President Nixon initiated a phone call to Treasury Secretary George P. Shultz to discuss an unspecified matter. Upon learning from the White House operator that Shultz was attending a lunch at the Export-Import Bank, Nixon abruptly chose to cancel the attempt. No further business was conducted, and the President opted not to pursue the contact at that time.
On June 23, 1972, President Richard M. Nixon and the White House operator talked on the telephone at an unknown time between 1:04 pm and 1:13 pm. The White House Telephone taping system captured this recording, which is known as Conversation 025-132 of the White House Tapes.
