Edward Nixon Paid by Richard Nixon Foundation

Edward Nixon received 15000 dollars in consultant fees during 1973 from the Richard Nixon Foundation, with 1500 dollars per month from January to October to assist Whittier College on an oral history of the President’s prepolitical years. The foundation previously paid 21000 dollars for site selection for a presidential library. Firestone said the oral history project is complete and the foundation is not pursuing current library work, delaying plans until the President leaves office.
