Attached Brown Release
In picking up some other releases today I was given the attached
one -- it seems as though Brown has picked up every minority group possible
in this one, doesn't it?
I don't know if you have any thoughts on it but it seems to me
this is one terrific way to get to these people -- have their names listed
no matter what we have them assigned to do. These people probably are not
doing anything but lending their names.

Comments on Brown Breakfast
The following are reactions to the campaign kickoff
breakfast held for Governor Brown at the Civic Auditorium
April 10. Since I was unable to take notes, these are
simply the impressions gathered and the points I can
remember which were covered by the Governor.
First of all, when the head table entered there was a
noticeable lack of enthusiasm. Although an organ had
been playing beforehand, no music preceeded the Governor's
entrance although it was in evidence a few minutes after
he had entered. The Democrate sitting next to me commented
that he guessed it was a bit early in the morning for people
to be enthusiastic.
Jack Morrison acted as Master of Ceremonies most of the
time and Thomas Finney introduced the head table, both of
these gentlemen being co-chairmen for the breakfast. Among
those at the head table were Richard Richards, Alan Cranston,
District Attorney and Mrs. Tom Lynch, Roger Kent and two
or three people involved in the Brown Campaign whose names
I do not recall. Tom Lynch made the introduction of the
Governor.
The Governor was himself very buoyant and in his greeting
to the audience referred to the "Democrats I have already
appointed to various jobs an boards and those I will be
appointing in the future". During the first few minutes of
his speech he talked in baseball language undoubtedly due to
the fact that today is the opening day for major league
baseball. He referred to the fact that the Democrats would
be throwing hard and fast but not at the head but that
they could anticipate the opposition would be throwing curves
and low fouls. Getting into the main theme of his message
he stressed the fact that there were almost seven million
registered Democrats in the state and that the job of the
audience was to get out the vote of those seven million.
He then went into a dissertation on the accomplishments of
the Brown Administration. His first reference to Mr. Nixon
- 2 -
was in the form of a comment about his "No name" opponent
who he maintained was completely unfamiliar with the
stadium in which the ball game was being played, having his
eye on a grandstand play 3,000 miles away. The Governor
made a point of illustrating Mr. Nixon's lack of knowledge
about state problems by referring to an incident in Long
Beach recently when Mr. Nixon was asked about a particular
bill, I believe the Doyle Bill. Apparently, Mr. Nixon
indicated he was not familiar with the particular bill
and Mr. Brown then went on to explain that this was a pro-
gram involving mental health which had been in effect for
five years having been started in the Knight Administration
and which presumably has been very successful. The Governor
commented that perhaps Mr. Nixon's "task force" better get
to work.
In citing his own record of accomplishment he referred to
the fact that in 1958 he had promised the people of
California a number of things which he and the Legislature
have since produced. He referred to the improvement of the
educational system particularly school construction citing
that facilities were being provided for the 200,000 new
students who enter school each year and also that facilities
were now being provided for those young people who wanted
to go on to state colleges and universities. He also in-
dicated that the quality of instruction was constantly being
improved and that in a short time students from the sixth
grade on would be taking a foreign language as part of their
studies. On the subject of freeways the Governor referred
to his master plan for scenic freeways of some 5,000 miles,
and on the subject of beaches and parks he indicated that
this was a very important area not to be overlooked. He
indicated that property bought some years ago for such
purposes was now worth $350,000,000.00 and that the
$150,000,000.00 bond proposal upcoming would eventually
mean billions of dollars in great wealth for the state.
Incidently, the Governor urged the passage of all of the
bonds which will appear on the June Primary Ballot.
- 3 -
on the subject of crime the Governor indicated that
he was something of an expert since he had been
a District Attorney and had grappled with the problem
at its lowest level. He indicated that he had point-
ed out the need for stronger laws which had been enacted
and referred particularly to the passage of Legislation
strengthening the penalties for peddling dope but in-
dicated that the victims of the peddlers, the addicts,
would be given a second chance.
On the subject of the budget the Governor indicated
that he expected to lose the six pounds he had been
trying to take off without success but that he was
sure the new budget would pass. He"blamed "Mr. Shell
to a great extent for the failure of the budget to
pass in the budget session. Incidently, he referred
to it as the fourth straight balanced budget presented
and indicated that all of the many accomplishments of
the Administration had been fulfilled even within a
balanced budget. He indicated that there were
responsible Republicans and progressive Republicans
in the State Legislature who would not let partisan-
ship jeopardize the future of the state and he was,
therefore, confident that the new budget would pass.
He blamed the Republicans for their lack of interest
in the needy and the aged and indicated that the welfare
and unemployment programs in this state were the finest
in the country.
The Governor said he was confident that the audience
was going to be part of the biggest "truth squad" that
had ever been gathered and that if these people would
point out the truth of his record there would be no
difficulty in his continuing the programs he had begun.
He also indicated that help was available from "unnamed
sources". He indicated he did not intend to leavethese
unfinished jobs to either Mr. Nixon or Mr. Shell to
complete. There were several other inuendoes about Mr.
Nixon particularly a reference to the fact that in spite
- 4 -
of his protests that he was not seeking the nomination
in '64 that that was actually the case. He indicated
that in the current Republican Primary Campaign Mr.
Nixon was campaigning on such things as Cuba and Katanga
while Mr. Shell was campaigning on the fact that California
was becoming a welfare state. As illustrations of his
point that California was first in the nation he referred
to last year's figures on personal income which he claimed
was the highest in the history of the state and such things
as the income from agriculture, some three billion dollars
and so forth. These figures were given in millions or
billions of dollars and he used this point to indicate
that there was a healthy business climate in California.
Incidently, earlier in his remarks the Governor had in-
dicated that although they were not present he wanted to
make it clear that he was behind Stanley Mosk, Glenn
Anderson and Bert Betts who were part of a fine Democratic
team who was getting things done. The Governor also paid
particular homage to Senator Richards stating that he was
one of the greatest Legislators this state had ever seen.
One other point the Governor made about Mr. Nixon was his
reference to the fact that he was still "playing checkers".
On several occasions when the Governor alluded to Mr. Nixon
with some degree of sarcasm, the audience applauded. I
believe I also failed to mention that when the Governor
was introduced there was something of a demonstration with
people standing and clapping and a number of signs but I
would not call it a really enthusiastic demonstration.
There are perhaps other points I may have overlooked
mentioning but I believe these are the highlights, at
least as I recall them. I hope they will be helpful.
