Capinski should be ignored. 1 pg. Friday, February 26, 2010 Page 1 of 1 MEMORANDUM THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON May 11, 1970 TO: HSD FROM: Robin I read Jerris Leonard's letter over the phone to Steve Krouch (nominally running headquarters in N.C.) and Gene Anderson (who still really runs it), and naturally, they were most upset particularly since they have (had) some good candidates in some of the districts involved. Also a couple of the districts went for Nixon in '68. Gene is also pretty mad that none of his ten priority dinner people and none of his "must" list people have gotten anything yet. Can't we please do something about it? The only North Carolina people who have gotten anything are Negroes or Democrats or both. Lias memo MEMORANDUM THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON April 15, 1970 TO: Harry Dent FROM: Tom Lias Tom In regard to the attached telegram from Mr. John A. Capinski, I have been in touch with Jack Jordan and he advises that we should ignore this man. I agree. He is running against an in- cumbent Republican Congressman, which in itself would indicate that we shouldn't get involved -- but more than that, Capinski is a perennial office-seeker and, in fact, will have his name on the ballot in three different places this year -- for Congress, for County Committee, and for State Committee. Capinski, by the way, used the White House with this telegram in that he released it and got a lot of press out of it in the state. Enclosure file
