Friday, June 18, 2010 Page 1 of 1 DETERMINED TO BE AN April 14, 1971 ADMINIS IIVE MARKING E.O. 12065, Section 6-102 By OP NARS, Date 1-7-81 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT Road FROM ROSE MARY WOODS I had breakfast this morning with Len Hall, and he told me that he had received a call from Emmett Hughes asking to talk with him as he is doing a book on the history of the Republican Party. The great surprise in this was that Emmett Hughes has a letter from Rogers Morton. Len agrees with me that we could have no more vicious man writing a history of the Republican Party than this fellow who has apparently turned against everyone he has ever worked with. In talking with Henry Kissinger the other day he told me that in an article Hughes did just a week or so ago he was constantly saying that he (Henry) made the suggestions which in fact Emmett Hughes had made. I think we can always expect this from Emmett Hughes, but I can't imagine why Rogers Morton (I assume while he was National Chairman) would ever give him any kind of a letter authorizing him to talk with people after what he has done to everybody he has been associated with.
