LBJ moves to speed Nixon transition amid snares
Washington sources say the Johnson administration has prepared for a Nixon takeover with office space and staff moves. A 30 room suite near the White House is set for Nixon, while Defense Secretary Clifford urged a quick defense secretary appointment to start the transition. Congress allocated $900000 for moving expenses and furnishing space. Robert D. Murphy was named Nixon’s first foreign policy representative with offices beside Secretary of State Rusk.
