MEMORANDUM FOR:
MR. CHAPIN
I need a program from you before we leave for California
that is done on a very confidential basis for the President's
review only, of how Tricia, Julie and Mrs. Nixon can
help in the campaign.
They are not to know we are going this.
What we need is to figure out what would be effective, but not
blatantly political, as a way that they could go out to hel P
candidates. This would, of course, make it possible for them
to cover states without the President having to go in.
Some thought should be given to this with the political people
but not in such a way that it gets back to the East Wing until
we've worked up some ideas for the President to consider.
This is a matter of high priority. Don't let it drop.

MEMORANDUM FOR: MR. CHAPIN
We should, as you know, work up some recommendations
for Tricia and Julie for campaigning. We should always
look for places where they will get TV coverage. Visits
to Fairs, etc., would be good - they should not just do
teas with the Republican women. They should be used for
top Congressional candidates and can also be used to
score Brownie points in the good states like Kansas, where
the President and possibly the Vice President will not be
able to go.

MEMORANDUM FOR :
MR. CHAPIN
19/30/30
7/30
When Lodge gets back from Rome he should be scheduled for
a speaking tour around the country and be used as heavily as
possible from now through the election, speaking to every major
Catholic group we can line up all over the country, concentrating
almost totally in the key states where the re are Catholics such
as Illinois, Ohio, California, Wisconsin. That is, those states
where we have strong Senate races where the Catholic vote is a
major influence. He should not make a political speech, but he
should allow the candidate, our candidate, to appear with him
and he should give a report to these Catholic groups on the great
progress being made as a result of our opening relationships with
the Vatican.
Have someone in the political operation make an analysis of the
states that meet the above criteria and let me see a plan for how
you are going to use Lodge. If there is any reluctance on Lodge's
part, the President will put the heat on him.
