Water Speech June 29, 1962 Francis Amendment Dear Mr. Loy: I am sorry this reply to your letter has been delayed. You "Leadership-Gap" excerpts enclosures: were very thoughtful to take the time to write me as you did. Your various observations and suggestions are all pertinent and sound. We are well acquainted with the policy of The Bee. Our people do read and follow it carefully, and we certainly agree with your opinion expressed in this connection. I am happy to have your reaction to "Six Crises" and the popularity of this fine book speaks for itself. It has been xx widely acclaimed, but attacks from the opposition are of course to be expected. date In the thought you may have missed through lack of reporting in your area the many statements Dick Nixon was making in his speeches throughout the primary, I am taking the liberty of enclosing a number of our news releases and excerpts from his talks. Again our thanks for your letter. We do appreciate your fine help Area File - Fresno County File: Campaign - Misc. Corres. and support and hope you will continue to pass along any thoughts or suggestions you might have in connection with the campaign. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mr. Harvey W. Loy 1656 Pacific Avenue Fresno 5, California (Dictated by Mr. Haldeman but not read; signed in his absence) See no. Cal area X Ruth Watson 6-28-62 Bob Haldeman Dwight Ewing In answer to your question about Dwight Ewing, I had Rose Woods check his file with RN. The suggestion is to work around him rather than dumping him. He's not particularly close to RN. INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM Nixon for Governor Date: To: Bob Haldeman June 27, 1962 From: RMW med Subject: Dwight Ewing Distribution: I checked with RN concerning Dwight Ewing and he said "I do not think it is worth dumping him the thing to do is to work around him". June 27, 1962 Dear Mrs. Skinner: I am sorry a reply to your letter of June 7th has been so long delayed. With the wind-up schedule immediately following our primary election which was June 5th, we have a bit of catching up to do. Dick Nixon has asked me to thank you for your letter, and to answer you direct since campaign staffing responsibility falls under my office. Certainly we, or any organization, would be fortunate indeed to have your services. There are, however, two considerations which I'm afraid preclude our taking advantage of your offer. The first is the lack of funds to expand our staff beyond present limits, and the second factor, which I am sure you will understand, is that we are attempting to utilize people within the state rather than bring in out-of-state personnel. Mr. Nixon appreciated, as I do, your thoughtfulness in writing us. With very best wishes, Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mrs. Moretta H. Skinner 3974 Witham Lane Cincinnati, Ohio June 27, 1962 Dear Earl: Thanks very much for your letter of June 25th. You have pointed up a good possibility for using the Heyler editorial, and we'll certainly give it some further thought. I have noted that you and wife are interested in helping out in the months ahead. What are your thoughts in this connection? Do you have any specific area of activity in mind? I'd appreciate hearing from you, Earl. And thanks again for the time and thought you gave to the Heyler article. Our Public Relations Department will take a close look at this. Best regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mr. Earl Ebi Leo Burnett Company, Inc. 1777 North Vine Street Hollywood 28, California June 27, 1962 Dear Stan: Thanks very much for your wire inquiry regarding the TV Brown debate. Plans have not been finalized, and of course we will have no indication of how or when the debate programming will develop until after representatives of each candidate have met and worked out the details. We appreciate your interest in this, Stan, and are sorry we can't give you any definite information at this time. Best regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mr. Stanley J. Lerche Campaign Director, Alameda County 1759 Broadway Oakland, California Rose Woods and Loie Gaunt 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman In checking Democrats who are for us, RN says he has marked a number of incoming letters from Democrats as people to be contacted. I would like to have this information as quickly as possible. Many thanks. Herb Kalmbach 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Negro Organization As you know, Grant Reynolds had an appointment with RN Friday which apparently turned out very satisfactorily. After the meeting, Reynolds told me that he has found a man who is available to us with no pay - expenses only - who Reynolds considers the best P.R. man in the Negro community in California. His name is Bill Graham, office in Beverly Hills, phone - CR 6-1744 and WE 6-0343. He is associated with Wallace Investments, Inc. and United Housing Association. Grant says he would be ideal to coordinate and channel our activities within and into the Negro community. You and Cris Wright should get together with Graham immediately and determine how and when he can be used. You should also discuss with Cris and Graham the possibility of working with Dr. Hudson of the NAACP. Hudson is mad at Yorty because of Yorty's defense of Chief Parker. Reynolds talked to Hudson and told him the Negroes should register a strong protest against the Democrats' treatment of the Negro and indirectly against Yorty. He told Hudson the way to do this was to get them to vote Republican - especially for Governor - in the fall. This is obviously a little indirect, but could be very valuable if handled right. Charles Farrington, Jr. 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Harry Keaton tells me that John Cole at his law firm, Loeb & Loeb, is an excellent speaker and wants to work. June 20, 1962 Dear Valley: The Reverend Coefield's letter was received by Dick's office and they are acknowledging it direct. Unfortunately, there is a conflict involved. Dick is scheduled to speak to the American Legion's State Convention in Fresno on the 28th. However, if something can be worked out at a later date with this group, I am sure this will be done. Best regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mrs. Valley Knudsen 3034 Edgewick Road Glendale, California June 25, 1962 Dear Mr. Davies: The attached file was forwarded to me from our San Francisco office. It was my understanding that your offer of the Food Machinery airplane for Nixon campaign use was as a contribution to the campaign, and I wanted to check with you as to whether this is the case. Apparently the attached invoice in the amount of $213.36 was paid by our Northern California office since the billing was submitted to them and they were not familiar with our arrangement. We will, of course, be most happy to handle this in any manner you suggest. Kind regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mr. Paul Davies Food Machinery and Chemical Corporation P.O. Box 760 San Jose, California Bill Spencer 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman (CONFIDENTIAL) Dear Bill: I have your memos of June 14th to Loie Gaunt and Rose Woods regarding letters to Jim Halley and Ruth Watson and copies of the book to both. Just as you feel strongly that Alan Nichols' requests should be funneled to you, I must also ask that your requests be funneled to me rather than to Loie or to Rose. In this particular case, we are sending letters to all those who participated in the primary campaign, and I definitely feel it would be very inappropriate to take special action in the case of Ruth and Jim in spite of the fact I recognize their contribution was way beyond the call of duty. Also, we cannot use autographed copies of the book to reward volunteers. I am sure you will recognize it would get us into a completely untenable position. Sorry not to comply with these requests, but think you can understand our position. Best regards. June 25, 1962 Dear Mr. MacMurraugh: Mr. Nixon has asked that I follow-up on your letter of May 29th which was acknowledged by his office on June 2nd. I am sure you will understand that because the matter to which you refer has been placed before the trial board of the California Young Republicans, it would be extremely inappropriate for Mr. Nixon to comment or become involved in any way. Best wishes, and WIN WITH NIXON: H. R. Haldeman Mr. Kilburn MacMurraugh P. 0. Box 2866 Stanford, California June 25, 1962 Dear Senator Thompson: Howard Thelin has been kind enough to show me copies of his recent interchange with you. We certainly appreciate your comments. We need your support and it was heartening to learn you are interested in helping out in the months ahead. I am asking our Northern California Campaign Manager, Mr. Bill Spencer, to get in touch with you and discuss current status and projected planning for Santa Clara County. You may be sure anything you are free to do will mean much to us. Kindest regards and best wishes. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman The Honorable John F. Thompson 3103 Alum Rock Avenue San Jose 27, California June 25, 1962 Dear Bob: Dick told me about your note regarding the ADA film which your Committee plans to produce for use by candidates. I agree with you that a similar film on the CDC might be extremely effective out here. I would appreciate it very much if you would send me whatever format, script or plan you have for the film you are doing which we might use as guidance. Best regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Honorable Bob Wilson House Office Building Washington 25, D. C. Don Frey 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman RN is most anxious that a very complete and thorough analysis be made of the primary vote. His point is that we spend a lot of money on polls based on small samples, while here we have 100% accuracy with a sample of gigantic proportions. xx File: He is especially interested in all possible types of comparative analyses to be used as guide lines for strategy and schedule planning for the fall campaign. The total Republican turn-out, the Nixon vote vs. Shell vote, the Brown vote vs. the Anti-Brown vote, the relative strength of Nixon and Christopher, should all be analyzed by totals, counties and Assembly Districts. The evaluation of results should also be made against known date primary promotional activity, i.e. telethon areas vs. non- covered areas, billboard areas, TV spot areas etc; also, a very detailed special analysis should be made of the productivity RN memo file Research of the postcard mailing. This could be done by setting up a large number of matched pairs of Districts, taking each District - in which cards were mailed and matching it with a comparable District which did not receive the mailing. We should then evaluate Republican turn-out and Nixon vote in one area vs. the other. At this stage, it seems to me that efforts should be concentrated Vote Analysis on the statistical summary of all the above data rather than on attempts to interpret the significance of the total vote pattern as Griffin has been doing recently. I would appreciate your thoughts on the above together with some idea as to when it might be reasonable to expect results. RN 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Legal Aid appearance in San Francisco, August 2nd. Oscar Trippet is most anxious to chat with you on the telephone briefly about this meeting since he has some ideas he wishes to pass along to you. I strongly recommend this call be made. As you know, Trippet is a perennial key figure in the Democrats for Nixon organization, and we certainly want him in line this time. I would hope the call could be made before you leave for Denmark. Al Moscow and Sandy Quinn 6=25=62 Bob Haldeman RN wants immediately a complete analysis of all daily and weekly newspapers in California, indicating which did and which did not endorse mim. He intends to write letters to those who did endorse him, and possibly also to those who did not. Please be sure this list is complete and accurate, and get it to him as quickly as possible. Jerry Reynolds 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Murray Chotiner advises he has been handling a legal matter for Mr. Keith Kearney who is with the Internal Revenue Service. Kearney has a great deal of information on some suspected monkey business with the State Board of Drycleaners that arose from his attempt to get into the cleaning and dyeing business. Chotiner says Kearney is completely reliable and urges that we contact him. He is under the Hatch Act, so contact will have to be handled discreetly. His telephone number is RE 9-4711 Ext. 1984, and you should say that Murray Chotiner suggested we get in touch with him. Will you please follow up? Charles Farrington, Jr. 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Telethon Questions As soon as all envelopes are addressed for the thank-you card going to Telethon names, will you see that the questions are boxed and forwarded to Agnes Waldron at Research? In addition to those where addresses were supplied, there is another box in my office which contains questions where no address was provided. These should be included in the lot to go to Agnes. Agnes plans to run a rough profile on the questions mailed and phoned in to get a general tally of how they break down by general subject area. Al Moscow and Sandy Quinn 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Ronald Reagan and Walter Knott are both ready to make statements endorsing RN whenever we feel it would be helpful. RN wants these put out one by one in the near future. Will you please draft statements for each of them and let me see the drafts as quickly as possible? Herb Kalmbach 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Personnel Murray Chotiner strongly recommends the following personnel from the Wright campaign. He feels they did an outstanding job and would be very valuable to us if we need their type of help. Telephone Operator Wilma Jean Quintrell 240 S. Catalina DU 9-0892 $300.00 per month - Murray was most enthusiastic about her; said she was the best Switchboard Operator he has ever had on any campaign. Newspaper Gal Helen Stewart CL 6-8348 $600.00 per month - very good writer; formerly with Mirror; follows orders explicitly; completely calm and unruffled; very hard worker; good on radio spots and interviews. I think she might be excellent as publicist for the Valley Knudsen program and should be considered for this spot. Receptionist - Office Manager - Volunteer Coordinator Bunny Tanner PO 3-2608 $400.00 per month - Murray doesn't know if she would be available, but if she is, he recommends her very highly. She was excellent with volunteers and staff; worked 12 to 20 hours a day. Rose Mary Woods 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman cc: Sandy Quinn RN or Grant Reynolds may already have mentioned this, but Reynolds told RN he felt it very important that he establish a close relationship with James Flournoy, Negro Republican Candidate for the Board of Equalization in the 4th District. As a first step, an appointment should be set up as soon as possible for a brief meeting between RN and Flournoy, and we should be sure to have a picture taken at that time. Herb Kalmbach 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman One of our key people, either John, Charlie or Carol, should be put in charge immediately of accumulating all existing names of Democrats for Nixon. This means a complete review of green cards, pledge sheets and any other sources to pull out names, addresses and telephone numbers of every Democrat we can track down who is for us. The actual work can be done by volunteers, but it is essential that a top staff person be in charge and stay in touch with the activity until it is done. This should be completed by the end of the week, if at all possible. I have asked Rose and Loie to track down any Nixon mail from Democrats indicating their support, and this information will be added to the names we pull out. Please give this top priority and let me know to whom it has been assigned. Herb Kalmbach 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Irving Walker, a prominent attorney here in Los Angeles who is a Democrat, has told a good friend of ours he intends to vote Republican in the fall. He should be contacted to see if his name can be used, or if he would be willing to serve on a Committee. Alice Leopold 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman cc: Bill Spencer Your great friend, Grant Reynolds, had a session with RN on Friday which apparently came out very well. In spite of some of the problems that have existed, I think you will agree Reynolds has done us some good on this most recent trip -- and I am sure it would be better to have him working for us rather than against us. It is my understanding he will not be coming back to California until sometime in October, and then probably only for a day or so in Los Angeles. Reynolds points out that while you do have a Negro Policy Group in Northern California, you do not have a top campaign spot filled by a Negro up there. As you know, we have Cris Wright as Vice Chairman of the Southern California Campaign Organization. Reynolds strongly urges that George Vaughns be asked to take the top spot in Northern California. I merely pass this on as a recommendation from Reynolds with no comment from me. I do think, however, it is worth considering, and I know Vaughns is close to some of the members of your Policy Committee. June 25, 1962 Dear Miss Ressler: I was sorry to miss your telephone call, but appreciate your taking the time to write me about your continuing interest in the campaign. Was glad to learn you will be helping out with Mrs. Yeaman's program and certainly hope you will find it possible to remain active in this area. As far as our staff requirements are concerned, we do not anticipate adding to the present set-up in our Public Relations and News Bureau Departments. However, we will keep you in mind and should something develop here or elsewhere in which we feel you might have an interest, will get in touch with you immediately. Many thanks again for your interest, and best regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Sandra M. Ressler 4537 Varna Avenue Sherman Oaks, California June 25, 1962 Dear Mr. Feste: We did not use Volunteers for Nixon Clubs in the California primary campaign, nor do we plan to do so in the general election. We did, however, set up a statewide Nixon-for-Governor campaign organization with County Chairmen in all 58 counties, and Community Chairmen in each principal community. The communities then formed Nixon-for-Governor organizations which were in many ways similar to the Volunteer Clubs that we did use in the 1960 Presidential campaign. I am sending you under separate cover a bank copy of our Manual for Nixon Community Chairmen which I think you will find helpful. This : We correlated these Nixon organizations with the County Republican organization by first clearing the appointment of the Nixon Area Chairman with the Republican County Chairman. Once this appointment was cleared, we found that the two were usually able to work well together. We made it clear that the Nixon Chairman was to coordinate and cooperate with the Republican County Chairman, but that of necessity they would conduct separate organizational activities. We plan to follow the same pattern in the fall campaign. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to let me know. Also, please be sure to give Mark my very best regards. I remember him fondly from many wild nights in 1960. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mr. Charles A. Feste, Chairman Andrewa-for-Governor Clubs 403 First National Bank Building Fargo, North Dakota (Ribni) June 25, 1962 Dear Mrs. Reid: Thank you very much for your letter of June 6th. I am sorry this reply has been delayed, but had hoped I might be able to write you along more definite lines than is the case. We are still in the process of considering various programs and if I may, I would like to get in touch with you a little later on when I will be in a better position to discuss possible areas in which you might have an interest. Certainly your background is excellent, and we are most appreciative of your interest in and desire to work for the campaign organization. With kindest regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mrs. Betty Granger Reid 4219 Market Street San Diego 2, California per offers June 25, 1962 Dear Milt: Thanks for acquainting us with Mr. Johnson's interest in becoming active in the campaign. The fact that he does not require either salary or expense reimbursement certainly makes it an unusual case. When you receive his detailed brochure, I would like very much to take a look at it. It seems to me we could use his services productively. Best regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mr. Milton H. Esberg, Jr. 127 Montgomery Street San Francisco 4, California June 25, 1962 Dear Mrs. Frazier: Thank you very much for your letter of June 21st acquainting us with your past affiliations, and also your thoughts as to possible participation in the campaign. I have noted you may be coming south following your visit at Lake Tahoe July 2-14. If this is the case, I would suggest you telephone me upon your arrival here. We could arrange a time to meet and discuss this subject further. Again, thank you for your interest and kindest regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mrs. Clarence Frazier 2060 University Drive San Jose 28, California June 25, 1962 Dear Bob: I very much appreciated your letter of June 14th together with your observations on plans for the future. As to the specific points you raised: A. 24 Sheet Posters: X We are very much aware that there were some problems in placement of the posters and we will be very happy to have your group's thoughts on locations for the fall. I am sure you date realize these are bought on a package basis and there is only a limited possibility of shifting locations. We of course want to keep maximum pressure on the outdoor companies to make sure we get the best possible showings. The Brown billboard you mentioned is, I believe, a painted bulletin. As you know, the cost of File: Area File - Alameda County these runs from 10 to 20 times as much as the 24 Sheet posters, and for this reason we have not used them except in a couple of cases where bcc w/fax incom. ltr. to - Bill Spencer they have been donated. You might want to explore the possibility of getting some painted bulletin locations donated for the fall campaign. We do have artwork prepared which we can transmit to the outdoor company to be used in painting any locations you are able to obtain. B. Alameda County Negro Meeting: We will certainly try to work out a time in the itinerary for an appearance in Alameda County directed to the Negro population. We very definitely recognize and appreciate the importance of this group. Bob McKeen 2 June 25, 1962 C. Information from Mr. Richard L. Bower You mentioned that Mr. Bower had submitted some very important documents to be reviewed by our staff, but you did not indicate to whom they were sent. This information would be most helpful in checking this through. Please feel free at any time to shoot on any information you feel will be helpful or constructive. I would ask, however, that you be sure to send a carbon copy to Bill Spencer on anything you send us since I of course will have to rely on Bill to handle the day to day management for the campaign in Northern California. Finally, let me again express my thanks for the outstanding job you and your crew have been doing. We all recognize the tremendous up-hill fight you have in Alameda County, but are confident that the great effort being put forth there in this campaign will produce results. Best regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman Mr. Robert V. McKeen Alameda County Chairman 1759 Broadway Oakland 12, California Mr. Maurice Stans 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Dear Maury: The item in the "Insuranceflash" bulletin on Zenith Insurance Co. and unions' insurance activities is interesting and I have sent a copy to our Research people for follow up. The memo from Mr. Rees indicates that Mr. Al Howard has "tons" of information on this subject, and I have suggested to our Research people that he can be contacted through your office for additional material. Many thanks for bringing this to our attention. The bulletin is returned herewith. Research Department 6-25-62 Bob Haldeman Attached is fax copy of a paragraph from "Insuranceflash" which was forwarded to me by Mr. Maurice Stans. In the memo accompanying this bulletin directed to Mr. Stans by one of his staff people, the statement is made: "Al Howard gave this to me Al says if you are interested, he has tons of information on unions' insurance activities." I don't know who Al Howard is, but he could be reached through Mr. Stans' office. June 22, 1962 Dear Mr. Claussen: Thank you very much for your letter of June 21st. Certainly the congratulatory wire to Mr. Mahlon Munson X is the type of thing Mr. Nixon would like very much File: to do. We are, however, bound by policy in this connection. Since he is a candidate in the forthcoming election here, Dick has had to make a firm ruling that there can be no participation in meetings out of state. Since the tribute to Mr. Munson is directly date related to the annual conference of the Plywood Distributors Association, I'm afraid this would pre- clude a wire being directed to him by Mr. Nixon. I am sure this may be difficult for you to understand, and want to assure you that in cases like this, it is just as difficult for us to abide by the policy established. Yet, in fairness to the many other similar requests we have received and will continue to receive, there can be no deviation. With kind regards and best wishes.

I will briefly answer them herein by subject: Art Fletcher All of us agree with your evaluation of Art, and very definitely plan to continue working with him in the Civil Rights and Negre organisation areas. As you probably know, he is on a fact-finding trip East at the present time; we are of course looking forward to his report and the material he is able to develop. Joel Fisher Joel is not on my staff, and I appreciate your letting me know that he is representing himself erroneously. I will take steps to correct this. I would further appreciate it if you would check directly with Joel and tell him I was quite surprised to learn he was identifying himself as representing me, and maybe that will help too. University of California We will indeed seek your constructive thoughts on matters regarding the University. I agree we should not allow Dick to take any position involving the University without making sure it can be supported from every angle. - 2 . Don Yule and the State Committee I am sure by the time you receive this you will have discussed this matter in some detail with Ed Slevin and Joe Martin, and will be up to date on our current thinking and planning.

The Sacramento Scene Glad to hear this is under control. Keep up the good work. Legislative Squad I assure you we will not become involved in an inter- caucus squabble concerning leadership in January.

The case of the state employees which you bring up is important and certainly calls for follow-up. I am, therefore, establishing contact with Mr. Glen Baker along the lines you have suggested. I agree with you that a discussion with him is in order, and the points you have made are helpful. Many thanks, and best regards. Sincerely, H. R.

His name is Bill Graham, office in Beverly Hills,\nphone - CR 6-1744 and WE 6-0343. He is associated with\nWallace Investments, Inc. and United Housing Association.\nGrant says he would be ideal to coordinate and channel our\nactivities within and into the Negro community. You and Cris\nWright should get together with Graham immediately and determine\nhow and when he can be used.\nYou should also discuss with Cris and Graham the possibility of\nworking with Dr. Hudson of the NAACP. Hudson is mad at Yorty\nbecause of Yorty's defense of Chief Parker. Reynolds talked to\nHudson and told him the Negroes should register a strong protest\nagainst the Democrats' treatment of the Negro and indirectly\nagainst Yorty. He told Hudson the way to do this was to get them\nto vote Republican - especially for Governor - in the fall.\nThis is obviously a little indirect, but could be very valuable\nif handled right.\nCharles Farrington, Jr.\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nHarry Keaton tells me that John Cole\nat his law firm, Loeb & Loeb, is an excellent speaker\nand wants to work.\nJune 20, 1962\nDear Valley:\nThe Reverend Coefield's letter\nwas received by Dick's office and they are\nacknowledging it direct.\nUnfortunately, there is a conflict\ninvolved. Dick is scheduled to speak to the American\nLegion's State Convention in Fresno on the 28th.\nHowever, if something can be\nworked out at a later date with this group, I am\nsure this will be done.\nBest regards.\nSincerely,\nH.

I am sure you will recognize it would get us\ninto a completely untenable position.\nSorry not to comply with these requests, but think you can\nunderstand our position.\nBest regards.\nJune 25, 1962\nDear Mr. MacMurraugh:\nMr. Nixon has asked that I\nfollow-up on your letter of May 29th\nwhich was acknowledged by his office on\nJune 2nd.\nI am sure you will understand\nthat because the matter to which you refer\nhas been placed before the trial board of\nthe California Young Republicans, it would\nbe extremely inappropriate for Mr. Nixon\nto comment or become involved in any way.\nBest wishes, and\nWIN WITH NIXON:\nH.

C.\nDon Frey\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nRN is most anxious that a very complete and thorough analysis\nbe made of the primary vote. His point is that we spend a\nlot of money on polls based on small samples, while here we\nhave 100% accuracy with a sample of gigantic proportions.\nxx\nFile:\nHe is especially interested in all possible types of\ncomparative analyses to be used as guide lines for strategy\nand schedule planning for the fall campaign.\nThe total Republican turn-out, the Nixon vote vs. Shell vote,\nthe Brown vote vs. the Anti-Brown vote, the relative strength\nof Nixon and Christopher, should all be analyzed by totals,\ncounties and Assembly Districts.\nThe evaluation of results should also be made against known\ndate\nprimary promotional activity, i.e. telethon areas vs. non-\ncovered areas, billboard areas, TV spot areas etc; also, a very\ndetailed special analysis should be made of the productivity\nRN memo file\nResearch\nof the postcard mailing. This could be done by setting up a\nlarge number of matched pairs of Districts, taking each District\n-\nin which cards were mailed and matching it with a comparable\nDistrict which did not receive the mailing. We should then\nevaluate Republican turn-out and Nixon vote in one area vs. the\nother.\nAt this stage, it seems to me that efforts should be concentrated\nVote Analysis\non the statistical summary of all the above data rather than\non attempts to interpret the significance of the total vote\npattern as Griffin has been doing recently.\nI would appreciate your thoughts on the above together with some\nidea as to when it might be reasonable to expect results.\nRN\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nLegal Aid appearance in San Francisco, August 2nd.\nOscar Trippet is most anxious to chat with\nyou on the telephone briefly about this meeting\nsince he has some ideas he wishes to pass along to you.\nI strongly recommend this call be made.

He is under the Hatch Act, so\ncontact will have to be handled discreetly.\nHis telephone number is RE 9-4711 Ext. 1984, and you should\nsay that Murray Chotiner suggested we get in touch with\nhim.\nWill you please follow up?\nCharles Farrington, Jr.\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nTelethon Questions\nAs soon as all envelopes are addressed\nfor the thank-you card going to Telethon names, will\nyou see that the questions are boxed and forwarded to\nAgnes Waldron at Research?

These should be included in the lot to go to\nAgnes.\nAgnes plans to run a rough profile on the\nquestions mailed and phoned in to get a general tally of\nhow they break down by general subject area.\nAl Moscow and Sandy Quinn\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nRonald Reagan and Walter Knott are both ready to\nmake statements endorsing RN whenever we feel it would be\nhelpful.\nRN wants these put out one by one in the near future.\nWill you please draft statements for each of them\nand let me see the drafts as quickly as possible?\nHerb Kalmbach\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nPersonnel\nMurray Chotiner strongly recommends the following personnel\nfrom the Wright campaign. He feels they did an outstanding\njob and would be very valuable to us if we need their\ntype of help.\nTelephone Operator\nWilma Jean Quintrell\n240 S. Catalina\nDU 9-0892\n$300.00 per month\n- Murray was most enthusiastic about her; said\nshe was the best Switchboard Operator he has ever\nhad on any campaign.\nNewspaper Gal\nHelen Stewart\nCL 6-8348\n$600.00 per month\n- very good writer; formerly with Mirror; follows\norders explicitly; completely calm and unruffled;\nvery hard worker; good on radio spots and interviews.\nI think she might be excellent as publicist for the\nValley Knudsen program and should be considered for\nthis spot.\nReceptionist - Office Manager - Volunteer Coordinator\nBunny Tanner\nPO 3-2608\n$400.00 per month\n- Murray doesn't know if she would be available, but\nif she is, he recommends her very highly. She was\nexcellent with volunteers and staff; worked 12 to 20\nhours a day.\nRose Mary Woods\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\ncc: Sandy Quinn\nRN or Grant Reynolds may already have mentioned this, but\nReynolds told RN he felt it very important that he establish\na close relationship with James Flournoy, Negro Republican\nCandidate for the Board of Equalization in the 4th District.\nAs a first step, an appointment should be set up as soon\nas possible for a brief meeting between RN and Flournoy, and\nwe should be sure to have a picture taken at that time.\nHerb Kalmbach\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nOne of our key people, either John, Charlie or Carol,\nshould be put in charge immediately of accumulating\nall existing names of Democrats for Nixon.\nThis means a complete review of green cards, pledge\nsheets and any other sources to pull out names,\naddresses and telephone numbers of every Democrat we\ncan track down who is for us.\nThe actual work can be done by volunteers, but it is\nessential that a top staff person be in charge and stay\nin touch with the activity until it is done.\nThis should be completed by the end of the week, if at\nall possible.\nI have asked Rose and Loie to track down any Nixon mail\nfrom Democrats indicating their support, and this information\nwill be added to the names we pull out.\nPlease give this top priority and let me know to whom it\nhas been assigned.\nHerb Kalmbach\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nIrving Walker, a prominent attorney here in\nLos Angeles who is a Democrat, has told a good friend\nof ours he intends to vote Republican in the fall.\nHe should be contacted to see if his name can be\nused, or if he would be willing to serve on a Committee.\nAlice Leopold\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\ncc: Bill Spencer\nYour great friend, Grant Reynolds, had a session with\nRN on Friday which apparently came out very well.\nIn spite of some of the problems that have existed, I\nthink you will agree Reynolds has done us some good\non this most recent trip -- and I am sure it would be\nbetter to have him working for us rather than against us.\nIt is my understanding he will not be coming back to\nCalifornia until sometime in October, and then probably\nonly for a day or so in Los Angeles.\nReynolds points out that while you do have a Negro\nPolicy Group in Northern California, you do not have a\ntop campaign spot filled by a Negro up there. As you know,\nwe have Cris Wright as Vice Chairman of the Southern\nCalifornia Campaign Organization. Reynolds strongly\nurges that George Vaughns be asked to take the top spot\nin Northern California. I merely pass this on as a\nrecommendation from Reynolds with no comment from me.\nI do think, however, it is worth considering, and I know\nVaughns is close to some of the members of your Policy\nCommittee.\nJune 25, 1962\nDear Miss Ressler:\nI was sorry to miss your telephone call, but\nappreciate your taking the time to write me\nabout your continuing interest in the campaign.\nWas glad to learn you will be helping out\nwith Mrs. Yeaman's program and certainly hope\nyou will find it possible to remain active in\nthis area.\nAs far as our staff requirements are concerned,\nwe do not anticipate adding to the present\nset-up in our Public Relations and News Bureau\nDepartments. However, we will keep you in mind\nand should something develop here or elsewhere\nin which we feel you might have an interest, will\nget in touch with you immediately.\nMany thanks again for your interest, and best regards.\nSincerely,\nH. R. Haldeman\nSandra M. Ressler\n4537 Varna Avenue\nSherman Oaks, California\nJune 25, 1962\nDear Mr. Feste:\nWe did not use Volunteers for Nixon Clubs in the California primary\ncampaign, nor do we plan to do so in the general election.\nWe did, however, set up a statewide Nixon-for-Governor campaign\norganization with County Chairmen in all 58 counties, and\nCommunity Chairmen in each principal community. The communities\nthen formed Nixon-for-Governor organizations which were in many\nways similar to the Volunteer Clubs that we did use in the 1960\nPresidential campaign. I am sending you under separate cover a\nbank\ncopy of our Manual for Nixon Community Chairmen which I think you\nwill find helpful.\nThis\n:\nWe correlated these Nixon organizations with the County Republican\norganization by first clearing the appointment of the Nixon Area\nChairman with the Republican County Chairman. Once this appointment\nwas cleared, we found that the two were usually able to work well\ntogether. We made it clear that the Nixon Chairman was to coordinate\nand cooperate with the Republican County Chairman, but that of\nnecessity they would conduct separate organizational activities.\nWe plan to follow the same pattern in the fall campaign. If you\nhave any further questions, please don't hesitate to let me know.\nAlso, please be sure to give Mark my very best regards. I remember\nhim fondly from many wild nights in 1960.\nSincerely,\nH. R. Haldeman\nMr. Charles A. Feste, Chairman\nAndrewa-for-Governor Clubs\n403 First National Bank Building\nFargo, North Dakota\n(Ribni)\nJune 25, 1962\nDear Mrs. Reid:\nThank you very much for your\nletter of June 6th. I am sorry this\nreply has been delayed, but had hoped I\nmight be able to write you along more\ndefinite lines than is the case.\nWe are still in the process of\nconsidering various programs and if I may,\nI would like to get in touch with you a\nlittle later on when I will be in a better\nposition to discuss possible areas in which\nyou might have an interest. Certainly your\nbackground is excellent, and we are most\nappreciative of your interest in and desire\nto work for the campaign organization.\nWith kindest regards.\nSincerely,\nH. R. Haldeman\nMrs. Betty Granger Reid\n4219 Market Street\nSan Diego 2, California\nper offers\nJune 25, 1962\nDear Milt:\nThanks for acquainting us with Mr. Johnson's\ninterest in becoming active in the campaign.\nThe fact that he does not require either\nsalary or expense reimbursement certainly\nmakes it an unusual case.\nWhen you receive his detailed brochure, I would\nlike very much to take a look at it. It seems\nto me we could use his services productively.\nBest regards.\nSincerely,\nH. R. Haldeman\nMr. Milton H. Esberg, Jr.\n127 Montgomery Street\nSan Francisco 4, California\nJune 25, 1962\nDear Mrs. Frazier:\nThank you very much for\nyour letter of June 21st acquainting us with\nyour past affiliations, and also your\nthoughts as to possible participation in the\ncampaign.\nI have noted you may be coming\nsouth following your visit at Lake Tahoe\nJuly 2-14. If this is the case, I would suggest\nyou telephone me upon your arrival here. We\ncould arrange a time to meet and discuss\nthis subject further.\nAgain, thank you for your interest\nand kindest regards.\nSincerely,\nH. R. Haldeman\nMrs. Clarence Frazier\n2060 University Drive\nSan Jose 28, California\nJune 25, 1962\nDear Bob:\nI very much appreciated your letter of June 14th\ntogether with your observations on plans for the\nfuture. As to the specific points you raised:\nA.\n24 Sheet Posters:\nX\nWe are very much aware that there were some\nproblems in placement of the posters and we\nwill be very happy to have your group's thoughts\non locations for the fall. I am sure you\ndate\nrealize these are bought on a package basis\nand there is only a limited possibility of\nshifting locations. We of course want to keep\nmaximum pressure on the outdoor companies to\nmake sure we get the best possible showings.\nThe Brown billboard you mentioned is, I believe,\na painted bulletin. As you know, the cost of\nFile: Area File - Alameda County\nthese runs from 10 to 20 times as much as the\n24 Sheet posters, and for this reason we have not\nused them except in a couple of cases where\nbcc w/fax incom. ltr. to - Bill Spencer\nthey have been donated. You might want to explore\nthe possibility of getting some painted bulletin\nlocations donated for the fall campaign. We do have\nartwork prepared which we can transmit to the outdoor\ncompany to be used in painting any locations you are\nable to obtain.\nB. Alameda County Negro Meeting:\nWe will certainly try to work out a time in the\nitinerary for an appearance in Alameda County\ndirected to the Negro population. We very definitely\nrecognize and appreciate the importance of this group.\nBob McKeen\n2\nJune 25, 1962\nC.\nInformation from Mr. Richard L. Bower\nYou mentioned that Mr. Bower had submitted some very\nimportant documents to be reviewed by our staff, but\nyou did not indicate to whom they were sent. This\ninformation would be most helpful in checking this\nthrough.\nPlease feel free at any time to shoot on any information you\nfeel will be helpful or constructive. I would ask, however,\nthat you be sure to send a carbon copy to Bill Spencer on\nanything you send us since I of course will have to rely on Bill\nto handle the day to day management for the campaign in\nNorthern California.\nFinally, let me again express my thanks for the outstanding\njob you and your crew have been doing. We all recognize the\ntremendous up-hill fight you have in Alameda County, but\nare confident that the great effort being put forth there in\nthis campaign will produce results.\nBest regards.\nSincerely,\nH. R. Haldeman\nMr. Robert V. McKeen\nAlameda County Chairman\n1759 Broadway\nOakland 12, California\nMr. Maurice Stans\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nDear Maury:\nThe item in the \"Insuranceflash\" bulletin\non Zenith Insurance Co. and unions' insurance activities\nis interesting and I have sent a copy to our Research\npeople for follow up.\nThe memo from Mr. Rees indicates that Mr. Al Howard\nhas \"tons\" of information on this subject, and I have\nsuggested to our Research people that he can be contacted\nthrough your office for additional material.\nMany thanks for bringing this to our attention.\nThe bulletin is returned herewith.\nResearch Department\n6-25-62\nBob Haldeman\nAttached is fax copy of a paragraph from\n\"Insuranceflash\" which was forwarded to me by Mr. Maurice\nStans.\nIn the memo accompanying this bulletin directed\nto Mr. Stans by one of his staff people, the statement is\nmade: \"Al Howard gave this to me\nAl says if you are\ninterested, he has tons of information on unions' insurance\nactivities.\"\nI don't know who Al Howard is, but he could be\nreached through Mr. Stans' office.\nJune 22, 1962\nDear Mr. Claussen:\nThank you very much for your letter of June 21st.\nCertainly the congratulatory wire to Mr. Mahlon Munson\nX\nis the type of thing Mr. Nixon would like very much\nFile:\nto do. We are, however, bound by policy in this\nconnection. Since he is a candidate in the forthcoming\nelection here, Dick has had to make a firm ruling\nthat there can be no participation in meetings out\nof state. Since the tribute to Mr. Munson is directly\ndate\nrelated to the annual conference of the Plywood\nDistributors Association, I'm afraid this would pre-\nclude a wire being directed to him by Mr. Nixon.\nI am sure this may be difficult for you to understand,\nand want to assure you that in cases like this, it is\njust as difficult for us to abide by the policy\nestablished. Yet, in fairness to the many other\nsimilar requests we have received and will continue to\nreceive, there can be no deviation.\nWith kind regards and best wishes.\nSincerely,\n- to Schedule Office - Message TD (out-of-state)\nH.

He does use some of the\nautographed cards on his trips here, but we\nwould be prohibited from sending a supply\nto you for use back there.\nAgain, thank you for writing. We trust you\nwill understand why our reply to your letter\nmust be as it is.\nWith kind regards.\nFile: Candidate - Endorsements - Policy TD's.\nblind copy: Mr. Robert R. McMillen\nSincerely,\nH. R.
