Dear Mr. Aitken:
In view of the increasingly heavy demands of his legal
and political commitments, Mr. Nixon has asked that 1 reply
to your interesting and thoughtful letter concerning your desire
to assist his Campaign for Governer of California.
At the present time, the full structure of staff and volunteer
personnel for this effort has not been completely crystalised. After
the first of the year, however, and as the pace of the Campaign
quickens, he will certainly need and welcome the active support of
every interested California advecate. It is my suggestion, therefore,
that after you have returned home, you drop me a line in order that
I may be alerted to your availability.
In the meantime, you should know that Mr. Nixon was greatly
impressed by the generous tome of your letter, and that he deeply
appreciates your sincere expression of support.
Yours very truly,

PUBLIC RELATIONS DIVISION
Introduction
The principle task of Public Relations in a political ampaign is to translate the
personality, record, and philosophy of the candidate and his organization into terms
which will have the most favorable impact upon the voting public and, thereafter,
those
to disseminate that impressions as widely and as often as there are techniquies of
communication available to do so.
It logically follows, therefore, as the first objective of the political public
relations counselor, that the general state of mind of the voters must be ascertained
as clearly as possible, in order that subsequent Campaign activities may properly
answer
resolve their doubts, their needs, and give impetus to their legitimate hopes
for the future. Furthermore, the candidate and his organization must unerringly
reflect those qualities which are most likely to inspire the desired public confidence.
There is nothing in this requirement, however, which suggests that either the
candidate or his public relations program must compromise basic convictions or
waiver uncertainly on the brink of a changing public ideological climate. Always
there must be a realistic awareness of the validity of Edmund Burke's theory that
"Your Representative in government owes you not his industry alone, but his judgement;
and he betrays instead of serving if he macrifices it to your opinion."
Political Public Relations, then, serves a two-pronged function: It interprets
the mood of the electorate for the candidate and his staff, and it interprets the
candidate to the electorate -- always, of course, in the most advantageous light.
Clearly, without an adequate public relations program, a political Campaign is
doomed to almost certain disaster. A superior candidate, who lacks an adequately
2. Draft
manned organization is really in no better position -- if, indeed, as good a position --
than a mediocre candidate whose Campaign is supported by well trained, stategically
deployed, firmly dedicated staff and volunteer workers. Likewise, both a superior
candidate and a well honed organization can make little significant impact at the polls
if their assets are unknown to the voters.
This, then, is the challenge of public relations in politics. It is more than pulse
taking. It is more than press releases and slick promotional "gimmicks". It is more
than colorful advertising slogans and brochures. Yet, in its total concept, it is all of
these things -- and more. To the candidate and his organisation, the public relations
dividion of a political Campaign is the cover on the book of the ideas, accomplishments,
and attitudes which the strategy of the Campaign seeks to enunciate. How well the public
relations program is able to package the total political'product", how energetically and
effectively it distributes this package to the salesmen in the field, and to the public in
general, will determine, to a large extent, the outcome of the Campaign.
Richard Nixon has often decried the fact that the Republican Party does the best
job, while the Democrats'talW'the best job. The public relations goal for his Campaign
of 1962 is to turn the brightest light available on the superior record of performance,
ideals, and objectives which the voters of California must understand and accept in their
quest for first-rate government for the Nation's first state.
SCOPE OF RESPONSIBILITY
In the Campaign to elect Richard Nixon Governor of California in 1962, all operations
and activities in the public relations field in its broadest sense, will fall under the
assignment of the public relations division.
These areas will include advertising, publicity, speaking engagements others
than those of the candidate, and the development and distribution of promotional hb//
Campaign materials. In addition, the public relations division will be charged with
for the
the responsibility bf servicing of all other Campaign divisions in these and related
areas.
Major policy and strategy for the public relations division will be formulated by
a voluntary Campaign public relations advisory committee whose membership will
reflect the interests of all phases of the Campaign operation, as well as competent
and recognised counselors in the various fields of public relations and communications
media which are represented in the Campaign effort.
The public relations division will be headed by a Public Relations Director, who,
in direct line of authority from the Campaign Manager, will bear ultimate responsibility
for all phases of the Division's activities.

This letter will confirm our earlier telephone conversa-

California State Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. Nixon is happy and honored to accept the invitation of
the San Jose Junior Chamber of Commerce to be guest speaker at
a benefit dinner on February 17, 1962.
Since his detailed schedule for the month of February is still
in the process of being developed, we would appreciate it if you
would make no other commitments for Mr. Nixon's time in
connection with this visit other than the dinner itself. It is quite
possible that he will have to be in San Jose for only a very brief
period of time and that the dinner itself may be his only activity
while there.
We will work out details and specific arrangements at a later
date but, in the meantime, I wanted you to have this confirmation
of acceptance of the appearance on February 17.
Best regards.

Dear Joe:
In Santa Maria Saturday, George Christopher indicated to me
that Edward E. Heavey, an Attorney at 68 Post Street in San Francisco,
Telephone: Garfield 1-4282, wanted to work for the Nixon cause this
year.
Christopher says that Heavey was the Democratic County Chairman
in San Francisco for Pat Brown and that he has changed his allegiance
now and wants to work actively in the Nixon Campaign. He is willing
to have his name used and also to put in some work on his own part.
He should be contacted and I suppose considered as our Democratic

Dear Miss Isherwood:
Thank you very much for your letter of November 24 and
your most generous offer to help in Richard Nixon's Campaign
for the Governorship of California.
Mr. Nixon, of course, does plan to make a major speech
on health care and your offer of information and a survey of
prominent men in this field would be most valuable.
I am taking the liberty of turning your letter over to our
task force group who will be working on this subject and you will
be hearing directly from them regarding proceeding with your
suggestion.
This will probably not be until shortly after the first of the
year. But, in the meantime, you might be getting together what
information you feel will be of most value and also working out an
outline of what you would propose to include in your survey.
Again, thanks very much for your most generous offer.
We certainly appreciate your interest and will look forward to
working with you.
Best regards.

Dear Mr. Hill:
Thank you very much for your letter of November 27 re-
garding plans for Humboldt County.
First, I can assure you that Mr. Nixon will be including
Humboldt County in his Campaign plans with a visit und@ ubtedly
scheduled prior to the primary. The itinerary is not anywhere
near completed at this point and will not be for some time. I
would appreciate some advice from you regarding possible activities
for Mr. Nixon in Humboldt County. If you could give us a run-down
on coming public events -- such as community or countywide dinners,
special celebrations, civic events, etc. -- from the period February
1 through June 1, we might be able to time a visit to coincide with the
more important of these. I would also appreciate your advice on
which might be most productive in terms of reaching the broadest
number of people in the area.
As to the question of a Fund Raising Dinner, I will have to defer
an answer for the time being, since we are currently working on a
number of plans for specific fund raising projects and this would have
to be considered in view of the overall picture as I am sure you recognize.
We will, however, keep your need in mind and see if there is some
way we can work out some help for you. I'll be looking forward to hearing
from you and, in the meantime, best regards.

Alice Leopold, who serves on our Steering Committee in
Northern California, feels that a great deal of progress can be
made in the area of organised labor by a project designed to get
labor and management plus top citizens together in every locality
to determine how people can get jobs -- in other words -- who
the unemployed are and what jobs they might fill.
She feels that unemployment is not a national concern but a local
one and this would give us an opportunity to show something being
done about it. Mrs. Leopold should be contacted regarding

R. Haldeman\nHRH/jb\nPUBLIC RELATIONS DIVISION\nIntroduction\nThe principle task of Public Relations in a political ampaign is to translate the\npersonality, record, and philosophy of the candidate and his organization into terms\nwhich will have the most favorable impact upon the voting public and, thereafter,\nthose\nto disseminate that impressions as widely and as often as there are techniquies of\ncommunication available to do so.\nIt logically follows, therefore, as the first objective of the political public\nrelations counselor, that the general state of mind of the voters must be ascertained\nas clearly as possible, in order that subsequent Campaign activities may properly\nanswer\nresolve their doubts, their needs, and give impetus to their legitimate hopes\nfor the future. Furthermore, the candidate and his organization must unerringly\nreflect those qualities which are most likely to inspire the desired public confidence.\nThere is nothing in this requirement, however, which suggests that either the\ncandidate or his public relations program must compromise basic convictions or\nwaiver uncertainly on the brink of a changing public ideological climate. Always\nthere must be a realistic awareness of the validity of Edmund Burke's theory that\n\"Your Representative in government owes you not his industry alone, but his judgement;\nand he betrays instead of serving if he macrifices it to your opinion.\"\nPolitical Public Relations, then, serves a two-pronged function: It interprets\nthe mood of the electorate for the candidate and his staff, and it interprets the\ncandidate to the electorate -- always, of course, in the most advantageous light.\nClearly, without an adequate public relations program, a political Campaign is\ndoomed to almost certain disaster. A superior candidate, who lacks an adequately\n2. Draft\nmanned organization is really in no better position -- if, indeed, as good a position --\nthan a mediocre candidate whose Campaign is supported by well trained, stategically\ndeployed, firmly dedicated staff and volunteer workers. Likewise, both a superior\ncandidate and a well honed organization can make little significant impact at the polls\nif their assets are unknown to the voters.\nThis, then, is the challenge of public relations in politics. It is more than pulse\ntaking. It is more than press releases and slick promotional \"gimmicks\". It is more\nthan colorful advertising slogans and brochures. Yet, in its total concept, it is all of\nthese things -- and more. To the candidate and his organisation, the public relations\ndividion of a political Campaign is the cover on the book of the ideas, accomplishments,\nand attitudes which the strategy of the Campaign seeks to enunciate. How well the public\nrelations program is able to package the total political'product\", how energetically and\neffectively it distributes this package to the salesmen in the field, and to the public in\ngeneral, will determine, to a large extent, the outcome of the Campaign.\nRichard Nixon has often decried the fact that the Republican Party does the best\njob, while the Democrats'talW'the best job. The public relations goal for his Campaign\nof 1962 is to turn the brightest light available on the superior record of performance,\nideals, and objectives which the voters of California must understand and accept in their\nquest for first-rate government for the Nation's first state.\nSCOPE OF RESPONSIBILITY\nIn the Campaign to elect Richard Nixon Governor of California in 1962, all operations\nand activities in the public relations field in its broadest sense, will fall under the\nassignment of the public relations division.\nThese areas will include advertising, publicity, speaking engagements others\nthan those of the candidate, and the development and distribution of promotional hb//\nCampaign materials. In addition, the public relations division will be charged with\nfor the\nthe responsibility bf servicing of all other Campaign divisions in these and related\nareas.\nMajor policy and strategy for the public relations division will be formulated by\na voluntary Campaign public relations advisory committee whose membership will\nreflect the interests of all phases of the Campaign operation, as well as competent\nand recognised counselors in the various fields of public relations and communications\nmedia which are represented in the Campaign effort.\nThe public relations division will be headed by a Public Relations Director, who,\nin direct line of authority from the Campaign Manager, will bear ultimate responsibility\nfor all phases of the Division's activities.\nDecember 4, 1961\nMr. Earl Behrens\nSan Francisco Chronicle\nSan Francisco, 19, California\nDear Siguire:\nThanks very much for your note of November 15\nand the attached editorial from the Chronicle.
