Wednesday, August 01, 2007 Page 1 of 1 YVONNE SMITH Director Liaison Republican Organizations NIXON FOR GOVERNOR 3908 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles 5, California; DU 5-9161 As an elected official of the Republican Party in our State, you are an important asset to Dick Nixon's campaign. Dick has repeatedly emphasized the necessity for close co- ordination between his campaign and the Republican Party organ- ization. To help to achieve this objective he has appointed me as his liaison representative, charged with the respon- sibility of counselling with you, hearing your suggestions and helping to incorporate them into his overall campaign effort wherever possible. To our knowledge, this is the first campaign in which a staff member has been assigned this full- time task. As a member and past chairman of a California Republican County Central Committee, I consider this a priority assignment. And I know you will appreciate, as I do, the importance Dick places on the leadership of our Party by taking this action. This campaign is being directed to a November victory. As Dick Nixon has so often said, "I have no quarrels with members of my party the best way to win a Primary is to prove how effective you can be in a campaign against your opponent in November--not against a fellow Republican." As a dedicated Republican Party leader, I am sure you can understand the importance of holding firm to this position. The Candidate's statement of last week on water is enclosed. Since I know you will want to study Dick's position on other issues, as well, I plan to mail additional material to you as the campaign progresses. Looking forward to a United Republican Victory and the oppor- tunity of meeting with you soon.
