MEMORANDUM FOR:
GENERAL HAIG
FROM:
L. HIGBY
SUBJECT:
George Bush/
Bob Dole Meeting.
The last time the President met with George Bush and other
party officials, he made it clear to Bob that in future
political meetings like this it would be necessary for Haldeman
to sit in, not just Bill Timmons, since in a sense he is an
interested party.
You are obviously aware that there is a meeting today at
3:00 p.m. between Bush, Dole and the President with Bill
Timmons sitting in. It would probably be most appropriate
for you to sit in on this meeting.
There are two issues that have been totally overlooked in
Timmons' briefing paper that will probably be raised by
Bush:
1. The complete possession immediately of the Data Bank by
the RNC.
The Data Bank is from the 1972 election. This is a problem
that you and I need to spend a few minutes on sometime before
any final decision is reached. Briefly you should be aware
that there is in existence a substantial data bank of all the
key states that breaks down by mailing address, ethnic
charactes income etc., most of the people in the key states.
This is a very valuable piece of information for any political
candidate because he can use it to do extensive mailing and
political canvassing work. Many people feel that the data
bank was one of the primary reasons for our success in very
tought states against McGovern. Before the President turns
this over wholesale to the RNC some other arrangements should
be considered. If it is turned over to the RNC it in effect
becomes public property and becomes available for any and all
candidates. If the President hold on to it simply for a little
while to figure out what he want to do, he loses nothing.
Page 2
2. Bush will probably raise the assumption by the RNC of
all the funds currently being held by the Committee for the
Re-election of the President. This, for a number of reasons
would not be appropriate at this time. First, there are
substantial legal fees that the Committee for the Re-election
of the President may have to assume and additional debts that
are not now cleared up. For the President to give all this
money immediately to George Bush when it was not donated to
the RNC but specifically for the re-election of Richard Nixon
would be inappropriate.
Don't misunderstand me, I think that at an appropriate time
we may want to turn over both the money and the data bank to
the RNC but the President, as you I am sure will agree,
should not be stampeded into any decisions. I think you may
want to talk to him briefly about these subjects prior to his
meeting and at least consider attending the meeting itself.

SUBJECT:
George Bush/Bob Dole
Meeting.
The last time the President met with George Bush and a couple
of other party officials, he made it clear to Bob that in fature
political meetings like this it was necessary for Haldeman
to sit in, not just Bill Timmons, since in a sense as I am
sure you are aware, he is an interested party.
You are obviously aware that there is a meeting today at
3:00 pm between Bush and Dole and the President that Bill
Timmons is also sitting in on. It would probably be most
appropriate for you to sit in on this meeting too or someone
else who has the President's interest completely in mind and
no particular stake in 1976.
There are two issues that have been totally overlooked in the
Timmons' briefing paper that will probably be raised by Bush.
One, the complete possession immediately of the Data Bank
by the RNC. The Data Bank is from the 1972 election. This
is a problem that you and I probably need to spend a few minutes
on sometime before any final decision is reached. on it, but
briefly you should be aware that there is in existence a substantial
data bank of all the key states in the United States that breaks
down by mailing address, ethnic character, income etc.. most of
the people in the key states. This is a verv valuable piece of
information for any political candidate because he can use it
to do extensive mailing work and political canvassing work.
Many people feel that it was one of the primary reasons for our
success in very tough states against McGovern. Before the
President turns this over wholesale to the RNC some other
arrangements should be considered. If it is turned over to the
RNC it in effect becomes public property and becomes available
for any and all candidates. If the President holds on to it
simply for a little while to figure out what he wants to do, he
loses nothing except immediately giving something away to Bush
and can play an appropriate role in the 1974 campaign.

your interest in Postmaster positions in the Southern

the Postmaster position. When it is necessary to find
candidates from other offices, management selects three
highly qualified employees to compete for the position.
Employees may indicate their interest in being considered
for Postmaster positions in offices ether than their own
by filing PS Form 991 with their District Manager. Attached
are some blank forms and a sample. This form should be
sent to the following address:
