MEMORANDUM
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
January 19, 1970
MEMORANDUM FOR:
MR. HALDEMAN
FROM:
ALEXANDER P. BUTTERFIELD
RE:
Plans for The Washburn Committee
In response to your recent query as to where we stand in our plans
for setting up a permanent staff and an annual operating fund for the
Washburn Committee, I must report no progress since my memo-
randum advising of Clem Stone's "promise" to provide whatever
amount we felt would do the trick on the condition that we outlined
our concept of the scheme to his son-in-law, Dave Bradshaw.
Chuck Colson tried to get ahold of Bradshaw just as the Christmas
season got underway, but to no avail. Bradshaw has now returned
from a 2-3 week period in Acapulco and Chuck will resume his efforts
to make contact. He has spoken to Bradshaw on the telephone and
only this morning had breakfast with Tom Evans who offered to
assist from the sidelines. Chuck understands the urgency of the
matter and will push for a meeting with Bradshaw before the end
of this week.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
MR. HALDEMAN
FROM:
ALEXANDER P. BUTTERFIELD
RE:
Follow-up on the King Timahoe Situation
I have had another long, agonizing and in-the-main unenlightening
"conversation" with Manolo. I think the miserable sessions I endured
in Latin II as a high school sophomore were easier. I won't say I'm
near the end of my rope, but the next time you want some information
on the subject of doggie affairs -- that is, if you really want some fast
answers -- I'm going directly to the dogs.
Here is what I was able to piece together:
--
The recently-modified "dog care" arrangement is working
well.
:
Manolo has checked out Sam the gardener and says that
Sam understands the dogs and is very good with them.
Sam is aware of the importance of Tim's getting plenty
of exercise, sufficient food and water, and frequent
brushings. The procedure calls for Sam's getting Tim
out to the South Lawn nearly all day (when the weather
permits), and seeing to it that the dog has access to his
outdoor house and pen. Sam also ensures that plenty of
water and food are available throughout the day -- 60 that,
in effect, Tim gets all he wants to eat.
--
If the weather is bad, Tim is kept indoors.
--
Near the end of the day Mr. Bryant, the White House
electrician and former "full-time caretaker for the
dogs", brings Tim indoors.
--
Manolo checks on Tim from time to time -- as opportunities
permit.
--
Manolo takes full charge of Tim when he and Tim
accompany the President outside of the Washington,
D.C. area.
Manolo has promised to inform me right away if he detects any unsatis-
factory developments.
