cash contributions. He wanted it sent on to you for use in
Northern California. I would suggest this as a partial
advance to Jack Flynn for the Veterans' activities, unless
you have a better idea. Since it was cash, it need not go

Paul Davies told me on the phone the other day
he had gotten complaints from people saying they had re-
ceived nice letters from Christopher thanking them for their
contributions but had received none from us.
Would you check and let me know what the trouble
is. I think we need to write these people. However, if
Maury Stans made the decision that we not write them let
him talk to Paul Davies and explain it.
Davies said that Milt Esberg is the one who has
the names and addresses and if we are sending out any type
letter I would like to have someone contact Esberg and see
that the contributions from the people in the north are
acknowledged.

Dear Miss Gaunt:
Attached is an up to date list of Northern California
donors to the Nixon campaign whom Mr. Paul L. Davies,
Chairman of the Northern California Committee, would
like to receive letters of acknowledgment from Mr.
Nixon.
In accordance with instructions from Mr. Haldeman, we
have deleted the amounts of the gifts but have asterisked
in red those contributors of $1000 or more.
Hereafter, at the beginning of each week, we will forward
you a list of additional donors and addresses whose donat-
ions were received the previous week so that they can
likewise be the recipients of letters from Mr. Nixon.
Enclosed is also a list of the members of the Northern
California Finance Committee, which Mr. Haldeman requested
we forward you to receive Nixon letters thanking them for
their service in this capacity.

Dear Milt:
I am leaving for the East Sunday, but I have just come
across in my accumulated correspondence copy of Bob
Haldeman's letter to you dated May 2nd regarding Dick
Nixon acknowledging all contributions inexcess of $100,
with special consideration to those over $1,000.
The only further suggestion I would have would be that
we furnish on the list the full name of the individual
and perhaps Bob or someone on his staff can go over this
and determine those individuals that Dick could call by
first name in addressing the letter and have the letter
started out such as, "Dear Dean" for Dean Witter, etc.
I realize there will be a number that Dick would prob-
ably know by first name if he saw them that he could
not remember to address by first name and perhaps it
might be better for you to underline those that should
be addressed by first name. Probably Bob and you have
more experience in how to work this out than I do, but
I do know that if I received a letter from Dick Nixon
addressed to "Dear Mr. Davies", it would probably hurt
my feelings more than it would help my feelings with
his thoughtfulness.
This is just another problem for Bob and you to worry
about.
Warm regards.
Truly yours,
Paul L. Davies

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Nixon for Governor
To:
H. R. Haldeman
Date: May 1, 1962
From:
Loie Gaunt fgg
Subject:
lists of contributors from the Northern California Finance Committee
Distribution:
How do we get tuned in with the Northern California Finance Committee
to get accurate names and addresses regularly of contributors who
should receive RN letters, albeit not direct acknowledgments of
the contribution.
If it is to be done like the are Southern California Finance Committee
system, what we need to have X names and addresses of $100 and
over contributors, with a special marking on those of $1,000 and
more so that they will receive an autographed copy of RN's SIX
CRISES. No amounts specifically should be shown.
There have been a few Northern Californians on the lists that Lou
Quinn has sent over, but not more than 5 or 6, sonture there must
be a lot more than we don't know about.
Two events led me to put the writing of this memo on the urgent
burner:
Paul Davies called RN, either today or yesterday; one of
his "concerns" which he expressed to RN was George Chrisopher
is acknowledging all the contributions he receives, why don't you?
Carter Barber asked me for copies of my "contribution forms"
yesterday after a telephone conversation with Milt Esberg,
and sent them up to him. I would like to be sure Mr. Esberg
knows and understands what we do and not do with forms, etc.
If you want me to get into this and call someone to get system set up,
fine, let me know. But since I know so little about how the Northern
Finance committee is set up and operates, I wanted to get clearance
and signals straight. If I just wait quietly until lists show up,
that is equally as good better!!
for your information, attached are wxat what I consider as contribution
forms. Counsel RH Finch has said OK for RN to acknowledge along these
lines.
also, we should probably have a complete and accurate list of members
of the Northern California Finance Committee so letters could go to
all of them.
