California THORNWALL 5-7000 VICTORIA 9-3911 11-2-62 DEAR BOB: SORRY THAT THE BULLETIN INTERRUPTED MR. NIXON'S APPEARANCE THIS MORNING ON THE "TODAY" SHOW. ATTACHED IS A TRANSCRIPT OF THAT PORTION OF THE INTERVIEW REQUESTED BY HERB KLEIN. PLEASE EXPRESS MY PERSONAL REGRET AND APOLOGIES TO MR. NIXON. SINCERELY DON ROBERTS MANAGER, NEWS OPERATIONS PACIFIC DIVISION DONALD C. ROBERTS MANAGER, NEWS OPERATIONS NATIONAL BROADCASTING COMPANY, INC. AREA CODE 213 SUNSET & VINE THORNWALL 5-7000 Los ANGELES 28, CALIFORNIA VICTORIA 9-3911 21/2 MINUTES PRIOR TO BULLETIN AND 1 ¹ ₂ MINUTES AFTER BULLETIN NIXON - TODAY SHOW NIXON It's rather enjoyable meeting people in the farms and factories - you can't do that when you're running for President and travelling to 50 states. And you get into some very out of the way places, believe it or not. I stayed the other night in a hotel called the Boondocks. It's the name of a hotel. It's in Walnut Grove, California. One of the best hotels, incidentally, that I've ever been in. But I've been to the Boondocks in California. I didn't get to the Boondocks when I was running for President. GRONSKY: Mr. Nixon, Why do you think you'd make a better Governor than Mr. Brown? NIXON: Well, I think that California, as it becomes the first state in the nation, needs to upgrade the quality of those who serve, particularly in appointee positions in Sacramento. We need to be in the big leagues and we need a Governor who can attract and who will attempt to bring to Sacramento, regardless of party label, men of high qualification to run the biggest state business in America. I think I can serve in that way and also I have programs that will move California forward and not simply be satisfied with rather just reacting to the great problems of a fast growing state. AGRONSKY: Now Governor Brown insists that you've no interest in California - that you merely stay here - and I quote Governor Brown now - "to convert the State Capitol into Nixon for President Headquarters." Mave you renounced truly a presidential ambition? NIXON: I certainly have. I'm glad to state it again on the TODAY Show, which has a big listening audience across this nation. Being Governor of the first syate is a full time four year job and I'm not going to do what Mr. Brown did when he became Governor of this state in '58. He started to run for President four months later. And when you taketime off to -2- NIXON: concentrate on running for President, you can't handle the problems of (cont'd) this state. I will not, under any circumstances, be a candidate for President. I'm going to be Governor of California. AGRONSKY: You regard that then as a flat renunciation. NIXON: An absolutely flat renunciation and just as great as was and flat as was General Sherman's. AGRONSKY: Um-hm. Now, Mr. Nixon, what effect has the Cuban crisis, which happily has now subsided, had on this campaign and most particularly on your own election prospects? NIXON: Very difficult to assess it. You know everybody takes polls. I haven't seen any since the Cuban crisis came along. But there're some who think it helps Mr. Brown because of his identification or attempting to identify himself with the national administration. There are others who think it may help me due to the fact that I have been somewhat knowledgeable in this field and have spoken out strongly in support of President Kennedy's policy. My guess is that we won't know the answer till November 6th, but my guess is that it balanced off - that it didn't help either of us or hurt either of us significantly. AGRONSKY: You really feel that then? NIXON: That's the way I feel about it, but I'm no expert in this field. AGRONSKY: considerable national Could you project it on a national scene? NIXON: The national scene - it tends to help imcumbents when they're running for the Senate or the House of Representatives. People - (BULLETIN) -3- NIXON: the deal with Communism in California supplementing what is done nationally. This isn't a question of the loyalty of Mr. Brown or myself. I notice, forexample, just two days ago that he said that he was a better American than I was. Now, I don't answer by saying that I'm a better American than he is. I think he's a good American. I hope that I am. The question is what do we want to do to deal with Communism. I think I know something about this field and I, therefore, have offered a pro- gram - a program which meets constitutional requirements to supplement what is done nationally to deal with Communism in California - not because we fear it but because we need to deal with the conspiracy whose agents are completely controlled by a potential enemy of the United States. AGRONSKY: You don't feel, Mr. Nixon, that this is a straw man in California that Communism really is not of sufficient proportions in this state to really be of such significance that you would devote a considerable portion of your campaigning to regard it as an issue? NIXON: Martin, that same argument was made when I was investigating the Hiss case 12 years ago. You were in Washington at the time. And they said this is a red herring. Mr. Truman said it. But here was Alger Hiss - a man who had the best education you can get in America - who was a Supreme Court Judge's secretary - who went to Yalta - went to the United Nations Conference - was a Communist - and an espionage agent. It was a red herring they said. No, it's not a straw man. Whenever there're indivi- duals like that - whether they're on our campuses or any place else - we don't fear them, but we need to expose them and we need to see to it that they can't spread their poison in America. AGRONSKY: Mr. Nixon, what would you regard as the fundamental difference in political philosophy between yourself and Governor Brown? NIXON: Perhaps it gets back to the question we discussed at the outset - federalism - that's a big word - FROM I THE DESK OF I Harriett Weigand file Bob: Here is TV spot schedule of times for the week of Oct. 31-November 5th.

Ho3-6034, have engaged the services of an Elby Cuniberti, 6066 Sunset Boulevard. He will see to it that our Nixon film is expedited with the cooperation of Sandy Quinn. Elby will receive film from me, Sandy will order number of prints and destinations. Elby will ship with news story supplied by Sandy. Charges for this, depend- ing upon the number of prints ordered and shipped, could run from $50.00 to $150.00 per day. Furthermore, since shipping companies will only deal with cash, Mr. Cuniberti should have an advance of at least $500.00 in order to get it underway. All money spent by Elby on our behalf will, of course, be accounted for. I*d like to start this as soon as possible. Jan McCoy, along with Multi-Chrome Film Lab in San Francisco, will expedite from that area. JA:jr must have estimate you of no. of print use day do d we no.
