Re: Unity\nfundraisers to take place after primary. 1pg.\nThursday, July 26, 2007\nPage 1 of 1\nMay 21, 1962\nDear Bob:\nAs I am sure you know by now from the State Central\nCommittee, the plans for a series of unity fund-raising\nactivities in the major cities throughout the state\nshortly after the primary have been dropped. This was\nnecessarily the decision due to the inability to put\nX X X\ntogether a suitable organization and get the program\nunder way soon enough to make it successful. As I am\nsure you recognize, it would have had to be handled\nby the State Central Committee since we could not divert\nthe campaign organization at this crucial point in the\ndate\nPrimary effort.\nI had told George Murphy of your interest in this\nMcK (McKeen)\nRN memo file\nactivity and imagine he has been in touch with you.\nThe finance people have all agreed that a similar effort\nin the fall campaign will be much more productive and that\nis the course to which we are apparently committed at\nthis time.\nBest regards.\n- WIN WITH NIXON -\nFile: Finance - Unity fund-raising St.Cen.Com.\nR.

They expected a call last week so if you have\nnot talked with him, please do SO.\nThe reason I want you to call him is Bob Finch tells me he hasn't\nbeen able to work it out - just be sure that the Oakland man has been kept\ninformed. Let them know if we are not going to be able to do it as they\nare holding a hall up there and have set the date already.\nRuth Watson\n5-15-62\nBob Haldeman\nDear Ruth:\nI have your letter of May 11th\nabout the Alameda County fund-raising plans.\nThe State Central Committee is\nconsidering putting on a series of unity fund-raising dinners\nor other fund-raising activities in the major cities throughout\nthe state. This is planned shortly after the primary.\nAs soon as this is definite, then it\nwould be fine if the Nixon Committee and the County Central\nCommittee could get together and plan a real show at the\nOakland Auditorium.\nAt the moment, however, it would\nappear we will have to await developments on the State\nCommittee's plans.\nNIXON FOR GOVERNOR\nNorthern California Office\nSuite 619-620, 525 Market St., San Francisco 5; DO 2-5576\nANDREW DOWNEY ORRICK\nMay 11, 1962\nNorthern California Chairman\nMr. Bob Haldeman\n3908 Wilshire Blvd.\nLos Angeles 5, Calif.\nDear Bob:\nWhen Dick Nixon met with the Alameda County Finance people\nhe mentioned the One Night Stand Shows scheduled for\napproximately June 15 - 20. Alameda County is interested\nin this and could secure the Oakland Auditorium for June 20\nonly. It is booked pretty solid.\nThey are most anxious to know if this is going to occur because\nthey would like to start organizing ticket sales. Dick told\nthem that he would expect 5,000 at the Auditorium, that the\nmoney would be used for candidates' campaigns, starting with the\ngubernatorial and they would want some of it pro-rated to their\nassembly candidates The County Central Committee and the Nixon\nCommittee in Alameda County would work together on this and bring\nin other candidates after June 5.\nCould you let Bob McKeen and/or me know if this has any chance of\nbeing produced.\nKind personal regards.\nVery truly yours,\nRich\nMrs. Ruth Watson\nRW/jmb\n53\nMay 2, 1962\nX X X\n...\nFile:\nDear Mr. Nicol:\nDick Nixon has asked that I answer your letter of\nApril 20th.\nN (Nicol)\ndate\nAs you probably know, the State Central Committee\nis considering putting on a series of unity fund-\nraising dinners or other fund-raising activities\nin the major cities throughout the state. This is\nplanned shortly after the primary.\nIf this plan is put into effect, it would, I assume,\npreclude your plan for a Republican Associates\ndinner in San Diego on June 8th. Needless to say,\nwe heartily endorse your idea of firing up the\nSan Diego Republicans and reunifying them after the\nprimary, but de feel that any final acceptance\nshould await developments on the State Committee's\nKind regards.\nRepub Assoc.
