MEMC TO:
LODGE TRAVELLING STAFF
SUBJECT:
Matters pertaining to travel
FROM:
Edward F. Terrar, Campaign Tour Manager
1. It is requested that you attempt to confine your luggage to one
suitcase and one brief case or another small bag which can be placed in
the cabin of the airplane. There is no weight restriction on your large bag.
2. All hotel accommodations, reservations, etc,, will be handled either
by the tour manager or by the advance man. You will be given room assign-
ments. The key to the door to your room will always be in the door when
you arrive. Your bag at that time will be in your room. You will be given
each night a time at which your bag must be in the hallway outside your door
in the morning. It will be picked up at that point for transportation to the
aircraft.
3. You will be provided with a detailed copy of the schedule. The
schedule will de deviated from only when the candidate makes or causes the
deviation. It is, therefore, important that you be at the indicated time and
place.
4. As a general rule, unless advised to the contrary, each member of
press nerally bus,
the staff will be assigned to an automobile which will always have the came
number in each motorcade. You should, therefore, look for the car having
the number to which you are assigned. Your assignment is
.
5. Questions have been raised regarding type of clothing to be taken.
This, of course, is largely determined by climate of the area we will
visit on each tour. There will be no occasion which will require dinner
clothes or formal clothes.

6. Staff Badges: You will be provided with a badge identifying you as a
member of the Lodge travelling staff. This should be worn at all times
while you are performing official duties and during the time you are on
the floor of the hotel occupied by the staff. It should not be worn into
eating places, bars, etc.
7. Expenses: All expenses incident to the travel will be paid for by us.
I will provide you with a cash advance to cover incidental expenses. It is
specifically requested that you do not tip bell hops for transportation of
bags to your rooms or from your rooms. Any time you eat meals in your
room or in hotels where we are r egistered, it will be well for you to sign
such checks - your name and room number. Any time it is necessary for
you to tip, please be generous.
8. Laundry and cleaning. The nature of our schedule precludes having
laundry or cleaning done where we are only making overnight stops.
Generally speaking, we will have two days a week off. The Ambassador
will usually be spending these two days in Washington. It will be necessary
that you obtain laundry and cleaning service at this time. Arrangements
will be made for you on those weekends we are not in Washington for securing
laundry and cleaning services. By and large, experience has indicated that
the use of wash and wear clothes is not practical since there is usually not
sufficient time during the day to wash the clothes.
10. Emergencies: It might be desirable for your family to have a
number where you can be contacted in a minimum time. It is suggested
in the event of an emergency, that your family call Federal 8-4925 in
Washington and leave any urgent message. We will be in contact with this
-3-
number at frequent intervals during the day and will pick up any messages
left for anyone on the staff.
11. Medical service: We will have a physician travelling with us who will
take care of any medical problems.
12. Pay checks: It may be that you may prefer having your pay check
deposited to your account in a bank or sent to your home. If such is the
case, will you please direct a letter to Mr. Hal Short, Executive Assistant
to the Chairman, Republican National Committee, 1625 Fye Street, N. i.
Washington 6, D.C., requesting that the check be deposited to your account
in the bank desired. Please send copy of this letter to Mr. Allan Larivee,
1146 19 th Street, N. it., /ashington, D.C., and to the cashier of the bank
involved.
13. Travel insurance: Since the details are at this point not firm, you
will be advised more comprehensively within a day or SO.
14. It is with a great deal of pleasant anticipation that I undertake this
campaign and can assure you of my desire to do everything possible to not
only make the campaign successful, but also a pleasure for all involved.
Therefore, please advise me of any specific desires you have or anything
which I may be able to do to make this trip more pleasant. My home tele-
phone number is Woodley 6-3290, washington, D.C. Call me at any time.
