Dear Mrs. Wood:
First thank you for your answer to my letter, yours arriving June 7th.
I do not expect you to answer this note at this busy time. Maybe sometime
later. I'm mailing clippings to you, from newspapers that disturbed me.
It may be a waste of time but there might be something that President
Nixon can use.
I'm very concerned for New Jersey. Senator Case hasn't said, to my
knowledge anything for President Nixon. We all vote for him because
we don't want a democrate.
Newark is all colored.
What about Massachusetts?
Many of us wrote to G. Meany. I told him I had eight women here for
the day and we all felt he was very disrespectful to President Nixon. He
hasn't answered as yet. I've written a number of letters and received
answers to all of them.
I saw McGovern and his play boy V.P. (hoping) and what awful things
they are saying. Really they are on T.V. every day with something
new. We got a quick glance of President Nixon with the newsmen, That
was all. There are no stickers on cars, and I've only seen one for
Page 2
McGovern and Wallace - on an old car.
Buttons are beginning to show for P. Nixon. I belong to the Republican
club in Lakewood; and it is quite a different class of people then in
Bergen County, Englewood, where I lived and worked on the Rep.
board.
These Lakewood folks are all good Republicans, voting 4 more years,
so I'm with them. Much is said about the Democrats coming in for P.
Nixon, and we hear and read, Remember Dewey.
Tell President Nixon the family picture is on my TV and I do
entertain a good deal; so we have a round of politics , and all are for
our President. My daughter and her husbend in Tenafly, N.J. are
working again this year. They worry about crookedness at the poles.
It's prevelent in some places. Lodi, Jersey City.
We heard V.P. Agnew just for a few minutes on T.V. one eve this
past week. Nothing is said where he is or where he will be next.
I listen to the ten P. M. news , and then the Eleven P.M. News. Then
while eating my breakfast I listen to the 8:30 A. M. news.
Did I tell you I'm from Mass., and my Grandfather Sweet (Mother's
father) played checkers with Teddy Roosevelt and worked always for
Republicans. Outside of Williamstown Mass. there is a small place
named Sweet's Corners, The Governor came over and named the small
town Sweet's Corners after my grandfather in the 1890.
Page 3
Station 4 T. V. is very careful how they spread the news. That
Bill Monroe is also careful. He will ask a leading question. The
rumor for yrs is that the station belongs to the Kennedys.
I'm sending a small check to Washington Hwadquarters for the finance
committee. I'm a widow and my eyes are bothering me, as my
writing show, I hope you will forgive me for taking your time
and if we never meet, May God Bless you and yours and may we
have President Nixon for four more years.
Sincerely,
(Sg.) Mrs . Alvin Hill

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Bob Haldeman
FROM:
Rose Mary Woods
Road
Another call which I feel is important
to pass along.
A man - for whose opinion I have great
respect - called to say the feeling he gets from quite a bit
of traveling throughout the country is - as ours - that the
President will win very big. However, he is greatly
concerned if the Democrats have the Senate that they are
going to put on the damndest investigation of the wheat
business, Watergate, ITT, what-have-you, that we have
ever seen.
He suggests if it is possible that we
take five million dollars of this money and use it to take
over the Senate. He feels there must be spots where we
could get real results and provide the President with the
Senate so Kennedy and the others could not immediately
start hearings to try to discredit the great job the President
has done.
