April 21, 1960 Dear Mendel: I want you to know how pleased I am that you will be on the California delegation favoring my nomination at the Republican National Convention. I am, of course, grateful for the friendship and sup- port you have shown me over the past years, but I think it understandable that I should particularly appreciate your desire to be counted in my corner in Chicago. I shall look forward to seeing you there, and in the meantime I hope you will do everything within your power to prepare for the united and determined effort which will be necessary if the Republican Party is to win in our State this November. While I wish it had been possible for many of our mutual friends and Party workers to have been able to serve on this delegation, I believe you will agree with me that the screening committees in making their selections con- cluded with a delegation broadly representative of a Party well on its way to rejuvenation in California. With every good wish, Sincerely, Richard Nixon Mr. Mendel B. Silberberg 802 North Rexford Drive Beverly Hills, California
