MEMORANDUM FOR:
BOB FINCH
FROM:
H. R. HALDEMAN
Sandoval made the point today to the President that we
are not exploiting sufficiently the things we have done
and are doing for Mexican Americans. The President
of course, feels that this is something we need to give
more attention to because we have some opportunities
with this group to a much greater extentithan we do with
the Blacks.
He feels that Leonard Garment is the wrong man to be
dealing with the Mexican Americans, because his over-
riding concern is for Blacks. Therefore, he feels that
you should take on the responsibility for the exploitation
of our Mexican American accomplishments.
In this connection, he wants to be sure we use Mannie
Lujan as effectively as we can. Also, he wants us to
get in touch right away with Garcia, who is Bebe's man
in Florida. Get him on legal retainer right away and
have him start moving around organizing in the Mexican
American community around the country. Bebe and the
President discussed this over the weekend and Garcia is
Honote
apparently anxious and ready to go, but does need some
financial support which we should set up a means of giving
him. Would you work this out with Chuck Colson and get
something going as soon as you can.

Also the President is asking about the status of the White
House conference on Mexicans. Can we get a report in
to him on that?
