Responsibility of Campaign Staff on Mail

One thing that would be very helpful in keeping up

with our mail is for you to immediately issue instructions

to all members of the campaign staff that under no circumstances

are they to suggest that a letter be written for my signature

to some individual without at least preparing a rough draft

as to what the letter should contain.

draft of what the letter or message should contain.

effort be made to assist the mail office to this extent.

As in the past, !!! such requests should be directed

Chico and Marysville activity (your 5/16 memo)

I checked on Ed Johnson's report that there is no

activity in Marysville and Chico, and find that our

organization bas been weak in Chico, but bas been doing an

excellent job in the Marysville area.

I am also .ssured that the Butte County situation

(Chico) bas heen corrected in recent weeks.

There are s.ven billboards in Butte County and

one in Yuba County.

Johnson says there is no activity in Marysville and

Chico. He was concerned and said there is Shell activity

Shell publicity, etc; , but none for Nixon.

Don't we have any billboards in that area? He has not

seen any -- nor any bumper stickers.

You better get a hold of Orrick and see whether there was

any follow up on my visit there where we had 1000 people.

Note: This is the Ed Johnson that Chad McClellan took him to see

at noon today.

Subject: Oakland Chairman --Finance Affair

Distribution:

I told the Oakland Chairman that you would call him on the

finance thing after June. They expected a call last week so if you have

not talked with him, please do so.

The reason I want you to call him is Bob Finch tells me he hasn't

been able to wor'k it out - just be sure that the Oakland man has been kept

informed. Let them know if we are not going to be able to do it as they

are holding a hall up there and have set the date already.

From: RN

Subject: Bob McKeen - Oakland

Distribution:

Bob McKeen of Oakland expressed concern about Contra Costa

County. He said that he felt there was need for a lot of work to be done

there. We are relying primarily, as you know, on a woman in that

area and she has generally impressed me when I have met her. There

is, however, a very strong County Chairman, Conti, as you know. It

would seem to me that you ought to do some personal checking into

the Contra Costa situation and Conti, who is somewhat of a prima donna,

might well be taken in on the get-out-the-vote drive and be urged strongly

to do everything he can to get out a big Republican vote. I think ~n this

instance a per sonal call from you to Conti might be in order or whatever

else you think is proper.

Richie Smith, the Area Chairman, is a good man but I don It

think is a particularly hard driver as far as the campaign is concerned,

and you should not rely completely on his evaluation.

I think that you ought to set up, on your own, daily staff meetings ~ with the research and campaign staffs -- certainly with the campaign ~ staffs so you can get daily reports from them on what they are pro-~

dueing in the way of visible campaign progress.

As I told you, I particularly want you to follow up on Carroll Arthts

activities in view of the very disturbing conversation I had up North with ~ Mrs. Qva1e who had had no invormation from our office on what to do or

how to do things.

I would like to see at the end of this week or the first of next week

from the top executives (eight or ten) of the campaign -- a rundown on what

they have done and what they propose to do. I believe the only way you can

speed these people up is for you to do with them what I have been trying to

do with the research crowd. I think you should have these meetings every

day and ride herd on them.

I want a progres s report from every member of

I have to find out what they are doing and how they are spending

their time. It seems to me this is the time they have to get

off their fannies and really go to work. This campaign must

be stepped up between now and June 5.

The progress reports from all of these people -

the paid people on our staff - would be very helpful for me

to see.
