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.
