We all feel very proud of you here in this vicinity. I am also taking the liberty to enclose a copy of a letter I wrote to the Honorable Frank J. Lausche and his nice reply. He is thought so well of in our State that I think it would be a credit to our party for President-e elect Nixon to appoint him to some worthwhile position. What I personally would like to see is to replace Warren of the Supreme Court. Sincerely yours, Walle Newkirk Wade Newkirk 421 W. Ely Street Alliance, Ohio 44601 July 16, 1968 Honorable Frank J. Lausche 1900 E. 30th Street Cleveland, Ohio 44114 Dear Mr. Lausche: Mrs. Newkirk and I along with both Democrat and Republican fridends were sadden by your defeat. I shall never forget your years of service both as a Senator and Governor of Ohio, and am thankful for the fine judgment and sincerity of purpose reflected in your fine voting record. I have a number of them and some fine letters from you in my files. We both wish you a very pleasant future. Sincerely yours, Wade Newkirk FRANK J. LAUSCHE July 19, 1968 Mr. Wade Newkirk 421 W. Ely Alliance, Ohio 44601 Dear Mr. Newkirk: I deeply apprecaite your letter of July 16th in which you express your disappointment about the defeat which I suffered in the Ohio Democratic Primary of May 7th. White I, of course, am disappointed about the results of the Primary, I am not distressed. I did the best I could under the heavily adverse circumstances which faced me. In a political contest either victory or defeat lies within the soul of the candidate; it is not precipitated upon him from the outside. If within the heart one feels in the right, there can be no defeat. Within myself I feel to have been the victor because I know that I did not sacrifice my deep convictions about what was best for the country solely for the purpose of gaining popular support and votes. I will always be grateful to you and Mrs. Newkirk for the great strength which you have given me in reaffirming your confidence that in whatever I did as a Senator in the United States Congress was in the best interest of the citizenry and security of our country. With kindest personal regards and best wishes, I remain Sincerely yours, FJL:cmj Frank J.

It expresses the collected thinking of a considerable number of people throughout the United States, in which Mr. Nixon has said he is specifically interested. Thank you very much for whatever help you may be able to give us. Best wishes to you and your entire staff for a very promising four years ahead.

Vice Pres., National Audubon Society Burroughs Nature Club 11-22 KANSAS CITY'S OWN November 11, 1968 The Honorable Richard M. Nixon President-Elect of the United States Pierre Hotel New York City Dear Mr. Nixon: Please accept my heartiest congratulations on your recent victory. Be assured that the Middle-west is united behind you, and we are exceedingly sympathetic with your gigantic task in guiding this great country of ours toward unification and in the peaceful direction which it BO richly deserves. All good wishes also, to your very attractive family who will indeed grace the White House. We take great pride in their roles as official representatives of the American people for the next four years. I have asked Miss Rose Mary Woods, your executive secretary, to call your person- al attention to the following: A superb film on Conservation, entitled LAND THAT I LOVE, was shown to a very en- thusiastic audience of a thousand people in this city last week. This film, sponsored by our organization through the National Audubon Society, of which we are an affiliate, was presented by Mr. John Taft of Ojai, California. He is a young man of great charm withan engaging personality, and incidentally a graduate of Whittier College. He had made his first full length wildlife film at the tender age of 16; and although he is now only 34 years old, he has already amassed a great wealth of experience in the field of Natural Science, particularly in Conservation. It is the general consensus in this area that this film, narrated by Mr. Taft, is the epitome of what Conservation means to the future of our country. Furthermore, it is high on the recommended list of the National Audubon Society for the stimulation of in- terest in Conservation. A great many people are looking forward to your cabinet appointments, and we are, of course, most eagerly awaiting your appointment to the post of Secretary of the Inter- ior. In fact, Mr. Udall has expressed a desire to see this picture. Therefore, we trust it would be in order to have this film shown at the White House to those interested in your new appointment of Secretary of the Interior. It is widely recognized that Mr. Udall has given eight years of excellent Conservation, and it is our fervent desire that he consider continuing in that post for the next four years. Thank you very much for your serious consideration of this matter. Again, best wish- es to you for a bright future with an honorable peace for America.

QUIRK AREA CODE 209 268-6238 November 15, 1968 Dear Rose, Forgive me for addressing this letter to your apartment address, but I'm not quite sure where you are "officing" at the moment. In talking to Alan Greenspan and Martin Anderson, among others, I find that help is needed in connection with the take-over of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). I am most willing to lend a hand in getting things started off on the right track. If it means being in New York or Washington, I will gladly make myself available. I want so much for the Nixon Administration to succeed. I guess you would say my special field is housing and urban development. A1 Cole and I ran the Housing and Home Finance Agency (predecessor to HUD) during the Eisenhower Administra- tion. Since leaving Washington to return to private business, I have been back on an average of about once a month working with HUD personnel on various projects, so I have kept current on its operations. Incidentally, Cole is living in Washington and would be an excellent resource. There are very few Republicans in the field and there are even fewer who RN would care to be with in a lifeboat on the open sea. Stay healthy. You are photographing well. Geene sends her best.

NIXON 20 BROAD STREET NEW YORK, NEW YORK February 14, 1967 Dear Mr. Flick: This is just a belated note of thanks for the viewing equipment and for the complete set of Two Worlds. I am sure that the entire set justifies the high praise that it has re- ceived from so many prominent Americans. I am particularly impressed with the simple but eloquent discussion of the origins of the American Constitution. I should think that the showing of your slides to millions of Americans would stir a healthy debate on how well this nation has followed the wise guiding precepts agreed upon by the men at Philadelphia. The greater the number of people who view your presentations, the greater should be the incentive to discuss these issues which are after all among the most important of our times.

I am dropping you this note to assure you that your letter has not been sitting on my desk all of this time. We made a xerox copy for my use and immediately forwarded your letter through the President-Elect to the people who are processing all of the applications and requests we are now receiving from people who want to participate in the Nixon Administration.

Lawrence Admiralty House Bay View Saco Maine 04072 October 30, 1968 Dear Rose Mary: Brace yourself! VICTORY is yours! GRRREAAT! "HOW SWEET IT IS." We are so happy for you for you too have earned the glory at the foot of the rainbow. What an interesting life you have had up to now! What a glorious life you have ahead! Just wonderful. The President Elect, "The Boss" is indeed a very great man, however as time passes his greatness will bloom and flower in many ways never before experienced. To be associated with him is indeed an honor and also & very exceptional responsibility. I have written the inclosed letter to him in the hope I can be of real service and help to him. I have been informed Mr. John Mitchell, handles all matters of this nature, however as you know we are not known to each other and of course he has never heard of me. On the other hand Mr. Nixon, has known me quite well over most of his public life. If you can see that he gets my letter at just the right time I believe it could be mutually helpful. Anyway I shall deeply appreciate it bacause I am confident I can help him in this tremendous undertaking. Perhaps he will think so too. Please read my letter yourself and use your very excellent judgment when to give it to him. Thank you so much for your many courtesies and good cheer. Also please thank Miss Kilgallon. Tomorrow is Halloween so we have to get a couple of ghosts ready to Trick or Treat. How about that! With all the best from all of us and hoping so much to see you soon we say again, CHEERSfnVIOTORY Harold A. L. Lawrence Admiralty House Bay View Saco Maine copy 04072 P. 71/22/68 October 30, 1968 The Honorable Richard M. Nixon P. 0. Box 1968 Times Square Station New York, N. Y. 10036 Dear Mr. President: Congratulations! Victory is yours. Your excellent campaign not only assures triumph but it will be of great help in your task of building a unified country. Now more than anyone you know of the heavy responsibilities soon to rest upon you. In mind and heart, spirit and inspiration, knowledge and experience, you possess the courage to make the decisions required of great leadership during these times. Of course you cannot carry this magnificent challenge of American and World leadership by yourself. You will need strong, loyal, able men and women to work with you and in whom you have complete confidence and trust. Certainly you are the best qualified to know and appraise the strength of high character, ability, experience and loyalty you must have to help you build one of the most brilliant Presidential Administrations in the history of our country. There are many Republicans, many friends you have known well over the years who are anxious to help you. I hope you will consider me in this group. Since early in 1947 when Speaker "Joe" Martin introduced me to you in the House Dining Room, I have greatly admired your work and accomplishments. You had just defeated the rapid fire Democratic orator from California, "Jerry Voorhis, which achievement many considered next to impossible, so I was very anxious to meet you. Your victory then gave the Republican Party and particularly the Republicans in the House quite a shot of life and hope. Four years later when you were assembling your staff as the newly elected Senator of California, Miss Rose Mary Woods, an exceptionally fine young lady who had worked with me in the Navy Department in the early part of the war, honored me by asking my advice about accepting a job in your office. I advised her to accept, that to work with you was indeed a great opportunity, that the working hours might be all hours, that the work would be extremely interesting, inspiring and highly rewarding. Now you have with you not only the finest but the most loyal Private Secretary in the United States. Briefly with "Stub" Cole and Katharine St. George, I talked with you on the speaker's platform in Convention Hall in Chicago in 1952, shortly after you had delivered your Acceptance Speech for nomination as the candidate for Vice-President. At this time I thought you would certainly succeed General Eisenhower as President of the United States. I believe you should have for I strongly believe you won in 1960. In the Stassen "Dump Nixon" effort prior to the convention in 1956, I wrote the scorching letter which a number of prominent Republican leaders of Congress signed and sent to Stassen, in which he was informed he was not speaking for any of them, or for any Republican group but that he was only speaking for himself. Being a long time friend of Chris Herter I asked him to scuttle Stassen's stupid camouflage plan of using Herter, in the hope of forcing Nixon off the ticket, causing an open Convention for the Vice-Presidential nomination and thereby through some sinister maneuver succeed in getting his (Stassen's) own name placed in nomination. I told Herter, Stassen could cause him great injury in the Republican Party. Chris. agreed with me and said, "Hal, don't worry, I shan't have anything to do with Stassen's scheme.' II In the 1960 Campaign I made every contribution in every way I could and I shall believe always you achieved victory. After an extended trip through the mid-west in 1964, I came to the conclusion neither Senator Goldwater nor Governor Rockefeller could win the election. I thought you could win. You were the overwhelming choice of the many I talked with, SO I urged you to seek the Party's nomination. Unselfishly you stepped aside and instead of carrying the ball you became a very effective "blocking back." But for you the opposition would have scored many more touchdowns. Now in 1968 the American people have again turned to you and given you their precious trust, the command over their destiny, their confidence that you will build a safer, stronger, more peaceful America. You are now the leader of free people everywhere. In this magnificent undertaking, in this grand crusade to build a better America, to achieve a new national unity and purpose, to inspire and strengthen and widen freedom and to create a world of peace and cooperation - in this great New Day of a New Era, I would like to continue on your team and be included in your starting lineup. What position can I play in order to help you the most? As a suggestion I believe my knowledge and experience could best serve you as Secretary of the Navy. Here are the reasons: 1 - My long service in the Navy during which I was promoted through the ranks to permanent Captain and temporary Rear Admiral. 2 - My broad experience in the administration and the operations of the Navy. 3 - My work with the Royal Navy as U. S. Naval Liaison to the Admiralty and the First Sea Lord. 4 - My work with Secretary Forrestal in the reorganization of the Navy. 5 - I wrote the amendments to the National Security Act of 1947, which maintained Naval Aviation and the Marine Corps within 5 - the Navy. With the help of "Stub" Cole I personally maneuvered these amendments through the House and Senate and Conference Committee until they were enacted by the Congress and signed into law by the President. (Truman) As soon as this was accomplished Admiral Sherman called me to his home in Washington and exclaimed before a group of high ranking officers celebrating, "Hal, you have just saved the Marine Corps and the United States Navy. Let's have some toasts." One by one I was thanked by the ranking officers present. The next morning Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal called me to his office and with Admiral Nimitz, the Chief of Naval Operations present said to me, "Captain Lawrence you deserve a "WellDone." No naval man in these times has done such a significant and important job such as you have just accomplished. I am grateful and so are many of the ranking men in the Navy and Marine Corps. I approved of your amendments although I was in no position to help you. Your getting them into the legislation and then enacted by both the House and Senate and signed by the President into law, without any help from the Navy Department, in fact official opposition, will long stand as an outstanding achievement not only for the Navy but also for the future defense of our country. It is my purpose within a short time to present to you in public an adequate award and have this statemnet and the award citation made a. part of your record.' Admiral Nimitz then said to me, "Captain you have my highest respect and grateful thanks for this accomplishment. This achievement called for discretion and prudence. It required steadfast courage and exceptional skill. I am extremely grateful." 6 - I formulated and initiated for Secretary Forestal, the construction program for twenty new super-carriers. I worked with Congress in obtaining authorization approval and from time to time the appropriations for a number of the super-carriers in this program, including the first nuclear powered carrier, The Enterprise. 7 - Appointed by Secretary Forrestal, a member of the joint committee, to draw up the specific military missions of each of the military services, including the Marine Corps as authorized by the National Security Act of 1947. 8 - Worked with members of the Congress for the enactment of appropriations to finance the first Polaris Program formulated by Admiral W. F. Raborn. 9 - Assigned by Secretary Forrestal, to have cancelled funds for specific classified purposes in the naval budget, replaced by Congress without disclosing in any public way the program use of the funds. One item was for Twenty million dollars. The second item was for fifty million dollars. This assignment was unofficially accomplished. (No official of the Navy Department could undertake this task without becoming in controversy with the Bureau of the Budget over the matter of disclosure of highly classified plans.) 10 - Administrative Assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations. 11 - Congressional Advisor to the Chief of Naval Operations. 12 - Congress. I have over twenty-five years of experience in working with and for the Congress 13 - Legal. I was assigned as the Chief, Naval Legal Assistant to Mr. Justice Jackson, Chief U. S. Prosecutor, Nuremberg Trials of High Ranking German Officials. This work consisted mainly of assembling the evidence for the prosecution of Grossadmiral Karl Doenitz and Grossadmiral Erich Raeder. President, General Courts Martial, U. S. Navy. Chief, Officer Review Board, General Courts Martial. 14 - Education. Universities, fifteen years. (University of Michigan, Harvard University, Cambridge University, The London School of Economics.) 15 - Endorsements. If these are desired they can be obtained. Without question there are many Republicans capable of doing a satisfactory job as Secretary of the Navy. A satisfactory Job however is not good enough for the Nixon Administration. The Navy leadership must be outstanding to inspire top efficiency and regain high respect for the Service and for America throughout the world. The Secretary of the Navy must be able to advise and assist the Commander-in-Chief in every way needed. To do this the Secretary should possess broad general experience, knowledge of naval administration, naval operationsend naval organization; and must also have the ability to inspire men to do a better job. He must know Congress and how to work with Congress. Surely a thorough working knowledge of the Congress could at times be of great help to President Nixon. Possessing these qualifications I am confident I can restore the honor and respect of the United States Navy everywhere in the world. I can play well this position in your opening lineup. This has been a long campaign for you and Mrs Nixon. Together, you have captured America. This marvelous effort of yours has required physical strength, courage, skill and remarkable talent. Your outstanding victory not only has been earned but it is magnificently deserved. You have touched the hearts of the people and inspired within them hope. With my best regards to you and Mrs Nixon and the hope you will be able to manage some well earned rest, I remain Loyally and respectfully yours, Harold A.

Nixon Headquarters Hotel Pierre 5th Avenue -Manhatten New York, N.Y. Dear Miss Woods: I am enclosing a clipping from the local newspaper that ran the day after the election, which I thought might be of some interest to Dick. A certain amount of poetic license or embroidery has been used in the article but I don't think it will hurt Dick in this area. I got a particular kick out of the paragraph that reads, "a friendship that hasn't been used by either for personal gain". Please convey to Dick my congratulations and best wishes. Now for some unsolicited advice, which I am sure is worth just exactly what it cost. If he feels that Alabama should be repre- sented in his appointments, he might consider as exceptionally well qualified Winton (Red) Blount, who is currently President of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce. It was my privilege to intro- duce both Red Blount and Jim Martin to Dick at the Washington Hotel at the beginning of his previous campaign. He knows Jim Martin's qualifications, as well as those of John Grenier. Both of these men are exceptionally capable; Jim in public relations and John in organization. There is another man, a Democrat, who gave up his seat in the House of Representatives to run for Senator and was defeated, who is eminently qualified. Armistead Seldon had a voting record that looked much more like a Republican than a Democrat and is sound. In spite of the fact that this whole area went strongly for Wallace, there is a sense of relief on Dick's election and I believe that a southern coalition of conservatives can be effectively formed to give him a working majority in the House. I can't help but marvel at the comparison of your White House headquarters to be with the offices where I first met you, under the stairs in the Capitol. Our prayers and best wishes go with you and Dick and his wonderful family. A. Bob R.

The only thing I have run across which comes close to this is a bill calling for the establishment of an Academy of Criminal Justice and to provide for the establishment of such other Academies of Criminal Justice as the Congress may hereafter authorize. This bill was introduced by Congressman Spark M. Matsunaga (D-Hawaii) on February 16, 1967. To my knowledge, no congressional action was ever taken on this. I think this is a very worthwhile suggestion and, of course, there would have to be numerous details worked out. As far as I can see, it would be practical to have the local governments pay the costs of sending the officers to the schools and the Federal Government could provide the instruction and facilities, especially when and if the Safe Streets and Crime Control Bill ever becomes law. If I can help you further on this, please let me know. Sincerely yours, Quinn Tamm Executive Director U.S. POSTAGE The Patrint ORK 6c NOV 19 PM The Evening News 1968 PA.

We take great pride\nin their roles as official representatives of the American people for the next four\nyears.\nI have asked Miss Rose Mary Woods, your executive secretary, to call your person-\nal attention to the following:\nA superb film on Conservation, entitled LAND THAT I LOVE, was shown to a very en-\nthusiastic audience of a thousand people in this city last week. This film, sponsored\nby our organization through the National Audubon Society, of which we are an affiliate,\nwas presented by Mr. John Taft of Ojai, California. He is a young man of great charm\nwithan engaging personality, and incidentally a graduate of Whittier College. He had\nmade his first full length wildlife film at the tender age of 16; and although he is now\nonly 34 years old, he has already amassed a great wealth of experience in the field of\nNatural Science, particularly in Conservation.\nIt is the general consensus in this area that this film, narrated by Mr. Taft, is\nthe epitome of what Conservation means to the future of our country. Furthermore, it is\nhigh on the recommended list of the National Audubon Society for the stimulation of in-\nterest in Conservation.\nA great many people are looking forward to your cabinet appointments, and we are,\nof course, most eagerly awaiting your appointment to the post of Secretary of the Inter-\nior. In fact, Mr. Udall has expressed a desire to see this picture. Therefore, we trust\nit would be in order to have this film shown at the White House to those interested in\nyour new appointment of Secretary of the Interior. It is widely recognized that Mr. Udall\nhas given eight years of excellent Conservation, and it is our fervent desire that he\nconsider continuing in that post for the next four years.\nThank you very much for your serious consideration of this matter. Again, best wish-\nes to you for a bright future with an honorable peace for America.\nRespectfully yours,\nJosephine Isenberger\nMrs. Robert Isenberger, President\nJKI:ko\nBurroughs Nature Club,\nCC: Mr. Chas.

What a glorious life you have ahead! Just\nwonderful.\nThe President Elect, \"The Boss\" is indeed a very great man,\nhowever as time passes his greatness will bloom and flower in many\nways never before experienced. To be associated with him is indeed\nan honor and also & very exceptional responsibility.\nI have written the inclosed letter to him in the hope I can be\nof real service and help to him. I have been informed Mr. John Mitchell,\nhandles all matters of this nature, however as you know we are not known\nto each other and of course he has never heard of me.\nOn the other hand Mr. Nixon, has known me quite well over most\nof his public life. If you can see that he gets my letter at just the\nright time I believe it could be mutually helpful. Anyway I shall\ndeeply appreciate it bacause I am confident I can help him in this\ntremendous undertaking. Perhaps he will think so too. Please read my\nletter yourself and use your very excellent judgment when to give it\nto him.\nThank you so much for your many courtesies and good cheer.\nAlso please thank Miss Kilgallon.\nTomorrow is Halloween so we have to get a couple of ghosts\nready to Trick or Treat.

Y. 10036\nDear Mr. President:\nCongratulations! Victory is yours. Your excellent\ncampaign not only assures triumph but it will be of great help in your task\nof building a unified country. Now more than anyone you know of the\nheavy responsibilities soon to rest upon you. In mind and heart, spirit\nand inspiration, knowledge and experience, you possess the courage to make\nthe decisions required of great leadership during these times.\nOf course you cannot carry this magnificent challenge of\nAmerican and World leadership by yourself. You will need strong, loyal,\nable men and women to work with you and in whom you have complete confidence\nand trust. Certainly you are the best qualified to know and appraise\nthe strength of high character, ability, experience and loyalty you must\nhave to help you build one of the most brilliant Presidential Administrations\nin the history of our country. There are many Republicans, many friends\nyou have known well over the years who are anxious to help you. I hope\nyou will consider me in this group.\nSince early in 1947 when Speaker \"Joe\" Martin introduced\nme to you in the House Dining Room, I have greatly admired your work and\naccomplishments. You had just defeated the rapid fire Democratic orator\nfrom California, \"Jerry Voorhis, which achievement many considered next to\nimpossible, so I was very anxious to meet you. Your victory then gave the\nRepublican Party and particularly the Republicans in the House quite a shot\nof life and hope.\nFour years later when you were assembling your staff as\nthe newly elected Senator of California, Miss Rose Mary Woods, an exceptionally\nfine young lady who had worked with me in the Navy Department in the early\npart of the war, honored me by asking my advice about accepting a job in\nyour office. I advised her to accept, that to work with you was indeed a\ngreat opportunity, that the working hours might be all hours, that the work\nwould be extremely interesting, inspiring and highly rewarding. Now you\nhave with you not only the finest but the most loyal Private Secretary in\nthe United States.\nBriefly with \"Stub\" Cole and Katharine St. George, I talked\nwith you on the speaker's platform in Convention Hall in Chicago in 1952,\nshortly after you had delivered your Acceptance Speech for nomination as\nthe candidate for Vice-President. At this time I thought you would certainly\nsucceed General Eisenhower as President of the United States. I believe\nyou should have for I strongly believe you won in 1960.\nIn the Stassen \"Dump Nixon\" effort prior to the convention in\n1956, I wrote the scorching letter which a number of prominent Republican\nleaders of Congress signed and sent to Stassen, in which he was informed\nhe was not speaking for any of them, or for any Republican group but that\nhe was only speaking for himself. Being a long time friend of Chris Herter\nI asked him to scuttle Stassen's stupid camouflage plan of using Herter,\nin the hope of forcing Nixon off the ticket, causing an open Convention for\nthe Vice-Presidential nomination and thereby through some sinister maneuver\nsucceed in getting his (Stassen's) own name placed in nomination. I told\nHerter, Stassen could cause him great injury in the Republican Party.\nChris. agreed with me and said, \"Hal, don't worry, I shan't have anything\nto do with Stassen's scheme.' II\nIn the 1960 Campaign I made every contribution in every way\nI could and I shall believe always you achieved victory. After an extended\ntrip through the mid-west in 1964, I came to the conclusion neither Senator\nGoldwater nor Governor Rockefeller could win the election. I thought you\ncould win. You were the overwhelming choice of the many I talked with, SO\nI urged you to seek the Party's nomination. Unselfishly you stepped aside\nand instead of carrying the ball you became a very effective \"blocking back.\"\nBut for you the opposition would have scored many more touchdowns. Now in\n1968 the American people have again turned to you and given you their precious\ntrust, the command over their destiny, their confidence that you will build\na safer, stronger, more peaceful America. You are now the leader of free\npeople everywhere.\nIn this magnificent undertaking, in this grand crusade to\nbuild a better America, to achieve a new national unity and purpose, to\ninspire and strengthen and widen freedom and to create a world of peace\nand cooperation - in this great New Day of a New Era, I would like to\ncontinue on your team and be included in your starting lineup. What position\ncan I play in order to help you the most? As a suggestion I believe my\nknowledge and experience could best serve you as Secretary of the Navy.\nHere are the reasons:\n1 - My long service in the Navy during which I was promoted through\nthe ranks to permanent Captain and temporary Rear Admiral.\n2 - My broad experience in the administration and the operations\nof the Navy.\n3 - My work with the Royal Navy as U. S. Naval Liaison to the\nAdmiralty and the First Sea Lord.\n4 - My work with Secretary Forrestal in the reorganization of the Navy.\n5 - I wrote the amendments to the National Security Act of 1947,\nwhich maintained Naval Aviation and the Marine Corps within\n5 - the Navy. With the help of \"Stub\" Cole I personally\nmaneuvered these amendments through the House and Senate\nand Conference Committee until they were enacted by the\nCongress and signed into law by the President. (Truman)\nAs soon as this was accomplished Admiral Sherman called\nme to his home in Washington and exclaimed before a group\nof high ranking officers celebrating, \"Hal, you have just\nsaved the Marine Corps and the United States Navy. Let's\nhave some toasts.\" One by one I was thanked by the ranking\nofficers present.\nThe next morning Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal\ncalled me to his office and with Admiral Nimitz, the Chief\nof Naval Operations present said to me, \"Captain Lawrence\nyou deserve a \"WellDone.\" No naval man in these times\nhas done such a significant and important job such as you\nhave just accomplished. I am grateful and so are many\nof the ranking men in the Navy and Marine Corps. I approved\nof your amendments although I was in no position to help\nyou. Your getting them into the legislation and then\nenacted by both the House and Senate and signed by the\nPresident into law, without any help from the Navy Department,\nin fact official opposition, will long stand as an\noutstanding achievement not only for the Navy but also for\nthe future defense of our country. It is my purpose\nwithin a short time to present to you in public an adequate\naward and have this statemnet and the award citation made\na. part of your record.'\nAdmiral Nimitz then said to me, \"Captain you have my\nhighest respect and grateful thanks for this accomplishment.\nThis achievement called for discretion and prudence.\nIt required steadfast courage and exceptional skill.\nI am extremely grateful.\"\n6 - I formulated and initiated for Secretary Forestal, the\nconstruction program for twenty new super-carriers.\nI worked with Congress in obtaining authorization approval\nand from time to time the appropriations for a number of\nthe super-carriers in this program, including the first\nnuclear powered carrier, The Enterprise.\n7 - Appointed by Secretary Forrestal, a member of the joint\ncommittee, to draw up the specific military missions of\neach of the military services, including the Marine Corps\nas authorized by the National Security Act of 1947.\n8 - Worked with members of the Congress for the enactment of\nappropriations to finance the first Polaris Program\nformulated by Admiral W. F. Raborn.\n9 - Assigned by Secretary Forrestal, to have cancelled funds\nfor specific classified purposes in the naval budget,\nreplaced by Congress without disclosing in any public\nway the program use of the funds. One item was for\nTwenty million dollars. The second item was for fifty\nmillion dollars. This assignment was unofficially\naccomplished. (No official of the Navy Department could\nundertake this task without becoming in controversy with\nthe Bureau of the Budget over the matter of disclosure\nof highly classified plans.)\n10 - Administrative Assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations.\n11 - Congressional Advisor to the Chief of Naval Operations.\n12 - Congress. I have over twenty-five years of experience\nin working with and for the Congress\n13 - Legal. I was assigned as the Chief, Naval Legal Assistant\nto Mr. Justice Jackson, Chief U. S. Prosecutor, Nuremberg\nTrials of High Ranking German Officials. This work\nconsisted mainly of assembling the evidence for the\nprosecution of Grossadmiral Karl Doenitz and Grossadmiral\nErich Raeder.\nPresident, General Courts Martial, U. S. Navy.\nChief, Officer Review Board, General Courts Martial.\n14 - Education. Universities, fifteen years. (University of\nMichigan, Harvard University, Cambridge University, The\nLondon School of Economics.)\n15 - Endorsements. If these are desired they can be obtained.\nWithout question there are many Republicans capable of doing a\nsatisfactory job as Secretary of the Navy. A satisfactory Job however is\nnot good enough for the Nixon Administration. The Navy leadership must be\noutstanding to inspire top efficiency and regain high respect for the Service\nand for America throughout the world. The Secretary of the Navy must be\nable to advise and assist the Commander-in-Chief in every way needed.\nTo do this the Secretary should possess broad general experience, knowledge\nof naval administration, naval operationsend naval organization; and must also\nhave the ability to inspire men to do a better job. He must know Congress\nand how to work with Congress. Surely a thorough working knowledge of the\nCongress could at times be of great help to President Nixon. Possessing\nthese qualifications I am confident I can restore the honor and respect of\nthe United States Navy everywhere in the world. I can play well this\nposition in your opening lineup.\nThis has been a long campaign for you and Mrs Nixon.\nTogether, you have captured America. This marvelous effort of yours\nhas required physical strength, courage, skill and remarkable talent.\nYour outstanding victory not only has been earned but it is magnificently\ndeserved. You have touched the hearts of the people and inspired\nwithin them hope.\nWith my best regards to you and Mrs Nixon and the hope\nyou will be able to manage some well earned rest, I remain\nLoyally and respectfully yours,\nHarold A.

Nixon Headquarters\nHotel Pierre\n5th Avenue -Manhatten\nNew York, N.Y.\nDear Miss Woods:\nI am enclosing a clipping from the local newspaper that ran the\nday after the election, which I thought might be of some interest\nto Dick. A certain amount of poetic license or embroidery has\nbeen used in the article but I don't think it will hurt Dick in\nthis area. I got a particular kick out of the paragraph that\nreads, \"a friendship that hasn't been used by either for personal\ngain\". Please convey to Dick my congratulations and best wishes.\nNow for some unsolicited advice, which I am sure is worth just\nexactly what it cost. If he feels that Alabama should be repre-\nsented in his appointments, he might consider as exceptionally\nwell qualified Winton (Red) Blount, who is currently President\nof the U. S. Chamber of Commerce. It was my privilege to intro-\nduce both Red Blount and Jim Martin to Dick at the Washington\nHotel at the beginning of his previous campaign. He knows Jim\nMartin's qualifications, as well as those of John Grenier. Both\nof these men are exceptionally capable; Jim in public relations\nand John in organization. There is another man, a Democrat, who\ngave up his seat in the House of Representatives to run for\nSenator and was defeated, who is eminently qualified. Armistead\nSeldon had a voting record that looked much more like a Republican\nthan a Democrat and is sound.\nIn spite of the fact that this whole area went strongly for Wallace,\nthere is a sense of relief on Dick's election and I believe that\na southern coalition of conservatives can be effectively formed\nto give him a working majority in the House. I can't help but\nmarvel at the comparison of your White House headquarters to be\nwith the offices where I first met you, under the stairs in the\nCapitol.

To my knowledge, no congressional action was ever\ntaken on this.\nI think this is a very worthwhile suggestion and, of\ncourse, there would have to be numerous details worked out.\nAs far as I can see, it would be practical to have the local\ngovernments pay the costs of sending the officers to the\nschools and the Federal Government could provide the\ninstruction and facilities, especially when and if the Safe\nStreets and Crime Control Bill ever becomes law.\nIf I can help you further on this, please let me know.\nSincerely yours,\nQuinn Tamm\nExecutive Director\nU.S. POSTAGE\nThe Patrint\nORK\n6c\nNOV 19\nPM\nThe Evening News\n1968\nPA.\nTHE\nUNITED\nSunday Patrint-Nems\nFRANKLIN D.ROOSEVELT\nO.
