President Nixon instructed the White House operator to cancel a pending call to Alexander Haig, noting that he had already obtained the necessary information elsewhere. He also addressed a request from his brother, Donald Nixon, explicitly refusing to take the call himself. Nixon directed the operator to refer his brother to his daughter, Julie Nixon Eisenhower, instead.
