John Rollins Telephone
Call or Visit
Tom Evans of the RNC called Bob last evening to request a
phone call be made by the President to John Rollins. The
RNC is trying to get Rollins to Chair the November 9th RNC
Fund Raising Dinner project.
Rollins has indicated his interest in this, but has not
really decided to do it, indicating to Evans that "Tom
sometimes you just need to talk to the President about
things like this."
Rollins will be spending the week at the La Costa Country
Club here in California, and Evans would either like to
have the President call Rollins or preferably have Rollins
come up and see the President for five minutes.
Evans indicated that the call should not be one that
attempts to persuade Rollins that he ought to take the job,
but merely a call that says to him, "John, I understand
that you are going to be playing a major role in the November
9th Dinner project, and I want you to know how great I think
that is."
Obviously, Evans has not thought this whole thing through
completely in terms of whether the call or the visit would
be best or what should be said in either case, so you will
want to get back to him for details.

Dear Bill:
I am sorry, but a last minute change in departure
time and procedure has made it necessary for me
to go directly to the airport. Therefore, I will
not be able to see you this trip. I want to thank
you for all your help and generosity in leeting
Bob use the sail boat. He appreciated it very
much.
Mrs. Kathy Bachman, my secretary, will be showing
you through the compound this morning, and I am
sure she will be able to answer any questions you
may have. I hope your wife and daughters enjoy
the tour.
When we are out here next time, I look forward to
meeting you in person. Likewise, should you be
in Washington between now and then, please do not
hesitate to call me at the White House. I envy
you enjoying this California weather.
Best wishes,
Sincerely,
Larry Higby

I am sorry to make this sound so formal, but I
thought a note might be the easiest way. We'll
have the need for some baby equipment, apparently,
while we are out in California. That would include
a crib, high chair and if possible a car seat.

Haldeman talked to Senator Bob Griffin re: the
invitation for the President to appear at a dinner
honoring Griffin on November 6th in Detroit. It is
part of a series of dinners that is a state-wide
kick-off for Griffin's campaign for reelection. He
feels it is very important, obviously. Bob said
that there wasn't much chance that he could attend,
although, he knows the President would want to. Just
thought you should be aware of this call.

Brother James:
I want to thank you very much for taking
the time to come down Saturday afternoon.
I am sorry we were unable to work out
something so we could spend more time
together. Hopefully that can be remedied
next time out.
Your car was really great and has gotten
me thinking about purchasing an Italian
product, although Porsche still looks
awfully good.
Letters really aren't the way to say any-
thing, so, until I am out there next time,
take it easy and if you get a chance, keep
an eye on Dolores.
Best regards,
Sincerely,
Larry Higby

Finch called to report that he feels strongly that we
Diego. need to give some second thoughts with regard to San
When I asked him why, he gave the following reasons:
1. The Host Delegation and the Governor and his
two committee men receive control of 3,000 tickets
for the Convention. Finch is not sure that we
want to give Reagan that much visibility. Also,
he points out the fact that we will be in a running
battle with Reagan as soon as he gets control of
that many tickets. He will start fund raising
projects, etc.
2. He feels that if we hold the Convention in Miami
Beach the networks would probably anti-up more money
simply because they would be saving so much money
in not having to move facilities.
Finch would like for you to call him to discuss this. He
will be available after 1:00 this afternoon, our time.

Report on Firestone
Situation
I received a call from Dick Moore and he reported
the following:
1. Firestone will be at the Compound
today and will be having lunch with
John Ehrlichman. He will have a memo
for you, apparently covering the subject
of his meeting with the Reagan people.
2. There will not be another meeting
of the Reagan people until September 14th,
and of course, Mitchell will be back by
July 25th. Be will then be able to move
into the whole California delegation
situation.
3. The Reagan people indicated to
Firestone that the AG had approved the
plan of an organizing committee, but
Moore says this is not the case.
Moore says that there is nothing more to do on
this until the AG gets back and nothing will
happen on it between now and then. He just
wanted you to be aware of the whole situation.

Dwight has already passed on to you the Kalmbach information
relayed yesterday. In addition, you should be aware of the
fact that Irvine is coming in with its final -- final offer --
says Kalmbach, on Monday or Tuesday. After that, you probably
would want to meet on the whole site question, and also
consider, at least, taking a tour of the Irvine property.
Kalmbach also has indicated that he would like some people
from Irvine to be there when you take the tour.
