18/ Mrs. Raymond E. Ulmer E-V 1- special CF 58 Sunshine Road Upper Darby, Pa. 19082 November 8, 1968 Dear President-Elect Nixon; NOV 14 1968 This is an unusual request I admit, and I only pray that it will reach you at all. EH You see, my Father - Terrance E. Lowe - went to cast his vote for you on election day, along with my Mom. Immediately upon returning home his leg began to swell, and in agony was rushed to a nearby hospital, then transfered to The Philadelphia Naval Hospital at 17th & Pattison Ave. To get to the point, he is at this moment undergoing surgery for amputation of that leg. They tried everything, but couldn't save it. I've cried and prayed until I can do no more - and thought perhaps if I wrote to you asking if you would be so kind as to send him a get-well message - I would be doing something. constructive for him instead of wasteing time with tears. I know it will cheer him considerably. .God willing he comes through (He'll be 73 years old on Dec. 19th) to receive a kind word from you. I also realize I have no right to ask any of your time rightenow as I know your moments are precious; but so is my Dad precious to me, and he's the only one I have. So forgive my audacity please, Mr. Nixon. My parents are poor (retired) people with little pleasures in life. To hear from you would be one of the few memorable events that will last 'til the end of his days. Respectfully, and thank you from the bottom of my heart, Mrs Raymond (Marilyn) Umer JAN 1968 VOICE OF AMERICANISM STEUART McBIRNIE / NEWS ANALYST Box Ninety, Glendale, California 91209 November 12, 1968 Dear Mr. Nixon: Now that you are to be the President of all the people, the majority of our citizens are willing, even anxious to do their best to help. We have the welfare of our country at heart and assure you of our sincere best wishes. I write to you as a responsible conservative, not an "extremist, " by any definition. Many conservatives voted for you, some good conservatives did not. But I believe I know very well what all reasonable conservatives are thinking just now, and can fairly guess what this large and growing segment of American thought would like to say to you. Responsible conservatives hold a number of very deep convictions, and some perhaps less ardent, yet important opinions which we would like to submit to you as you begin your admini- stration. Among the inflexible convictions that all conservatives hold are these: (1) We want to see the war in Viet Nam ended without a communist takeover of South Viet Nam. Americans have spent too much money and blood for any less than this. (2) We want the move toward socialism in America reversed and the influence of the socialists ended in government, both in foreign and domestic policies. (3) We want a halt to inflation. We hope we can have pros- perity with freedom, a steadily lessened national debt, with the preservation of a sound dollar. (4) We want criminal laws enforced, public order and safety restored. We specifically include in this a complete end to rampant anarchy and sedition on university cam- puses, and an end to riots. (5) We want America to take the initiative against communism at home and abroad, for all of us believe that communism can be stopped by forcing it to go on the defensive. We are angry with the current policy of permitting communism always to take the offensive, to act while our government merely reacts. (7) We conservatives want to hear our government always tell the truth and neither deceive the people nor attempt to get by with idealistic platitudes which reveal no creative thinking about the real causes of our great national problems. (8) We want America headed away from the collectivist welfare state, toward a strengthening of freedom and private enterprise. (9) We want an end to federal governmental interference with our private lives and businesses in areas where the federal government has no proper role. (10) We want patriotism and good citizenship exalted and treason and crime punished swiftly and surely. We know that not even the President of the United States can wave a magic wand and perform those wonders overnight. But, for a change, we want our new President to mean his oath with all his heart when he VOWS on Inauguration Day, "I promise to defend and protect the Constitution of the United States. " It will greatly increase the confidence that conservatives want to have in you if you will also give consideration to some other matters: (1) Please appoint to the Supreme Court justices who will abide by the letter and meaning of the Constitution; men who will not overthrow the tried and true principles of our great social contract. (2) Please avoid any arrangement with other nations that will compromise our national sovereignty. World government is, we feel, a dangerous dream as long as there are communist forces to take advantage of our idealism. (3) Please don't permit trade with our deadly enemies and thus strengthen their slave regimes over their oppressed people. (4) Please don't let the liberal establishment, as exemplified by the Council on Foreign Relations, and similar groups, get so close to you that they begin to unduly influence your decisions. (5) Please don't name to your cabinet men who represent the tired and bankrupt policies of destructive liberalism. (6) Please don't make agreements with the communist countries (as President Kennedy did in Cuba) that virtually guarantee the perpetuation of a communist dictatorship unhindered by the forces of liberation. You can help those liberation forces in many ways, and we will support you in so doing. (7) Please do work for new and fresh ideas to solve our age- old national troubles. May your administration be a truly "Creative Society" finding among the people them- selves the positive solutions to their own problems. Many conservatives join me in pledging to you our loyalty, hard work, and prayers. We will do our best not to be unreason- able perfectionists. We are, I think, realists, and most of us know that "politics is the art of the possible.' Mr. President-Elect, we just want to know you are sincerely trying. Give us this assurance and the overwhelming majority of us will back you with joy and all the strength we have. We are believers in the Republic. We want you to help us make the American dream become reality.

Nixon 810 Fifth Ave. New York, NY Dear Mr. Nixon: I hope you received the copies of my "VOTE FOR NIXON" song which Ned Sullivan Jr. and my Westchester County Republicans used so successfully during your campaign. As I wrote you, I am proud to have been with the Team and grateful to my friend Vincent Andrews who suggested that I write the song many months ago. I enclose herewith a new song that we just completed BRING US TOGETHER which, of course, was inspired by that little girl's sign back in Ohio. I hope you like the demo (trio ) we just made and in about a week I expect to have printed copies which I will bring to your home. We all are proud of the way you've handled the situation and I hope that you will call on me for anything further service I can render. I hope, too, that Miss Julie received the special copies of another song of mine entitled "BRIDE & GROOM" which we dedicated to Julie and David. The best to all of you and we're behind you in your difficult task that lies ahead.

I'm writing to ask you to take in consideration reapointing Mayor Washington. It would be nice to let Mayor W. Washington stay in office. If you can remember the disturbance in April you will see Mayor Washington was very helpful in try to stop the disturbance. This is one his loyalty for Washington and other states, this proves he is very efficient for the job. Not because of this one cause but when he is set on doing something his mind is made to do, it right and not stopping until it is done. Mayor Washington believes in getting invov involve in public and political matters of the city and state. He did a lot to improve the slum area of Wash: 9 (that was a goal he was going to see through). I feel Mayor Washington would make a very good Mayor. So IThope you will take in consideration about letting Walter Washington being Mayor.

THIS PREOCCUPATION with other nations and their problems has left our own neglected home front a chaotic shambles; we are now in worse trouble than are many of them. Mr. President, come home.

Big government, buying votes with promises of "something for nothing" and "social equality" and "guaranteed security" - promises which no govern- ment can keep - fostered inevitable dis- illusionment and ultimate rioting. There is but one way, Mr. President, that you can pull us back together: make our Americanism worthy of re- spect. Ultimately, if you do that, you will also rewin the admiration of the world. But put "us" first. During your campaign, you promised "to return our nation to its rightful posi- tion of leadership I'm not sure what you meant by that.

Raley's OUR EXCLUSIVE AGING PROCESS PRODUCES MORE TENDER, JUICIER BEEF NOW AT RALEY'S! Most other supermarkets do not age their beef properly. They hang sides of beef in a meat cooler. This causes shrinkage because the beef is exposed to the air. Shrinkage results in A NEW PLAN FOR the loss of juices and flavor. Raley's "Prime" beef is processed into primal cuts and then vacuum sealed in plastic bags locking in its corn fed flavor BUYING FREEZER BEEF while it ages. The natural enzymes work to break down the tissues and make the meat more tender - without the loss of FAT juice or flavor. THAT MAKES SENSE U.S.D.A.
