Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Director Nixon for Governor Headquarters 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 California

Dear Bob

Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr Werner Carlson of the Loma Linda Food Company which I think merits very careful consideration You will remember it was through Mr Carlsons good offices that I was able to arrange the meeting with Dick and Elder Bietz President of the Pacific Coast Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches

I realize it may pose a considerable problem to get General Eisenhower to return to California However in view of the greatly increased interest the General is taking in politics and his close friendship with Dick he might be willing to do it If the race is close I am sure a day or two which he could spend in California a week before the election would tip the scales

I am sure you will agree with me and will do everything possible to see if something of this kind cannot be worked out Regardless of what happens you may want to advise Mr Carlson directly of your appreciation of his interest

I hope you are correct in your estimate of a 400000 majority It sounds good anyway

With best personal wishes

Sincerely yours

~ ELWOOD J ROBINSON President

I inagine that youre taking a respite from tre heavy campaigning of the past few weeks windup and will soon be back in ha rness for the big fight

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Director Nixon for Governor Headquarters 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 California

Dear Bob

Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr Werner Carlson of the Loma Linda Food Company which I think merits very careful consideration You will remember it was through Mr Carlsons good offices that I was able to arrange the meeting with Dick and Elder Bietz President of the Pacific Coast Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches

I realize it may pose a considerable problem to get General Eisenhower to return to California However in view of the greatly increased interest the General is taking in politics and his close friendship with Dick he might be willing to do it If the race is close I am sure a day or two which he could spend in California a week before the election would tip the scales

I am sure you will agree with me and will do everything possible to see if something of this kind cannot be worked out Regardless of what happens you may want to advise Mr Carlson directly of your appreciation of his interest

I hope you are correct in your estimate of a 400000 majority It sounds good anyway

With best personal wishes

Sincerely yours

~ ELWOOD J ROBINSON President

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Director Nixon for Governor Headquarters 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 California

Dear Bob

Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr Werner Carlson of the Loma Linda Food Company which I think merits very careful consideration You will remember it was through Mr Carlsons good offices that I was able to arrange the meeting with Dick and Elder Bietz President of the Pacific Coast Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches

I realize it may pose a considerable problem to get General Eisenhower to return to California However in view of the greatly increased interest the General is taking in politics and his close friendship with Dick he might be willing to do it If the race is close I am sure a day or two which he could spend in California a week before the election would tip the scales

I am sure you will agree with me and will do everything possible to see if something of this kind cannot be worked out Regardless of what happens you may want to advise Mr Carlson directly of your appreciation of his interest

I hope you are correct in your estimate of a 400000 majority It sounds good anyway

With best personal wishes

Sincerely yours

~ ELWOOD J ROBINSON President

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Director Nixon for Governor Headquarters 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 California

Dear Bob

Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr Werner Carlson of the Loma Linda Food Company which I think merits very careful consideration You will remember it was through Mr Carlsons good offices that I was able to arrange the meeting with Dick and Elder Bietz President of the Pacific Coast Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches

I realize it may pose a considerable problem to get General Eisenhower to return to California However in view of the greatly increased interest the General is taking in politics and his close friendship with Dick he might be willing to do it If the race is close I am sure a day or two which he could spend in California a week before the election would tip the scales

I am sure you will agree with me and will do everything possible to see if something of this kind cannot be worked out Regardless of what happens you may want to advise Mr Carlson directly of your appreciation of his interest

I hope you are correct in your estimate of a 400000 majority It sounds good anyway

With best personal wishes

Sincerely yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Director Nixon for Governor Headquarters 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 California

Dear Bob

Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr Werner Carlson of the Loma Linda Food Company which I think merits very careful consideration You will remember it was through Mr Carlsons good offices that I was able to arrange the meeting with Dick and Elder Bietz President of the Pacific Coast Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches

I realize it may pose a considerable problem to get General Eisenhower to return to California However in view of the greatly increased interest the General is taking in politics and his close friendship with Dick he might be willing to do it If the race is close I am sure a day or two which he could spend in California a week before the election would tip the scales

I am sure you will agree with me and will do everything possible to see if something of this kind cannot be worked out Regardless of what happens you may want to advise Mr Carlson directly of your appreciation of his interest

I hope you are correct in your estimate of a 400000 majority It sounds good anyway

With best personal wishes

Sincerely yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Director Nixon for Governor Headquarters 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 California

Dear Bob

Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr Werner Carlson of the Loma Linda Food Company which I think merits very careful consideration You will remember it was through Mr Carlsons good offices that I was able to arrange the meeting with Dick and Elder Bietz President of the Pacific Coast Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches

I realize it may pose a considerable problem to get General Eisenhower to return to California However in view of the greatly increased interest the General is taking in politics and his close friendship with Dick he might be willing to do it If the race is close I am sure a day or two which he could spend in California a week before the election would tip the scales

I am sure you will agree with me and will do everything possible to see if something of this kind cannot be worked out Regardless of what happens you may want to advise Mr Carlson directly of your appreciation of his interest

I hope you are correct in your estimate of a 400000 majority It sounds good anyway

With best personal wishes

Sincerely yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Director Nixon for Governor Headquarters 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 California

Dear Bob

Enclosed is a copy of a letter from Mr Werner Carlson of the Loma Linda Food Company which I think merits very careful consideration You will remember it was through Mr Carlsons good offices that I was able to arrange the meeting with Dick and Elder Bietz President of the Pacific Coast Conference of the Seventh Day Adventist Churches

I realize it may pose a considerable problem to get General Eisenhower to return to California However in view of the greatly increased interest the General is taking in politics and his close friendship with Dick he might be willing to do it If the race is close I am sure a day or two which he could spend in California a week before the election would tip the scales

I am sure you will agree with me and will do everything possible to see if something of this kind cannot be worked out Regardless of what happens you may want to advise Mr Carlson directly of your appreciation of his interest

I hope you are correct in your estimate of a 400000 majority It sounds good anyway

With best personal wishes

Sincerely yours

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Moot sincer e]y yours

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am

Mr H R Haldeman Campaign Manager NIXON FOR GOvmNOR 3908 Wilshire Boulevard Los Angeles 5 Cal ifornia

Dear Mr Haldeman

Upon rrw arrival in California tomside ~rmanently I expressed to Mr Nixon a keen d esr-e to engage in some tangible campaign work Since then I have been in contact with Dick Ports

In 1952 the Republican National Conunittee arranged for me to take a leave of absence from ruy newspaper job in NEW York aid join th e campaign staff of Mr Nixon I travelled with Mr Nixon md his staff on behalf of the minority vote

I have obtained much added and valuable experience since then and am arndous to perform a similar servi ce during the Vice Presidents guberlUltriaJ campaign at this time

Mr Nixon has often expressed an interest in garnering the minority vote I agree that it is a most important deciding factor in the State of California I would like to make an impact into that balance of paver vote for Mr Nixon

I have encIoeed a reanne for your files

I am free to travel throughout the state of Calidlornia during the campaign It is my opinion that we can start early and make inroads into Negro religious fraterna1 and women IS groups in the state This together with the endorsement of respected Negro leaders should combine to na ke an impressive showing at the polls

With best regards to menber s of the Nixon For Governor staff I am
