MEMORANDUM
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
September 16, 1970
TO:
Bob Haldeman
FROM:
Harry Dent
AD
With regard to the Joe Job matter in New Jersey, I have
discussed this with Bob Haldeman, the President, Governor
Cahill, and Nelson Gross. After the discussion with the
President, it was agreed that I should first explore the
use of Congressman Charlie Sandman of New Jersey, one of
the closest personal friends of Job, to try to get him to
get Job out of the race. This has been done. I find that
Sandman has already tried several times and has failed.
Sandman says he is convinced there is no way to get Job
out of this race. Job hates Nelson Gross because he feels
Gross was anti-Nixon at the Convention while Job was pro-
Nixon, that Job got Gross to come around and support the
President in the end and Gross got all the credit, and
then he has had some other problems whereby Gross has
supposedly gotten the credit for Job's good work. He
has this very deep-seated feeling against Gross and is
determined that he can win because he thinks he can pick
up the Hudson County vote.
His family has asked him to get out. Many others have
requested this, and he still insists on staying in.
The President wanted something done on this right away,
so I am now contacting Len Hall to get him to make this
his first priority project. Hall will go to see Job,
listen him out and then determine whether he should bring
him down to see the President or have the President call
Job on the telephone. The President told Gross the other
- 2 -
day that he will talk to Job on the phone or in person.
The President wanted to offer him a U. S. Marshal's
position. However, he does not want a U. S. Marshal's
position as he has already been a U. S. Marshal. He
wants to beat Gross, and he believes he, Joe Job, will
actually win the race and do the President a big favor.

MR. DENT
Re: New Jarry
The President asked again what's being done about Joe Job.
He raised the point that if Job is a problem the President will
see him and get him in line but he hasn't heard anything back
on this and is waiting for either a recommendation for his
action or a report that everything is moving the way it should
be.

MEMORANDUM FOR :
MR. FINCH
The President is considering bringing Lyn Hall in as a glad
hander and political operative. He would use him to go into
the states to make the deal in the way that Murray is not good
at handling. He feels me need someone more subtle for many
of these things. For example, to work on Dave Cargo and get
him squared away or work on the problem in Vermont of bringing
the Lieutenant Governor in the line behind Prouty, etc. Rose
Woods is making the contact with Hall.
