MEMORANDUM FOR $
RAY PRICE
FROM I
H.R. HALDEMAN
The President has totally rejected the two letter drafts to
Members of Congress, insumbent and non-incumbent. He
makes the point that the letter should be briefer, more pre-
else, shorter sentences. He feels the two draft letters
attached are ulterly terrible and suggests something along
the following lines:
"As you enter the final stages of your campaign, I
want you to know Numb I realine how challenging se is
as 1 recall my first race for Congress. We need
people of your dedication and ability, and I wish you
well."
I don't think he's really thought this one through, but he does
feel that it should be done more tightly than the attached
drafts.
