MEMORANDUM FOR GORDON STRACHAN
FROM MARY ANN ALLIN
What will be our policy on this kind of follow-up request from
Congressional candidates who want some special language to
be used in ads and final publicity? The attached draft language
is not good, but could be rewritten as a personal letter to Dowd.
His race has special priority because he is very close to un-
seating an incumbent Democrat, and this came to me with the
recommendation of Harry Dent and the Congressional Campaign
Committee. (Dowd received the standard endorsement letter
on October 16, but has not used it.)
SUGGESTED DRAFT OF PRESIDENTIAL LETTER IN BEHALF OF WILLIAM F. DOWD
To the Citizens of the Third Congressional District:
As this campaign period draws to a close, I wish to thank the people
of Monmouth and Ocean counties for the fine support you have given our
administration during the past four years.
During the next four years, if I am privileged to serve as your President,
our administration will need the support of competent and dedicated members
of Congress. Our programs designed to achieve a clean environment, an
America free from the fear of rampant crime, a strong economy open to all
citizens, and a world free from the scourge of war and the threat of war
these programs must have strong support in the Senate and the House.
In the third district, you are especially fortunate to have a candidate
for the House of Representatives who I know personally as an exceptionally
knowledgeable and capable young man.
Bill Dowd served as a member of my staff with great distinction,
and impressed me and the members of my administration with his keen aware-
ness of contemporary problems and his constructive approach toward the issues
of the day. At considerable personal sacrifice, he has made government his
life's work.
If we are successful on November 7, our administration will need Bill
Dowd in the Congress. Thus, his election is important to the future of our
nation. As important, however, is the environmental and economic well-
being of the Third District. In Bill Dowd, the voters of Monmouth and Ocean
counties have an opportunity to elect a spirited and dedicated citizen who,
I am confident, will champion your interests and stand up for the principles
which assure the continuing success of the American Revolution.
Without hesitation, I ask all those citizens who plan to support our
administration on election day to give strength and meaning to that support
by sending Bill Dowd to Washington.
Sincerely,
(RMN)

MEMORANDUM FOR:
CLARK MacGREGOR
FROM:
STAN ANDERSON
SEA
SUBJECT:
Presidential TV Commercials to Aid
Senate and House Candidates
This memorandum outlines a proposal for Presidential participation in uniform
TV commercials to aid target Senate and House candidates. This memo supplements
the proposal I made to you in my memo of September 29, entitled Senate and House
Races Planning Paper.
There continues to be a great deal of discussion and some controversy concern-
ing the President's involvement in Senate and House campaigns. There are, of
course, arguments of merit on both sides of the issue. It seems to me, how-
ever, that this proposal for TV commercials cuts a medium line between those
who argue that the President should become actively involved in Senate and
House campaigns and those who argue he should not because it will affect his
overall vote-getting ability.
This proposal identifies the President with a limited number of target candi-
dates but does not put the President in a position of actively and personally
campaigning in a state.
Audio Tapes. We have ten target Senate races and I propose that the President
tape a 30-45 second personalized audio recording for each race. This tape would
be used as the sound track for a TV ad in which the local Senate candidate would
supply the video pertion of the film. We would ask the ten candidates to supply
us with drafts of text which would be re-edited by the November Group. This
proposal would only require 1/2 hour of the President's time. Once the re-
cording is completed the tapes could be reproduced and distributed within one
week. The benefit of this proposal is that you have the President orally en-
dorsing the target candidate, one step more than his written endorsement, but
he is not. visually seen and he personally was not in the state for the purpose
of endorsing a Senate candidate.
Approve

Standard TV Ad. I also recommend that a standard 45 second TV tape be pre-
pared for distribution to our target Senate races and "maximum support"
House races. This tape would show various film clips of the President deal-
ing with the Congress, the State of the Union Message, returning to the
Capitol from Moscow, leadership breakfasts, etc. An off-camera announcer
would narrate the message about the President's need for a Republican Con-
gress. The target candidate could then add a tag line to the uniform ad that
he supports the President and wants to be part of the Nixon team in Washing-
ton. The proposal would not require any of the President's time. Production
time would be approximately two weeks, consequently, a decision must be made
soon so that production can begin. I would also point out that the go-ahead
to begin production can be made now and a final decision on distribution can
be withheld until as late as October 20th. This would allow us to be in a
position to act if late in the campaign it is decided that the President
should take a more active role in local campaigns.

Gordon Strachan has reported the decision to hold endorsement

If the objective is not to alienate sitting Democrats, the
compromise would achieve the goal. On the other hand,
incumbent Republicans would appreciate the endorsements,

REPUBLICANS CLASH over campaign
funds, tactics. Scars will remain after election.
GOP congressional strategists are bitter at
Nixon's reelection planners. They charge a
presidential "vacuum cleaner" sucks up con-
tributions needed for other campaigns. Com-
plainants say it's hard to get White House help
for Republicans challenging pro-Vietnam Dem-
ocrats. Washington orders local Nixon head-
quarters not to display pictures or literature of
other GOP candidates.
The critics complain Nixon doesn't talk
about needing a Republican Congress. They
note he took some Democrats along on his re-
cent trip to Texas. Malcontents say Nixon
could do more to help Sen. Tower in Texas,
Senate candidate Blount in Alabama. They sus-
pect the White House figures on another Demo-
cratic Congress, wants to smooth relations with
its leaders.
Some politicians expect Nixon will hit
harder at congressional Democrats after
adjournment. Agnew does some stumping
now for fellow-Republicans.

SUBJECT:
Senate Campaign Film
After our conversation this morning 1 traced the steps on
"commitments" for the President to have films made with
incumbent Senators seeking re-election. Stan Anderson and
Clark MacGregor confirm that a Presidential offer for
campaign film has been accepted by:
1.
Gordon Allott
2.
Caleb Boggs
1.2
CHI Hansen
4.
Mark Hatfield
5.
Chas. Percy
This stems from the President to MacCregor to Dominick to
candidates, with Anderson doing the follow-up staff work.
Incidentally, I personally checked on Caleb Boggs and he now
wants film and will buy the Philadelphia market. 1 gather the
young radical Democrat is closing Cale's early margin.
Clark believes he told you that we have no further obligation to
do film for challengers.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
4
That Presidential time early next week be set aside for Blming.
2. That Timmons call live Senators to offer film at that time if
they want it.
3. - That Rep. Bill Scott (R-VA) be asked to come in at same time

Subject: Campaign Correspondence Update
I. As I have indicated earlier, the following political correspondence
has either been completed or is in the process of completion:
1. Letters to 2, 700 Convention Delegates and Alternates.
2. Letters, photos, certificates, and mementos to about
1,000 other participants in the Convention.
3. Letters of Presidential endorsement to:
a. 175 incumbent House candidates.
b. 260 non-incumbent House candidates.
C. 16 incumbent Senate candidates.
d. 17 non-incumbent Senate candidates (includes
3 House members running for the Senate. )
e. 6 incumbent Gubernatorial candidates.
f. 13 non-incumbent Gubernatorial candidates.
g. 50 state and local candidates with perhaps 200 more
to come.
4. 60 political messages a week with perhaps 300 more to
come.
5. Continuing acknowledgment of all incoming political support
with follow-up as indicated.
-2-
II. Anticipating a "get-out-the-vote" effort in the closing days of the
campaign, I propose the following for review and consideration:
1. That "book telegrams" (draft at Tab A) be used for our
"get-out-the-vote" efforts. Book telegrams use identical
texts but are individualized by name and address. There
is no "Dear Friend" type of approach. These telegrams
are cheaper, faster, and convey a sense of immediacy,
of urgency, which letters do not. Also, we do away with
many of the problems attendant to "robot" letters such as
salutations, preparation, signature, etc.
Approve
Disapprove
2. That our "get-out-the-vote" messages be dispatched no
later than October 23. This will enable the message to
be reprinted locally in campaign newsletters and other
materials, and to be reproduced in facsimile for distribu-
tion to precinct workers and other campaign volunteers.

III. In addition, Bill Timmons has recommended that we follow
standard procedure in sending "election-eve" telegrams to
Congressional candidates. The message would reenforce the
President's earlier endorsement of the candidates, show the
President's continuing active interest in the outcome of the
races, serve as an "eleventh hour" morale booster, and give
the candidates the chance to reprint the telegram as an ad in
the election eve and election morning editions of the local
newspapers where it might make the margin of difference.
Timmon's office would review the final list before the tele-
gram is dispatched, but the total should run about 470. The
message drafts to incumbent and non-incumbents are attached
at Tab B.
Approve

Pending approval of the above, I will obtain the necessary mailing
lists and make arrangements for the dispatch of messages through

AB November 7th draws near, I want you
to know that you have my best wishes for
success in your bld for re-election as
Governor. We, of course, have worked
closely in solving problems of interest
to the citizens of Delaware and the nation
and I have always appreciated your wise
counsel. Since I come from a humble
background like your own, I share your
concern for the problems facing our
people and admire your honest efforts
to find solutions for them.
Your determination to improve the quality
of life for all Delawareans is reflected in
a substantial reduction of crime in your
state, and you have pledged to do more.
The development of career education pro-
grams and the passage of the Coastal Zone
Act to protect your precious shoreline are
two more examples of your innovative and
courageous leadership.
The record speaks for itself, and I heartily
agree with those who say that Russ Peterson
is the best man to lead Delaware in the
important years ahead.

Dear Dan:
As you near the end of what I know must have been
a stimulating campaign, I want to take this oppor-
tunity to wish you the best on November 7th. You
have led the people of Washington through a most
difficult period of economic recovery, and because
we have faced many of the same problems nationally,
I am well aware of the progress you have made.
Throughout your Administration, you have sought to
involve citizens in the problems of government, and
you have led your state to a position of national
importance in the area of foreign trade. All this has
had a positive impact on the economic situation.
As you know, one of my great concerns is that we
return decision-making power and tax monies to the
states where they rightfully belong. You have de-
voted long hours in developing the concept of revenue
sharing and now that it will soon become a reality, I
can think of no better reward for your efforts than
your re-election as Governor so that you may help the
people of Washington realize the great benefits of this
program.
I look forward to working with you in this effort and in

by Dent and Price, is that blanket letters of endorsement

In New York 10 of the requested 108 have been done by
special appeal. The balance should receive a standard

was
Attached is a copy of Stan Anderson's request which came through
Harry Dent for endorsement of candidates for the New York State
Legislature. On the list there are 60 incumbents for the Assembly
(of which 2 have been done), 37 candidates for the Assembly
(of which 5 have been done), and 9 candidates for the State Senate
(of which 3 have been done). In addition, 6 other candidates in
New York have been done, but they do not appear on this list.
They are asking for about 100 endorsements out of approximately
200 races state-wide, so this reflects some selection on the part
of the State GOP and Re-Elect Committees. Telegrams of en-
dorsement similar to the ones attached (actually they just offer
best wishes) can be sent to the remaining candidates, as requested,
but I feel there should be some discussion of how these will be
used to avoid a lot of media overlap where we are endorsing
candidates whose districts are in close proximity. The cost of
such an undertaking can be held down by sending Mailgrams
($1. 60) instead of Straightwires ($10. 65, and Nightletters $3. 20).
For your information, I have attached copies of the four endorse-
ments done for candidates for the California State Legislature.

Mr. Maurice Stans
Committee for the Re-Election of the President
1701 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
Washington, D.C.
Dear Mr. Stans:
On November 7, the voters of the Fifth Massachusetts Congressional
District will be choosing a new Congressman to succeed F. Bradford Morse.
I am the Republican Nominee and my opponent is John Kerry, founder of the
Vietnam Veterans Against the War.
Mr. Kerry, in winning the Democratic nomination, has publicly reported
spending $140,000 in the Primary alone. It appears that he is quite willing
to expend an additional $200,000 in the General Election. Common Cause has
reported this is the largest expenditure for a congressional seat in the
entire Nation. Mr. Kerry has found that the radical left is willing to raise
these substantial sums. Their commitment is not only intellectual and per-
sonal, it is also financial. It is a total commitment.
On the other hand, my fund raising efforts have een limited mostly to
the Fifth Congressional District and needless to say, I find it most diffi-
cult to match Kerry's expenditures for media, telephones, mailings and staff.

Four years ago, I committed myself to the election of President Nixon,
working with Brad Morse prior to the convention in the Northeast and serving
as a floor manager during the convention. Two years ago I served as the New
England coordinator for the Congressional Campaign Committee.
On October 10 of this year, at a meeting with the President in the
White House, Mr. Nixon stated, "Winning your seat is more important than
anything else in Massachusetts". On October 31, Mr. Tom Pappas is having
a fund-raising dinner for the President in Boston. The money to be raised
cannot possibly be spent in such a short space of time before November 7.
I am aware that all congressional candidates need funds. However, they
are not being subjected to the incredible amounts of New Left money being
poured into the Kerry coffers. I am in need of additional campaign funds
: ow amounting to close to $100,000 in order to compete with the Kerry money
blitz. With the funds we win; without the funds Kerry wins. Newspaper
reports have indicated that the Committee to Re-Elect the President intends
to eventually dole out some funds to key congressional races across the
Nation. We have been told that we are one of the ten key districts in the
country. We need those funds now to stay in the same media ball park as
Mr. Kerry. We would also appreciate a significant commitment on the
proceeds of the Pappas dinner on October 31 so that we might borrow on it
to win this election.

Endorsement letters
Attached is Mary Ann Allin's report on Presidential endorsement
letters to GOP House candidates. Every Senate candidate will
receive "tailored" letters depending on the degree of their
Presidential support and local state issues, and those will be
drafted in a few days and sent to you. (No endorsements, however,
for Republican opponents of Senators McClellan, Eastland and
Randolph).
You will note that Allin is giving a special-type letter to Price who
is running against Purcell and also has a "hold" on Jim Collins'
letter because he faces possible Justice action on staff "kick-backs. "
The list of House Members getting special inserts is based on their
marginal status although we can't do this for everybody. Each will
get a line on an issue of particular significance to them. We can
provide language to you if necessary.
At the end of the Congressional session we will take another look
at the "protected Democrats" list to weigh possible exceptions.
Since most of the Hous e letters are now ready to go, I hope you can
clear the copy and list.

MEMORANDUM TO:

FROM:
BILL SAFIRE
RE:
"Institutional Advertising"
A prime purpose of our radio speeches is to show press and
opinion leaders that the President is thoughtfully addressing
the issues, in contrast to McG's strident stump campaign.
Thursday we go with a speech on the New Majority, drawing
a fundamental issue: "Paternalism VS. Personal Freedom?'
I suggest we buy a full-page ad in the Sunday New York Times
News Review Section reprinting the text of the speech.
This runs contrary to every rule of political advertising --
nobody reads long texts, you need pictures, etc.
But it would sure make these points to a wide (about 2 million,
including 500, 000 outside NYC area) audience: (1) Nixon is
sure discussion serious things seriously (2) How come none
of this ever gets reported?
The ad would not cost much; it could be set by the Times in
New York on Thursday in time for the Sunday week in the
Review Section, I think; and it would result in a lot of thought
leaders paying much more attention to this speech and to radio
speeches for the rest of the campaign.

Maury Stans received information from California
people that radio and T.V. ads by former Senator

Bob Finch does not think Kuchel would be
effective. Kuchel doesn't mean much anymore
in California.
Herb Klein thinks radio and T.V. spots by
Kuchel would be effective in Northern
California and the San Joaquin Valley.
Fred Malek thinks Kuchel would have a positive
effect. However, he does not think the Kuchel
spots would be worth sending new money into
California to pay for them in light of the
strict budget situation. Malek does not think
it would be worth shifting some of the money
already allocated to California to the Kuchel

FOR:
HARRY DENT
FROM:
STEPHEN BULL
The President has consented to do a brief filming with Red Blount on
Thursday, October 26, at 9:00 a.m. in the Oval Office. I spoke per-
sonally with Jim Allison and he and Mr. Blount understand that this is
to be silent footage only.
By copy of this memorandum I am requesting Mark Goode to make the
appropriate arrangements to hire a film cameraman to do this filming.
Additionally, Mark is requested to arrange for whatever lighting will be
required. Presumably we will need some fixed lights in the office and,
for this reason, we have scheduled the film session early SO that the
lights may be removed before any other Presidential appointments.
All of the filming will be done in the office since it is getting pretty
chilly, the Rose Garden is fading, and pictorially the outdoors probably
wouldn't lend itself too well for Blount's requirements.
Ultimately I will prepare a brief scenario indicating the actions to be
filmed in the Oval Office, but the President should have some briefing
material on Blount's campaign SO that he can be conversant on the subject.
Would you please do a one-page brief which I will allude to as a tab on
my cover scenario. This brief should be submitted to David Hoopes.
Thank you.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
H.R. HALDEMAN
FROM:
CHARLES COLSON
SUBJECT:
Next two weeks.
I am convinced from listening to Sindlinger interviews on Saturday,
by my own analysis of poll data and by my seat of the pants political
instincts, that most people who are going to vote for the President
because of his record and his accomplishments, have already
decided how they will vote. Those who approve of the President
and think he deserves re-election have been sold.
At this stage of the game, people who are uncertain about supporting
the President are not going to be sold by being reminded of China,
Russia, SALT or any other positive Nixon accomplishment. Many
of them will choose us because we are the lesser of evils or, in the
case of large numbers of Democrats, because they are turned off
by McGovern. In my mind this is the anti-McGovern vote. If it
remains anti-McGovern, it will either come to us or stay home.
The key objective in my mind in the next two weeks is to keep the
undecided voter and the lukewarm Nixon support turned off on McGovern
Most of these people are Democrats and Independents. The polls show
the Republican vote is remarkably solid and hopefully Clark will be
getting everyone of them out to vote.
I, therefore, believe that positive advertising will accomplish little
if anything in the last two weeks of the campaign. The Democrat or
Independent who is not sold on us is not going to be sold on us by
any classy commercials that we run in the next two weeks. We can,
2.
We cany however, keep him unsold on McGovern. Also, the negative
ads are Democrats ads. Just by running them we continue to remind
the disaffected Democrat that he is not violating his sacred vows by
supporting Nixon.
McGovern's strategic problems in some respects have been no different
than ours. He has been trying to win the disaffected Democrats by a
positive appeal to them and it obviously hasn't worked, it has by and
large failed. He has now begun negative ads against us (thank God
he didn't think of them sooner). These coupled with his hard hitting
attacks, Watergate, etc., could begin to have a corrosive effect.
What I am therefore recommending is a negative negative strategy.
If he is not countered, he can begin to persuade Democrats who don't
like him or are turned off by his views that while he may be a horse's
ass, Democrats should vote not for him but against US. We have to
continue to make him so unattractive that no matter how bad a picture
he paints of us, they still will come to us instead of him.
In short, I don't think that there are many people left in the country
who can be persuaded to vote for Nixon Those who are for us have
had plenty of time to reach that decision. I think there are a lot
of people, however, who are against McGovern and our job is to
keep them against McGovern. I am putting it hard on the surrogates
because I don't think in the critical period ahead we can relent on the
attack, but in my fiew we desperately need extensive use of the most
effective anti-McGovern TV commercials and newspaper ads. The
President's own campaigning will keep our own troops charged up
and will keep those who are for the President for him. Only the
attack and the ads will keep those who are against McGovern against
McGovern.
We can probably win the election by doing absolutely nothing for the
next 14 days. On the other hand, if we keep the heat on we can produce
a real landslide and the more Democrats we prevent from voting for
McGovern by forcing them, even if they can't buy us, to stay home,
The better the chance of bringing the Congress in with us, thereby
avoiding the inevitable recriminations from our own Party.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Ollie Atkins
FROM: Clay Claiborne
DATE: October 16, 1972
This will follow up my desperate telephone call to Camp David yesterday.
I have printed and placed in storage here in Washington 800,000 copies of the brochure,
"Partners in Progress - Meet Some of the Blacks in the Nixon Administration." (Please see the copy
attached!)
Is it possible to receive assistance from someone close to the President, or the President
himself, to inform the proper people (1) that these brochures are available in large quantities (2) of
the following circumstances:
- Dr. Clifford Hardin, when shown the brochure at Purina-Ralston a few days ago, was
surprised that it was not receiving the fullest distribution and suggested to Arthur Butterfield that it
be used widely. Mr. Butterfield had never seen the brochure.
- A large number of Republican chairmen are enthusiastic about the brochure but have no
funds to purchase or distribute it. They are convinced that it would be a tremendous advantage to
them among big-city black voters. (See copy of Philadelphia Chairman William P. Devlin's letter to
Bob Brown). Note: Bob Brown is very high on the brochure but has been able to move only
300,000 of the 1.5 million originally printed.
- "Partners" is the only really effective piece of campaign material available to back up
nationally known blacks such as Sammy Davis Jr., James Brown, Floyd McKissick, etc. who have
openly endorsed President Nixon's re-election. I would venture to say that if "Partners" had been
distributed earlier in Baltimore and other cities, James Brown would NOT have suffered a boycott
of his concert yesterday in Baltimore.
- The 800,000 brochures now available cost approximately .02 cents apiece to print, plus
shipping costs from St. Louis to Washington, D.C., and storage. They are printed in four colors on
newsprint for quick and easy distribution in black ghetto and other Negro areas where, for the first

time in my memory, there is no real organized support for the Democrat candidate.
- I would be willing to accept almost any consideration for the brochures to avoid a total loss
on the material now stored.
The President might be delighted to know that since last April when the brochure was first
printed and shown on the ABC national television news program, we received and filled numerous
requests from many black colleges, high schools and organizations - at a cost covered entirely by
the Black Silent Majority Committee.
There has been no end to requests for huge numbers of free copies from black and white
Republican district organizers and state, city, and county chairmen. They want "as many as
possible" free and are wondering "why Washington isn't doing more" to make this persuasive piece
of literature available where it is sorely needed.
I will appreciate any efforts you can make to aid my desperate situation regarding the 800,000
brochures and to help give the President the sweeping mandate he deserves on election day. Please
let me express in advance my deep thanks to you!
Always sincerely yours,
