"Republicans for Brown"
Paul Williams' secretary (he is a prominent Negro
architect and Republican leader) called today to say a
lady had called for Mr. Williams, identifying herself
as working for the "Republicans for Brown".
This lady implied that Williams had been for Brown
four years ago, and she wanted to line him up again.

File:
This was not the case, Williams' secretary told the
caller, and then said that she (the secretary) was a
"Democrat for Mixon". Upon receiving this information,
the caller confided that she too was a Democrat and
date
used to be Brown's secretary, and was just doing this calling
as a "Republican for Brown' as a campaign device.
Perhaps we could check this out and do something with it,
if you feel it is worthwhile.

Brown file
Th. Knudsen called
said he had talked to
Ab England. England told him he was going to vote for
all Republicans except RN; "the reason he is not for RN
goes back to 1958 when Bill Knowland stepped down as
Senator and tried to become Governor, and in that way
caused the debacle of '58. he feels RN has done the
same thing, because Knight had announced he would be a
candidatefor Governor, RN kept still, then he finally
announced he would run
and England holds this against
him. 11
- also Knudsen said that before the primary, England had
tried to reach RN and couldn't.
- Knudsen said it has taken him a week to get in touch with
England -- and he still hopes to sit down and discuss with
him this whole situation and try to make him see where he is wrong!
- he told Knudsen (confidentially) that he was not at the
meeting - written up in the paper.
