CALIFORNIA March 3, 1958 Dear Mr. Some months ago, the Citizens Committee for Voluntary Unionism started a "grass roots" educational program in California to point out the evils that have resulted from compulsory unionism; and the serious threat to the continuation of our way of life if the monopolistic powers nov possessed by big labor unions are not checked. It is not necessary to recite details. The sordid events that have come to light during the McClellan Committee hearings tell the story with sufficient eloquence. Petitions are now being circulated to qualify an initiative constitutional amendment on the "Right to Work" for the November, 1958 ballot. It is important that all of us effort. who believe strongly in individual freedom join in this We can help financially, by sending our contributions to Russell S. Bóck, Treasurer. We can also help by Joining the group of volunteers who are assisting in the circula- purposes. tion of petitions. Cards are enclosed for both of these Those of us who are supporters of the NAM program want to work in every way possible to restore and preserve indivi- dual freedom in America.

McClellan Date: 2-3-62 From: File: McClellan Bob Haldeman Subject: Employee Referrals Distribution: Dear Chad - Just to report, I am asking Carol Arth to follow through and talk to Mrs. Florence Kenny. Her background is of course outstanding, and if something can be worked out, we will certainly do it. Marguerite Wilson, who also contacted you, has had visits here at the office with both Carol Arth and Yvonne Smith. She is still seeking an appointment with me and I try to work this in; however, I'm afraid we just don't have a position suitable to her background and qualifications. Copy of my letter is attached for your information. H. C. McClellan 2-6-62 H. R. Haldeman Dear Chad: The attached was directed here, and is forwarded for your reply. The run-down, for your information: Davidge was contacted about the building three weeks ago, but apparently the contact between him and the Sandviks was never established. They are now working together, the Sandviks are using the old sign, and it is going up. Yvonne Smith of our staff was the contact with the Sandviks. She has also talked with Davidge. Her most recent conversation was with Mrs. Sandvik, andshe covered the building-sign set-up as well as other general area matters. We have written the Sandviks from time to time, acknowledging the Piedge of Support sheets they have sent in. Copy of my letter confirming what Miss Smith has done is attached for your information. To help reply to their first paragraph, second page of their letter, we have pulled the last two lists sent in and fax copies are attached which you can send them. frie January 27, 1962 Mr. J. Ed. McClellan 1356 Bernal Avenue Burlingame, California Dear Mr. McClellan: Copy of your January 18th letter to Chad McClellan and his reply have just been sent over to me by his office. The speaking schedule is getting down to firm commitments for March, and I note you have an inquiry from the Burlingame Chamber of Commerce as to steps to follow. Please have them address a letter to me, at the above address, setting forth the details. Our procedure is to get the invitations into the hands of the Schedule Committee promptly and then come back with an answer. A1 requests must clear through this set-up, so that your question about getting in touch with someone in Northern California and handling it there would only delay action. Please let me know If we can be of further help. I have flagged this interchange for our Schedule Secretary so that when the invitation is received, she will be familiar with the background. Kind regards. Sincerely, H. R. Haldeman cc: Mr. H. C. McClellan File - to Schedule X - McClellan X McC X - Chron. INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM Nixon for Governor To: Date: From: Mr. H. C. McClellan February 1, 1962 Subject: Mr. H. R. Haldeman Distribution: San Diego County Chairman CCI Mr. H. Kalmbach Mr. C. Farrington, Jr. Dear Chad: This is to confirm information given Herb Kalmbach on the telephone Tuesday. During his visit to San Diego on Tuesday, Dick had a private session with C. Arnholt Smith and Admiral Les Gehres and a man whose name, I believe, is Breitbard. As a result of this session and an earlier conversation with Mr. Parkinson (Chairman of Republican Associates). It was agreed that Gehres would serve 23 San Diego County Chairman, Smith as Finance Chairman, and Broitbard as Treasurer. I talked with Gehres Wednesday and it has been agreed between us that no announcement will be made for a short while since Gehres wishes to firm up organization structure and procedure in advance of such announcement. I am asking Charlie Farrington, by copy of this memorandum, to have the News Bureau obtain complete biographical date on these gentlemen pending preparation of the announcement.

VALENTINE 609 SOUTH GRAND AVENUE. ROOM 1201 LOS ANGELES 17. CALIFORNIA January 15, 1962 Mr. H. C. McClellan Old Colony Paint Co. 620 Lamar Street Los Angeles 31, California Dear Chad: I am delighted that you are the over-all chairman of the Nixon for Governor campaign and that Bob Finch will assist. From past experience I believe that it is of the utmost importance that arrangements be made which will hold campaign expenses to anticipated campaign receipts. This year due to the confused politics in Los Angeles County it is going to be difficult to secure as much money as the campaign managers will wish to spend. We have made arrangements to open a finance office in the National 011 Building under the management of Mrs. Opper. This office will be in rooms 414 and 415. Bob White of Price, Waterhouse is our treasurer and Bob Haldeman is campaign manager. I have been acting as temporary chairman. Wednesday I leave for New York and will return on the 24th. In the meantime, please review in your mind the best method of control of expenses. With my kindest personal regards, I am Most sincerely, 3d m CC: Mr. R. L. Minckler Mr. Robert Finch Mr. H. R.
