MEMORANDUM FOR JOHN D. EHRLICHMAN By RJP NARS, Date 1/24/82
FROM:
John C. Whitaker que
I discussed Clayton Yeutter with Senator Hruska. Background: Harlow,
Jeb Magruder and I talked to Yeutter about taking the job as the farm
man for the Committee to Re-elect the President. Yeutter discussed
it with Hruska, and Hruska called Mitchell registering concern. I
called Hruska at Mitchell's request.
1. Yes, he would support Yeutter for the job.
2. "Of course, he should not work in Nebraska, because you
know how Clayton took potshots at Carl Curtis and I in the early part of
the Tieman Administration. He knew nothing about national legislation
then, was very obstreperous and too liberal in his views for me. Of
course, Tieman losing in 1970 just proved we were right."
3. I said, "But Senator, don't you think he has done a good
job since he has been in Washington "Yes, I think he has, but you don't
hear much about him. I told Cliff Hardin to be careful when he hired him.
I also told Cliff to be careful when Clayton went to Colombia. 11 When I
pressed a bit, he said he would support him for the job.
Conclusion: Hruska would be volcanic if he knew what job we were taling
about for Yeutter.
This week Harlow, Malek and I will interview Yeutter, Butz and Johnson
to discuss "how things are going in the farm belt."
