Letter written by President Nixon
Letter, 1972
Letter from President Richard Nixon
William H. Natcher Collection
Item/Collection Note: "For a number of years now I have known that President Nixon's old law firm was very much involved in the rapid rail transit-freeway controversy. A number of my friends ..... have urged from time to time that I use this information when certain matters arose that appeared right unusual. I never have used this in any way in this long controversy but have wondered from time to time just why the Attorney General was four and five months late in filing answers in the freeway suits, and why it was that President Nixon would write me letter after letter and then when the last battle took place in the House send all of his forces out in the corridors outside of the House chamber to join in defeating the leadership in the House and our committee by 13 votes." [Journal vol. XXVII, p. 6,610, January 20, 1972]
