TALKING PAPER
Call to Julie and David
Many people here have suggested that the President should
go to the graduation at Julie's college. They feel it would affect the
college badly if he were not to show up. This is an important
decision that needs some careful thought. The plan here would be
to go simply as one of the fathers, sit in the audience, do not speak
or otherwise participate.
He knows that you have already discussed this with the college,
but feels we should reopen the question and would like your judgment
on it.

The President understood completely your message on Christmas
gifts which I relayed to him on December 24th. He asked, however,
that you follow up on getting the rings for Mrs. Nixon and Tricia.
Although he said nothing about a particular future occasion, I got
the impression that he wanted the rings as soon as they can be made
available.
Many thanks.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
MR. CHOTINER
MR. DENT
As one of the long-range projects for the political group we need to
consider the development of candidates in those districts where
Senators or Congressmen are 70 years of age or over. The article
in LIFE brings home this situation very vividly and this issue could
become a very good one in the future. While districts like George
Miller's and Bill Colmer's are both considered hopelessly Democratic,
we need to realize that both are 80 years of age or will be by the time
they run next time. They will probably retire and a vacuum could be
created which we could fill. At least a study should be made of all
these districts and special attention should be made to developing good
candidates to take the incumbents on If they do not retire and, of
course, to run for the post If they do retire. On the other side of this
coin - we must use our influence more effectively in the future to get
our 70-year old people to retire gracefully. Senators Scott and
Margaret Smith are cases in point both are 70. George Murphy,
of course, will have the age problem plaguing him in this campaign
and we can only hope he will survive it. Effective party leadership
requires that we examine all of these cases and be ready for a contingency
plan to deal with them in the future.
It is surprising to note that no one has talked with Jack Olson on the
Senate race in Wisconsin. He is the Nixon man in Wisconsin and is going
to be the next Governor. He has some very strong ideas as to who might
be the Senate candidate. Please see that whoever has the responsibility
for Wisconsin talks with him immediately and gets his views as to what
would best serve his interests as far as a Senate candidate is concerned.
He also may have some views as to what we should do on Knowles. As
has been suggested several times, we ought to find out what Knowles
might want to do and make some offer to him.

Our problem here is that our people are dealing with Secretary Laird.
The Secretary really has no interest in the State at large, and it is
time we started talking directly with Olson and take him as the
leadership man in that State.

I was rather surprised to note that in our conversation
on the Senate races that no one had talked to Jack Olson. He is
the Nixon man in Wisconsin and is going to be the next
Governor and has some very strong ideas as to who might
be the Senate candidate. This shows rather unusual stupidity
for us to have failed to have talked with him. Will you see
that who ever has responsibility for Wisconsin talks to him
im mediately and gets his views as to what would best serve
his interests as far as a Senate candidate is concerned.
He also may have some views as to what we should do on
Knowles. On several occasions I have suggested that we
ought to find out what Knowles might want to do and make
some offer to him. I think our problem here is that our
people are dealing with Laird. Laird really has no interest
in the state at large and it is time to start talking directly to
Olson and take him as the leadership man in that state.

MEMORANDUM FOR 1
MR. CHAPIN
The President is concerned that we are not handling the tipping
process properly when he dines out.
For example last night at LeCote Basque the check was signed
and the tip was put on the check. This should not be done. The
tips should be given in cash. The head waiters involved in
overseeing the seating, etc., should get $10, the wine steward
should get $5, and the waiters serving the President should get
very substantial tips totalling about 25% of the check. It is
perfectly proper to sign the check itself, because as you know,
frequently the restaurant will complement it, but always the tips
should be given in cash and should be generous.
