He has a Secret Service detail,\na PIO and an aide who customarily travel with him and he prefers\nto take his wife. Whatever you may consider the merits, I'm\nwriting you to let you know that you have a morale problem on\nyour hands and I assume you'll know how to handle it.\nSecond, he was very critical of the audio quality of the television\ntapes which were shown at Blair House or somewhere last night\nby you. He has a feeling that they may have been produced by the\nsame fellow who did the Phoenix, Arizona film in 1970 since they\nhave very much the same quality and character about them.\nThird, he was disturbed at the response given to the gentleman\nfrom Oregon or Washington who complained that he had been\nasked to schedule four meetings and had been promised speakers\nand some two or three of them had been cancelled. He felt the\nman had been brushed off with an unsatisfactory answer and\nthat the circumstance showed a serious breakdown in speakers\nscheduling.\nJohn a D. Ehrlichman\ncc:\nH. R. Haldeman\nClark MacGregor"
