There had been a mixup, perhaps because of a rumored "collection problem." Keeping calm, he telephoned Humphrey's Washington headquarters. "Get John Bailey," he was told. The former Democratic National Committee chairman was out. Murphy and an aide solved the hotel dilemma with a $5,000 check. Bailey appeared and provided him with a secretary, typists and a driver.
