Dear Mr. President:
This is a letter of thanks to you for your continued interest in
East Whittier Friends Church in which you have held membership
for many years. We especially appreciate the use of the Nixon
House for our Minister of Christian Education and family.
During the past year we have seen and felt the wonderful way in
RW
which the work of the church has moved ahead in our individual
lives, church life and in the community.
The pledges that have come in to date toward our 1973 budget of
$68,314.50 amount to $40,153.80. We enclose a pledge card for
your use.
We are glad to report that we are starting the new year debt free
and a substantial balance is in our General Fund. In addition,
the special offering for medical supplies for our missionary nurse,
Virginia Canfield, in Guatemala, amounted to $591.23. We are
indeed grateful for a year of progress and growth during 1972,
therefore we share that good news with you and fellow members of
East Whittier Friends.
Sincerely,
T. J.Eugune Eugene Coffin Off

Dear glorious Pat:
Time for another little 'chat' from The Northern White House,
For Kearns, where The special White House flag flies.
I have enclosed a copy of a letter I had in the L.I. Press a
couple of days ago, for your and The President's perusal. You
had a 'fore-runner' of this one before (when I first wrote it),
but there was a long delay in its being published. The con-
cluding paragraph is 'new' (not in the copy I sent you before).
Over the years I have written and had published, as you know,
many Letters to the Editor, in support of and defense of Our
Hero, long before he finally made The White House, which he
and his family now grace and dignify. But my family and friends
think this 'cryptic' analogy, likening The President to Christ,
and His crucifixion and the trial of R. Nixon, is one of my
best.
I suppose I will catch some flak from the crazies, even be told
I'm sacráligeous and worse, but if some bastards think Nixon is
"Satanic" I have the right to think he is Christ-like. I think
I have plenty of company.
The at-last publishing of this letter is kind of interesting.
May I explain? You see, The L.I. Press (circ. 500,000) is a
Newhouse newspaper and, thus, quite 'liberal'. In New York,
not as leftist as the stuffy lousey Times or the far-out Post,
but left-of-center, even tho endorsing our guy in the last run.
(But Hubie in '68), and Kennedy in '60.
O.K., the chain is Jewish-owned, Jewish-managed and, principally,
Jewish-staffed. And liberal, as we have seen. Oddly, tho, when
the letter (the original) reached a guy named Arnold Friedmann,
the Asst. Managing Editor, who 'selects' what appears in Point
of View, along with other duties, he called me at my office and
said something like this: "Mr. Kearns, I have your letter. I
want to use it, feature it. I understand what you are saying,
that the President is being crucified by people who hate him,
who 'resent his coming', going back to his early campaigns and
before Hiss, just as your Christ went thru 2,000 years ago. But,
while I get what you're saying, and Dave Starr, the Editor-in-
Chief, understands it (when I showed it to him), we were concerned
that the 'average reader', with a lower I.Q., might find it over
his head. So, will you please write some more, a concluding para-
graph, or something, and "tie youranalogy in' better? Say, some-
where "Watergate", even if you don't wish to say Christ and/or
Nixon."
Mrs. Richard Nixon (2):
So, still striving for mysticism and analogy, I wrote the last
words and came up with the 'much water has coursed under the gate'
bit. So there it is. Couple of photostats also enclosed. Please
give one to the faithful Rose Mary, and thanks.
I read the piece in TIME on our valiant Julie and her fighting
defense of her father. What a gal! And why not? With her in-
heritance assets, she's a chip off the old two blocks.
Thanks for your recent note. It always warms my heart when I
look in the mail and see the magical "White House" on the envelope.
Also got a lovely note from the lovely Rosie, which Bebe calls her
(in talking to me when we were at the Mothers Day worship service),
so I guess I can.) I know the Nixon family, which includes Rose
Mary, I know, I know, longer than Mr. Rebozo!
Rose Mary is another dream, like you, Tricia and Julie. Gotta
meet that gal some time! Missed her, stupidly (my fault) at that
big fabulous Irish Night, the occasion of the announcement of
Tricia's engagement to the other Fast Eddie, my long-time nick-
name in the office, and your birthday. What a night! Ethel and
I will never, never forget it. Looked for her again when you were
kind enough to invite us back on Mothers Day, but good old Bebe
told me she was not present, but had gone home to "see her mother."
Good girl.
Pat, darlin', I think you have to invite me - again! - to 1600
Pennsylvania Avenue for some kind of function at which Rose Mary
will be present. I've met 'em all, including crazy Martha, whom
I advised The President to 'bounce' a long time ago. I gotta
meet Rose Mary, and it won't be hard to chat for a couple of
minuges, once again, with the greatest President of this century
and the greatest First Lady of any century since the foundation of
the republic.
Keep punching, kid. The Champ, too. Tell the Old Man that, des-
pite any of the slanted polls (and when will they investigate them?)
the great majority of Americans are still 100% (not McGovern's
1,000% 'behind' poor Eagleton) behind Richard Nixon. I talk to
people all the time and most of them say "Watergate is a crock of
" And "let's get on with it. Let's let Nixon do the job we
overwhelmingly elected him to. He's the best we have." I say
to them, "Yea, verily, the whole Ervin Show is holding up the
award of The Nobel Peace Prize to a man who has earned it. In
spades."
My 'letter' has been circulated, by use of the office Xerox, to
many other people, personal friends, who think Norb Kearns is
always right, and who re-circulate my Nixon Opuses, and to Bill
Buckley, who "admires" me, John Lofton, Alsop (with whom I have
had correspondence), Lt. Governor Malcolm Wilson (N.Y.), with
whom I have also had a nice correspondence over the years, my
State Senator and personal lawyer, John Santucci (a Dem. and
very PRO-Nixonite,, various priests in the Jesuit and Passionist
orders, a fine old teaching nun I know, who taught my three chil-
dren in their eighth-grades of elementary school, many others.
Mrs. Richard Nixon (3):
That's about it, dolly.
I will also enclose a column by the veteran Catholic writer,
Father Dan Lyons, which you and The Preisident shoul d find
interesting. (I'm a lousey typist, not like Rose Mary!)
I know you and R.N. also enjoyed the copy of my brother Leo's
letter to me, about 'crosses'. Good old Leo, now approaching
74, and the paterfamilias of my family, is, of course, the one
who first 'tipped' me, back in the Forties, "to keep your eye
on a red-hot American named Nixon, running for Congress out in
California. This guy is going to go far.'
How far can you go? To The White House, to Moscow, to Peking.
And Mount Rushmore.
All my love to all of you.
Faithfully,
Nort.
Norb.
