President Nixon consulted with the White House operator to determine the time difference between Washington, D.C., and Alaska in order to schedule a call with Senator Ted Stevens. After verifying that it was too early in Alaska to reach the Senator, the President decided to postpone the conversation. No further action was taken regarding the call at that time.
