President Nixon instructed Thomas Hart to adjust his official schedule to accommodate a meeting with David Packard. Nixon directed that Packard be slotted for a 9:00 a.m. appointment on Thursday, explicitly requesting that Stephen Bull reschedule existing commitments to allow for a 30- to 60-minute duration. The President confirmed he had already concluded his meeting with Roy Ash, clearing the way for the new appointment.
