MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM:
WILLIAM E. TIMMONS
SUBJECT:
House Campaign Chairman
Rep. Jerry Ford (R-Mich) reported today that the House Republican
Campaign Committee will meet later this week and re-elect Bob
Wilson its chairman.
Wilson will then name Clarence "Bud" Brown as Director of
Candidate Recruitment. If all goes according to Jerry's plan,
Wilson will step aside on March 25th and Brown will be elected
chairman. This, they hope, can be publicly announced at the
Senate-House fund-raising dinner at the Washington Hilton on
March 28th.
Apparently all principals have agreed to this arrangement to
save a bloody fight between Brown and Wilson. However, I
stand Dan Kuykendall does not like the "deal. 11
Frankly, I am disappointed that Bud Brown, after a good start
Bill under-
with contacts and vote counts, did not go ahead and force a show-
down with Wilson. Even if he'd lost it would have demonstrated
personal "guts" necessary to do the things the Committee must
do to be successful.
