This is June 27, 2007. I'm here with Dr. Ed Harper, for the Richard Nixon Presidential Oral History Program. Dr. Harper, I'm delighted that you are joining us today for this interview. Ed Harper Thank you, glad to be here. Timothy Naftali Let's just start at the beginning. How did you come to join the Nixon administration? Ed Harper Well, I was working for Arthur Doolittle[phonetic sp], a consulting firm here in Washington, doing public policy analysis in different areas, and an old friend of mine from high school days, Bud Krogh, asked me if I'd come over and have lunch with him and John Ehrlichman, and I did. And John said, "Well, when can you join us on the domestic policy staff?" And I said, "How about Friday?" So that's how I came to be on the staff. Timothy Naftali At -- Male Speaker One second.

Weinberger, not a defense technocrat, managed a massive defense buildup of 1.5 trillion dollars over a four year period. A biographical approach to Weinberger illuminates Reagan’s selection, for in many ways Weinberger harkens back to an earlier type of defense manager more akin to Elihu Root than Robert McNamara; more a man of letters than technocrat.

  • The National Data Center Proposal of 1965 and Its Descendants
    Statistical Déjà Vu: The National Data Center Proposal of 1965 and Its Descendants by Rebecca S. Kraus, Ph.D. History Staff U.S. Census Bureau For presentation at the Joint Statistical Meetings Miami Beach, FL, August 1, 2011 This paper is to inform interested parties of ongoing research and to encourage discussion. Any views expressed on historical issues are those of the author and not necessarily those of the U.S. Census Bureau. Abstract Issues concerning sharing of statistical information, linking data sets, and storing and preserving data collected by the federal statistical agencies have long sparked debate. This paper focuses on the National Data Center proposal of 1965, ensuing public concern over its privacy implications, and the response of the Bureau of the Budget and the U.S. Census Bureau. The purpose of this study is to identify the issues leading to the development of the proposal, as well as the consequences of the proposal, in order to inform current policy decisions, particularly in regard to the U.S. Census Bureau. Examples of subsequent efforts at statistical consolidation and data sharing highlight the persistent theme of statistical déjà vu. The author would like to thank the following staff of the U.S. Census Bureau for their review and comment on the contents of this paper: Francis Grailand Hall, Division Chief, Administrative and Customer Services Division (ACSD); Claudette Bennett, Assistant Division Chief, Product Development and Publications Services, ACSD; Bill Maury, Chief, History Staff, ACSD; Nick Birnbaum, History Staff, ACSD; Nancy Gordon, Associate Director for Strategic Planning and Innovation; Mary Frazier, Privacy Office; and Kathleen Styles, formerly of the Policy Office.

  • FINDING and USING PRESIDENTIAL DISCRETION Organization Should Make Freedom of Choice Possible
    A non-partisan consortium of public and private universities and other research organizations, the White House Transition Project focuses on smoothing the transition of power in the American Presidency. Its “Reports” series applies scholarship to specific problems identified by those who have borne the responsibilities for governing. Its “Briefing” series uses extensive interviews with practitioners from the past seven White Houses to produce institutional memories for most of the primary offices in the West Wing operation of the presidency. Find the two publication series of the White House Transition Project, WHTP Reports and Institutional Memory Series Briefing Books on its website: WhiteHouseTransitionProject.org. © The White House Transition Project, 2007 2009-04 PRESIDENTIAL WORK DURING THE FIRST HUNDRED DAYS Terry Sullivan Executive Director, The White House Transition Project Political Science, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Director, Presidential Transition Program, James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy Abstract: This report covers the presidential work schedules of Presidents Dwight Eisenhower through George H. W. Bush during their first 100 days in office. It reports on patterns of work carrying out presidential responsibilities and reviews a number of strategies for expanding the president’s discretion and using that discretion to affect policy. The report concludes that adopting an hierarchical White House organizational structure, one commanded by a White House Chief of Staff, improves the president’s workday, finds more opportunities for discretion, and broadens the cadre of the president’s “inner circle.” It identifies a number of opportunities for increased presidential discretion beyond controlling the numbers of ceremonial events on the president’s schedule.

  • Oral History Interview with HR Haldeman Co~Ducted by Raymond H
    Oral history interview with H. R. Haldeman co~ducted by Raymond H. Geselbracht in Mr. Haldeman's home in Santa Barbara, California on April 13, 1988 RHG: All right, Mr. Haldeman, we're going to discuss the theme from your Journal that I've called Nixon's attempt to create a responsive bureaucracy. I've been trying to think in my mind, last night and this morning, how to organize this, and I can't quite manage an organization that I'm satisfied with. The concept is consistent, I think, throughout the things [that] we'll be talking about the next while. My thought is that there are two things involved in creating a responsive bureaucracy. The first is the structure of the government. The second is the people put in positions of responsibility in the government. I've decided, since structure is almost always simpler than people, that I would try looking at that first. See how that works. During the transition, Roy Ash got a telephone call from either the President, or yourself, I'm not sure whom. HRH: I'm not sure which, either. RHG: He was asked to come, be part of the administration, and do something regarding management. Now, for personal reasons, he wasn't able to come at that time. He did agree to come on a part-time, occasional basis, and head up the Ash Commission. As far as he was aware, there was no preparation for this. He didn't really know Nixon, very much, prior to receiving that telephone call. Do you know why Nixon picked him, and what Nixon had in mind for him to do? 1 HRH: I hadn't realized that Nixon didn't know him.

    To: The Chief Justice Justice Brennan Justice White Justice Marshall Justice Blackmun Justice Rehnquist Justice Stevens Justice O'Connor From: Justice Powell Circulated: __________ 3 Recirculated: ~ 1982 4th DRAFT SUPREME COURT OF TilE UNITED STATES No. 79-1738 RICHARD NIXON, PETITIONER v. A. ERNEST FITZGERALD ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT [June-, 1982] JuSTICE POWELL delivered the opinion of the Court. The plaintiff in this lawsuit seeks relief in civil damages from a former President of the United States. The claim rests on actions allegedly taken in the former President's offi­ cial capacity during his tenure in office. The issue before us is the scope of the immunity possessed by the President of the United States. I In January 1970 the respondent A. Ernest Fitzgerald lost his job as a management analyst with the Department of the Air Force. Fitzgerald's dismissal occurred in the context of a departmental reorganization and reduction in force, in which his job was eliminated. In announcing the reorganiza­ tion, the Air Force characterized the action as taken to pro­ mote economy and efficiency in the armed forces. Respondent's discharge attracted unusual attention in Congress and in the press. Fitzgerald had attained national prominence approximately one year earlier, during the wan­ ing months of the presidency of Lyndon B. Johnson. On No­ vember 13, 1968, Fitzgerald appeared before the Subcommit­ tee on Economy in Government of the Joint Economic Committee of the United States Congress.
