Reader's Digest Reprints
Al Cole advised us 100,000 reprints of the
Caracas chapter were shipped August 31st, compliments of
Reader's Digest - and in addition, he has just advised me
that although the chapter did not appear in the Spanish
edition, he has had it translated with a note on it that it
is a translation of material published in the U.S. edition
of the Digest. So in addition to the 100,000 reprints, he
is also sending 50,000 copies of the Spanish translation.
I have written him today, and am suggesting a
letter to Lois to go out over your signature.
Fred Haffner will follow through on distribution
along the lines of our conversation and your subsequent
memos.

August 27, file 1962

Bob Haldeman

From:
RN
Subject:
Distribution:
In reading the poll I have several random comments that may be
of some use.
In view of our very weak showing among young people I think this
underlines the necessity of following my suggestions of getting more young
people into campaigns, at least from the standpoint of public knowledge.
I think we need pictures of me with Nixonettes, Nixonairs, younger chair-
Klein
ment etc. whenever possible. Looking back at the primary I think we
will have to admit that our emphasis was pretty heavy on the side of those
in the upper age brackets. Young people I think react intuitively to candidates
who are seen with younger people than they do otherwise. Kennedy used
this very effectively in 1960 and there is no reason why Brown should have
any advantage over us in the 21 to 30 bracket. In fact, we shoul d actually
have more appeal to youth than he should from a personal standpoint.
One interesting point was that the poll disclosed that a majority of
voters thought Lyndon Johnson would hurt Brown if he came in and spoke
for him rather than help him. I would suggest that you pass this on to
Ft
Finch with the idea that Finch would plant it with two or three of the Washington
Ke
columnists. There is nothing that will needle Johnson more than to have
this kind of thing get out. In fact, it will make the story better if some figures
are used to back it up. For example, it might be said that 60 percent, or
some other percentage, of all voters polled indicated that Johnson would hurt
rather than help.
- 2
Dave Hunter's analysis of the results was excellent. I would suggest
that a copy of that, on a very limited basis, be passed around among key
PR
campaign people who have anything to do with our public relations. I repeat
that this must be done on a very restricted basis.
mtg
In terms of pollsmanship the figures on Independent voters are
significant. Also, the breakdown as to Southern California is significant.
Ft
For example, a story might be leaked or put out to the effect that Nixon
leads in Southern California an d leads substantially among Independent voters
Ke
giving specific figures. Perhaps the most important revelation of the poll
is the breakdown as to what voters might change their minds or are simply
leaning toward one candidate or the other rather than actually being for him.
It is significant to note that the greatest numbers in these categories are from
a geographical standpoint located in the Valley and otherwise they are among
Catholics, union members, Democrats and In dependents.
I do not suggest that our major concentration should not continue to
be in our area of strength -- the Southern Counties -- I do suggest that we
should have these other factors in mind in planning our schedule. One breakdown
that I would like to see further information on is with regard to Mexicans.
I would be curious to know how they as a group are voting at the present time
and particularly what percentage of them are in the might change group.

I do not believe that my statement with regard to the AFL-CIO's
refusal to invite me to address their Convention was adequately reported.
I would like to have you get that brief excerpt of Brown's statement
in which he charged that I was "afraid to appear before the AFL-CIO
Convention" and add below it my full statement which was in reply to it.
I then would like to have this statement with a brief covering note sent to
our key public opinion leaders editors of daily papers and columnists
of daily papers, etc. throughout the state - as well as TV columnists and
also our key finance and political types. There is a list in the headquarters
covering this type of group. The covering note should state only briefly
that in view of the fact that this will be a continuing issue throughout the
campaign the statements are sent to them for their information.
What I am trying to get across through this mailing is the fact that
Brown is a captive of the unions - that I have refused to take a 100 percent
union line and that I intend to carry my campaign over the heads of the union
political bosses to the members of the unions themselves. I will leave
to you the decision as to the make-up of the enclosure and the extent of the
mailing.

John is following up on this group in
several ways.
First, those in the group who are not directly
connected with or employed by the University
are going to form the nucleus of the UCLA Alumni for
Nixon, with a mailing planned to the entire Alumni

Second, some of the key individuals within the
group are being asked for specific help in their own

Jim Bassett suggested that Finney Jackson and Byron Rumford are two
possibilities among Negro groups who should beused. I think one is in Alameda
and the other in Los Angeles.
9-16-62
To: RN
Finney Jackson is already working for us and has been for
several years.
Byron Rumford is the Democratic Assemblyman from Alameda County
and hardly one to be helpful to us. I am at a complete loss to
understand Bassett's suggestion regarding using him. I have checked
this with our Northern California people, and they have assured me
that he is about as violently opposed to us as anybody we could find
in the State of California.
Bob Haldeman

Jud Leetham
Jim Bassett believes that Leetham should be called into a campaign planning
session at some time so that he will not be able to say that he hasn't been consulted.
I think this suggestion is worthwhile.
One thing you might want to talk to Leetham about is my suggestion that I
would be glad to speak to a big meeting of precinct workers later in the campaign --
perhaps two weeks before the election. This might get him a project which he could
undertake and one which would also be helpful to us.
Also, you have to find a way to see that he is covered on the Eisenhower
visit. Here, we might want to have some system worked out whereby tickets for
the balcony have first priority -- and some of the lower price tickets to the balcony
be given to precinct workers as well, of course, as to some of our own top staff people.
9-16-62
To:
RN
I have already talked with Leetham and his people several times regarding
the precinct workers meeting, and we have also worked out a system for
admitting them to the balcony at the Nixon Dinner on October 8th. It
may be that it will work out better to make all of the balcony seats
free -- giving them all to precinct workers -- and let that take the
place of the meeting. We would then stage a big L.A. Rally later in
the campaign for the general public, with some sort of priority and
recognition for the precinct workers.

Frank Luckel and Admiral Decker
On August 2nd Les Gehres was contacted and asked to get
in touch with Frank Luckel. He said he would try to enlist
him as a member of his Advisory Committee, and a further
follow-up report received just today advises that Frank
Thornton is also checking with Luckel. Gehres pointed out
what we already knew, that Luckel had been quite active in the
Shell program in the primary.
Gehres has told us that he doesn't want to get Admiral Decker
into the act for the reason that he is one of the leading
Birchers in the county and in the primary was anti-Nixon.

I am planning to change the character of this meeting on
Saturday from a discussion on whether we have television debates to
a searching evaluation of our campaign to date and a hard look as to how
we can strengthen our organization.
I would like for you to be prepared at sometime during the meeting
to take about 30 minutes for the purpose of giving us a round-up of where
everything stands.
1. What the campaign organization has done and has accomplished
during the summer months following the primary.
2. What we have in the way of a campaign organization now.
3. What progress we are making on all of the various projects.
For example, I want you to touch on campaign literature - distribution
of bumper strips, etc., the book project. I also think you should give us
a report on our campaign among Democrats, among Mexicans, Negroes and
other minority groups and our campaign among the labor organizations.
A thorough-going report on the WIN program. An analysis of our program
among the 21-to-45 group - men and women.

I thought you should know RN marked on the
last sentence I AGREE. The sentence was: "We should
not always move the opposition to the head of the class and
leave our proven friends to make the best of it. " -- I agree.
