REAGAN GIRLS
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
THURSDAY, October 1, 1970
LA #54
Always on the hunt for votes to help Governor Ronald Reagan in
his re-election campaign, two state officials of the "Reagan Girls"
stalk through Lion Country Safari in Orange County.
Naturally, they spotted "Toto", the baby elephant in the Pet's
10/70
Corner, and captured her to help in their search.
Miss Sue Sullivan of Sepulveda is director of the state-wide
"Reagan Girls" operation and Miss Natilee Dunlap of Stockton is the
state chairman.
Both girls have been active in politics for some time, serving
as Goldwater Gals in 1964 and Nixonettes in 1968.
Miss Sullivan is a senior at San Fernando Valley State College,
majoring in English Literature. She has served as a state officer
for the California College Republicans.
An avid horsewoman, she is currently treasurer of the Los
Angeles County Horse Shows Exhibitors Association.
Miss Dunlap holds the national title of "Miss College Republican"
and represents the college organizations in the Young Republican
National Federation. She is in her senior year at the University
of Southern California where she is majoring in International Re-
lations.
MORE
REAGAN GIRLS/page 2
Active in many campus organizations, she is president of
Alpha Phi sorority.
Both young ladies urged girls of high school and college age
to contact their local Reagan headquarters to volunteer to serve
as official hostesses for the Governor during the campaign for
his re-election.
"It's fun," Miss Sullivan commented, "but more than that it's
a really important service to the campaign. Activities include
greeting the Governor and other state and local candidates and
representing the Governor at campaign functions such as rallies,
dinners, and tours."
"And don't forget,' added Miss Dunlap, "this is a, chance for
all young women to become involved in politics and take an active
part in a campaign."
Plans call for groups of Reagan Girls in all 58 California
counties plus several groups in Los Angeles County.

REED
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FRIDAY, October 2, 1970
LA #57
The following is the text of a letter sent by Mr. Thomas C.
Reed, State Co-chairman of the Reagan Campaign to Mr. Jesse M.
Unruh. This is in response to a letter from Mr. Unruh to Gover-
nor Ronald Reagan dated September 28, proposing limitations on
campaign spending.
-0-
Dear Mr. Unruh:
We note with interest, and no little humor, your contention
September 28 that money is no longer the mother's milk of politics.
Are we to assume you wish to conduct this election as you
ran the Assembly -- behind locked doors and hidden from public
view? This is not the Assembly -- this is the real world.
Since the days of Hiram Johnson, California has been free of
machine politics. Any citizen can seek public office and win if
he takes his case to the people -- if that case makes sense.
I and hundreds of thousands of other citizens who support
their Governor, plan to tell our neighbors why we support him.
We plan to tell of his accomplishments, his integrity, his honor
and courage by every means available in this busy world. We be-
lieve this is fitting and proper so long as we tell the truth.
This we have done and this we intend to continue to do.
MORE
REED/page 2
One might follow the tradition of the medicine side show
with political stunts and confrontations to attract attention,
hoping then to tell our story. Our way is less spectacular; the
use of legitimate communications media and the personal exposure
of our candidate directly to the people.
Yours very truly,
Thomas C. Reed

CELEBRITY
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
TUESDAY, October 6, 1970
LA # 59
The proverbial Democratic donkey may be the symbol for the top-
rated TV show "Hee-Haw" but the star of the show prefers the Republi-
can elephant.
Buck Owens, America's #1 country music artist for five straight
years, has added his endorsement to the re-election of Governor
Ronald Reagan.
Owens will serve as vice-chairman of the Advisory Committee of
the Reagan campaign.
Maintaining a constant climb in popularity among country music
fans, Owens has hit the top spot in recording charts with every single
he has recorded since 1963. His albums have also kept pace in the
top selling spots.
With a work schedule of hosting the CBS-TV network hit weekly
"Hee-Haw" show, he also makes 100 concert appearances a year. Owens
writes much of his own music and records for Capitol. More than that,
he is recognized as an astute businessman.
Heading up his own company, Buck Owens Enterprises, headquartered
in his home-town of Bakersfield, he has a recording company, a music
publishing company and'a personal performers management organization.
He also owns four radio stations and a television production company.
MORE
BUCK OWENS/Page 2
Son of a Texas sharecropper and a boy who had to quit school at
13 after the 8th grade, he went to work harvesting crops and hauling
produce. Now he owns three ranches where he raises cattle, wheat and
almonds.
For diversification, he also owns a travel agency and an adver-
tising agency, both with national accounts.
"What appeals to me the most,' the popular country music star
said, "is the business-like approach that Governor Reagan has brought
to the huge state government operation. More than that, he is a
rancher himself and has a true appreciation of the needs of the farmer
and working man."
Owens and his wife, Phyllis, live in Bakersfield with their five
children.
He recently hosted Governor Reagan at a fund-raiser in behalf
of GOP State Senate Candidate Bill Park.

FOR RELEASE TO:
FLAT TUESDAY AM'S
October 13, 1970
"I just believe that the Governor represents the brighter hope
for betterment of conditions that exist within the largest minority
group in the state of California -- the Spanish-speaking people."
That was the opening comment of Dan Villanueva, one of the most
prominent leaders of California's Mexican-American Community, as he
accepted an appointment as vice-chairman of the Advisory Committee
for Reagan as a specialist in minority relations.
Villanueva, presently chairman of the California State Parks and
Recreation Commission, specializing in recreational problems in urban
areas, will have added duties in his new position which has now been
expanded to include all urban affairs.
Announcement of his appointment was made by Governor Reagan at
the "Californias A11" reception at the Alexandria Hotel on Monday
(October 12) in Los Angeles.
The former Los Angeles Rams (5 years) and Dallas Cowboys (3 years)
professional football star is now the station manager of KMEX-TV
(Channel 34--Los Angeles).
Pointing out that he is a former appointee of Democratic Governor
Edmund G. Brown to the state recreation commission, and re-appointed
by Governor Reagan to the Parks and Recreation Commission, Villanueva
commented that he has known the Governor for the past several years.
"If the Spanish-speaking community is going to become a part of
the main stream, it must continue to see evidence of hope in solving
its most pressing problems.
MORE
VILLANUEVA/Page 2
"The cooperation between the state and federal government on
finally doing something about our biggest problem, the language bar-
rier, through recent legislation for bilingual instruction in educating
our people is a concrete example of the kind of help I'm talking about.
"Perhaps equally important, the common sense approach of establish-
ing the State Human Resources Development Service Centers in minority
communities where they are accessible to those very people who need
the services most shows a concern and interest in the problems of the
minority groups that have been sadly lacking in the past.
"The new East Los Angeles Service Center is a shining example of
HRD bringing the State Government's service and help directly to the
Spanish-speaking people.
Villanueva was particularly critical of the disastrous reapportion-
ment in 1961 that left the Mexican-American community virtually with-
out representation in the Legislature.
"We have never had a chance to recover from that reapportionment.
I am not prepared to give the person or persons responsible for that
action another opportunity to do the same thing. It is ironic that the
persons who were instrumental in laying out that re-districting which
literally dis-enfranchised this largest minority group in California
now come back to us asking for our support. "
Governor Reagan has publicly promised to work in next year's leg-
islature for reapportionment that would give the East Los Angeles Com-
munity its own Assemblyman.
Villanueva, 32, was raised in Calexico (California). He has alway
been active in civic organizations and is Chairman of the Board of the
Mexican-American Professional and Businessmen Scholarship Association.

ARCHITECTS
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
THURSDAY, October 15, 1970
LA # 66
Two of the nation's most noted architects will serve as Co-
Chairmen of the Southern California Committee of Architects for Reagan.
Announcement of the appointment of Paul R. Williams and Robert
W. Kite, both of the Los Angeles area, to head the committee was made
by David L. James. Southern California Reagan committee chairman.
Williams received two Los Angeles Beautiful Awards in 1970 for
outstanding environment and design for the Litton Industries in Beverly
Hills and the Angelus Funeral Home in Los Angeles.
In his first two years after he had graduated from University of
Southern California, he won three national home competitions. This
started him in the home designing field and he has such residential
credits to his name as Frank Sinatra, Cary Grant, Lucille Ball, Danny
Thomas and many more celebrities.
Williams also was commissioned to do the Music Corporation of
America, Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills, the Los Angeles Court
House and Hall of Administration, three of the University of California
buildings and ten buildings for the Bank of America.
He was Associate .Architect on the $27,000,000 Federal Customs
Building in Los Angeles and on the $50,000,000 Los Angeles International
Airport.
Recognized by Republican and Democratic administrations alike for
his outstanding contributions to architectual beauty, Williams was

WILLIAMS/Page 2
& KITE
appointed to various commissions by both Presidents Roosevelt and
Eisenhower, as well as California Governors Warren, Knight and Brown.
He is presently serving on the Los Angeles City Art Commission as an
appointee of Mayor Sam Yorty.
Kite is president of Benham-Kite & Affiliates, with seven offices
throughout the country. He also serves as a Director of Benham-Con-
sultants, Inc., who are in the top 1% of the architectural-engineering
firms in the country.
His firm is presently designing both military and civilian com-
plexes and medical campuses in excess of $80 million construction
cost.
Kite has the design of seven hospitals in Northern California
to his credit as well as several high-rise office buildings such as the
16-story 9000 Sunset Blvd. office building and the 13-story Beverly
Hillcrest Hotel. He also was the designer of the $10 million Rose Hills
Memorial Park, the first in the country using contemporary architecture.
Perhaps his most interesting assignment was the design of the new
$25.5 million Ontario Motor Speedway. After much research at such
famous racing facilities as the Indianapolis Speedway and the Grand Prix
Circuit in LeMans, France, he designed the new Speedway which just re-
cently opened.

"MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE"
FRIDAY, October 9, 1970
L.A. #62
Things may "self-destruct in 5 seconds" on "Mission:
Impossible", the Emmy Award-winning TV series on the CBS Net-
work -- but one thing that is permanent is the endorsement of
Governor Ronald Reagan by the show's star.
Peter Graves, handsome Minneapolis-born actor who
portrays the dynamic head of the Impossible Missions Force
in the show, has announced that he is strongly backing the re-
election of Governor Reagan.
"As a long time resident of California and one who is
raising his family here," Graves said, "I cannot help but be
concerned with the many problems that beset the state. I feel
that the common-sense approach to these problems and the busi-
ness-like solutions to them that Governor Reagan has advocated
in his administration must be carried forward for another term."
Graves, an accomplished musician in his own right,
became one of the youngest full-fledged members of the Musicians'
Union at the age of 15.

"MISSION IMPOSSIBLE"/PAGE NO. 2
All through his college years at the University of
Minnesota, where he majored in drama, he continued his music
career, did part-time work on the local radio station and still
found time to participate in the school's athletic program.
After college, he headed for Hollywood and has been a
constantly rising star since he first arrived. For 15 years
the tall, good-looking Graves has combined an extraordinarily
successful television career, spanning four series, with an
equally prolific and rewarding number of starring roles in
motion pictures.
He is an avid reader as well as sports enthusiast and
still enjoys sitting-in on clarinet in Hollywood and Los Angeles
jazz clubs.
He and his wife, Joan, live in Santa Monica with their
three daughters.

MODESTO BREAKFAST
FOR RELEASE TO:
THURSDAY PM'S
October 22, 1970
LA # 70
The following is excerpted from Governor Ronald Reagan's
remarks at the annual "Good Egg Breakfast" sponsored by the Good
Egg Breakfast Committee and the Agribusiness Committee of the
Modesto Chamber of Commerce in the Sportsmen of Stanislaus Club
Building, Modesto, on Thursday morning.
Since the Governor speaks from notes, this is not guaranteed
as a verbatim text. However, he stands behind all material con-
tained in this as a public statement by him.
-0-
I can't begin to tell you what a pleasure it is to accept the
"Good Egg of the Year" Award. It's also a pleasure to have my eggs
fried and on a plate handed to me by a waitress instead of raw and
in the shell thrown at me by someone expressing his own political
opinion.
I guess as long as it's only eggs being thrown a fellow can only
hope there isn't a pitcher with a fast ball in the crowd. But when
the childish act of egg throwing gives way to the deadly act of bomb
throwing, as we saw in three West Coast cities just recently, then
we've got to come to the realization that we're not just playing a
political game
In a kind of a "monkey-see, monkey-do" manner, revolutionaries
of all eras since the invention of gunpowder have used the bomb as
their calling card. But they've added to their arsenal. It took
only one sick man with a political grudge to hijack an airliner
MORE
MODESTO BREAKFAST/Page 2
And now it's kidnaping: It happened in South America, in Europe
and in Canada, and now scores of radicals are threatening political
kidnapings to advance their cause.
All of these fiendish tactics -- the bombings, the hijackings
and the kidnapings -- have one thing in common: they ruin the lives
of helpless, innocent people who want nothing more than to live in
harmony with their fellow man.
To the violent and the criminal, our efforts to halt this kind
of lawlessness will be condemned as acts of oppression gainst the
people. The fashionable word, I believe, is "repression." It will
be used as hardened criminals and anti-social revolutionaries are
brought into court or sent to prison to pay for their crimes against
society.
Let them call it what they will. I'm unable to hear the whimper
of the criminal above the cry of the victim and the weeping of his
widow and children.
It's truly a shame that in this society of hard-working, pro-
gressive people, there are a few who lurk in the shadows waiting for
a chance to return us to the jungle. It is far easier to destroy
than to build. Revolution is quite often thought to be brought about
by people of great talent. That is not always true
The real revolutionary genius is found in those who fostered the
great social and industrial revolutions of the late 19th and early
20th Centuries. In the past five decades alone, the average man's
life expectancy has increased by 50 percent because of the efforts
of some of the most dedicated people the world has ever known. The
MORE
MODESTO BREAKFAST/Page 3
work week was cut by one-third yet per capita output more than doubled,
to bring new comforts to the people of the world.
Thousands of high schools and colleges and universities were
built and the world's knowledge within a few short decades. The
battle against racial discrimination was begun and all of us are now
more conscious of our responsibilities to our fellow man. And the
same people who accomplished these things also fought harder for free-
dom around the world than any other generation in history
When we were born into this world two-thirds of all Americans
lived in sub-standard housing. Now it's less than 10 percent. Ninty
percent of all Americans lived below what is considered the poverty
line. By the time it was our turn to take over, that had been reduced
by more than half and, in our adult lifetime, we have brought it down
to only 10 percent.
Now that is true revolution -- and it didn't come out of the
barrel of a gun, nor did the political power it vested in the people
of the United States.

23: The Governor will speak from approximately 11:45 AM - 12:00
PM. He will then push a plunger which will detonate the blast
that will literally break the ground for the new dam.
(We also have been informed -- by an usually un-reliable source --
that there will be a rider appear on horseback, with a canteen of
water which was gathered from the Oroville Dam. This will be
poured onto the ground as symbolic of the great lake that will
soon appear at the damsite. Added to this there will be big
balloons released to show the height of the dam at completion,
and a stunt flyer will fly around the perimeter of the proposed
lake so that everyone will be able to realize the size of it.)

FRIDAY PM'S

LA # 71
The following is excerpted from Governor Ronald Reagan's
speech at the Perris Dam Groundbreaking ceremony in Riverside County
on Friday.
Since the Governor speaks from notes, this is not guaranteed
as a verbatim text. However, he stands behind all material contained
in this as a public statement by him.
-0-
It's a long awaited pleasure to take part in these groundbreaking
ceremonies for Perris Dam, the last major construction project in what
is probably the greatest engineering feat ever undertaken by man --
the State Water Project.
By May of 1973, behind this dam, there will be a 1,360 acre. lake
with 21 miles of shoreline. Water to sate the thirst of millions of
Californians as well as their growing appetite for recreational facil-
ities.
Perris Dam will be a commanding structure standing 120 feet high
with a crest of 11,600 feet -- more than two miles long. Its waters
will serve the eastern coastal plain region as well as the San Diego
metropolis.
There is a special excitement to this project. In place of 2,080
acres of relatively unproductive land there will be a lake. Its asso-
ciated recreational facilities will literally change the lives of thou-
ands here in Riverside County.
MORE
PERRIS DAM/page 2
Perris Dam spells economic boom. Hundreds of primary and second-
ary jobs will be created by this $27 million project, and upon comple-
tion will come a stable and fast-growing tourist and recreation in-
dustry which will bring prosperity limited only by imagination.
The bond issue which finances the great State Water Project did
not provide funds to build recreational facilities, and that is some-
thing we must take care of now. On the November 3 ballot will appear
a recreation bond issue -- Proposition 20 -- which will provide $60
million for development of facilities on the water project's 19 lakes
and more than 500 miles of canals and streams. Of that $60 million,
$17,280,000 would be spent right here at Perris Dam to provide Cali-
fornians with 5,346,000 man days of recreation annually. Over the
entire state, Proposition 20 would build facilities to serve more than
15 million people annually and would increase the present recreation
capacity of the overworked State Park System by 33 percent.
The limited facilities which have already been constructed on
the State Water Project were financed by money from the state's General
Fund. But the total investment required for comprehensive development
is too great for the General Fund to bear.
But don't think the state is going to bear the full cost of devel-
opment of recreational facilities. We are encouraging private sector
investment in our parks and recreation areas, updating and modernizing
the whole concessionaire system. Concessionaires will invest additional
millions in parks and recreation according to our environmental master
plan
Of course, as I've said before, those new recreational facilities
won't make us too happy if the water is too polluted to swim in, the
MORE
PERRIS DAM/page 3
air too polluted to breathe and our environment too desecrated to
enjoy. That is why we have vowed that our air is going to be cleaner,
our water purer and that protection of the environment will rank as
one of our major priorities.
The search for a new "quality of life" -- has become a major
concern of all Californians. As the population of California grew,
and there are almost 20 million of us today, we depended upon our
natural environment to increase our wealth and satisfy our material
needs. But we also look to our environment to fulfill needs of the
spirit, and quite often we find a conflict between material and spirit-
ual needs in this respect. Our natural resources are not inexhaust-
able, and neither is the patience of our environment. Like a parent
who has been pushed too far, Mother Nature will punish her misbehav-
ing child if abuses continue.
Existing political, social and economic institutions are capable
of meeting our recreational demands at the same time we maintain
environmental quality. In fact, California today has the toughest laws
governing air and water pollution in the United States -- probably
in the world
While we are on the subject of water pollution, I want to enlist
your support for another proposition on the November ballot -- Propo-
sition No. 1, the Clean Water Bond Act.
Proposition 1 is a $250 million bond issue which, if approved by
the voters, will enable' communities throughout California to build
improved sewage treatment plants to conform with our tougher-than-ever
water quality regulations.
MORE
PERRIS DAM/page 4
Local communities are currently required to raise 67 percent of
the money necessary for new sewage treatment facilities before they
can qualify for the remaining 33 percent in federal funds. Under the
Clean Water Bond Act, they would have to raise only 20 percent. The
state would then furnish 25 percent of the money and the federal gov-
ernment the remaining 55 percent.
Proposition 1 will serve an important two-fold purpose: it will
help keep California's water clean and will add economic impetus to
our economy.
We are committed to conservation -- sensible conservation -- and
we want to improve the California environment. We are doing that here
today. We are committed to the preservation of California's natural
beauty and we wish to strike a balance between those who would justify
anything in the name of progress and those who would permit no more
highways, no more factories, no more homes, no more progress.
Preserving the magic of California is everybody's business.
Government can lead the way, but the job cannot be done without the
cooperation of all Californians -- the businessman, the housewife, the
industrialist and the student.

The following is excerpted from Governor Ronald Reagan's
speech to the California Association of Hi-12 Clubs in River-

Since the Governor speaks from notes, this is not guaran-
teed as a verbatim text. However, he stands behind all material
contained in this as a public statement by him.

There is a magic about this beautiful land. California is
more than a place. -- it's a way of life. We should be united as
one poeple dedicated to the traditional freedoms of America. But
unfortunately there are those both in and out of politics whose
words are venomous and negative. Rejecting the rules of reason
and decency, they practice confrontation politics.
With some it's only the last gasp of the last hurrah! The
old fashioned oratory of the demagogue. But there is another
element, few in number, but with a viciousness new to most of us.
They emply the barbaric tactics of bombings and kidnappings and
call it the "new politics".
We have finally recognized it for what it is -- revolution.
There is a common assumption throughout history that revolution
is basically accelerated social evolution. Don't you believe it.
There has really only been one revolution in history that did not
simply exhange one set of rules for another. The American
MORE
LA #73/Page 2
Revolution was not political, it was philosophical and gave
birth to a new concept that rulers were servants chosen by the
people for the people's convenience.
Today's self-annointed revolutionaries wish to return us to
a period of man's history when jungle law prevalied -- when might
was the only criterion of right and the strong preyed upon the
helpless.
The midnight bomber is the supreme coward. He carries out
his evil designs under the cover of darkness so he does not have
to look at his own bloody hands. As MacBeth learned after his
ruthless murders, the blood will not wash away. No man ever put
a chain of suffering around another's neck that God did not put
the other end around the oppressor's neck
We have proven without question the lack of necessity for
violence because the American Revolution never ended. The United
States even today is in the midst of the greatest social and
economic revolution ever known to man.
Of all the problems that plague mankind, we can say: if our
sons and daughters make the same progress in the next 20-years
that we have made in' the past 20, our problems -- economic and
social -- will be solved for all time.
MORE
LA #73/Page 3
If that sounded like a challenge, it was intended. It was
a challenge to the young to recognize that their idealism is
matched in a great many of us who have passed into the shadowy
world of over 30. We are proud of their idealism and welcome
their help in the crusade to maintain the beachhead that has already been
established in the war on bigotry, poverty, and ignorance.
In some ways, the revolutionary chores which fall to today's
youth are perhaps more difficult than those which fell to other
generations. They start at a higher plane with better education,
stronger bodies, more financial resources, better communications
and more awareness. This shouldn't make them cockey because
these blessings are the sum total of progress achieved by pre-
ceding generations including our own! It is their obligation to
use these gifts for the betterment of mankind.
They will not solve the remaining problems they find so dis-
tasteful by dropping out and joining the communes of the alienated.
And certainly to criticize this society for its shortcomings while
tripping out on mind-altering drugs will build a bigger problem
than the ones they point to with alarm.
It is the ultimate in hypocrisy for radical activists to cry
"power to the people" and then attempt to destroy the institutions
the people have spent generations building and supporting for the
benefit of all. The "people" they really refer to in that slogan
MORE
LA #73/Page 4
are themselves and make no mistake about it! Power is what
they want.
Much as we are disturbed, it is reassuring to think that
the radical few make the headlines precisely because they are so
few. They constitute the unusual. The others are not news-
worthy because they are the great majority. I hope it never be-
comes a headline story that young people want to get an education
and legitimate teachers want to teach
With all of the talk of polarization, you might be interested
to know we've put a lot of these young thinkers to work in Sacra-
mento during the past year or so and we're highly pleased with the
results. Students and student-age citizens have been appointed
to such organizations as the California Exposition and State
Fair Board, the Air Resources Board, the Parks and Recreation
Commission and the California Youth Advisory Committee on Selec-
tive Service. In every instance, they've shown tremendous interest
and cooperation and are eager to make a contribution to the wel-
fare of the state.

REED STATEMENT

(415) 434-4457
MONDAY , October 27, 1970
LA # 77
The following is a statement made today by Thomas C. Reed,
Republican National Committeeman and Co-Chairman of the Committee
to Re-Elect Governor Ronald Reagan.
I have just read the San Francisco Examiner article which talks
about Mr. Unruh's 10 percent interest in the Long Beach Holiday Towers
building.
Jesse Unruh and I are both apparently in the real estate business.
I am professionally dazzled by this transaction.
His 10 percent co-tenancy is typical of the depreciation plus
interest tax shelter which expert lawyers and accountants put together
for their wealthy clients. In simple English, Jesse Unruh is using a
beautiful tax gimmick.
Jess Unruh obviously enjoys an interest deduction of a $6.8 million
dollar loan -- $40,000 or so a year for his account -- and depreciation
for another $35,000 or SO. This is dazzling for a partner with no
liability and virtually no cash investment. It is certainly unusual
for a man who all last week went up and down the State complaining about
gimmicks and loop holes in our tax laws. He's using one of the best.
This is also an interesting transaction because Jesse Unruh appears
to be a carried partner. It is my experience that mortgage lenders
will usually ask equity owners to put up 10-20 percent of a building's
value before loaning against the balance. If the John Hancock Insurance
MORE
REED STATEMENT/page 2
Company loaned Jesse Unruh et al $6.8 million on Holiday Towers,
what did Jesse contribute? Apparently not money, especially since
his legislative salary at the time was only $500 a month. Did he
contribute something eles? Did he contribute services?
To quote the Examiner article: "The transactions followed by
a year Unruh's leading role in legislative settlement of the long
legal fight over division of millions of dollars in Long Beach tideland
oil revenues."
This transaction is also interesting because Jesse Unruh is ob-
viously partners with several of the leading citizens of Long Beach --
gentlemen of great stature who certainly must meet the test of being
millionaires. How can Jesse Unruh attack the political influence of
"half-hidden millionaires" when in this deal alone he is a partner with
half a dozen such men.
Lastly, and of course most importantly, this transaction is of
interest because it throws a grave shadow of doubt on Jesse Unruh's
financial statement.

Press Availability at Mission Hills Inn, Mission Hills, California
at 9:30 AM, Tuesday, October 27.

This has been an exciting campaign. It's been thrilling to see
Jesse Unruh discover ecology, crime and now the campus radicals. When
I heard him call for expelling troublemakers, I thought maybe he dis-
covered one of my speeches.
But in a more philosophical moment, Jesse said, if we had
taken some actions four or five years ago that we are taking now, we
could have prevented some of this. "*
That's exactly right. By the time I became Governor in 1967, he
had been a regent for six years during the very beginning of the trouble
at Berkeley. In all those six years, he attended exactly two regents'
meetings. He had done nothing to prevent the current problems.
Now, he was a regent because he was Speaker of the Assembly. In
that capacity there were things he could have done about campus violence.
As late as 1968, Assemblyman Charles Conrad, from right down the
street, tried to introduce legislation to cut off state support for
those students convicted of campus disturbance crimes. Big Daddy would
not even allow the bill to be born in committee.

Then, in 1968 we had an election. The people gave us three more
Republican legislators, and we got a new Speaker of the Assembly, Bob
Monagan.
So, a measure similar to the Conrad bill was introduced as AB 1289.
It passed. Jesse Unruh was absent. I signed it into law on September
4th of that year.
AB 1022, a bill introduced in 1969 to close loopholes in the un-
lawful assembly laws: this time Jesse Unruh was present, but he didn't
vote. I signed that bill into law on July 3rd.
SB 1382, introduced in 1969, would make it a crime to coerce of-
ficials and teachers at educational institutions. Jesse Unruh was
present, but not voting. I signed that bill into law on August 30th.
AB 534, introduced in 1969, making it illegal for anyone kicked of,
a campus during a disturbance to return within 72 hours: Jesse Unruh
was present, was even granted additional time for debate, but he didn't
vote. I signed that bill into law on September 4th.
Now it's 1970 -- AB 1003, to strengthen laws against possession of
explosives or destructive devices: this time, he wasn't even there. I
signed that bill into law on August 19th.
AB 1951, making it illegal to publish the addresses and phone num-
bers of police officers with malicious intent -- intent to harrass or
intimidate those fine men. And Jesse wasn't there. I signed that bill
into law on September 15th.
Jesse wasn't even around to vote on the busing bill (AB 551). In
fact, he was only there eight days in three months.
MORE
Mission Hills Inn/page 3
Jesse's a hard-hat on campus violence if you catch him on
the right day. On May 16, 1970, he said he would not have hired
Angela Davis. But if you caught him seven days later on May 23,
he said that if he were Governor, and thus a regent, he would
vote to re-hire Angela Davis. Will the real Jesse Unruh stand
up?

The following is a statement by Senator and Republican
State Central Committee Chairman Dennis E. Carpenter (SD 34) made today
at a press conference at the Beverly Hilton Hotel at 3:15 PM.
-0-
We are in the middle of the final week of the campaign, and
it seems appropriate, on the basis of what has transpired in the
gubernatorial campaign, to ask: "Is Jesse Unruh for real?"
Senator Richardson and Assemblyman Conrad and I would like
to play the fascinating game of comparing Jesse Unruh, the 1970
gubernatorial candidate, with Big Daddy Unruh, boss of the Assembly
for over 7 years -- and show, on the basis of three separate
issues, just what a total fraud this man is. Senator Richardson
will discuss Jesse and the issue of law and order; Assemblyman
Conrad will handle the issue of campus unrest, and I'd like to
start by comparing "Clean Jess" the honest, God-fearing, anti-
special interest candidate of 1970 with Boss Unruh of 1961-1969
fame, on the issue of: "special interests, special interests, who's
got the special interests?"
As we all know, Jesse is appalled because executives of oil
companies, along with several hundred thousand other Californians,
have contributed to Governor Reagan's re-election campaign --
with contributions that all have to be reported and accounted
MORE
Senator Dennis E. Carpenter
Page 2
for under the law. To "Clean Jess" of 1970, the acceptance of
these reported, accounted for contributions means that the
Governor is in the pocket of the special interests.
Well, I don't scoff at this the way some of my colleagues do.
I take Jesse pretty seriously on this issue, because on the basis
of 7 years of on-the-job training, if anyone knows a special inter-
est when he sees one, it's Mr. Unruh. And if anyone ever knows
what it is to be in someone's pocket, it's the same Mr. Unruh.
The Los Angeles Times put it well in commenting on Unruh's
new found interest in conflict-of-interest legislation. It stated
on December 31, 1968: "Frankly, we are puzzled as to why Unruh,
who has been presiding officer of the Assembly since 1961, has
waited so long to seek redress of an obviously unsatisfactory
situation."
What the Times was perhaps too nice to suggest was that Boss
Unruh of the period up to 1969, like a good mould, thrived on
doing business in the dark.
Specifically:
-- Jesse Unruh was a "broker of special interest money," which
he collected from lobbyists and parcelled out via front committees
to his legislative friends at campaign time. "Unruh money, was
described as the "glue that held his personal bloc together --
the bloc that could someday make him governor."
(San Jose Mercury News, 5/6/63)
MORE
Senator Dennis E. Carpenter
Page 3
-- Unruh stated there was nothing "dishonest or disgraceful"
about accepting contributions from legitimate special interests
and, in fact, "it would spell the end of the business community"
if such contributions were banned. (San Jose Mercury News, 5/8/63)
-- Unruh strongly opposed legislation requiring reporting
of campaign contributions, and as Speaker of the Assembly, actively
fought against such measures. On one notable occasion when a bill
requiring identification of campaign contributions supported by
Governor Brown and carried by a member of Unruh's own party came to
a vote, Unruh applied his famous muscle and made sure the measure
failed. He stated the bill would do nothing "but make politics
a little uglier. Critics could match a legislator's contributions
with his voting record and then cry, "By God, this is why the guy
voted like he did. He was bought." (San Jose Mercury News, 5/8/63)
-- Jesse has steadfastly refused to account for the vast
amount of "mother's milk" he has collected and disbursed during
the years he served as Assembly Boss. When questioned by San
Francisco Chronicle reporter, Jackson Doyle, as to whether he ever
would make a public accounting, Jesse replied: "You know, we can't
have an ex post facto law. (Ronnie and Jesse by Lou Cannon, Doubleday, P .257)
-- Jesse lied about closing his fund. In 1965, he granted an
interview to Jackson Doyle and Bill Boyarsky to tell them he changed
"
his ways.
Unruh says he has closed the books on his con-
troversial political fund - labeled a 'slush fund' by critics -

Senator Dennis E. Carpenter

through which he helped friends get elected,' Doyle reported.
"The closing of the fund was at best an evasion. Unruh simply
set up new front organizations and was back in business at the
next election. " (Ronnie and Jesse, by Lou Cannon, Doubleday, P. 190)
By his own admission, he distributed $365,000 to legislative candidates
in 1968.
-- Jesse's special affinity for "oil money" has been widely
reported -- though never by Jesse himself. Shortly after he
arrived in Sacramento in the mid 1950's, Unruh came to know the
value of oil money and made the acquaintance of the big oil lobbyists.
As a matter of fact, in 1956, Jesse, a freshman legislator up for
re-election, became one of a group of legislators to receive oil
contributions. Lou Cannon in his authoritative book, Ronnie and Jesse,
noted that the oil industry clearly considered Jesse a "comer."

The following is a statement made by Assemblyman Charles
Conrad (AD 57) at a Press Conference at the Beverly Hilton Hotel
today at 3:15 PM:
The question before the house is: "Is Jesse Unruh for real?"
On the issue of what to do about disorder on our college campuses, the
answer is that he is not only not for real, but he is a disgraceful
hypocrite.
On September 30, Jesse took his famous chart-and-easel show to
Berkeley and then and there announced himself as in favor of the
expulsion of students and discharge of instructors guilty of violence.
His pious charade continued with a demand for the assumption of greater
responsibility for the maintenance of order by college administrators,
etc., etc., ad nauseum.
Fortunately, the citizens of California have something to
compare this tough-sounding stand against--the record of Jesse Unruh,
the Assemblyman and Speaker of the Assembly and, more importantly,
Jesse Unruh, Regent of the University of California from 1961 until
1969.
What does this record show?
First of all, let's look at the record of that vitally-concerned
citizen, Regent Unruh. Mercifully, that is a brief task because
MORE
ASSEMBLYMAN CONRAD STATEMENT -- 2
from the date he became an ex-officio Regent in 1961 until
Governor Reagan took office in 1969 (and Jesse saw some political
value in taking his responsibilities seriously), Regent Unruh
attended exactly 2 meetings of the Board of Regents.
Secondly, let's look at Jesse-the-evaluator-of-faculty-
personnel. I have reference, specifically, to his evaluation of
the now-famous Americans, Angela Davis and Eldridge Cleaver.
On Cleaver, Jesse did one of his great "something for
everybody" acts by, first of all, attacking the hiring of Cleaver
and then, on September 19, 1968, voting "No" on a Legislative
resolution to censure the officials of the University for
allowing Cleaver's appointment.
On Angela Davis, Jesse's posture is even more astonishing.
Unruh first stated that the "real issue at the University
of California is not Angels Davis." (Daily Californian,
October 19, 1969). Unruh's next statement concerning the Davis
appointment offered a different posture: "I would not rehire
Angela Davis, I would not have hired her in the first place. The
flat espousal of the Communist system indicates a prejudice that
makes it very difficult for a teacher to be objective." (L.A.
Times, May 16, 1970). Ultimately, Unruh reversed his position a
third time: "I would have to vote to support the Chancellor's
recommendation (to rehire Miss Davis) 11
About all I can'say about this last statement is that if
Jesse Unruh really and truly ever thought that the University of
California ought to hire or rehire Angela Davis, God help the
people of California if such a man ever gets to appoint Regents!

Thirdly, let's look at the record of Speaker Jesse Unruh in the
days he was the undisputed boss of the Assembly, with life-or-death
power over legislation to help the situation on our campuses.
First of all, Jesse has never authored any legislation to
deal with the problem of campus unrest.
Secondly, Jesse's posture throughout 1969 and 1970 has
been never to vote in favor of any measure aimed at tightening up
rules of conduct on our campuses. Specifically:
-- When a major Reagan-supported omnibus campus unrest
measure came to the Assembly for a vote, Jesse was present, was
granted additional time to debate, but did not vote. (NOTE: This
bill was a bi-partisan effort.)
-- Jesse was in Florida - on "Legislative business" - when
the Assembly passed a second major omnibus campus unrest bill in 1969.
-- Unruh was present, but not voting when the Assembly
passed an important measure to tighten state statutes against
unlawful assembly by closing a loophole which prevented successful
prosecution of militants.
-- Jesse was listed as present but not voting on a bill,
later signed into law by Governor Reagan, making it a crime to
coerce or attempt to coerce any official or employee of an
educational institution, public or private.
-- In 1970, Jesse was absent "on personal business" when
the Assembly passed bills that made it illegal to publish the
addresses and telephone numbers of police officers if there is

malicious intent or intent to obstruct justice; strengthened laws
against the possession of explosives or destructive devices--including
"molotov cocktails"; and outlawed the possession of firearms in
schools and other public places, including the University of

The following is a statement by Senator H.L. Richardson (SD 19)
made at a press conference at the Beverly Hilton Hotel today at
3:15 PM.

Again, the question before the house is: "Is Jesse Unruh for
real?"
And, once again, the answer, with respect to the overriding issue
of law and order, is that he is a total and complete fraud.
In this election year, to hear Jesse talk about the problems of
pornography, crime in the streets, drug abuse and the like - vital
problems to every Californian -- you would think he was the reincarna-
tion of Wyatt Earp.
But when one stops for a moment, looks at the record, and looks
particularly at the voting record of Jesse Unruh, Assemblyman and (for
over 7 years) the undisputed boss of the Assembly, it becomes obvious
that not only has Jesse never been part of any solution to the crime
problem in California -- in fact, he's been part of the problem.
The record can best be divided into two parts: Jesse's record
while he was Speaker, and after.
During the period that he was Speaker, as any experienced Sacra-
mento observer can verify, nothing, absolutely nothing, came out of
the Assembly that Jesse did not want to come out. And, apparently,
Jesse and his cronies in the Assembly did not want anti-pornography
legislation coming out of the Assembly. Specifically, he and his
MORE
H.L. RICHARDSON/page 2
hand-picked committee personally killed such legislation in 1963
(AB 3 and AB 14), and in 1968 (SB 124 and 134 -- both bills had been
passed by the Senate).
After, mercifully, Jesse was replaced as Speaker in 1969, and all
his hacks and cronies replaced on the Assembly Criminal Procedure
Committee, Governor Reagan's anti-crime legislative program started to
move. But as it moved, and desparately needed corrective legislation
started to flow, Jesse was either absent on personal business or
present but not voting when the following bills came before the Assem-
bly in 1969 and 1970: Examples:
-- Unruh was present but refused to vote when the Assembly passed
legislation tightening the State's anti-pornography laws. (SB 63, 1961).
-- When legislation was passed to empower local governments to
regulate topless and bottomless performances, Jesse was again present
and not voting. (AB 61, 1969),
-- Jesse was absent for personal reasons when the Assembly voted
in favor of strengthening State laws against pimping, pandering and
prostitution. (AB 818, 1969).
-- Again, he was absent on personal business when major legislation
was passed that permitted school principals to expel or suspend stu-
dents caught using, selling or possessing narcotics or dangerous drugs.
(AB 2247, 1969)
-- Although Unruh was present, he stood by and refused to vote
when legislation was passed to establish uniform State standards for
determining at what point a person is drunk. This is a vital new
weapon to aid in the crackdown on drunk driving. (AB 105, 1969).
MORE
H.L. RICHARDSON/page 3
-- Jesse was absent on personal business when legislation was
passed that greatly increased penalties for the possession and sale
of dangerous drugs. (AB 189, 1969). When these penalties were
increased again in 1970, Jesse was still absent (SB 946, 1970).

The following is a statement by Governor Ronald Reagan at a
press availability with Republican Senatorial Candidate Henry
Boney (SD 40) at the Boney Headquarters, Chula Vista, at 10:00 AM.
today.
-0-
The people of California are getting their property tax bills
this week.
They are higher than last year's but next year will be even
worse unless we act.
We tried to pass a tax reform bill this year. It would have
cut property taxes on the small home by as much as 40 percent - -
25 percent on larger homes. And our bill would have prevented
local governments from raising those taxes again without the voters'
specific approval.
For example, let's take a $32,000 home, with a $10 tax rate --
you can figure up or down depending on your local situation. In
Los Angeles the rate is $12. The fellow who owns a $32,000 home
paying taxes at a $10 rate will be taxed about $725. If our tax
reform package had passed, that bill would have been cut to $500.
Now let's take a $16,000 home. At a $10 tax rate, this home
will be taxed at about $325. Under our plan this would be reduced
to $200.
MORE
BONEY HEADQUARTERS/page 2
For an $8,000 home under the same conditions the tax would
be $125. Under our plan it would be taxed only $50.
We would have paid for this cut by going to withholding taxes,
increasing taxes on larger incomes, closing tax loopholes like the
one Jesse Unruh apparently enjoys on his apartment building, tax-
ing the banks, insurance and oil companies, and adding a penny
to the sales tax.
But it didn't happen. Why? Because a small band of Democrat
Legislators, including Jack Mills here in San Diego, didn't want
it to happen. They voted no. That's why we need Henry Boney in
the State Senate.
And where was that fearless leader, my opponent? He wasn't
there to vote at all on tax reform. He talks a good game, but where
was he on another tax cut I proposed?
In 1969 we saw we were going to have a surplus. Jesse said,
"I think every penny of that surplus ought to be returned to the
people, and returned now. That's the peoples' money.
We agreed. That's why we proposed a law, SB 825, that gave
everyone a 10 percent rebate on their 1969 income taxes.
And what happened? Jesse voted against it, because in the
meantime he'd thought up some new way of spending that money.
We passed that bill without him. I signed it into law ons
September 4, 1969, and each of you got a 10 percent rebate on your
state income tax this year.

I understand that you are planning another of your famous
trips around Los Angeles tomorrow. I urge you to stop by your own
Holiday Towers Apartment in Long Beach, take out your easel, and
answer the following questions:
1. Jesse, are you taking interest and depreciation deductions
of around $75,000 -- without any risk whatsoever? Why do you get
into such a deal 16 you are opposed to tax gimmicks?
2. Why are you in partnership with half a dozen Long Beach
millionsires if they are such a bad influence?
3: Who is partner Sam Cameron? Is he the man reporters
describe as the man who once spent tens of thousands of
dollars on behalf of Long Beach's claim to oil royalties?"
4. If partner Cameron is that interested in Long Beach oil,
was your contribution to the partnership the legislative settlement
of the Long Beach tidelands revenue dispute?
5. Why do you claim you're now only worth $100,000? In Feb-
ruary of 1969 you told a reporter that you were worth $250,000.
6. What are you really worth, Jesse?

From Del Norte County in the north to San Diego County in the
south and from the eastern border of the state to the coast,
elected officials from all local governments have joined in sup-
port of Governor Ronald Reagan's re-election.
In an ever-increasing number, pledges of support have come
from mayors, city councilmen, boards of supervisors, district
attorneys, sheriffs and others.
"The response has been most encouraging," commented David
L. James, Southern California Chairman of the Reagan campaign.
James pointed out that over 270 elected officials, statewide,
were members of the committee of Elected Officials for Reagan.
"For instance," James continued, "nearly sixty-six percent
of all Board of Supervisors in Southern California are on the
Reagan campaign committee.
"Citizens such as these are aware of the problems of government.
They deal daily with the complex and necessary relationship of
state and local governments. When theypublicly offer their sup-
port for another official's re-election, you feel confident that
they have carefully chosen the right man."
