MEMORANDUM FOR:
DWIGHT CHAPIN
FROM:
L. HIGBY
Tom Huston suggested that the I Care About Congress Committee
invite down about a dozen or so younger Congressmen for a Stag
dinner with the President -- this would include fellows like Crane,
Archer, Goldwater etc. These fellows are young and vibrant and
they could do us much good out in the country -- even though they
don't carry much weight in Congress. They do do a great deal
of speaking to Republican and conservative groups and could be
of particular assistance.
Bob feels that this is a good idea and asked that this be set up
so that it is done this month.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
DR. DAVID DERGE
FROM:
L. HIGBY
As I indicated to you, one of our people had talked to one
of their sources at Gallup regarding the identification
question used in their "trial heats". The following is
reported:
1. If they say "I think he's a politician",
that's not good enough. However, any of
the following terms suffice for identification
purposes:
(a) Senator
(b) Presidential hopeful
(c) Presidential candidate
(d) Ex-Vice Presidential candidate
(e) New England politician
(f) Member of Congress

MEMORANDUM FOR:
BOB FINCH
FROM:
L. HIGBY
Bob asked that I write you rethe President's request
for your views on the latest Gallup poll that was
released Sunday, February 14, that concentrated on
the youth vote in the nation, and the Gallup poll that
appeared in Newsweek on the same subject. In
particular, he would be interested in your thoughts
as to what the political implications are of the data
contained in the Gallup poll and any thoughts you
would have as to what actions we should be taking in
this area.

MEMORANDUM FOR H.R. HALDEMAN
FROM:
L. HIGBY
There apparently is a problem developing with Senator Dole
that people would like you to step into. Dole is giving a series
of Lincoln Day speeches around the country. This would pro-
vide an excellent opportunity to hit Muskie and other Senators,
however Dole has refused to name other Senators, says Nofziger.
Also, Dole is giving a rather lofty speech rather than one that
hits hard and also supports the President's program on Laos - says
Nofziger.
If we want to get something going this week-end you should call
Dole, says Colson and Nofziger.

MEMORANDUM FOR H. R. HALDEMAN
FROM :
L. HIGBY
SUBJECT :
Final Draft of Nixon
and Administration
Image Survey
Attached (Tab A) is a memorandum from Dave Derge and
the proposed final draft on the survey. It is basically a
re-do of the draft that we sent him a week ago.
Some of the questions that you asked be included were
left out, but I have put them back in, notified Derge that
we want them included, and indicated which ones they are
in blue ink in the attached draft.
One point that should be settled: In light of the latest series
of surveys, do you still want to ask any questions on J. Edgar
Hoover?
Yes
NO)
I raised with Derge the problem of probing in the area of
"mystique" and getting some of the "whys" behind answers
to various questions on the sematic differential section of
the test. He indicated to me that some of this will be done in
the pre-test and hopefully as a result of the pretest they will
be able to come up with a suitable method of probing this whole
area.
Recommendation: I recommend your approve the survey as
corrected.
Approve
Disapprove
It is my understanding that this survey is to be
financed by the Republican National Committee,
they would not however have access to the results
of the survey. As you'll note in Derge's attached
letter the total cost of the survey is estimated at
$30,000.
If you agree that the RNC is to pay for the survey
under the conditions listed above, I will proceed
to talk to Tom Evans and make appropriate arrange-
ments.
According to our original agreement with RNC they
were to pay for four field surveys, at the cost of
$25,000 each -- so far they have only paid for three.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
DR. DA VID DERGE
FROM:
L. HIGBY
Bob has asked for your analysis with regard to the latest
Gallup polls on youth and the political implications contained
therein. He also would like any suggestions you should have
as to how we should be moving or what areas we ought to be
hitting as a result of those polls.
It is interesting to note that these people particularly seem
to admire the dead Kennedys and that methodology, but
don't particularly admire Teddy.
It is interesting to note too, how these polls conflict with
the recent data that Harris put out.
Please forward your thoughts.
