Any Cabinet member with information on the latest
event should contact Rudy Giuliani (633-3752) at
the Department of Justice.
In particular, Secretary Edwards (who apparently
may have some information on the assassin's family)
should contact Mr. Giuliani.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE SENIOR STAFF
FROM:
JAMES A. BAKER III JAB
SUBJECT:
Compilation of Log of Internal Events
There is a need to compile an accurate log of relevant
internal events for the period (approximately) 2:00 p.m. -
9:00 p.m. on March 30 (yesterday).
This will be required to provide authoritative responses
to external questions, and to provide a basis for our
own review of internal operating procedures.
I am asking Dick Darman to take overall responsibility
for pulling this compilation together. I have asked
him also to coordinate the development of a preliminary
analysis of this compilation -- with a view toward
recommending necessary changes (if any) in operating
procedures and support systems. He will work closely
with Dick Allen and Fred Fielding on this -- consulting
with all of us as necessary.
COMPILATION OF LOG OF INTERNAL EVENTS
(See Baker Memo of 3/31/81 attached)
Questions to be Covered in Individual Memos
1.
Exactly when did you first know about the President's
condition, and how did you learn of it? (If your
knowledge changed over time, please respond accordingly.)
2. What did you do first upon learning of the President's
being injured?
3.
Who was in command where you were located? (If the
command structure or your understanding of it changed
over time, please note accordingly.)
4.
What means of communications did you (or others near you)
rely upon for interaction with key members of the White
House staff and Cabinet; did this communications system
function satisfactorily? (Please elaborate as appropriate.)
5.
What significant decisions (in your judgment) were
made where you were? By Whom? And how?
6.
Please note any other facts that you judge might be
relevant for a log of internal events.
