag into office enough candidates\nto give the Republican Party control of the U.S. House of Representatives or make\ntruly substantial gains in the Senate. In many states and districts RN is running\nwell ahead of the locals, but they are unable to properly identify with the Presi-\ndential candidate.\nTherefore, I have a proposal: one afternoon around the 1st of November set aside\nfour hours for Mr. Nixon to telephone each of the top 15 Senate and leading 40\nCongressional candidates to wish them success and briefly chit-chat about the\ncampaign.\nOn the receiving end of the call, Senate and/or House candidates can arrange a\npress conference with television cameras, Nixon back drop picture, and prepare\na hand-out news release claiming victory.\nThese call could be amplified for local reporters and would serve two purposes:\n1). Give RN local news exposure; and\n2). Provide a close tie-in between RN and local candidates\nI believe it would take 4 minutes for each call-or 3 hours and 40 minutes for all\n55 calls (actually some candidates will not be able to arrange local coverage).\nIf the proposal is adopted, I could bring several of my volunteer fieldmen to New\nYork to place the calls and furnish RN with a brief background sheet on each can-\ndidate and Congressional district for referral purposes. In addition, our team\ncould, by telephone, make the necessary armangements with the candidates before\nhand to assure the success of the project.\nSince Mr. Nixon is not doing personal endorsement radio/TV tapes, this plan would\nbe helpful to Congressional and Senatorial candidates.\nI urge favorable consideration.\n6\na meetry with\nB.\nlaboring people - workers\nrather than cumon leaders-\nmaybe in Texas,\nBAKCGROUND SHEET\nCANDIDATE:\nDISTRICT:\nCITY:\nPHONE:\nHello\n(first name)\n, this is Dick Nixon.

Let me know,\nsoonest, the states you feel are the most important.\nWillong do 3 stops in Tex\n1000\nSEPTEMBER\n1000\n1000\nNOVEMBER\n1000\nANY\nit\nW\nT\n3.\n:)\n$\nM\nT\nW\nF\n2\nin\n2.\n0\ne\n7\nOCTOBER\na\n-\n:\na\n2\n3\n4\n:\njust\n10\n20\n31\n0\n25%\n24\n20\n20\n=\n20\n1968\nIf\nIS\nSUNDAY\nMONDAY\nTUESDAY\nWEDNESDAY\nTHURSDAY\nFRIDAY\nSATURDAY\n1\n2\n3\n4\n5\nCalendar\nfor.

Another Treasury possibility is said to be\nArthur Burns; also Alan Greenspan for Council of Economic\nAdvisors.\nTO HALDEMAN FROM WHITAKER\n10/16\n1. Klei n's office tells me the AP meeting on the 17th in\nRN's apartment includes:\nSam Blackman\nHarry Montgomery\nPat Morin\nplus a photographer and a stenotypist. I assume you have full knowledge\nof the stenotypist and this meeting being on the record because when we last\ntalked about it on phone, you were talking about the possibility of a backgrounder\nrather than on the record and said you were going to dicsuss it with Klein.\nJust trying to avoid any communications gap.\n2.\nVolpe talked to Cardinal Cushing and Cushing feels \"unwise\nfor him to see RN\" SO I am closing the books on that one.\n3. Volpe. Cotton, Brooke have been invited by me to be in the\naudience for the Boston New England TV show No other New England key\npoliticians have been invited DO my knowledge and assume that is the\nway we want it,\nMEMORANDUM\nOCTOBER 9,\nTO:\nJOHN MITCHELL\nCC: FRANK SHAKESPEARE\nBOB HALDEMAN\nDoe yo 1968\nKEN COLE\nway too too\nFROM: JOHN WHITAKER\nRE:\nNEW ENGLAND REGIONAL TV - OCTOBER 18\nmany pots\nSenator Cotton's AA told me that RN asked Senator Cotton to be in the\naudience for the New England TV program. Seems to me that a decision\nis required on what politicians are allowed at this program.\nI would recommend the following:\nMaine - Senator Margaret Chase Smith only if she is well by that time\nNew Hampshire - Gubernatorial candidate Walter Peterson and Senator Cotton\nVermont - Gubernatorial candidate Deane Davis, Senators Prouty and Aiken\nMassachusetts - Governor Volpe and Senator Brooke\nRhode Island - Governor Chafee\nConnecticut - Senatorial candidate Ed May\nThen you come to the question of who sits next to Mrs. Nixon. My thought would\nbe Knt Goudy (sp?) the voice of New England (for the Red Sox). He can probably\nbe obtained via Bud Wilkinson since they are friends. Another possibility would\nbe Ted Williams and/or Karl Yaztremsky (sp?). Also depending on how much\ncoverage you have you may wish to include Governor Rockefeller and Javits\nif you get into New York State.\nJohn\nbecause and win L\nHave AN brome. irte already 6tton\nHALDEMAN FROM HARLOW\n10/13\nFor information and such action as deemed advisable:\n(1) Olds, as I mentioned, consulted Yarmolinski on\nstaffing a Nixon Administration -- had him come to N.Y.C. from\nHarvard for the discussion. Would blow the roof off the Capitol\nif it were known.\n(2) Olds has submitted to Arthur Burns mimeographed\nforms to complete -- names of people for posts in Commerce,\nTreasury and so on. Burns believes he is doing this all across\nthe country.\n(3) You recall Olds' approach to Jim Webb, head of\nSpace.\nJust a reminder, therefore. If John Mitchell still\nbelieves, as he said, \"Olds is turned off,\" he has another\nthink a-coming! RN also thinks Olds is turned off.\nOctober 3, 1968\nMEMORANDUM\nTO:\nBob Haldeman\nBill\nFROM:\nBryce Harlow\nProctor and Gamble Board Chairman Neil McElroy -- former\nDefense Secretary -- telephoned yesterday (Wednesday). He being\nmy Economic Supreme Being, I ardently listened.\nHe refers to RN's October 21st visit to Cincinnati, McElroy's\nhome city. He was eager to offer (not to press) a small convivial\ndinner put on by himself with a select few of RN's close friends\nin Cincinnati. He thought RN might wish to do this since it would\ngive him respite from the train.\nHe was hopeful that RN would recognize this not as something\nto burden, but something to offer release. If at all interested,\nMcElroy is reachable at 513-562-3662.\nI of course - repeat - of course assured him that his wish\nwould be put into appropriate hands. Like yours.\nI asked McElroy his judgment of the HHH bombing halt speech,\nthinking RN might value his reaction. He said it was \"so weasly\nas not to amount to much. Obviously he is trying to buy McCarthy\nsupport but without stirring up the animals. I doubt that will\nget him very far.\"\nHe did say that he is increasingly concerned lest the Wallace\nsupport is quietly building and may well be considerably larger than\nthe polls are showing.\nOctober 8, 1968\nThis statement was made tonight at a $100 a plate\ndinner for Democratic Senatorial candidate, Paul O'Dwyer in\nNew York.\nPaul O'Dwyer has also refused to endorse the\nDemocratic presidential candidate.\nMcCarthy once again declined to endorse Hubert Humphrey.\n\"A call goes out for party unity just as it did a\nyear ago. It was not acceptable then and it is not any more\nacceptable today.\"\nMcCarthy said his efforts to change the direction of\nthe Democratic Party were not aimed at getting anybody\nelected.\n\"There is no reason why the direction of the Party could\nnot be changed with a presidential candidate this year. \"\n(That is the exact quote though it does not track).\nThere are three conditions which McCarthy set forth\nwhich would have to be fulfilled before he endorsed Hubert\nHumphrey.\n1. A change in the Vietnam policy.\n2. Restructuring the draft.\n3. Restructuring the Democratic Party Machinery.\nFYI\nMEMORANDUM\nOCTOBER 11, 1968\nTO:\nBOB HALDEMAN\nFROM: JOHN WHITAKER\nRE:\nTOUR INFORMATION FOR RN OCTOBER 15 BACKGROUNDER\nSINCE NOMINATION 8/8 UNTIL OCTOBER 15\n1.
