Connally Teeters On White House Departure Plans
Former Treasury Secretary John Connally remained undecided about leaving his temporary White House post after a policy session with President Nixon. He flew to Texas soon after, amid a broader push by Nixon for Congress to grant export controls on wheat and cottonseed products. The strained 1971 72 bond between Nixon and Connally is linked to Watergate pressures and Connallys informal advisory role rather than a full time return.
