Richard Nixon--2
since he was a student here.
Should there be interest at any time, I would be
bold enough to suggest that if the procedure referred to--
of policy clarification procedure through appraisal of
views of informed persons-be considered, I would be most
confident that the Republican Party would or could profit
greatly from use of it. This procedure was seriously
considered for use by the Congress (Joint Committee on
the Organization of Congress--LaFollette, Monroney)
but not accepted by the narrow margin of belief that
it might conceivably be partisan in its operation,
despite the assurance of Luther Evans (then Librarian
of Congress) that the requisite objectivity would be
found in some persons.
With highest regards and best wishes
Sincerely yours
Norman Cmeier

Professor of Psychology
P.S. I regret that my presence in Chicago Friday and
most of Saturday prevents my attendance at the Des Moines
meeting. I did hear you at the 1952 one; I was in
Paris at the time of the 1956 campaign.
