RE: Birmingham trip
BOB:
As it now stands (3:45 P.M. Tues. Afternoon) the situation for the
motorcade in Birmingham is this:
The mayor will ride in a closed sedan from the airport to the point
where the motorcade starts and then the NIxons will move into a
convertible at that point and ride on alone. Jim said they are still
going to try to "shoot this down" but since the mayor is "the only
person who will give us th time of day down there", they are going
to go along with it for the time being.
