MEMORANDUM FOR:
MR. KLEIN
?
FROM:
H.R. HALDEMAN
Would you please undertake, as a special project, liaison
with Billy Graham and his people.
He was enormously helpful to us in the Border South
in 1968 and will continue to be in 1972, but we need
to have someone in charge of this organizational
activity at an early date. For example, in going after
our breakthrough in the Catholic front we have to
remember that our primary source of support will be
among the fundamentalist Protestant, and we can
probably substantially broaden that base of support.

MEMORANDUM FOR: H.R. HALDEMAN
FROM:
THE PRESIDENT
On the political front, it is important to start an early liaison
with Billy Graham and his people. He was enormously helpful
to us in the Border South in '68 and will continue to be in '72.
But, we need to have someone in charge of this organizational
activity at an early date. For example, in going after our
breakthrough on the Catholic front we have to remember that
our primary source of support will be among the fundamentalist
Protestants, and we can probably substantially broaden that
base of support.

CONFIDENTIAL
MEMORANDUM FOR:
MR. KLEIN
FROM:
H.R. HALDEMAN
SUBJECT:
Friendly Persuasion
We should undertake an effort to get the film Friendly
Persuasion rerun throughout the country. Frank
Shakespeare has indicated that the best manner in which
to handle this would be to advise the individual stations,
which hold rights to this film, of the details of
identification of the Presidential family with the film. He
feels that most stations would then play the film as a local
"special" with a particular promotional effort.
Local Republican committees could be used as a backstop,
as appropriate. Frank has indicated that your office should
probably be the one to spearhead this project and I agree.
He has a list of the stations which now hold the film
Friendly Persuasion and will be happy to forward it to you.
Your office should put together a complete and thorough
background record on the relationship of the family in the film
to the President's family, and we should then get this informa-
tion to the television stations through an appropriate source.
Please let me know your plan with regard to this matter sometime
during the next week.
