RELEASE

State Headquarters: 3908 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles 5, California; DU 5-9161
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Efforts of Richard Nixon to secure equal opportunity for the American
Indian were cited today by the National Association for the Advancement
of the American Indian, Inc., in endorsing him for Governor of California.
The endorsement was announced by William E. Rogers, NAAAI executive
secretary. He said there are approximately 5000 American Indians remaining
on reservations in California.
"It is mandatory for us to select a governor who is conscious of the
plight of the reservation Indian and who will cooperate to secure him equal
opportunity and the dignity due every citizen," Rogers declared. "That is
why we believe Mr. Nixon should be governor."
Nixon, he added, has a long public record of sympathetic consideration
toward the association's aim to obtain full citizenship privileges for the
American Indian. Nixon's history of fair play for all minority groups was
also cited in the endorsement.

Women who know the terror of Communist oppression also know how to
fight it.
And that is why the Nixon-for-Governor Committee today has a check for
$500 from the California Council of All-American Women.
The Council has a membership of 39 women, most of whom are refugees
from Communism. The $500 check represented a two-year savings campaign.
Much of it was earned by forming a folk-song chorus and singing at various
functions,
"We want to elect Richard Nixon Governor of California because he will
keep freedom's flag flying," said Josephine Staudhammer of Los Angeles,
Council President, in turning over the check to the Nixon Committee.

The experience of the Cuban crisis makes it clear again that California cannot
afford a provincial administration with an attitude of "stop the world, I want to
get off!"
This is why Californians are not buying the argument that my experience in
national and international affairs will somehow be a liability for service as Governo:
In fact, at a time of intensive world conflict I have found throughout the
state that people want a Governor who has firsthand knowledge and experience in
dealings with issues beyond our borders.
As the communists step up their activities abroad, there is an even greater need
to effectively fight communism at home. My 16 years of experience in fighting the
communist menace can be put to work for California. My positive program of investi-
gation, legislation and education can make California a model for state action in
this field.
Californians want a Governor who knows how to fight for our jobs and our indus-
tries when they are threatened in Washington or throughout the world.
At a time when California's farm products are in danger of being sold down the
river by State department negotiators, my knowledge of world bargaining tables can
be put to work for our state.
Whenever there is a federal move to discriminate against our shipbuilders, de-
fense workers, fishermen, miners or lumbermen, my knowledge of Washington can be
put to work for our state.
But beyond having a Governor who can fight for our fair share of international
markets and can stand up to federal bureaucrats, Californians also want a Governor
who is capable of making their views known on vital national and world issues.

Press Secretary
October 30
"The largest audience in Western political history will watch a five-hour state-
wide telethon which will climax on Saturday the final week of the Richard Nixon victor
drive," it was predicted today by Herbert G. Klein, Nixon press secretary.
During this week, the fast-paced Nixon campaign will sweep into all of the major
metropolitan areas of the state and include many of the smaller cities.
"During this week Mr. Nixon will alternate his days between north and south to
take his "Program for Progress" to the maximum number of Californians," Klein said.
Tuesday he speaks before the Central Los Angeles Baptist Ministers Alliance at
noon. At 3:30 P.M. he appears at an Ontario (San Bernardino County) Win-With-Nixon
Rally, and at 8 P.M. before an East Los Angeles Junior College Win-With-Nixon assembly
Wednesday morning he motors to the San Fernando Valley for a "drop-by" at the
North Hollywood Nixon-for-Governor Headquarters, 4450 Lankershim, before flying to
Lodi (San Joaquin County) for another rally at 3:30 P.M. Final event of the day
is a major Win-With-Nixon rally in Santa Rosa (Sonoma County) at 7:30 P.M.
The Mother Lode country welcomes him Thursday with a community rally in Rose-
ville (Placer County). He then flies to the Southland again for a major campaign
speech at 8 P.M. in Cerritos College, Norwalk (Los Angeles County).
Friday he flies north again for a morning rally at Mt. View (Santa Clara County)
in the Sears shopping center. Shuttling back to the Southland again, he goes to
Chula Vista (San Diego County) for a late afternoon and evening rally.
Saturday marks the last of seven telethons in his Final Election campaign.
Originally scheduled as a three-hour, no-holds-barred telecast from 10 P.M. to
1 A.M. over Station KTTV (Channel 11), the telethon has been expanded to include an
additional two hours from 6:30 P.M. to 8:30 P.M.
He will answer questions telephoned direct from the public on State issues and
his program for a greater California. Numerous celebrities will read the questions
called in to a bank of telephones "on stage."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Richard Nixon announced today he will interrupt his campaign schedule Saturday
to make a special statement to the people of California concerning the Cuban crisis.
The former Vice President will make a half-hour television address from San
Diego. It will be carried in the Los Angeles area on Station KTTV (Channel 11) at
8 P.M.; in the San Diego area on Station KFMB-TV (Channel 8) at 9:30 P.M., and in
the San Francisco-Oakland area on KTVU (Channel 2) at 9:30 P.M.
"I will have a statement of major importance regarding Cuba," Nixon said. "I
am directing it to the people of the state through a special network because of the
urgency of the situation."
On September 18, Nixon called a press conference in Los Angeles to urge Presi-
dent Kennedy to take stronger action against Cuba. He pledged to support "any
action that he (the President) considered necessary to contain a communist beach-
head in Cuba."
At the time, Nixon said: "There is always the danger of war in taking any
strong action in dealing with an aggressor, but there is a certainty of war, in my
opinion, if you do not act until the beachhead has been built to a greater point
We can't wait to let the dust settle in Cuba,"

STATEMENT BY MRS. ROBERT HITT
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Republican National Committeewoman
October 29, 1962
for California
Richard Nixon's statewide television statement on the
Cuban situation last night was both reassuring and informative.
The people of California, I am sure, are grateful to Mr.
Nixon for speaking out from his vast knowledge on international
Communism and international diplomacy as a result of 14 years of
service to this nation. Mr. Nixon purposely kept his non-partisan
talk to Californians last night strictly on the grave issues affecting
California and the nation and made no reference to Brown or the
campaign. Brown, who has attempted to parlay the Cuban crisis to his
political advantage since its beginning, is now using a cheap politi-
cal attack to downgrade Mr. Nixon's television statement of last night
Mr. Brown obviously is attempting to conceal his lack of
knowledge on international affairs. More importantly, he is reverting
to the idea of one party government or dictatorship during a time of
crisis.
I am surprised and shocked and I call upon Mr. Brown to
retract his ill-advised comments immediately. These comments by Mr.
Brown are so much in violation of the spirit of the Constitution that
I suspect the words must be those given the Governor by one of his
press agents.
I just don't understand Brown's statement regarding Mr.
Nixon's appearance last night. A few days ago, he was saying
California's issues were not that important. Now in typical Brown
turn-about fashion, he says we should not comment on the Cuban
situation but stick to California issues.

STATEMENT BY HERBERT G. KLEIN
For Flat PM Release
Press Secretary to Richard Nixon
Monday, October 29, 1962
Mr. Brown's San Francisco statement calling for the restriction
of free speech during a time of crisis is the most shocking comment
of the campaign.
Californians have flooded the Nixon office with praise for his
statesmanlike appraisal of the crisis and his constructive suggestions
on how California and the nation should meet the problem.
While Mr. Brown was off seeking to become a 24 hour expert on
Cuba and civilian defense, Mr. Nixon determined that California needed
a calm appraisal of the situation which had led to panic, food stam-
pedes and confusion. He supplied this in his television address which
made no mention of Mr. Brown or the campaign.
Mr. Brown says that only one voice should be heard from the
nation, that of the President.
Only in dictator countries is there but one voice allowed. This
suggestion of a restriction of speech amounts to a proposal to violate
the Constitution and destroy freedom of speech.
Two things should be clarified immediately:
1. Does Mr. Brown speak for the President in rejecting
strong support by Mr. Nixon and other Republicans of Mr. Kennedy's
actions to stop the flow of arms into Cuba?
2. Does Mr. Brown speak for President Kennedy in saying no one
other than the President should offer constructive suggestions regar-
ding foreign policy?
It would appear that in a pique of anger Mr. Brown has himself
been guilty of attempting to undermine the satisfying bi-partisan
support

given the President during this crisis.
On September 18 Mr. Nixon made constructive suggestions urging
stronger action against Cuba and he pledged his support for any action
of this kind taken by the President. The steps taken by Mr. Kennedy
were identical to those suggested by Mr. Nixon and Mr. Nixon has
supported them. Does Mr. Brown say it was wrong to offer such advice?
Perhaps Mr. Brown should recall these comments by himself and
other Democrats:
Governor Brown, September 28, 1960 (Los Angeles)
"If ever there was a time in our nation's history when debate
must be full and searching
this is such a time. We must probe
deeply and inquire fully into the troubles that have beset us."
President Kennedy, September 23, 1960 (Denver, Colorado)
"There are those who say that this kind of talk creates dis-
unity in the eyes of the world leaders who are gathered in New York.
But it was a great American and a great senator who once said "If you
permit appeals to unity to bring an end to criticism, we endanger not
only the constitutional liberties of our country but even its future
existence. 9 Those words were spoken in 1951 by Senator Robert A. Taft
and I commend them to his successors."
Former President Woodrow Wilson (World War I)
"While exercising the great powers of the office I hold, I
would regret in a crisis like the one through which we are now passing
to lose the benefit of patriotic and intelligent criticism.

STATE SENATOR JOHN F. McCARTHY
Marin County
Senate Republican Floor Leader
"Richard Nixon last night joined with state, national and
international leaders in urging support of the President in this
time of crisis. He called for a unified front to Khrushchev and
the world.
"Governor Brown, however, in a desperate and contradictory
attempt to capitalize on the Cuban crisis, today said former Vice
President Nixon has no right to address Californians on the Cuban
situation.
"It is appalling that Edmund Brown, now a self appointed
guardian of who has the right to practice freedom of speech and
who does not, should venture forth as censor, critic and savior
of the national unity.
"After hurrying to Washington for a Cuban cram course, our
confused Governor now says the only person who has the right to speak
is the President himself, and occasionally perhaps Pat Brown.
"One day Brown is charging that Mr. Nixon is not sticking to
state issues, and the next day he is in Washington hoping someone
will ask his opinion on how to handle Cuba.
"When he returned to California today to find that Mr. Nixon
had not only presented a seven-point action program for state civil
defense, but gone on statewide television to urge Californians to
support the President, he desperately decided to cancel most of
next week's appearances and advocate silence from everyone.
"His remarks also suggest that he feels no one other than the
President should 'presume' to offer intelligent and constructive views
in time of crisis.
"As a senior member of the California Senate, I know very well
the need for discussion, suggestion and opposing viewpoints at
all times.
"If ever opinions are needed, it is in times such as these when
we must speak to our enemy as one, but think and reason among
ourselves as individuals."

PROGRAMS FOR A GREATER CALIFORNIA
FOR RELEASE - Monday
Text of Statewide Radio Address
October 29, 1962
by RICHARD NIXON
October 28, 1962
At this time of world crisis, when the Communists are stepping
up their activities abroad, it is more important than ever before
that we strengthen freedom at home.
As J. Edgar Hoover pointed out earlier this month, "We
cannot defeat communism with socialism, not with secularism, nor
with pacifism, nor with appeasement or accommodation. We can only
defeat communism with true Americanism.'
California, as the first State in the nation, now has the
opportunity to become a model among the states of how free men,
relying on free enterprise and free institutions, can create better
and fuller lives for all our citizens.
In stark contrast to the empty message of communism, let me
set forth my "12 Goals for Californians."
1. One Million New Jobs
In the next four years, my goal is one million additional
jobs in our state.
Every Californian -- the thousands streaming into our state
each day, the 323,000 now unemployed, the thousands seeking better
jobs -- all deserve an opportunity to earn a decent living.
To make the jobs that Californians must have in the next four
years will require $20 billion in new business investment -- twice
as much as we are now getting.
I propose to get this new job-producing capital -- to upgrade
California from ninth to first in new plant expansion -- by
organizing a "California Crusade for New Business Investment."
As Governor, I will mobilize the talented manpower, supported
by sufficient funds, to aggressively sell our state's tremendous
- More -
- 2 and
industrial advantages to out-of-state business leaders.
2. Tax Reduction
In the next four years, my goal is to see that Californians
spend less in taxes so that they will have more to spend as they
see fit.
I will start by pledging that taxes will not continue to sky-
rocket; that there will be no tax increase in the next four years.
I will also bring immediate tax reform to California which
will encourage industries to expand employment, investors to put
their money in California's industries, and businesses to accelerate
job-producing research and development.
This program, combined with a detailed plan to cut the cost
of government, is the most responsible assurance a public official
can give that taxes will be reduced at the earliest possible date.
To promise more, at a time when my opponent's platform calls
for additional state spending of $1.36 billion in the next four
years, would be demagoguery.
No politician ever made a promise that he didn't keep by first
taking the money out of thepeoples' pockets in taxes. My promise
to you is that I will not spend your tax money without first making
certain that a program is necessary and that government, rather
than private enterprise or private group action, must necessarily
do the job.
3. Cut the Cost of Government
My goal for Californians in the next four years is to give
our state a government that fulfills the necessary services without
waste, frills or costly empire-building.
I will start by cutting $50 million from the cost of govern-
ment next year.
And in the four years ahea d, I pledge that there will be no
increase in state spending per capita and no increase in the
state's bonded debt per capita.
We must reverse the trend that has seen state spending rise
more than four times faster than the population has increased. And
the sooner this is done, the sooner Californians will be relieved
of the heaviest tax burden in the nation.

4. First in Crime Prevention
My four-year goal for Californians is to make our homes and
streets the safest in the nation.
My program to fight crime in California is designed to reduce
the vicious narcotics traffic by 75%, the crime rate by 10% and
juvenile delinquency by a minimum of 12%.
This can be accomplished by giving strong backing to our
dedicated local law enforcement officials -- the best in the nation;
by a realistic and long-overdue legislative program in such fields
as search and seizure laws, protecting the identity of informants
and cracking down on the pornography traffic; by supporting capital
punishment and extending the death penalty to big-time dope
peddlers; and by appointing a top-level Governor's Council on Crime
Prevention and Law Enforcement that will coordinate the fight for a
safer California.
5. The Safest Highways in the Nation
My goal for Californians in the next four years is to trans-
form our highways into the safest in the nation.
Californians deserve a far greater respect for their lives
and their property on the highways.
Through a strong five-point highway safety program, such as
the one now in effect in Connecticut, I will be able to reduce
highway accidents by 10% and highway deaths by 20%
More than 25,000 people have been killed on our highways in
the last six years -- the worst record of highway fatalities in the
nation, This is senseless manslaughter. It can be prevented by
forceful state leadership.
6. The Face of California
My goal, as Governor, is to preserve and improve the Face of
California -- the natural and man-made beauty of our state.
Californians deserve to have an attractive and pleasant place
to live and work.
while our highway program is vital to the growth of the State,
it must move forward with greater consideration for the wishes of
the people it most directly affects. To this end, I have proposed
a series of guidelines and procedures to insure that local citizens
are given a complete hearing by an impartial examiner so that such
- More -
1. 4 -
factors as scenic beauty, recreational areas and historic land-
marks are given full weight in proposed freeway construction.
The same considerations must also be followed in choosing
locations and designs for state buildings.
Californians also deserve strong state leadership to lick the
smog problem, to bring rapid transit to the State, and to end the
careless damage to our state's forests. In all these areas, I
have detailed programs to make California a model for the nation.
7. The Quality of Education
My four-year goal is to assure all the young people of
California a quality education that will give them an equal chance
at the starting line,
We cannot afford to allow one child in our state to be without
textbooks, to attend half-day sessions, or to be short changed
by a crowded classroom and an overburdened teacher.
Our system of local school districts is the best means that
has ever been found of tailoring education to meet local living
conditions. The State has an obligation to strengthen this system
by giving the local school districts adequate funds, by paying for
state-imposed costs, and by providing a multiple choice of textbooks.
8. Fighting Communism
Especially at a time when the Communists have stepped up
their activities abroad -- in Cuba, Berlin and Southeast Asia --
our goal in California must be to intensify our opposition to
communism at home.
We owe our young people the best education in the nation on
the meaning and tactics of communism and the alternatives of freedom.
I also believe that we should not dignify Communists with a
forum on the campuses of our tax-supported colleges and universities.
It is a Communist tactic to lie to further his cause, just as
Khrushchev and Gromyko lied to our President about the Soviet
missile build-up in Cuba. A free educational system, dedicated to
the truth, should have no place for speakers who vow to overthrow
our Constitution by any means that serve their ends.
For this reason, I favor barring from our state campuses any
individuals who refuse to testify before a legislative committee
investigating communism or who refuse to comply with the Subversive
- More -
- 5 -
Activities Control Act of 1951, the basic anti-Communist law of the
land, which I helped to write.
9. Civil Defense
We can expect to live with the Cold War for a long time. But
we must also calmly face the possibility that it could become a
hot war.
If we set for ourselves the goal of having a fully adequate
Civil Defense program, we will also be building another deterrent
to aggression. For if the Communists know that we have the capacity
to absorb an attack and still fight back, they will be less willing
to risk war in the first place.
This is why I have been calling for stronger Civil Defense
measures in California since October, 1961. We will soon become
the first state in population, yet our Civil Defense preparations
lag way behind those already taken by New York.
Dynamic leadership from the Governor's office can. give
Californians the protection they deserve in the areas of shelters
for schools, communities, state buildings and industrial. plants.
10. New Dignity for Senior Citizens
The goal of any State that is dedicated to Christian principles
must be to honor our elderly.
California's senior citizens deserve to have the opportunity
to lead useful and meaningful lives.
Yet unfortunately today inflation has hit hardest at those
who are retired and live on a fixed income.
My program calls for tax reforms to help the elderly, medical
care through a government-supported voluntary health insurance plan,
a new agency to assist in providing adequate housing for the elderly,
a strengthened pension system by getting young chiselers off of
public assistance, and a bold new program called The California
Legion of Service.
The "CALegion" will be a statewide voluntary program to
mobilize the great talents, skills and training of our senior citi-
zens. By giving them the opportunity to help train young people,
particularly the youth who have inadequate schooling, we will give
our older citizens a chance to serve our state and to serve the
future.

11. A Prosperous Agriculture
My goal is to give a square deal to our state's number one
industry -- agriculture.
California's farmers deserve to have a government that will
appoint the best qualified appointees to deal with their problems,
regardless of party label,
Farmers also deserve an administration that will assist them
in getting the supplemental labor needed at harvest time -- and not
just support them at election time. Our state cannot afford to
allow crops to rot in the fields because of phony labor disputes
and bureaucratic harassment.
California must also have a Governor who has the knowledge of
world bargaining tables to fight to keep our farm products from
being put on the international auction block by State Department
negotiators under the new trade program.
12. Equal Opportunity
My goal as Governor will be to make California into a true
opportunity state.
A growing, building California cannot afford to lose the
abilities of hundreds of thousands of our citizens who are not now
getting the opportunity to work in jobs worthy of their capacities
and their training.
It is simply not in the best interests of our state to deny
jobs to any Californian because of race, color, religion or any
other factor that has nothing to do with how well a man can do a job.
Our FEP law, at best, is a very inadequate answer to this
major problem. As Governor, I will see that this law is effectively
administæred. But we must also recognize that mere compliance
with the letter of a law is not the best way to tap the tremendous
resources of manpower and skill that are lying dormantt because of
discrimination.
Therefore, as Governor, I will appoint a Council on Equality
of Opportunity with Lt. Governor George Christopher as Chairman
which will take the initiative in bringing labor and management
leaders together to find voluntary means to open up equal oppor-
tunities for jobs, promotion and training.
- More -
- 7 -
This Council will be modeled on the President's Committee on
Government Contracts, which I had the honor to head from 1953
through 1960. Our success in Washington will help make major
break-throughs in the fight against discrimination in California.
####
These are "12 Goals for Californians" -- important parts of
21 detailed "Programs for a Greater California" that I have pre-
sented in this campaign.
In my effort to bring these programs to you -- the voters of
California -- I have travelled more miles; seen more people; been
heard by more people on television, radio and in person, than any
other statœ candidate in California's history.
I am grateful for the enthusiastic response my programs have
received. From all indications, I am confident that on November
6th, the voice of the people will. ring out of the West, saying to
our listeners throughout the nation, "we, the people of California,
with a great tradition of seeking opportunity, with a true frontier
spirit, cast our vote for free enterprise, self-reliance, local
responsibility, and for the best state government in America."

At this time of crises, the need for education on the meaning and tactics of
communism has never been clearer. No nation ever beat an enemy through its own
ignorance.
Traveling throughout the state and nation, I have found that America's weakness
is not too much patriotism or too little patriotism but too little knowledge about
communism.
Every high school football team scouts its opponent before the big game--learn-
ing and analyzing the strong and weak points of its opposition. The struggle with
communism is no game, but it takes no less advance knowledge.
I want California's young people to have the best anti-communist education in
the nation. This is why I give high priority to a mandatory high school course,
under local school district supervision, and offering a multiple choice of textbooks.
If our students were required to read either J. Edgar Hoover's "The Study of Communism"
or Roger Swearingen's "The World of Communism", they would not be surprised that
Khrushchev and Gromyko lied to our President about the soviet missile buildup in Cuba.
Any education on communism must also teach the alternative of freedom. For, as
J. Edgar Hoover. wrote in his book, "The ultimate guarantee against communism encroach-
ment is a deep and abiding awareness on the part of each citizen that freedom is in-
herently superior to communism."
But teaching about communists doesn't mean having communist teachers. A free
educational system founded on the truth has no place for anyone who is sworn to lie
for his cause.

According to the specific critèria I have proposed, no individual who has
refused to testify before a legislative committee investigating communism or who
has refused to register under the Subversive Activities Control Act would be allowed
to speak on the campus of a tax supported institution.
It is no secret that the communists have intensified their activities to attract
young people to their cause. The Moscow Declaration of 1960 stated, "There are
new opportunities now to draw the younger generation into the struggle for peace
and democracy and for the great ideals of communism."
Just as we owe our troops the best weapons available in any armed conflict with
communism, so too do we owe our young people the best education on communism so
that we will also win the idealogical struggle.
Communists are taught to bide their time. A defeat in Cuba or Berlin will
only be a pause in the coming generation of idealogical, political and military
warfare that we must expect.
This is why we must now calmly di scuss the best way to educate our youth against
communism. It would be a mockery of the American system to remove one of the most
crucial areas of concern from public debate. I fully agree with Mr. Brown's state-
ment during the 1960 campaign, when the communists were stepping up activities in
Quemoy and Matsu, that "if ever there was a time in our nation's history when de-

RICHARD NIXON
October 28, 1962
San Diego
October 27, 1962
The Cuban crisis points up the fact that Californians must
have an accelerated and improved Civil Defense program.
As I said in a major speech in San Diego in October, 1961, our
goal as the first state in the nation, must be to have the best
program in the nation to assure the safety of all our citizens in
the event of a nuclear attack.
The existing program in New York demonstrates what decisive
leadership from the Governor's office can accomplish. In every
area of Civil Defense preparations, we now lag way behind New
York. As we pass New York in population, every Californian also
wants to pass New York in Civil Defense and all other areas of
vital concern.
I want to make it clear that under no circumstances should we
have a "panic" program. Nothing could be more foolish than for
people to rush out and buy inadequate shelters for their back
yards.
Therefore, to assure the safety of all Californians, this is
the seven-point action program I will take as Governor to improve
Civil Defense and to provide maximum protection within the re-
sources we have available.
1. School Shelters
I will askthe Legislature to permit the use of school bonds
for building dual purpose shelters in public schools.
Under this plan, it will be financially possible to design
and construct gymnasiums and other school buildings so that they
can protect our children in the event of attack.
2. Community Shelters
I will work with the local communities to revise building
codes and specifications to permit community shelter construction.
- More -
- 2 -
I will also encourage communities to build shelters as vol-
untary group projects. A Gallup Poll in December, 1961, showed
that the public is willing to support such community efforts.
Sixty-two percent said they would be "willing to work a day or two
on weekends" and 19% said they would be willing to "give one or
two days pay."
3. Shelters in State Buildings
Whenever possible, I will see that shelters are made a part
of the design of new state buildings.
I will also encourage. local governments to incorporate
shelters in their building plans.
4. Shelters in Industry
In all parts of the country, business leaders have been study-
ing programs to provide shelters for their workers. Many have
already made important contributions to assure the safety of
their workers in the event of attack.
Strong, dynamic leadership from the Governor's office will
greatly accelerate such programs.
5. Stocking of Shelters
We must immediately see that all existing shelters are
stocked with a minimum two week supply of canned food, fresh water
and medical supplies.
Where it is found that such supplies are now sitting in
Federal warehouses, we must take prompt action to have them moved
into designated shelter areas. We should survey other possible
storage areas.
6. Public Information and Training
We must speed up our public information and training program.
The first Annual Report of the California Disaster Office,
published in 1959, called for a program "to train and educate
every Californian in what he should do to protect himself and his
family during any kind of disaster."
Two years later, at the end of June, 1961, only one
Californian out of every 5,000 had taken the prescribed 12 hour
adult education course. This was one-fourth of the national aver-
age on a per capita basis,
- More
- 3 -
7. Shelter Standards and False Advertising
We must have strict enforcement of both shelter standards
and advertising standards to prevent people from being misled in
the highly technical field of shelter construction.
A year ago, the Attorney General had to investigate fifty
cases of suspected fraud in construction, design or advertising.
This sort of callous deception can be prevented by having the
Disaster Office carefully define and strictly enforce the terms
that can be used in advertising shelters.

"We need Mr. Nixon's leadership and international experience in these perilous
times", declared W. H. "Reg" Regelin, head of the Senior Citizens for Nixon Committee
at Rossmoor Leisure World, the Nation's largest community of retired persons.
"Dick Nixon", Regelin stated, "has earned the support of our older citizens on
the basis of past performance and his program for the future. During his years in
Congress and also during the Eisenhower-Nixon administration he supported increased
payments and extended benefits under the Social Security Program. His plan for the
next four years will enable our older citizens to manage their own affairs and to
have new dignity, happiness and comfort.
"His plan calls for tax reforms, improved medical assistance, better administra-
tion of welfare programs without cutting one cent from assistance to the aged, the
blind or the handicapped, development of more moderately priced housing, and the
mobilization of the talents and wisdom of our senior citizens in a California Legion
of Service.
"As loyal Californians we are interested in good government in California. Mr.
Nixon will kick the second raters and political hacks out of Sacramento and put in a
team of the best executives and technicians in the state regardless of party affilia-
tion.
"We are deeply resentful of the malicious and unscrupulous campaign of falsehoods
and distortions being conducted against Mr. Nixon by such self-appointed spokesmen for
senior citizens as George McLain. I am happy to report that such tactics are boom-
eranging. Thoughtful people are aware of Dick Nixon's record of progress and of his
deep concern for the special needs of our elderly citizens."
Regelin and Sam Dean are co-chairmen of the Nixon Senior Citizens Committee.
Regelin, a retired businessman served in World War I and II, and is Commander of the
Leisure World Chapter of Veterans of World War I. Dean is a retired Marine. He is
a veteran of World War I and II and also served in the Korean conflict.
Regelin stated that the committee is making an appeal to senior citizens through-
out the state in an effort to counteract the smear campaign against Nixon and to
tell the true story of Nixon's interest in senior citizens problems.

San Mateo, California
October 25, 1962
We are living in a moment of great crisis for the United States and the
world. The times call for calm, strong, forceful leadership by all persons in
positions of authority.
The Cuban situation now transcends partisan debate. Whatever arguments may
have been, now that the course of action has been decided, now that the prestige
of the United States has been committed, we must speak with one voice to the world.
It is easy to become uninformed, emotional, excited and start runs on
gasoline stations and grocery stores. But we must not panic. We must keep our
heads, for you can be sure Khrushchev is watching how Americans react. If we
can't take it, he will provoke us all the more,
While the situation is grave, and involves serious risks, we must view it
calmly and in perspective. Clearly the President could not have acted otherwise.
He deserves our full support. For to have Castro controlling powerful weapons
of destruction would be a frightful thing. Castro, compared to Khrushchev, is
a madman.
I know Khrushchev. He is not a man who is a slave to his passion. He uses
rather than loses his temper. And he will not risk Moscow to save Havana.
The greatest danger to the cause of freedom today is not defeat in war, but
defeat without war. Forty-five years ago Communism was a cellar conspiracy.
Now, through revolution, subversion and coup d'etat, the Communists control one--
third of the world.
Communists look at the world in terms of a century and they are willing to
wait. They think they are strong and we are soft. But the greater likelihood is
that when Khrushchev is put to the point of no return he will back down.
Americans must accept the cold war as a way of life. Today the battlefront is
Cuba. Tomorrow it may be southeast Asia or Berlin.
One of the great marks of America is that we have never in our history dis-
continued political discussion, even when we have been at war. For us to follow any
other practice, especially when not at war, would be out of character with the
American tradition. This is a time for us to strengthen our understanding and
devotion to our own ideals.
We must not play the Communists' game - either out of fear or ignorance.
When our belief in free enterprise, decentralized government, voluntary action and
other political debates can keep us free and alive, those who rally to the banner
of "Better Red than dead" are either fools or cowards.

October 24, 1962
o, California
:RAMENTO--In its first press conference today, the Nixon Trut
ccused Governor Brown of conducting a "hit and myth" campaign
1g his opponent with myths that have no basis in reality."
he truth squad, which earlier today accused Brown of being a
tical litterbug who has left a disordered trail of half-truths
nnuendoes" released a list of ten major Brown "myths" which the
ers plan to refute in dogging the Governor on his campaign trave

wn has refused a face-to-face confrontation on the issues, we have
n forced to take this means of countering his claims. We challer
n to refute the facts WE place before the Sacramento public when 1
rives later today."
Major Brown Myths and their answers as released by the truth
1: "There have been no new taxes in three years."
ruth: A "balancing account tax" passed by the 1961 legislature wil
California employers an additional $160 million this year. T
a tax on everyone since these costs in many cases will be passe
to consumers. This is in addition to the 1959 Brown tax progr
largest tax increase in the history of any state -- which has
rought in nearly a billion dollars in increased revenues.
2: "The master plan for higher education is a Brown inventi
The master plan for higher education represents decades
i-partisan planning going back to 1899. Principal architects
egislature were Assemblymen Dorothy Donahoe, Democrat, now de
Ernest Geddes, Republican, now retired. Most of the actu
done during the Knight Administration.
3 "The California Water Plan is a Brown achievement."
when he campaigned for it in 1960, Brown stated:
- 2 -
"I think it is important that we remember that the water pro-
gram embodied in Proposition One was conceived and initiated in the
Republican Administration of Governor Earl Warren. It was perfected
in a multitude of ways during the
...
administration of Governor
Goodwin Knight."
Myth 4: "California is a mecca for industry."
Truth: The Sunday, October 14, issue of the Daily Oklahoman of
Oklahoma City states that a team of Oklahoma businessmen found that
in California "Oklahoma now looks to industrialists as the great
vineyards of California once looked to displaced Oklahoma farmers."
The leader of that team, J. B. Martin, of Miami, was quoted as saying
of Los Angeles: "The tax situation here is just eating up business,
and it wants to get out."
It looks as if California has now become the dustbowl, at
least for industry.
Myth 5: "The toughest and most advanced narcotics laws in the nation
are the result of Brown leadership."
Truth: Brown fought similar laws in the 1959 and 1960 session of the
legislature, until overwhelming public pressure forced him to act in
1961. In 1960, he placed "testing of the juice of fresh grapes" on
the agenda for the special session of the legislature, but turned down
all pleas to do the same with narcotics.
Myth 6: "Nixon will censor school textbooks."
Truth: There has never been a Nixon statement relating to the per-
sonal censorship of school textbooks, and we challenge Brown to pro-
duce one.
Myth 7: "The consumer counsel was necessary to protect consumers from
retail frauds."
Truth: There were already six agencies engaged in consumer pro-
tection at the time Brown created the consumer counsel, including the
-more-
- 3 -
Consumer Frauds Division of the Attorney General's Office. The con-
sumer counsel has not uncovered one case of consumer fraud.
Myth 8:"Nixon will use Sacramento as the road to the White House."
Truth: Brown has used this myth in both of his campaigns for gover-
nor, accusing his opponents of not being interested in California.
Brown, however, repeatedly made "his" availability known after his
election, until one-half vote at the 1960 convention put an end to
this. By inviting the Republican contenders into the state in '64,
Nixon has effectively taken himself out of the race, even as a
"favorite son" candidate.
Myth 9: "Brown has balanced all four of his budgets."
Truth: Brown has balanced his budgets only at the expense of doubling
the authorized debt on the taxpayers of California. His current
budget will be balanced only if the voters approve Proposition 1-A
on the ballot.
Myth 10: "Nixon's budget cuts would curtail welfare."
Truth: Members of Governor Brown's own party have insisted that
removing chiselers could save millions in welfare without reducing
payments to deserving recipients. A case revealed in Los Angeles
this week cited thousands upon thousands of dollars in medical and
dental frauds. Republicans introduced the basic welfare laws of this
state under Governor Merriam in the mid-thirties. Nixon will give
better administration without removing one deserving child, or widow,
or old person from the rolls.

FOR FLAT PM RELEASE
before Joint Pico Rivera Service Clubs
Thursday
October 25, 1962
October 25, 1962
12 Noon
at Romata Inn
Pico Rivera, California
In a period when the Communists are stepping up their activities abroad, we
often lose sight of what will ultimately win the struggle for freedom.
People will choose freedom because it upholds the dignity of man. And no-
where is this more evident than in voluntary actions as represented by service
clubs, church groups and other non-governmental organizations. No such private
actions are allowed in a dictatorial-totalitarian society.
This imposes the responsibility on us to develop the full potential of our
voluntary agencies.
One area in which citizen organizations can make a great contribution to
the fight against communism is in crime prevention and upholding respect for the
law.
As J. Edgar Hoover has pointed out, communism always starts by undermining
respect for officers of the law and by downgrading those who are responsible for
law enforcement. It is a standard Communist tactic to raise the cry of police
brutality, whether or not it is justified.
It is time for responsible citizens to fight back--to speak up when peace
officers are unfairly attacked; to point up cases where they are doing a good job;
and to step up local voluntary activities to prevent crime, especially in the
field of curbing juvenile delinquency.
Law enforcement is government's business, but crime prevention is everybody's
business.
Government must intensify its support of our dedicated local law enforcement
officers-- both with legislation and recognition.
This is why I have proposed an eight-point action program that includes a
top level Governor's Council, the death penalty for big-time dope peddlers, new
legislation to re-define search and seizure laws and to protect the identity of
informants, who are essential to narcotics cases, and "Annual California State
Awards for Excellence in Local Law Enforcement."
Candidates for these awards "Oscars" for crime-fighting- will be nominated
by local citizens' groups, newspapers and local government. The awards will be
a dramatic way of saying to our outstanding peace officers, "We, the people of
- 2 -
California, are 100 percent behind you; we admire and respect you; and we
appreciate the sacrifice you are making to insure our safety."
As J. Edgar Hoover said earlier this month, "The fight against crime and
Communism can be won, and it will be won with the help of every decent American
citizen. No individual in this great land of ours should underestimate the
importance of his or her role."

REPUBLICAN STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE
914 SOUTH OLIVE
LOS ANGELES
FOR PMS WEDNESDAY, OCT. 24
Carl lindstrom, a veterans leader and vice chairman of
the Los Angeles County Republican Central Committee, today urged
Gov. Edmund G. Brown to make his position clear on statements against
J. Edgar Hoover made at a Democratic meeting.
Lindstrom referred to a statement to the 13-state Western
Democratic Conference in Seattle by W. H. Ferry of Pasadena in which
he accused FBI Director Hoover of "sententious poppycock" in building
what Ferry called a "false legend" of Communism's strength in the
United States.
"Following this statement, U. S. Attorney General Robert
F. Kennedy said 'communism is a very serious threat and anyone who
underestimates the danger of that threat is doing a disservice to
the country', Lindstrom said.
He said that "while many patriotic Democrats took exception
to Ferry's intemperate statements, we still have not heard from
Gov. Brown, a leader of his party.
"Brown should clear the air by throwing his support to
J. Edgar Hoover and repudiating Ferry's anti-FBI assertions."
Lindstrom also pointed out that Hoover said last July that
the inclination to minimize the internal threat of communist "can
have tragic consequences."
He asked, "does Gov. Brown agree or disagree with J. Edgar
Hoover's warning to the nation not to minimize the domestic communist
threat? This is a serious question, and the people should know how
the governor stands."

STATEMENT BY H. R. HALDEMAN
NIXON FOR GOVERNOR CAMPAIGN MANAGER
LOS ANGELES
Throughout his speech before the Los Angeles Junior Chamber of
Commerce on Wednesday, October 17, Governor Brown fearlessly challenged
his opponent, Richard Nixon, to produce his plans for reforming the state
government.
Typical was this statement: "I challenge Mr. Nixon here and
now to produce his plan for reducing operations of our vital water
department."
Governor Brown has shown unusual courage in this campaign by
"challenging" Mr. Nixon, He's always "challenging" Mr. Nixon whenever
Mr. Nixon is not present.
Nevertheless, the challenge is accepted. Whenever the Governor
wants to challenge Mr. Nixon to his face, we are prepared to make such
arrangements. Mr. Nixon is prepared to cancel all his campaign plans
and -- in the American tradition -- engage in a real debate with his
rival.
That's our challenge to Mr. Brown!

SACRAMENTO--Calling Brown a "political litterbug who has left-a
disordered trail of half-truths and innuendoes," Republican leaders
today announced the formation of a 'clean-up truth squad" to follow after
Brown and counter his "Distortion-A-Day Campaign."
Chairman of the GOP Truth Squad Committee is Senate Minority Leader
John F. McCarthy, Marin County. Others who will see rotating duty include:
Assemblymen William Bagley, John Busterud, now candidate for State Treasurer,
Houston I. Flournoy, Harold Levering, Don Mulford, and Howard Thelin;
State Senators Vernon Sturgeon, Don Grunsky, and Robert Lagomarsino; State
Central Committee Chairman Caspar Weinberger and National Committeeman
Joseph Martin, Jr.
McCarthy said the truth squad would kick off its activities with a
press conference in Sacramento today in advance of Brown's arrival.
"Because Brown has consistently run away from face-to-face confrontation
on the issues, it has become imperative that we follow him," McCarthy
said. "We couldn't allow his Distortion-A-Day Campaign to continue forever.
"We challenge him upon his arrival to explain away the new facts we
will present today.
"Brown is a political litterbug, leaving a disordered trail of half-
truths and innuendo across the state. Our job will be to clean up this
litter and present the clean truth to the seven million voters of California,"
McCarthy concluded.

ASSEMBLYMAN HAROLD K. LEVERING
MEMBER OF THE ASSEMBLY
CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE
FOR WEDNESDAY PM RELEASE
Office: GR 2-5453 - Home: GR 2-7310
October 24, 1962
State Disaster Director Allan K. Jonas, whose partisan political activity is
being investigated for possible violations of the Hatch Act, was accused today of
"gross negligence threatening the survival of many Californians in the event of
disaster."
Assemblyman Harold K. Levering of Los Angeles said he based his charge on pub-
lished reports that blood plasma purchased for civil defense medical stockpiles had
been allowed to lose its potency and then had to be converted to other uses.
"Plasma and politics don't mix," Levering said.
At the same time, it was disclosed that Jonas operates an Inglewood real estate
business on the side.
"This raises a serious question of possible conflict of interest. It also is
additional proof of the charges that the Disaster Office is in the hands of people who
are not devoting full time to preparing the state and its people against natural
disaster or possible enemy attack.
A dinner brochure put out in connection with President Kennedy's visit to Los
Angeles last Fall carried this advertisement: "Allan K. Jonas and Associates,
Specialists in Industrial and Commercial Real Estate. Main Office: 425 E. Manchester
Ave., Inglewood, Calif., OR 8-4949."
As State Disaster Director, Mr. Jonas receives an annual salary of $17,640.
Expanding on his charge of "gross negligence" regarding the Disaster Office,
Levering said:
"These are the facts: In 1952 the state purchased 38,160 units of plasma for
stockpiles to be used in treating disaster victims. The cost was $1,050,566, of whic
both the state and federal government paid about half. The guaranteed potency of the
plasma expired in 1957.
"And," added Levering, "Governor Brown's appointee, Allan Jonas, apparently did
nothing about the matter until 1961 when he turned over the questionable plasma to a
-MORE-
2-2-2
private laboratory in Los Angeles. The arrangement was for the laboratory to convert
the plasma into serum albumen for treating shock in return for a costly by-product,
gamma globulin, used in treating measles.
"The most incredible aspect of all this is that Governor Brown actually praised
his appointee, Allan Jonas, for making the deal.
"On October 16, 1961, Disaster Director Jonas testified that California would
be caught 'completely naked' if an enemy then chose to launch an attack," said
Levering. "Today, one year later, there has been no noticeable change. California
and its millions of people will still be caught 'completely naked' if the enemy
should choose to strike.
"Chaos, vacillation and indifference continue to characterize the efforts of
the Civil Disaster Office. There is a lack of trained personnel in the highest
levels. Allan Jonas, himself, was nothing more than a defeated candidate for public
office when he was appointed by Governor Brown.
"The sad truth is that the California Disaster Office has been converted by
Governor Brown into a dumping ground for jobless Democratic politicians. In the
Pasadena Office of this department, eight employees have been assigned to working
almost full time for Governor Brown's re-election. They have even been asked to
make personal financial contributions to Brown's campaign.
"Here is still one more incredible example of incompetence and cronyism in
Governor Brown's management of the affairs of the soon-to-be largest state of the
union.
"The blame for this incredible state of affairs lies primarily with Governor
Brown. The Governor knew that Mr. Jonas, a defeated political candidate, had
absolutely no experience in Civil Defense or Civil Disaster when he appointed him.
Brown himself recognized Mr. Jonas' limitations when he later transferred the
responsibility of Civil Defense to the National Guard."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
While the crises in Cuba is military in character, this should not obscure the
basic fact that the struggle with communism is probably going to be decided in the
long run by the relative economic, political and idealogical strength of our two
systems.
This is an appropriate time for us to remind ourselves that communism is betting
on a system that concentrates all power in a dictator. Our answer to communism must
not be to turn to their way by concentrating more power in big government in Washing-
ton. It must be to strengthen our own federal system of strong local and state
government.
146 years ago, Thomas Jefferson said, "What destroys the liberty and the rights
of man is concentrating all powers into one body." It is vitally important that we
now reassert and reemphasize our democratic system of decentralizing power.
As Governor, I shall always be guided by the principle that we should turn to
government in Washington only when we cannot do the job in California.
We in California, the first state in the union, have the opportunity and respon-
sibility to lead the nation in strengthening the character and responsiveness of
local government. The Governor can help immessurably--but it must be done by deeds,
not mere lip service.
1. I believe it is of top priority for the Governor to provide leadership to
help local government find the financial resources they need to meet increased de-
mands for public service.
-MORE-
2-2-2
This year the people should not have been denied the right to vote on a con-
stitutional amendment to provide a tax on telephone companies that would have added
millions of dollars to the revenues of California cities.
This proposal, which your League staff and others have worked on, would replace
revenue lost by court decisions holding that telephone companies do not require
local franchises. To the credit of the telephone company, they recognize the in-
herent justice of the proposed amendment and had agreed not to oppose it.
2. I believe the Governor must give strong support to our local law enforce-
ment officials.
After the Carol Lane decision, I believe that the legislature should not have
been prevented from acting to redefine jurisdiction so that strong local laws would
not have been superceded by weaker state laws. Local authorities should be em-
powered to take stronger action than provided for in state law when they believe
that this is in the best interest of their people.
3. I believe that the Governor must give strong leadership to see that greater
consideration is given to local authorities in freeway construction and the loca-
tion and design of state buildings.
I support guidelines and procedures to insure that local authorities receive
an adequate hearing by an impartial examiner, adequate notice and full mgard for
due process of the law.
4. I believe that the state must not impose any additional programs on the
local school districts without providing the necessary funds to pay for the state
imposed costs.
Regretably the trend has been to increase mandatory requirements while de-
creasing
state
support.
38
In mv program of teaching which i. believe 18 vitalty important AT
this time, local school districts will also have a multiple choice of textbooks--
as I believe they should in every educational area.
********
There has been a disturbing trend in recent years to downgrade local govern-
ment and build up federal and state government at the expense of local government.
California is a place to start reversing this trend. As Governor, I pledge to wo:
with our city and county officials to give California not only the best state
government in the nation but also the best local government.

Richard M. Nixon today sent the following telegram to President Kennedy.
"For the sake of thousands of California families who earn their living in
shipbuilding, I respectfully ask you to veto legislation to repeal the six percent
differential for Pacific Coast chipbuilding.
"The six percent differential was enacted as an important national defense
measure. At a time when the nation is seriously threatened by the international
Communist conspiracy, It is more necessary than ever before to maintain a strong
shipbuilding industry on both coasts.
"I urge you to veto the repeal of the six percent differential so that a Senate
hearing can be held and the Joint Chiets of Staff can have an opportunity to tell
the Senate whether a West Coast differential is needed in our defense effort.
"This bill, passed in the closing days of Congress, has never had a hearing
before the Senate Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee, although this Committee
has complete and exclusive jurisdiction over such matters.
"The Maritime Commission has stated positively that there is still a four and
a quarter percent differential in West LO East shipbuilding costs."

Statement by RICHARD NIXON
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
All citizens--voters and candidates alike have an even greater duty to prove
the strength of our democratic system in time of crises than in more normal times.
The strength of free government as opposed to a dictatorship is in our dis-
cussion of great issues.
It would be a distortion of our system and not in the best interests of Cali-
fornia to declare a moratorium on political debate because of the desire of all
Americans to support the President's Cuba policy.
I feel that I have a responsibility to the people to continue to point out
the deficiencies of the present state administration.
As these deficiencies relate to the fight against communism it is not a ques-
tion of which candidate is more anti-communist than the other but which candidate
has the most effective program to deal with the communist menace in California.
This was true before the Cuban crises; it becomes more important now.
Therefore, I shall continue to present to the people my positive program to
make California a model to the nation of effective anti-communist education investi-
gation and legislation.
While I am campaigning on state issues, and all my Programs for a Greater
California are directed to solving state problems, I will not hesitate to speak out
on international events when I feel I can make a contribution to public understand-
ing. As one who first detailed my opposition to Castro in a confidential memorandum
to the CIA, after a 3-hour conference with the Cuban dictator in April 1959, I be-
lieve that my views on this may be particularly pertinent to the people of California.

Address on Cuba 10/22/62
As one who has urged for several months that stronger
action be taken in Cuba, I fully support the actions the
President has taken today.
There are obvious risks in this action. But the
risk of inaction is immensely greater. In my view, this
action will not lead to war. As in Quemoy and Matsu and
Lebanon, in dealing with Communist aggression, strong
action actually decreases the possibility of war.
From travelling throughout California and talking
to thousands of people, I am sure that an overwhelming
majority of the people in the first state of the union
will support the President's actions.
Although the nation is in the midst of a political
campaign, I know that whenever our peace and freedom is
threatened Democrats and Republicans alike will think
of America first, rather than the party.

if he is elected governor.
The Republican candidate told a telethon audience here he had been informed that pen-

benefits if Democratic Gov. Brown is defeated by Nixon.
"Nothing could be more vicious or malicious or untrue," Nixon said in answer to a

RICHARD NIXON SPEAKS TO CALIFORNIA'S SENIOR CITIZENS
A digest of his statewide broadcast on
October 6, 1962
Nearly nine Californians out of every 100 are over 65. If our 1.7 million
senior citizens were all in one city, the population would surpass Baltimore,
Maryland -- the sixth largest city in the United States.
These people must have the opportunity to lead productive lives. California
cannot afford, to lose the talent and wisdom they have gained over the years. They
must have a chance to enjoy retirement.
Here are five ways I hope to lead the way as Governor in the next four
years for older people to manage their own affairs and to have new dignity,
happiness and comfort.
1. TAX REFORM
I propose three immediate actions. First, I will provide leadership
from, the Governor's office to get tax relief on the homes of senior citizens who
have limited incomes. SECOND, I WILL OPPOSE SUCH MOVES AS THE ONE PROPOSED BY
THE STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION TO IMPOSE A STATEWIDE PROPERTY TAX FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN CALIFORNIA HISTORY. Third, I will recommend that the California income tax be
changed to give a double exemption amounting to $3,000 to those over 65 and those
who are blind.
2. MEDICAL AID
For 14 years I have supported the voluntary insurance principle as
an effective approach to the problem of medical care. It uses government to spread
the risk. But it keeps government from coming between the patient and his doctor.
As Governor, I will continue to work to encourage the expansion of voluntary health
insurance in California.
I will support Congressional action for government participation in the
payment of premiums for private health insurance plans. SUCH LEGISLATION WOULD
COVER ALL PERSONS OVER ALL PERSONS OVER 65, NOT JUST THOSE ON SOCIAL SECURITY. It
would also provide for the cost of out-patient care and cover doctors' bills.
I will seek to amend the California Medical Assistance Program for the Aged,
passed in 1961, to ELIMINATE THE 30-DAY WAITING PERIOD. Cost of treatment does not
wait 30 days and neither should payments under this program.

3. ELIMINATE CHISELERS--PROTECT THE DESERVING:
Unless steps are immediately taken to restore public confidence,
there will be a serious public reaction to the whole welfare program. I propose
a program to save $27 million annually in the handling of welfare. This savings
will come primarily from tightening regulations in the ANC program, which now
makes it more profitable for a man not to work than to work. AND THIS SAVING WILL
BE MADE WITHOUT CUTTING. ONE CENT FROM ASSISTANCE TO THE AGED, THE BLIND OR THE
HANDICAPPED. My program wholeheartedly supports aid to the aged, the blind, the
disabled, and needy children. My program is aimed at getting chiselers off
welfare rolls.
4. HOUSING
WE MUST CREATE MORE HOUSING FOR THE ELDERLY AT PRICES THEY CAN
AFFORD. I will work to establish a California Housing Finance Agency to harness:
private investment to build housing for the aged.
5. USEFUL LIVES
We must make maximum use of the talent and wisdom of our senior
citizens. I will mobilize the great talents, skills and training of our senior
citizens in a "CALIFORNIA LEGION OF SERVICE." Retired persons will be asked to
jain "CALegion" and help train our young people. The way this new plan will
work is that a "CALegion" Council will study community needs throughout the
State and then issue calls for volunteers as need develops.
These are the five ways that I'll bring an added dignity to the lives
of our senior citizens--not by degrading them with bureaucratic harassment and
red tape, but by making government responsive to real needs,

Southern California women are wrapping up an "Action Package" full of votes
for Richard M. Nixon, candidate for Governor of California.
Hundreds of women from every Southern California community are engaged in
this all-out volunteer effort on behalf of the former Vice President.
Their project is well-named: "Action Package." It is a forceful, four-
point personal contact program carried out on these fronts:
1. Conduct "Coffee Hours" to meet new people and enroll new volunteers
for the Nixon-for-Governor campaign.
2. Sell campaign jewelry to help pay the cost of telephoning and
other expenses.
3. Enroll youthful "Nixonettes" as colorful additions to political
rallies, parades and other events.
4. Enlist headquarters volunteers for processing all levels of
campaign work.
This ambitious program, now operating smoothly on a vast scale, is under
the direction of Mrs. Valley M. Knudsen of Los Angeles, Vice Chairman for Southern
California of the Nixon-for-Governor Committee. She is also chairman of the
"Action Package" program. Henriette Cowgill is coordinator and Vice Chairman.
Betty Haldeman is Headquarters Volunteer Chairman at 3950 Wilshire Boulevard,
Los Angeles, DUnkirk 5-9161.
"Some idea of the extent of our operation is apparent in our Coffee Hour
set-up," Mrs. Knudsen explained. "There are 18,610 voting precincts in the 11
counties of Southern California and our goal is to have a Coffee Hour in as many
of them as possible.'
Young people are showing great enthusiasm for the Nixonettes Mrs. Knudsen
said. Eligible are girls in the 9th grade through high school, college girls,
and young married women. Nixonettes are formed in teams of 10 and the younger
girls are chaperoned by an adult at all times.

"Nixonettes are to campaign events what a brass band is to a parade --
the color and the flavor that make you want to join up and WIN," declared Mrs.
Knudsen.
Trademark of the Nixonettes is a white straw sailor hat banded in gold
ribbon, with "Nixon for Governor" lettered in blue. Nixonette medallions, pom
poms, streamers and shoulder bands, and white baskets filled with "Elect Nixon
Governor" bottons, complete the ensembles.
Put it all together -- socials, telephone campaigns, financing, Nixonettes,
and volunteer recruitment, and that's Richard Nixon's "Action Package" --
1962 style.
