MEMORANDUM
October 18, 1972
MEMORANDUM FOR CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES
FROM:
E. D. FAILOR
I have been advised the President has sent you a letter of
endorsement in your race.
The polls show the President leading by substantial margins
in nearly every state and we hope this will be most helpful
to your race. I have been asked to recommend the following
uses of the President's letter of endorsement to you for
maximum effect:
1. Read the President's letter at all your rallies and
appropriate speaking engagements;
2. Issue a press release on the President's letter of
recommendation;
3. Have an announcer read the President's letter or
excerpts therefrom on your radio and/or television
commercials;
4. Mail copies of the President's letter to all editors,
radio stations and television stations in your dis-
trict.
October 17, 1972
MEMORANDUM FOR ED FAILOR
The President is writing letters to all incumbent
Congressmen and all of our Congressional candidates,
giving them a very good endorsement.
You should set up a system of suggesting to these
Congressmen that they have someone read the President's
letter at all their rallies and other speaking
appearances and that they work out some way of
having an announcer or some other speaker read
the letter on their radio and TV commercials.
The letter were mailed yesterday.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
BILL TIMMONS
CHUCK COLSON
FROM:
H. R. HALDEMAN
The President, as you know, is writing letters to all
incumbent Congressmen and all of our Congressional
candidates, giving them a very good endorsement.
We should set up a system of suggesting to these Congress-
men that they have someone read the President's letter at all
their rallies and other speaking appearances and that they
work out some way of having an announcer or some other speaker
read the letter on their radio and T.V. commercials.
