Bull to prioritize organizing a chronology of his meetings and telephone conversations from March 1973 over the previously requested April 16th materials. Nixon tasks Bull with coordinating directly with H. R. Haldeman to secure the necessary records, suggesting that Haldeman or Ronald Ziegler should possess the relevant documentation. This directive highlights the administration's urgent efforts to compile a comprehensive record of the President's interactions with John W. Dean III amidst the ongoing Watergate investigations.","topics":["Watergate","White House tapes","Chronology","H. R. Haldeman","John W. Dean III","Stephen B.
