Brown Chairman of the Board Kentucky Fried Chicken Louisville, Kentucky Dear Mr. Brown: We are writing in our capacity as public relations counsel to Glen Campbell and at the specific direction of his manager, Mr. Nick Sevano, with regard to a story carried in Sunday editions of the Los Angeles Times. We under- stand that similar stories containing reference to a forthcoming telethon and the supposed participation of Mr. Campbell have appeared elsewhere. As the attached press advisory which we are distributing today indicates, neither Mr. Campbell nor any of his associates has ever been contacted with regard to your telethon. Were the request to have been made, it would have been politely declined for the reasons outlined in Mr. Sevano's press advisory statement. We ask that you take measures immediately to insure that Mr. Campbell's name is in no way used in connection with this event in any forthcoming news releases or in any other fashion. Too, we respectfully request that you take steps now to issue a correction to news media where stories using Mr. Campbell's name have appeared or been broadcast. Thank you for your attention to this request. Cordially, ROBERT S. LEVINSON RSL:bd cc: Mr. Elton Rule President, ABC-TV Network Democratic National Party new your 300 central park west / suite 12e / new york. new york 10025 / (212) 595-3336 also. longon 6565 sunset boulevard / suite 225 los angeles, california 90028 levinson and ross (area code 213) 461-8441 creatire communications cable: PR.EXPOSURE May 1, 1972 For Immediate Release PRESS ADVISORY Los Angeles--Glen Campbell knows nothing about plans to raise funds for the Democratic Party through a telethon in July, despite published reports that list him among entertainers scheduled to perform during the event. "Neither Mr. Campbell nor anyone connected with him has been contacted concerning such a telethon, " stated his personal manager, Nick Sevano. "Mr. Campbell is not associated in any way with this project and, were a request to be made for his participation, it would be declined. "While Mr. Campbell regularly lends his time and talents to a variety of charitable projects, these are non-political events, " Sevano continued. "He prefers to stay removed from partisan politics, whether Democratic or Republican in nature." Sevano said a letter asking that Campbell's name be removed from future announcements--and that corrections be issued where reports of participation have been published-- will be sent today (Monday, May 1) to people identified as backers of the event. #### Note: The story in question first came to attention in Sunday, April 30, editions of the Los Angeles Times; Section A, Page 16. new york los angeles london COMMITTEE FOR THE RE-ELECTION OF THE PRESIDENT MEMORANDUM May 3, 1972 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM FOR: MR. JOHN N. MITCHELL THROUGH: JEB S. MAGRUDER FROM: HERBERT L. PORTER SUBJECT: Invitation for the Vice President to Appear at Nassau County Republican Committee Fund-Raising Dinner We would appreciate receiving your recommendation on the question whether the Vice President should accept an invi- tation to appear at a fund-raising dinner sponsored by the Nassau County Republican Committee, which is to be held in the Nassau Coliseum, on June 12, 1972. The financial arrange- ments would be a payment of $15,000 to the Finance Committee to Re-elect the President. In addition, the Nassau County Republican Committee would pay the expenses not in excess of $10,000. The invitation was extended by Mr. Joseph M. Margiotta, Chairman of the Nassau County Republican Committee. Mr. Margiotta would not, under any circumstances, agree to a 50-50 net split with the New York Committee for the Re- election of the President, or to a payment of 15% of the gross proceeds to the Finance Committee to Re-elect the President. Mr. Margiotta would not agree to a lesser surrogate subject to our 10% rule. Mr. Stans does not agree with Mr. Margiotta's financial proposal, but requested that we refer the matter to you for consideration. We discussed the matter with Mr. R. Burdell Bixby, who reported that 5,000 people will attend the dinner at a cost of $125 per plate. The size of the crowd will not depend 2 on the presence of the Vice President. Mr. Bixby stated that the question depended solely on the political value of an appearance by the Vice President in Nassau County. He said that they "urgently need" the Vice President in Nassau and he recommends that you approve the event on Mr. Margiotta's financial terms. We recommend that the Vice President consider an invitation to appear at the Nassau County Republican Committee fund- . raising dinner on June 12, 1972, on the condition of a payment of $15,000 to the Finance Committee to Re-elect the President, plus expenses not in excess of $10,000.

Thanks! Sincerely, John N. Mitchell Committee for the Re-election of the President MEMORANDUm April 18, 1972 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM FOR THE HONORABLE JOHN N. MITCHELL FROM: JEB S. MAGRUDER Attached for your information is a copy of the Group Recruiter's Handbook and a copy of the Orientation Kit for Nixon Leaders for the telephone campaign in California. Attachment CONFIDENTIAL COMMITTEE TO RE-ELECT THE PRESIDENT TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN GROUP RECRUITER'S HANDBOOK Committee for the Re-Election of the President TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN OVERALL PLAN THE GOAL: A concentrated phone campaign to locate the voters who support the President and remind them of the importance of their vote on Primary Election Day, June 6. THE PURPOSE: To show enthusiastic volunteer support for the President. To involve and develop a corps of volunteers for both the Primary and the General Election. To remind Republicans of the importance of the California Primary in the eyes of the nation and increase the Nixon voter turnout by urging Republicans who favor the President to vote in the Primary on June 6. THE PLAN: Telephone Centers will be set up in several locations throughout the state with ten phones per center. For twelve hours each day, six days each week, between May 1 and June 6, volunteers will report to their local Phone Centers for the following shifts: 9:00am to 1:00pm; 12:30pm to 4:30pm; 4:00pm to 6:30pm; 6:00pm to 9:00pm. (Except Saturday: 10:00am to 1:00pm; 12:30pm to 4:30pm.) The weekday shifts will be covered primarily by women phoners. For evening and Saturday shifts, great effort will be made to recruit men phoners who, because they are accustomed to conducting business on the phone, will be very effective on the President's behalf. THE THREE STEPS OF THE TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN Step 1: Phone calls to registered Republicans (May 1 to May 31) Purpose: To locate Republican voters who favor the President and ask them to help in the Primary Campaign. To locate Republicans who are opposed or undecided about the President, and record that information so that they are not contacted again before the Primary. Step 2: Follow-up Calls to Republicans who agreed to work (May 3 to May 31) Purpose: To schedule Nixon volunteers for work in the Primary or, if enough volunteers are already scheduled, to ask them to help later in the General Election. Step 3: Get-Out-the-Vote Calls to all GOPs who favor the President (June 1 to June 6) Purpose: To assure a Nixon landslide in the California Primary June 6th! Committee for the Re-Election of the President YOUR JOB AS GROUP RECRUITER OBJECTIVE To fill, on a shift-by-shift, day-by-day basis, as many volunteer slots as possible before the calls to voters begin and the phone campaign progresses. The aim is to fill all of the coming week's time slots plus as many others as you can. PROCEDURE GROUP RECRUITER SESSIONS Group Recruiter Sessions have proved to be the most effective means of getting as many volunteers as possible, as quickly and efficiently as possible. Groups of five to ten recruiters meet at the Phone Center for either day or evening shifts. The Group Recruiters call not only people they know personally, but also call names from various civic and social clubs such as the Chamber of Commerce, Rotary, AAUW, Church, Country Club, Bar Association, Garden Clubs, etc. When using these lists, no name is crossed off until the person has agreed to volunteer. If someone refuses, a check mark is placed by his name. At the end of recruiting sessions, all source lists are returned to Phone Center Chairman. RECRUITMENT OF WOMEN FOR WEEKDAY PHONING The President deserves effective and enthusiastic volunteers working on his behalf. Women active in club and civic projects are naturals for daytime phoning. At the same time, don't forget to invite friends who may not be civic leaders, but who would welcome the opportunity to help the President. Senior citizens and college students should also be recruited, particularly for the afternoon and evening shifts. RECRUITING MEN FOR EVENING AND SATURDAY PHONING Executives accustomed to doing business on the phone will be very effective on the President's behalf. and great effort should be made to find and recruit these people. (If wives want to come, too, fine!) RECRUITER'S JOB Face facts. Most people are busy. They are not sitting at home waiting to be asked to come to the Phone Center to work. YOUR JOB is to let them know how urgently their help is needed and to persuade them to take part in the campaign to re-elect the President. GOAL OF THE TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN To show enthusiastic volunteer support for the President and increase the voter turnout in the Primary Election. VOLUNTEER JOBS TO BE FILLED BY RECRUITERS 1. Phone Captains: Volunteers who agree to be phoners themselves and also bring two (or more) other phoners for a given shift(s). In other words, you are really recruiting a phoner and a recruiter rolled into one. 2. Phoners: Volunteers who come to the Phone Center to call Republican voters on behalf of President Nixon for one or more shifts. 3. Clerical Volunteers: Volunteers who are responsible for transferring missing phone numbers to the IBM cards which the phoners use in making their calls. They are also responsible for any other clerical work necessary to put the phoning and mailing lists in order. VOLUNTEER SHIFTS Weekdays -- (#1) 9 to 1; (#2) 12:30 to 4:30; (#3) 4 to 6:30; (#4) 6 to 9 Saturdays -- (#1) 10 to 1; (#2) 12:30 to 4:30 ARRANGEMENTS The Phone Center is located at: Phone: Parking, coffee, and refreshments available. FORMS TO USE VOLUNTEER WORK SHEETS Fill out completely one of these forms for every person you call whether the person agrees to help or not. Be sure to circle calendar dates and shifts agreed to by the volunteer. If the volunteer is a Phone Captain, be sure to indicate how many phoners he has agreed to bring. If the person refuses to help, check "Refused" and jot down the reason in the space provided. REMEMBER YOUR ABC'S A = Ask for enough! Will you be a Phone Captain and bring 3 people for one of the shifts on (mention date)? If not: B = Bargain down. Will you come yourself to phone for two or three shifts? How about this Monday and Wednesday? C = "Certainly you'll come" for at least one shift. How about this Thursday or Friday? You'd rather not phone? Well, we need clerical volunteers, too. Which would be better, Thursday or Friday? D = Don't tell anyone they can call from home. We can't let phone lists out of the Phone Center. Group phoning is more effective; generates enthusiasm; gets the job done. E = Establish Deadline with each Phone Captain for recruiting his phoners. Tell him that three working days before he and his volunteers are to come in, he will be called back and asked for their names, addresses, and phone numbers. For deadlines, notice the letters "DL" and the date on the Volunteer Work Sheet, Calendar Section.

DL 6/2 COMMITTEE to RE-ELECT the PRESIDENT TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN ORIENTATION KIT for NIXON LEADERS Committee for the Re-Election of the President TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN OVERALL PLAN THE GOAL: A concentrated phone campaign to locate the voters who support the President and remind them of the importance of their vote on Primary Election Day, June 6. THE PURPOSE: To show enthusiastic volunteer support for the President. To involve and develop a corps of volunteers for both the Primary and the General Election. To remind Republicans of the importance of the California Primary in the eyes of the nation and increase the Nixon voter turnout by urging Republicans who favor the President to vote in the Primary on June 6. THE PLAN: Telephone Centers will be set up in several locations throughout the state with ten phones per center. For twelve hours each day, six days each week, between May 1 and June 6, volunteers will report to their local Phone Centers for the following shifts: 9:00am to 1:00pm; 12:30pm to 4:30pm; 4:00pm to 6:30pm; 6:00pm to 9:00pm. (Except Saturday: 10:00am to 1:00pm; 12:30pm to 4:30pm.) The weekday shifts will be covered primarily by women phoners. For evening and Saturday shifts, great effort will be made to recruit men phoners who, because they are accustomed to conducting business on the phone, will be very effective on the President's behalf. THE THREE STEPS OF THE TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN Step 1: Phone calls to registered Republicans (May 1 to May 31) Purpose: To locate Republican voters who favor the President and ask them to help in the Primary Campaign. To locate Republicans who are opposed or undecided about the President, and record that information so that they are not contacted again before the Primary. Step 2: Follow-up Calls to Republicans who agreed to work (May 3 to May 31) Purpose: To schedule Nixon volunteers for work in the Primary or, if enough volunteers are already scheduled, to ask them to help later in the General Election. Step 3: Get-Out-the-Vote Calls to all GOPs who favor the President (June 1 to June 6) Purpose: To assure a Nixon landslide in the California Primary June 6th!

Also responsible for any other clerical work necessary to put the phoning and mailing lists in order. With the lists in order, phoners can spend all their time phoning and make the maximum number of calls. PHONERS Volunteers who come to the Phone Center to call registered Republicans on behalf of President Nixon. For six days each week between May 1 and June 6, phoners report to the Phone Center for one or more of the following shifts: 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, 12:30 pm to 4:30 pm, 4:00 pm to 6:30 pm, 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. PHONE CAPTAINS (one per two or three phones) Volunteers who agree to be phoners themselves, and who, in addition, agree to bring two or more other volunteers for a given shift or shifts. DAILY SUPERVISORS (two per shift) Assist the Phone Center Chairman in as many ways as possible. Arrive early for shift in order to greet workers as they arrive. Make sure every volunteer has a name tag. Begin creating congenial atmosphere by introducing the volunteers to each other, offering coffee, etc. As per request and need of the Phone Center Chairman, assist in supervising and training the phoners and/or the clerical volunteers. See that volunteers have the supplies they need and are doing their jobs correctly. Keep computer cards in order, answering questions and help the work flow smoothly. Keep the room straight and coffee cups cleared especially after each shift. In short: help keep everyone happy and productive and express to the volunteers how much their help is appreciated. Note: Ideally, supervisors are people willing to serve for one or more shifts on one or more days of the week for all six weeks of the Telephone Campaign RECRUITMENT COORDINATORS (suggested 6 to 12 per Phone Center to cover from 9am to 4:30 pm each phoning day, longer if possible.) Responsible for coordinating the recruitment of supervisors, phoners and clerical workers. Three working days before phoners are to report for work, calls Phone Captains to get names and phone numbers of volunteers they've recruited posting them in the Master Recruitment Book and in the Volunteer Notebook. Also calls all phoners and clerical workers scheduled for the next day to remind them of the hours we're counting on them to be at the Phone Center. If any vacancies occur or exist, confer with the Phone Center Chairman, and if asked, recruits replace- ments. Keeps recruitment forms current working from the Master List in the Master Recruitment Book. Note: Ideally, Recruitment Coordinators are people willing to serve one full day per week for all six weeks of the Telephone Recruitment Campaign. GROUP RECRUITERS The "advance wave" people who come in, starting now, not to call voters but to recruit the volunteers needed to fill all the slots in the Phone Center. PHONE CENTER CHAIRMAN The Phone Center Chairman is responsible for the entire operation of the Phone Center. This includes pre-campaign recruiting, daily recruiting, training and supervision of volunteers, all record- keeping, and seeing that the Center meets its quota of 1,500 completed calls per day. The secret of success is to involve as many people as possible, train them well and ask them to give more time and assume more responsibility. In this way the Phone Center Chairman can then delegate many assignments to other volunteers, while maintaining overall responsibility for per- formance. She sees that the Headquarters atmosphere is warm, friendly, positive and constructive so that volunteers enjoy working for President Nixon's re-election and want to come back to work again.

The importance of recruiting cannot be over-emphasized nor can the importance of accurate record-keeping, as the only way to keep track of recruiting progress. Involving the volunteers to begin with calling them to confirm their schedules posting them to the proper sheet. all of this is essential if the Phone Center is to function effectively. To accomplish this, each Phone Center is provided with a "Master Recruitment Book" (yellow) which has index tabs for each day of the Telephone Campaign. This book contains forms which have been designed to fit every need in recruitment record-keeping. The forms provide a day-to-day record of all leaders and workers who are scheduled for shifts at the Center. As a planning tool, the "Master Recruitment Book" shows at-a-glance which daily job slots have been filled and which have not been filled. Thus, Phone Center leaders can spot possible recruitment problems in advance and concentrate their efforts on filling the time slots most crucial to the Phone Center's on-going success. On the following pages are samples of the forms described below: Master List of Supervisors (white) There is room to post all Supervisors' names for the entire campaign. Master List of Recruitment Coordinators (yellow) Again, there is room to post the names of all Recruitment Coordinators for the entire campaign. Volunteer Work Sheet (white) Instructions for completing this form are on the back of sheet. A separate Work Sheet is filled out for every person asked to volunteer. The information is then transferred to the appropriate Master List in the "Master Recruitment Book". All Work Sheets are then filed alphabetically in the "Volunteer Notebook" and updated as volunteers sign up for more shifts. Master List of Phoners (blue & white) One for every day of the campaign, filed behind the day-of- the-week tabs. Master List of Clerical Volunteers (green & white) One for every day of the campaign, also filed behind the day-of-the-week tabs.

MOTIVATION The quota system results in increased production in a positive, spirited, and cooperative atmosphere. People like having a tangible goal. It steps up the tempo and gives the volunteers on each shift the incentive to make "just one more call". 2. BAROMETER The other equally important result is that the Quota-Tally-Report system fills the very real need of leadership at all levels to have a quick, accurate measure of progress of individual Phone Centers and of the Telephone Campaign as a whole. By assimilating and analyzing the information received from every Center every day, problems can be solved before they mushroom and the overall campaign is kept on schedule. Within every Phone Center, the Quota-Tally-Report system aids the Phone Center Chairman in the same way. In California, using Phone Centers of ten phones each throughout the state, the quota is 1,500 completed calls per day per Center. Ideally, it is suggested that individual shift quotas be set at 400 calls per shift in order to not only assure that the Center reaches or exceeds its daily quotas, but also to give each shift's volunteers a greater sense of accomplishment and challenge. Each shift's volunteers can be made very aware of the quota to be met by posting wall signs throughout the shift to measure progress. ATTENTION SHIFT # 2 !! Total Daily Quota 1,500 Shift Quota 400 Calls completed at 4PM 297 CALLS TO GO in 1/2 hour 103 only 11 more calls per phoner and we're ahzad of Quota! By tallying shift-by-shift, day-by-day, the calls will be made on schedule the campaign will progress. and the many volunteers participating will experience a very real sense of accomplishment. On the following page is a sample of the Daily Tally Sheet which is the tool that makes the Quota-Tally-Report system possible.

Opinion AS IS THE case with Sen. Hubert Humphrey. Gov. George Wallace has maintained a low, but fairly stable rating among collegians. In this most recent Campus Opinion survey. Interviewer S also asked about the potential candidate the students would least like to see elected to the Presidency. As many would have guessed, Alabama's Gov. Wallace, much more so than other candidates. wants for a favorable image among the nation's young voters. Perhaps surprisingly, students attending schools in the South were as negative in their response to the Alabama governor as were students in other regions. Los Angeles' Mayor Sain Yorty, Sen. Hubert Humphrey, and Indiana's Sen. Vance Hartke, who has now quit the race, were likewise often mentioned as least desired candidates. THE MOST NOTABLE changes in ratings over the past year belong to President Nixon and Sen. Edmund Muskie. In the case of the junior senator from Maine. the trend is not at all heartening. Muskie's ratings among the collegian portion of young voters have slipped from 31.4 per cent in January of "il to 21 per cent in November of '71, and now to 17.6 per cent in the latest reading. On the other hand. P re e nt Nixon's marks have elevated from 14.5 per cent in January of 71 and 18.7 per cent in November of '71 to 26.1 per cent this m 0 n figure significantly larger than the number on the nation's campuses who identify with the Republican party. The reader should bear In mind that Democrats still far outweigh R epu b 11 ca ns on the nation's college campuses and that. while President Nixon's ratings are indeed 1 ni In = among younger voters. his relatively lofty rating here is owing to the fact that those students who are not in favor of his re-election are splitting their pr fe renc S among at least five strong Democratic contenders. Earlier in March. interviewers for the national Campus Opinion survey talked with 010 students from & representative cross section of 44 colleges and universities. They asked the students: "WHICH ONE or the following potential candidates would you most like to see elected may HFU Wallace assured a crowd of 1500 in Kokomo many workers who left their jobs that the primary was important.

George is spending $75-100, 000 and sent out 3 M letters in last-ditch effort to get out the vote, but Dem chief Vance predicts a runoff as he says Alabamians have had it with the Gov's perennial candidacies which have left the state gov't in "virtual shambles. 11 Wallace retorted that when he's in the state, the same people want him to leave what he'll have to do, he said, is start singing "What's the reason I ain't pleasin' you?" The Gov. sàid They're it's just anti-Wallace sentiment and he'll win. Wallace is expected to receive 50-65% of Tenn. primary vote on May 4. Tho not on the ballot as he missed the deadline, a write-in effort will now be mounted for Wallace in Calif reports Newsweek. 9 of Nevadas' Dem delegates are firm for McGovern, 3 say they'll in MCG back HHH, and the rest are uncommitted. A Rhode Island poll votes for May 23 primary showed McGovern leading with 27%, Muskie 19%, EMK 18%, HHH 12%. Wallace rose from 3 to 8% in recent weeks. ABC film of Wallace emphasized he'll have to be 1st in Ind. to claim victory no more of the "I wasn't here enough" business will do. So it's a special challenge for him but lots is also going for him: Southern Ind. is akin to the South itself; HHH has been diverted to Ohio; anti-Establishment sentiment. McGovern was endorsed by Cincy. Mayor Luken. And UAW leader Warren Davis also endorsed McGovern when the Sen. campaigned in Cleveland. ABC film of McGovern again, as he did in Wisc, going to the strength of his opposition blue collar and blacks. If he gets 50 of 153 delegates he feels his momentum will be sustained, said ABC. Favorable NBC profile on McGovern who comes to Ohio with image of man who has come from behind; a man who touches people. In Ohio he has found "excited crowds who believe he can win." Reporter Mackin said previous polls have always underestimated McGovern and if the pattern repeats itself, he should close fast. McGovern, said the reporter, feels HHH has had his chance.

There are now 35 such states and Nixon campaign sources say the rest will be announced shortly. As governors, they represent the pinnacle of state leadership, and the polls indicate that as enthusiastic supporters of the President they represent only the tip of the Nixon iceberg. The latest poll shows that President Nixon enjoys warm support among 83 per cent of the voters who classify themselves as Republicans. And other polls show the President leading all possible Democratic challengers nationwide. The governors leading state Nixon campaigns represent a cross section of American society and geography. Two, Reagan and Rockefeller, are chief executives in the nation's two largest states. Love of Colorado occupies the governor's chair in one of the least densely populated states in the (more) GOVERNORS BACK NIXON 2-2-2-2 country. Cahill of New Jersey leads one of the most densely populated states. Dunn, who serves as Co-chairman with U.S. Senator William Brock, is a border state governor. Their states span the continent from the east coast to the west. What unites them are the problems of government and a commitment to President Nixon as the best man to solve those problems. They are virtually unanimous in citing the President's accomplishments in building the foundations for prosperity without war. President Nixon, says Colorado's Governor Love, "is in the process of moving this nation to a peacetime era of prosperity and winding down the war as swiftly as is consistent with sound policy." Reagan, announcing on February 4 that he would head the President's drive in California, called the President "the man who has wound down the war, reformed the draft, balanced the Supreme Court and come to grips with the hard, knotty problems of inflation and unemployment " New Jersey's Governor Cahill said that the President "has done an outstanding job. "He is carrying this country into one of its greatest eras," the governor said. And in states where they are not actually leading the President's re-election drive, other Republican governor's have been equally determined in their support for the President. Governor Dunn believes that under President Nixon's leadership, "the nation has developed a sense of steadiness and serenity." Michigan's progressive Governor William G. Milliken, this year's chairman of the Republican Governor's Association meeting in White Sulphur Springs, (more) GOVERNORS BACK NIXON 3-3-3-3 West Virginia the first week in May, has said that "President Nixon's courageous and innovative leadership in both domestic and foreign affairs is earning him a place in history among our most effective Presidents. " At first glance, this kind of broad-based support among the state chief executives might look like merely one of the benefits of incumbency. But, as one veteran Washington observer notes, support for a sitting President does not come automatically. "Remember Lyndon Johnson, he tells reporters. "He never could have marshalled such support if he had decided to run again." What all this means to a badly-splintered Democratic Party is not clear. But it would seem to indicate that whomever the Democrats nominate at their convention is going to face an insurmountable task in mobilizing his party. Indeed, the results of the first few Democratic primaries only reinforce the view, wide-spread in Washington and in state capitals, that the Democratic Party has failed to produce a leader of national stature. "Everybody thought that after Johnson left the White House the cause of the Democrats' divisions would go away," a Capitol Hill veteran of many years told an audience recently. "It hasn't happened." - 30 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON 65/ Date: TO: Ball FROM: GORDON STRACHAN Here's how a light organization disk! is un Committee for the Re-election of the President MEMORANDUM May 5, 1972 CONFIDENTIAL bcc: Mr. Gordon C. Strachan MEMORANDUM FOR THE STAFF FROM: ROBERT C. ODLE, JR. SUBJECT: Office Procedures While this memo is directed primarily to new members of the staff and to our secretaries, it should also be helpful to other members of the professional staff as well. Please feel free to comment on these procedures and offer suggestions as to how they might be improved. 1. All new staff members should see 2. Rob Odle in Suite 472 in order to be placed on the payroll; receive authorization to hire a secretary; receive your room assignment; and be placed on the telephone list, and in the Staff Directory; b. Judy Hoback in Suite 272 to fill out application, payroll, and Blue Cross forms; C. Martha Duncan in Suite 372 for office supplies, etc.; d. Connie Santarelli in Suite 372 if you require a secre- tary and authorization to hire one has been given; e. Jim McCord in Suite 372 for a staff pin and staff badge (which will contain your photograph); f. The Mail Service personnel in Suite 372 to introduce yourself; and g. Our telephone operator, Ruby Youngs, in Suite 372, and our Committee receptionist, Kathy O'Melia, in 372, to introduce yourself. 2. All requests for office supplies, typewriters, typewriter repair, business cards, stationery, etc., should be given in writing to Martha Duncan, who is located on the third floor in the office directly behind the receptionist. -2- Martha also receives requests for office furniture, office equipment, telephones, telephone repair, as well as subscriptions to publications, books, etc. When the need arises for any work to be performed by First National Bank Building personnel such as burned- out lights or special cleaning, please place your request through Martha and she will contact the building for you. The Building has asked that this be done so that a single point of contact can be established in the office for Building personnel. 3. All secretaries should be on hand no later than 8:30 a.m. each morning. The people with whom we work in Washington start by that time and we should as well. While we will have no time cards, leave cards, etc., se- cretaries should check with their bosses prior to taking a day or more off, and with me as well prior to taking three or more days off. This latter requirement is to insure that the office is properly staffed on days just before and just after a holiday. Requests for vacation time should be approved by secretaries' bosses and by me. 4. Where two secretaries work in close proximity to each other's telephone, they should alternate their lunch hours so that their telephones remain covered during the noon hour. Please establish a "buddy-system" so that your phones are covered at all times. This is very important. 5. Our driver, Carl Foster, is responsible for driving staff members to and from official appointments. His driving schedule is coordinated by Vicki Chern and all requests for driving services should be placed through her. Carl should not be asked to perform other duties except dri- ving unless approved specifically by Vicki. All office projects such as mail delivery, serving coffee at meetings, etc., will usually be performed by our staff messenger, Nick Bungato, but such requests should first be placed through Martha who coordinates his schedule. Martha may have Nick perform the requested service, or she might make other arrangements to have it done. Please do not ask Nick directly. 6. Mail destined for another floor, the RNC, White House, or outside, should be placed in the appropriate box where it will be picked up and distributed. The Mail Service will normally be open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Mail will be sorted and delivered according to the schedule below. Outgoing and interoffice -3- mail will be picked up during these mail runs. If out- going mail is to be picked up from your desk, there must be an outgoing box clearly marked as such. Boxes are available from Martha Duncan. Please stagger large outgoing shipments of mail in order to allow us to decrease the amount of mail to be handled at the end of the day. Mail will picked up and delivered on all floors according to the following schedule: 7:30 a.m., between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m., 12:00 noon, 2:00 p.m., 4:00 p.m., 6:30 p.m. (pick up only). There is a slot in the door to the Mail Room for the after- hours placement of any outgoing or interoffice mail. Any mail dropped off in this manner will be attended to early the next morning. The Mail Service will be open from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturdays and will be closed on Sundays. No regular mail runs will be scheduled for Saturdays; however, if you plan on working on Saturday and would like to have your mail delivered, please notify the Mail Service either Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. Only those persons assigned to the Mail Service are autho- rized to meter mail. If you have any outgoing mail to be metered, please leave it in one of the designated outgoing boxes on the various floors or bring it to the Mail Room on the third floor. The mail pick up and delivery schedule is designed SO that any outgoing mail will leave the building within 45 minutes. Personal mail should not be metered. 8c, 11¢, and 60¢ stamps are on sale in the Mail Room. Mail Service personnel are on hand to wrap and mail parcels. If you have any parcels to be wrapped or mailed please bring them to the third floor or call the Mail Room to arrange to have someone pick them up. Please have the address label ready inasmuch as the address is necessary to deter- mine the correct postage. Also, please state whether the parcel is to be sent first-class, airmail, or parcel post. The Mail Service can send registered, insured, and certi- fied letters and parcels. Return receipts will be provided for all registered and certified items. Be sure that your name is on the item's return address label so that we know to whom to return the return receipt. Please mark on the -4- item how it is to be sent and in the case of insured mail, how much it should be insured for. The item will be ship- ped the same day and a post office receipt will be provi- ded. We must be absolutely certain that we do not leave out mail overnight. The final mail pick up will be at 6:30 p.m. After 6:30 p.m., if it is urgent that you send some mail, either Martha Duncan or one of our security men will make arrangements to see that the mail goes out. Otherwise, any mail that is left out will be considered a security violation and will be locked up overnight. It will then be necessary to claim your mail in the secu- rity office in the morning. The RNC messenger will deliver RNC mail addressed to the Committee, and pick up Committee mail addressed to the RNC, twice daily -- at 11:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. The messenger will stop only in the Mail Room on the third floor. Any mail you want picked up should be waiting for the messen- ger in the Mail Room. Contact Mail Service if you have an immediate delivery for the RNC. Someone there will make arrangements for the RNC messenger to pick it up. If you have questions concerning registered, insured, or certified mail, please call the Mail Room and someone there will be able to help you. A mail box located at the Seventeenth Street and Pennsyl- vania Avenue entrance to the Old Executive Office Building, marked "Box 1", is where all mail originating at the White House and destined for Committee staff members is left for Nick Bungato to pick up. Should someone at the White House want to know what address to use on an envelope coming here, tell them to use your name and "Box 1, The White House." The fact that such a mailbox exists is confidential information and should remain SO. 7. All requests for use of the fourth floor conference room should be placed through Jeanne Mason who schedules it; the third floor conference room is scheduled by Teri Anne Thayer. It is the responsibility of those using the con- ference rooms to clean them up afterwards. 8. Whoever serves more than a half pot of coffee should after- wards brew a fresh pot. The coffee is free but it's up to everyone to help brew it. -5- 9. Secretaries are asked to participate, on a rotation basis, during Kathy O'Melia's lunch hour as Committee receptionist; and on Saturdays, to answer the main telephone as well. However, because of the large number of secretaries, this should not be a great burden. Kathy maintains the rotation lists and will let you know well in advance when your next lucky day will be. 10. No secretary should ever talk to anyone from the media about anything relating to the Committee's functions. Simply use the line that dealing with the media is not your func- tion, but you'd be happy to refer them to one of our spokes- men: Van Shumway, Tom Girard or Ann Dore. This would also apply to talking to media representatives about the Commit- tee's operations in social situations or during non-business hours. Simply refer all inquiries to Van's office. 11. Under no circumstances should we ever use White House stationery in any way at this Committee. Even if we are to draft letters for signature by White House officials, we should draft those letters on plain paper and let them be retyped at the White House. 12. Inputs for the weekly report to Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Hal- deman are due in my office by the close of business each Monday so that the report can be sent on Tuesday. Please remember that the President sees each weekly report. Con- tact Sylvia Panarites if you have questions about the weekly report. 13. Xerox telecopiers are in use for receiving and transmitting written messages by local or long distance telephone. One is located in the Press Department and is supervised by Laura Underwood. Nancy Crouch schedules the telecopier in the Polling Department and the third machine is managed by Sue LeDonne in Bob Morgan's office. 14. Whenever a professional member of the staff is traveling, he should leave telephone numbers where he can be reached at all times, day and night, with his secretary, and also with Bob Reisner, who will serve as a central contact point. In this way, when someone on our staff or at the White House wishes to reach a staff member, Bob will have the information at hand. This also applies to week- ends. In order not to place too great a burden on Bob, it would be much appreciated if your notification to him of your telephone numbers while traveling could be in writing. 15. No one from this Committee should ever approach anyone -6- currently employed at the White House about the possibility of: moving from the White House to a staff position here. This would apply to professional as well as secretarial members of the White House staff, and even to people on the White House staff who have expressed an interest in leaving regardless of whether they get a job here or who have initiated conversation with someone here about the possibility of their moving here. Should an exception to this policy seem necessary, please check with me or Jeb Magruder. White House and Old Executive Office Building passes are not available to Committee members. Please do not approach anyone at the White House about obtaining a White llouse or OEOB pass. 16. While Martha Duncan is ultimately in charge of keeping the xeroxes running, please check your key operator before calling Martha. Key operators are: Second Floor: Maureen Devlin Third Floor: Pat Strunk Laura Underwood Fourth Floor: Sylvia Panarites Fifth Floor: Judy Myers Eighth Floor: Roni Haggart Ninth Floor: Pat Cochran Please use the xerox machines which are located on your own floor except in an emergency. Four machines are lo- cated on the third floor: a small Xerox in the Press De- partment; a small IBM in Personnel; and a large Xerox 7000 with a 50-bin sorter and a small 3M in the Supply Room. The Committee always uses standard government size paper -- 8" X 10 1/2" rather than 8 1/2" X 11". Please use the smaller government size paper in all cases -- as the White House does. If paper other than this size is used in the xerox machine, please change it after each use so that the standard govern- ment size paper is always in the machine for the next person. --7- 17. All requests for jobs, staff positions, offers of volunteer assistance, etc., should be referred to my office. Cenerally, we insist on seeing a resume before interviewing anyone. The line to use on the phone is "please send a resume, and we 11 be in touch. In general, please try to discourage people from seeking employment (except for secretaries with shorthand which we always like to intervicw). Volun- teers should also be referred to my office. 18. Secretaries new to the Washington area or to politics might want to read such books as Theodore White's "The Making of the President, 1968" and the recent book by Allan Drury and Fred Maroon on the workings of the White House. 19. There are two automatic letter writing machines (an IBM MTST and an IBM Mag Card) in the rear of the Press Depart- ment. Please check with Pat Strunk before using them. The purpose of these machines is to speed up the writing of several letters with the same content or a single lengthy document. They are available to everyone. 20. There is nothing more important here than proper security measures. We must assume, and have reason to believe, that the opposition will attempt to penetrate our offices, and that is the reason for the elaborate security measures we have taken and carefully enforce. The following guide- lines should be observed by all: a. All wastepaper that you would not want someone from the "outside" to assemble and read should be put through one of our shredders --- there is a shredding machine on each floor. Many staff members find it convenient to put all materials to be shredded in a desk drawer reserved for that purpose and at the end of the day put the contents of that drawer through the machine. The general rule is: if you don't want to see it on the front page of tomorrow morning's newspaper, shred it. b. The word "Confidential" and "Confidential/Eyes Only" should appear at the top of any memo you wouldn't want publicly circulated. This alerts other staff members and our security people to handle the document with care. Here again, if you wouldn't want to see it in a newspaper, mark it "Confidential." C. The following check should be made at the end of each working day: 1. All papers must be removed from the tops of desks, -8-- files, tables, etc., and locked up in your desk or files. No papers should be left out overnight. Our security force inspects each desk, file cabinet, and office during the evening to make cer- tain that all papers are locked in them. Any paper marked "Confidential" which is left out overnight, or put in an unlocked desk, will be taken by the guards and given to me the next morning. 2. No mail should be left out -- the contents of "In and Out" boxes and documents under such boxes must be locked up. 3. All calendars, list finders, etc., must be locked up. 4. Checks should be made to make certain no documents have slipped between the desks and the walls or under the desks. 5. As a fire precaution, typewriters and xeroxes and other electric office machines should be checked to make certain they are off. The last secretary in each area to leave each night should check the xerox she uses to make certain it is off. The same rule applies to the coffee machine she uses. d. Please report all security problems, violations, ques- tions, etc., to me, or in my absence, James McCord, our security officer. Also, your observations and suggestions for improving office security will be greatly appreciated. If we remember that we, as individuals and as the Committee, are prime targets for the opposition, there should be no problem. e. Please check the xerox after each use to make cer- tain you have not left an original on the xerox glass. This often happens. f. Our security people have asked us to keep all the vertical blinds drawn across windows, particularly in rooms which might be photographed from buildings across the street. This is very important in the Press Office area of the third floor and the Pennsylvania Avenue side of the building. 21. All requests for the reproduction and/or mailing of materials from the Committee must be cleared through the office of Van Shumway. 22. Leslye Arsht is receiving all items regularly printed by the research division of the Republican National Committee. Thus, the RNC has one contact point at our Committee for research and all requests should be directed to Leslye -9- in the Press Department who, in turn, will distribute the documents to staff members. Research requests should be channeled either to Leslye Arsht or Biba Wagner. Biba deals with state-oriented research including census and voter data. On the other hand, Leslye handles what might be called an information retrieval system specifically dealing with issues from the Administration's point of view, and also opposition information. Briefly, Biba coordinates the state-level research and Leslye the national. 23. Our telephone system works this way: a. Incoming calls made to 333-0920 destined for you will come to you from Ruby Youngs (through your secretary when you wish) on your branch number. b. All outgoing calls should be made on your three digit branch line. Dial "9", wait for a dial tone, and then dial your number. Do not use your seven-digit lines for outgoing calls. All outgoing long distance calls can be made on your branch line by using the WATS lines. Dial "80", wait for the dial tone, then dial the area code and the number. If "80" is busy, dial "87", wait for the dial tone, then dial the area code and the number. "80" gives you access to our unlimited WATS lines; "87" to the limited. In order to save the Committee money, when you receive a collect long-distance telephone call, and you expect the call to be of some duration (over 5 minutes) it would be helpful to get the caller's number and to immediately return the telephone call on one of our WATS lines. This could save the Committee a great deal of money in the months ahead. C. Other staff members can be reached by dialing their three-digit number on your branch line. d. Ruby can be reached by dialing "0" on your branch line. e. To transfer a call, depress your switchhook once and wait for Ruby to answer. f. Dial "7" if you wish to make a conference call and wait for instructions from Ruby. -10- Should you hear a "beep" tone on one of your three-digit lines, it means someone is holding for you. It does not mean your telephone is "bugged." The switchboard is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 10:00 p.m. and on Saturdya from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Staff members who have private lines should give these lines out to callers SO that calls come directly to your secretaries and relieve the burden on Ruby. This is very important -- our telephone system is not equipped for all incoming calls to come through 333-0920. 24. If you have the need for volunteers either on a one-shot or regular basis, please contact Jeannie Mitchell on the third floor. Give Jeannie all the particulars, e.g., when the volunteer is needed, how long, the kind of work, what skills if any are needed, etc. Have the work ready when the volunteer arrives. Above all, remember that the volunteer is helping; re not helping the volunteer. Also keep in mind that your volunteer often may be the wife of a Cabinet member of White House official. All the volunteers which Jeannie provides you with have been cleared by our Security Office. However, if you plan to use a volunteer not obtained through Jeannie, please check with Jeannie or Jim McCord first. No volunteer may be used until he has been cleared by the Security Office. Checking with Jeannie or Jim first will prevent the embar- tassment of having to tell the volunteer to stop coming in until his security check is obtained. Jim will need each volunteer's name, address, place of birth and date of birth. Please do not ask the volunteer to begin working until such time as Mr. McCord has checked back with you and cleared the individual. This is very important and this procedure must be followed. 25. All requests for photographs, photos of the President and the First Family, pictures for your office wall, etc., must be made in writing to Bill Parish in the Press Depart- ment. Please do not call the White House Photo Office. Instead, call Bill Parish. 26. Inter-office mail and memoranda destined for Mr. Mitchell should not be taken to Mudge Rose in Suite 400 but rather placed in envelopes addressed to Mr. Mitchell in Suite 400. Our messengers will then deliver mail several times each day to him on a regular schedule. In this way we can avoid interrupting the business of the law firm any more than is necessary. In an emergency, deliver something -11- addressed to Mr. Mitchell to Sylvia Panarites in Suite 472. 27 We have made arrangements with the four Marriott hotels and the Mayflower and Statler Hilton Hotels for Committee guests who are staying in Washington. The rates run from $19 to $24 and no Committee staff member or guest will be reimbursed beyond $2.4 per night for a hotel room in Wash- ington. The Essex House in New York is also available to Committee staffers at $19 per night. Please check with Sylvia Panarites for details. 28. There has been some confusion with respect to our Commit- tee's name. While it used to be "Citizens for," and there was some discussion of changing it to "Committee to Re-elect," the official name will remain "Committee for the Re-election of the President, " not "Committee to Re-elect the President. Thus, our state committees and voter bloc groups should all follow this form, e.g., "California Committee for the 11 "Manicurists Committee for the , " etc. 29. Division heads are responsible for the issuance of pur- chase orders and check requests. a. Copies of the purchase orders should be distributed as follows: Copy 1 (original white) -- sent to the vendor Copy 2 (yellow) -- sent to Odle who will then approve it and send to the Controller Copy 3 (pink) -- sent to Odle for his files Copy 4 (goldenrod) --- keep for your records When the bills come in which correspond to the purchase orders, they can be sent directly to the controller if they do not exceed the dollar figures in the purchase order. Should they exceed those figures, the bills should be sent to Odle. Always make certain that the purchase order number and your approval appears on the bills. b. In those cases where a purchase order cannot be issued in advance, or where one would not be practical, a check request form should be sent with the bill to Odle. Leave the "Charge Check to Account Number" line blank. Your signature should appear in the "Approved by" line. -12- Purchase order and check request forms are available from Sylvia Panarites in my office. Specific instructions for filling out purchase orders and check requests are attached. 30. Information on expense accounts is attached. The Commit- tee has no credit cards of any kind issued in its name. In general, the policy is to be reimbursed by the Committee for all expenses which you incur. Judy Hoback in the Finance Division can give you expense report forms and explain their use. All completed reports should be sent to my office for approval (note: this does not apply to the Finance and Political Divisions) All expense account reports must be approved first by your Division head and then by me. Any secretary working at her boss' request later than 8:30 p.m. may charge the Committee $2 for a dinner allowance. Any secretary working later than 9:00 p.m. may charge the Committee for taxi fare home providing that she did not have a car at work that day. 31. Forms to be used in letters and memoranda are attached. Please follow these forms SO that Committee communications have uniformity to them. 32. For "minor medical emergencies, " Martha Duncan has in her third floor office a complete supply of first aid bandages, supplies, aspirin, etc. A sofa is also available for secretaries who do not feel well. In addition, a "community" bulletin board is located in Martha's office. 33. From time to time we are able to secure seats in the Presidential Boxes at the Kennedy Center. Should you wish tickets for these boxes, for persons who merit them because of their efforts on behalf of this Committee, please contact Bill Minshall. It would be appreciated if you would tell Bill, two weeks before the performance, the names, addresses and titles of those persons you wish to invite. Should you desire, these persons will be called and extended a formal infi- tation to attend the performance at the Kennedy Center. They will be told that the invitation comes at your behest and on behalf of this Committee. Bill Minshall also has information on future schedules at the Kennedy Center. SAMPLE Committee for the Re-election of the President MEMORANDUM May 5, 1972 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM FOR: MR. H. R. HALDEMAN FROM: JOHN N. SMITH SUBJECT: Memoranda This is the form for all memoranda addressed to members of our staff, people at the White House, and the RNC. Memorandum paper, rather than stationery, should be used. If the memo is Confidential, it should be so marked at the top and bottom of each page. The word "Mr.", "Mrs.", or "Miss" should precede the addressee's name, but not the writer's. Mr. Haldeman, for example, is always "Mr. H. R. Haldeman." Middle initials should always be used in both lines. The names of both the writer and the addressee are always in all capital letters. The subject line is in both upper and lower case and the subject is always underlined. However, you need not neces- sarily use a subject line. Paragraphs should not be indented. The left margin should begin under the letter "D" of the word "Memorandum" on the paper. The typist's initials should never appear on the memo. Carbon copies should be addressed to a person using his full name, e.g., "Mr. John D. Ehrlichman," never "John Ehrlichman,' or "Mr. Ehrlichman." Check with Gene Roberts for the number and kind of file copies you should make if the memo is for Mr. Magruder's signature. Always mark the copies. Thank you. cc: Mr. John D. Ehrlichman CONFIDENTIAL SAMPLE Committee for the Re-election of the President 1701 PERINSYLVANIA AVENUE, N.W., WASHINGTON, D.C. 20006 (202) 333-0920 May 5, 1972 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF TRANSPORTATION SUBJECT: Memoranda for Members of the Cabinet This is the form to be used for memos to members of the Cabinet and other high government officials outside the White House. It is also the form for memos to the President: "MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT.' The Cabinet Member's title is used rather than his name, e.g., "MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF COMMERCE," rather than "Memoran- dum for Peter Peterson." The memo is on stationery, not memo paper. It is usually marked Confidential. The addressee's line is in upper case, the subject line in both upper and lower case, and is underlined. The writer signs at the end of the memo rather than at the beginning. If the memo is being typed for Mr. Magruder's signature, check with Gene Roberts for the number and kind of copies. As is the case with all letters and memos, the typist's initials should not appear on the original, but should appear on the file copies and the copies should always be marked. If someone is preparing the memo for someone else's signature, the copies should show that, i.e., "JSM:RCO:jcm." That means Jeanne Mason typed it for Rob Odle who prepared it for Magruder's signature. If there are attachments or an attachment, that should be noted on the original. The writer's name at the end is capitalized. JOHN H.

West 1019 Twentieth Street, Northwest Washington, D.C. 20036 COMMITTEE FOR THE RE-ELECTION OF THE PRESIDENT EFFECTIVE DATE PAGE 1 TRAVEL AUTHORIZATION AND 1972 WEEKLY EXPENSE REPORTS ISSUED F.P.P. - 3.3 " 1. SCOPE 1.1 The provisions of this instruction are applicable to all segments of the Committee for the Re-election of the President. 2. DEFINITION 2.1 Reasonable expenditures are expenditures that an employee would make to maintain his normal standard of living, utilizing his own funds to defray such costs as transportation, lodging, meals, tips, taxis, parking, telephone and other necessary travel expenses. While the reasonableness of travel expenditures varies with a person's position and locale, experience indicates that meals should not average above $12.00 per day, and lodging should be arranged at chain motels and hotels at commercial rates standard in the locale. Exhorbitant ex- penses will not be refunded. 3. POLICY TRAVEL 3.1 Employees are reimbursed for actual expenses incurred, provided that they represent reasonable expenditures and are the direct result of carrying out an authorized assignment. 3.2 Advance funds are not made available to employees, except upon written authorization of a group manager.

MITCHELL THROUGH: JEB S. MAGRUDER FROM: HERBERT L. PORTER Bart SUBJECT: Grand Opening of the Downstate Headquarters of the Illinois Committee for the Re-election of the President, Springfield, May 26, 1972 We have received an invitation for you and Mrs. Mitchell to be the principal participants at the grand opening of the downstate headquarters of the Illinois Committee for the Re-election of the President in Springfield, Illinois, on May 26, 1972. The proposed program is described in detail in the attached memorandum, which was prepared by Jon Foust and Susan Davis following a pre-advance visit to Springfield. In brief, the proposed program is as follows: 1) An airport arrival ceremony in Springfield with Governor Ogilvie, Senator Percy, Congressman Findley, Mayor Talford, and other Republican dignitaries. 2) A ribbon cutting ceremony, accompanied with brief remarks, at the headquarters site. It is our understanding that a large crowd is anticipated. 3) A press conference in the State Capitol Press Room, two blocks from the headquarters site. This segment of the program might also include an intro- duction to the assembled legislature from the Speaker's rostrum in the House. 4) A reception at Illini Motors for approximately 200 individuals. (The reception would be financed by the owner of Illini Motors.) Page 2 This proposed program constitutes one of the main high visability, media oriented events in Illinois prior to the Convention in August. We recommend that you and Mrs. Mitchell accept this invitation. APPROVE DISAPPROVE COMMENTS Attachment Committee for the Re-election of the President MEMORANDUM April 10, 1972 MEMORANDUM FOR: JON A. FOUST FROM: SUSAN A. DAVIS SUBJECT: Grand Opening of Downstate Committee Headquarters, Springfield, Illinois The grand opening of the downstate headquarters for the Committee for the Reelection of the President in Springfield, Illinois, has been tentatively set for Friday, May 26. The opening ceremonies are planned for 12 noon, followed by a press conference with the principal speaker and a reception for party officials at Illini Motors in Springfield. John Henry Altorfer, downstate campaign chairman, has requested, in preferential order, John and Martha Mitchell, Tricia and Ed Cox or John Wayne as the principal speaker (s) Apparently, Julie Eisenhower opened the downstate headquarters in 1968 and Altorfer feels her presence was indicative of the importance placed on the Illinois vote by the national campaign staff. By the same token, Altorfer feels that the speaker for this event will again reflect the importance of the state of Illinois in the November election. In making his speaker request, Altorfer made several points: 1) As mentioned above, the speaker sent will reflect, in the eyes of the Illinois Republicans, the importance of the Illinois vote in November; 2) Altorfer wants the grand opening to be a "downstate" affair as opposed to a "local" Springfield affair. A speaker of the stature mentioned above would draw people from surrounding counties, while a Cabinet official would probably only draw Springfield people; 3) The purpose of the grand opening is to publicize the beginning of the campaign downstate and to stir up the party faithful to volunteer their time and services to the campaign effort. A big name personality could kick off the campaign appropriately and engender enough enthusiasm for the campaign to continue full speed ahead; Mr. Jon A. Foust April 10, 1972 page 2 4) Altorfer also mentioned that Springfield is a "sophisticated city" as well as a very "political city". The populace has been inundated with politicos and, as a result, is apathetic to most events. A prominent speaker is necessary, in the eyes of the downstate Committee, to gain media coverage, and sufficient public interest to ensure a large crowd. 5) The projected budget for this event is approximately $8,000 (in addition to the expense assumed by Michael Kreider, owner of Illini Motors, for the reception). If the Committee does not send a "top biller", Altorfer is not willing to spend $8,000 -- nor is he willing to expend the effort and resources for an event of this proportion. If the Committee sends a Cabinet member and/or a mediocre celebrity, Altorfer will revamp the proposed schedule and have. an opening on a much smaller scale. (While Rogers Morton would be acceptable, Earl Butz or John Volpe would not.) Attached is a proposed schedule for the event, a proposed budget and diagrams of Nixon Headquarters and Illini Motors. Keeping in mind that the schedule is flexible enough to adapt to the principal's needs and wishes, the following factors are of import: 1) A private plane has been secured to transport the principal from St. Louis, Missouri, to Springfield, Illinois, (there is only one direct flight to Spring- field from Washington, a 7:30 p.m. flight departing Dulles Airport). Since the principal will be in St. Louis, and since the media market is different from that in Springfield, we could get maximum expo- sure by holding a planeside press conference in St. Louis, before departing for Springfield. The plane will be donated by Bisch Airways and,at present, is expected to be a Cessna 401. It will seat 6 passengers, including two crew members. We have asked Altorfer about the pos- sibility of securing a larger plane if necessary and he is checking that out. 2) The schedule tentatively calls for the opening cere- monies to begin at noon. Dependent on the principal's time schedule, the opening could take place around 3p.m. In both circumstances, we would approach the Governor's office to let state employees leave work for the event. Mr. Jon A. Foust April 10, 1972 page 3 3) A platform (approximately 12' X 21') will be built outside the headquarters and Hawkins Electric has been contacted to provide the sound system. The building owner will allow any type of decorations, and the downstate Committee plans on hanging banners, posters, bunting and balloons from the building's facade. 4) The program will be preceded by pre-program festi- vities still to be determined. After the formal program and ribbon-cutting ceremonies, the downstate campaign people would like the principal to view the headquarter facilities. While the principal may feel this is appropriate, we have both a secu- rity and time problem here, owing to the fact that there is only one entrance, which also serves as the exit. For this reason, it may be logistically more feasible to have the principal sign the guest- book at the outside entrance and depart immediately for the press conference site. 5) Altorfer and Kreider have suggested that the principal hold a formal press conference at Illini Motors, in a building apart from the showroom where the reception will be held. For obvious reasons, it would be inappropriate and inadvisable to have the press present at the reception or even visibly aware of the event, since it could easily be construed as an Administration plug for a. corporate venture. It is suggested that the press conference be held in the State Capitol Press Room, two blocks from the headquarters site. The press room is already set up for television coverage, too. Chicago and St. Louis have both television crews and newspaper reporters at the Capitol covering the legislative session. Since the legislature will be in the last two days of their session, we will be able to get good coverage by making the principal easily acces- sible to the press. As a footnote, since the prin- cipal is already in the Capitol, it might be appro- priate for him to be introduced to the legislators and visitors from the Speakers rostrum in the House. (Speaker of the House is Robert Blair, a Republican.) 6) Following the press conference, a reception would be held at Illini Motors, ostensibly billed as a political Mr. Jon A. Foust April 10, 1972 page 4 reception for about 200 of the party faithful. It is also the 50th anniversary of Illini Motors, and Michael Kreider, who is solely financing the recep- tion, will invite about a dozen of his business colleagues in addition to the Republican invitees. The invitations will be mailed out in the name of the Downstate Committee and will not allude to the 50th anniversary celebration. Additionally, the shop will be closed that day and there will be no banners or advertisements concerning the 50th anniversary. (It should also be noted that Kreider's contract with his mechanics is up for renewal on May 1st. While there is always the possibility of a strike, Kreider feels the chances are remote.) The principal may be asked to spend about 15 minutes in a photo session with no more than 10 Illinois VIP's prior to dropping by at the reception. This would be held in the conference room at Illini Motors. Following this the principal would enter the reception area, greet the guests, and have the opportunity to deliver brief remarks if so wished. The time spent at the reception can be wholly dependent on the principal's desires. 7) Dependent on the departure time from the reception, and on the principal's following day schedule, he would be transported by private plane to either Chicago or St. Louis, enroute to Washington, D.C. We are in possession of a letter from the Illinois Committee General Counsel declaring the legality of the principal par- ticipating in the reception at the Illini Motors. We also have the rental agreement letter for the Committee headquarters. (Kreider is renting the building to the Committee.)

As I understand it, you are renting the Spring- field Headquarters space from Michael Z. Kreider, an officer of Illini Motor Company. Mr. Kreider has asked if it would be possible for the person who formally opens the Headquarters on May 26 to make some brief remarks at the Illini office and terminal where a large group is expected to be present. In my opinion, it is perfectly proper from the legal point of view to grant Mr. Kreider's request. Sincerely, Tom Thomas H.

Kreider John Henry Altorfer Donors Chairman by Rondel Lailley Ronald Ladley, her agent/ by John Committee for the Re-election of the President MEMORANDUM April 13, 1972 MEMORANDUM FOR: THE HONORABLE JOHN N. MITCHELL THROUGH: JEB S. MAGRUDER FROM: HERBERT L. PORTER Bart SUBJECT: Fundraising Telethon Mr. Stans called me yesterday (Wednesday, April 12) saying that he and Taft Schreiber had discussed the idea of a fundraising telethon just prior to the California primary. Their idea is to arrange for a T.V. hook-up to cover San Diego, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. This would be over independent stations in each of these cities. Stans wants to "test" the idea with the thought that if it is successful, he perhaps could do the same thing nationwide prior to the convention in August. Taft's input is that the show could begin early Sunday evening, June 4th (California primary is June 6) with an array of talent from Hollywood. He would ask Sammy Davis, Jr. to assist in putting such a show together. Mr. Stans told me to "go" on the project. However, there are some pitfalls that should be discussed. First, the Democrats are planning a similar event nationwide in July. Why not let them provide the "test"? Secondly, if such a plan is approved, is California the best test market? Perhaps a smaller state would be better where success or failure will not create too much news. I strongly suggest that this recommendation be discussed more thoroughly, and if approved, come from the highest levels of the campaign. COMMITTEE FOR THE RE-ELECTION OF THE PRESIDENT 1701 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE. N.W WASHINGTON. D. C. 20006 March 24, 1972 (202) 333-0920 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM FOR: THE HONORABLE JOHN N. MITCHELL FROM: JEB S. MAGRUDER SUBJECT: New York State A short time ago, I reported to you that members of Perry Duryea's political staff from New York State had visited our Committee to discuss avenues of mutual cooperation in the 1972 campaign. They have now submitted specific proposals for our consideration. This memorandum discusses those proposals and presents recommendations for further negotiations. Mr. Duryea's group develops and executes strategy to assure that the Republican Party will retain a majority in the State Legislature in 1972. They develop plans for the campaign in each Assembly district; provide demographic and past voter data; advise on public relations and advertising; and in cases of marginal Assembly districts, provide a campaign manager to execute the strategy which has been developed. There are five areas wherein we see meaningful opportunities for cooperation: polling, direct mail, demographics, political intelli- gence and strategy, and get-out-the-vote activities. Polling The New York Legislative Group will use Bob Teeter's company, Market Opinion Research, to conduct telephone polls by key Assembly districts throughout the state. The interviews will be conducted continuously over the last six weeks of the campaign. The state operation will cost about $100,000. Bob Teeter feels that, by sharing the state facilities, we could save about $15,000-$20,000 from our planned telephone polling activities over the last weeks of the campaign. Direct Mail Their plans for direct mail are very much along the lines that we have been developing, which are to identify the target voter demographically and then to be able to communicate with him by name and address. The New York Group has engaged a political consultant, CONFIDENTIAL - 2 - Bob Colonna, to combine the Donnelly list, registered voter lists and ethnic category identification into one comprehensive state mailing list. There are approximately 7,500,000 registered voters in the state. The reported cost for the project is $350,000, plus $110,000 annual update cost. We have been offered the use of the list for the campaign for $73,000. In talking to Donnelly executives, we have learned that the state group is contractually prohibited from selling the Donnelly mailing list to a third party. Moreover, the overall mailing list project appears to be behind schedule. However, the lists of registered voters and ethnic category identification would be very valuable to us, in conjunction with our access to the Donnelly list. Therefore, our negotiating objective should be to acquire the voter and ethnic lists, but to remain "un-coupled" from the New York project. Demographics As a result of reapportionment, the New York Group has developed a superb demographic data base. It has been compiled by politically astute people, and can be readily applied to campaign activities. There is no practical way that we could develop a comparable data base in time to be useful in the campaign. The cost of the project is reported to have been $250,000. We have been offered access to the data for $25,000. Political Strategy and Local Intelligence The New York Group has currently available for its own use and can provide the Nixon campaign with the following data on an Assembly district or county basis for the entire state of New York. 1. A current reading of any local issues which are volatile and which should either be avoided or the Nixon effort should be aware of; 2. A daily clipping service by district, and by issue of all dailies and weeklies in the state; 3. A daily news summary of the twenty-six (26) major papers in the state of New York; 4: An up-to-date list of every political and non-political opinion leader in the state; 5. Current economic data and trends for the entire state; - 3 - 6. Current population data and trends for the entire state; 7. A break out of state legislation affecting each area and the reaction of the area to that legislation; 8. Political intelligence on each county in the state; and 9. The amount and type of federal and state aid by area of the state. Further, the New York Group through its staff statewide can provide assistance in properly advancing any campaign swing by the President, Vice-President, or other campaign spokesmen. Most important, the New York Group has been through two statewide campaigns, 1968 and 1970, as well as reapportionment this year. Their understanding of the state can be invaluable in formulating campaign strategy, and they stand ready to assist in that manner. Get-Out-The-Vote Operations To a very large degree, the same type of voter who will support a Republican candidate for the State Legislative races will also support the President. In these state races, there will be about 30 or 35 districts which are marginal and which will receive the greatest emphasis from Perry Duryea's organization. These efforts will particularly focus on identifying all of the voters who will support the Republican candidate and to get out every one of those votes possible on Election Day. With an effort of that intensity in those Assembly districts, it would appear that there would be little benefit in our attempting to organize an overlapping get-out-the-vote mechanism for the President. Our most effective strategy may be to assign such activities to the legislative group and to focus the work of Governor Rockefeller's organization in the re- maining areas of the state. Summary and Recommendations The proposal from the New York Group can be summarized as follows: Polling (50% of their costs) $ 50,000 Direct Mail lists (cost of maintain- ing the list during the 8 months we use it) 73,000 Demographic data base (10% of the total cost of the project) 25,000 Total $148,000 CONFIDENTIAL - 4 - All of the expense-sharing formulas are somewhat arbitrary and subject to negotiation. From the point of view of our own costs, the figures might be: Polling (our cost savings by using $ 15,000 - $20,000 the New York system) Direct Mail (cost of obtaining voter (Not yet determined - might registration lists and ethnic identi- be as high as $75,000) fication and adding it to our computer system) Demographic data base (New York Group $ 25,000 price probably fair) The central questions are, what are we getting for the money, and how much is it worth to us. We are really buying a working relationship with an extremely effective political organization in New York State. That becomes valuable if New York remains a winnable state. Their strategic know-how could conceivably make the difference in a close race. Moreover, their guidance could make our expenditures on advertising, direct mail, etc. within the state more cost-effective, thereby saving more than the amount we are being asked to contribute as shared expenses. Their ability to promote the President and his issues through legislator newsletters, etc. is a very potent tool. Most important, the voters who support Republican legislators are predominantly Nixon voters, and vice-versa. Therefore, all of the activities of the New York Group, from mailing, to speakers and rallies, to get-out-the-vote, will be supportive of the President's candidacy. Recommendations That we seek to reach an agreement with the New York Group, and to incorporate their strategic understanding of the state in our planning and campaign activities. Our relationship with them would be carefully conducted, so as not to conflict with the position of Governor Rockefeller's organization as the one responsible for the campaign in the state. Primary contacts would be by Bob Teeter (polling), Bob Morgan (direct mail), Art Finkelstein (demographics) and Bob Marik (general strategy and planning), along with any others you would deem appropriate. They would not have access to our overall plans for the state campaign. Approve Disapprove Comment CONFIDENTIAL - 5 - That Bob Teeter attempt to negotiate a cost-sharing arrangement on polling which more nearly reflects our own cost savings; that is, $15,000 rather than their bid of $50,000. Approve Disapprove Comment That we accept their proposal of $25,000 to gain access to their operational demographic data base. Approve Disapprove Comment That, in direct mail, we negotiate to obtain the voter registration list and ethnic identification, but use the Donnelly list directly from the vendor. A separate recommendation will be submitted as soon as we have completed our analysis of cost savings available through use of voter lists (elimination of letters to non-voters) and alternative costs of obtaining the registration lists independently. Approve Disapprove Comment If you agree with the above recommendations, that Governor Rockefeller's approval be obtained before final negotiations are conducted.
