Miss Irene Isherwood
3016 Manhattan Avenue
Manhattan Beach, California
Dear Miss Isherwood:
Thank you very much for your letter of November 24 and
your most generous offer to help in Richard Nixon's Campaign
for the Governorship of California.
Mr. Nixon, of course, does plan to make a major speech
on health care and your offer of information and a survey of
prominent men in this field would be most valuable.
I am taking the liberty of turning your letter over to our
task force group who will be working on this subject and you will
be hearing directly from them regarding proceeding with your
suggestion.
This will probably not be until shortly after the first of the
year. But, in the meantime, you might be getting together what
information you feel will be of most value and also working out an
outline of what you would propose to include in your survey.
Again, thanks very much for your most generous offer.
We certainly appreciate your interest and will look forward to
working with you.
Best regards.
Sincerely,
H. R. Haldeman

Mr. Robert Haldeman
J. Walter Thompson Company
6505 Wilshire Boulevard
Los Angeles 48, California
Dear Mr. Haldeman:
I want to help Richard Nixon win the governorship of California,
and have a suggestion which may be of some use.
Since Mr. Nixon probably plans to make a major speech on health
care in California, it should be valuable to him to know the
ideas of people connected with it. At our office, we have reams
of material on the subject, and are personally acquainted with
every hospital administrator in Southern California.
If you think a survey of prominent men in this field would be
helpful, I offer my services. My employer, who is himself one of
the foremost authorities on all aspects of health care, has
authorized my making this offer. However, because of the nature
of our business, he wants it to be clear that any help I may be
able to give Mr. Nixon must be as a private citizen, and not as
an employee of Blue Cross.
You might want to check with Hugh Sutherland or Pat Warfield*
before considering this - but if you are interested at all,
please call me at NO 3-9111 during the day, or, after 7 p. m.,
at FR 9-8078.
Sincerely,
here
Irene Isherwood
