President Nixon requested that the White House operator connect him to H. R. Haldeman, who was currently attending a meeting at the office of Treasury Secretary John B. Connally. The call served as a brief administrative bridge to facilitate direct communication between the President and his Chief of Staff. No further policy discussions occurred during this brief exchange as the operator proceeded to initiate the transfer.
On November 22, 1971, President Richard M. Nixon and the White House operator talked on the telephone at an unknown time between 4:26 pm and 4:31 pm. The White House Telephone taping system captured this recording, which is known as Conversation 015-103 of the White House Tapes.
