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.

MEMORANDUM 6-22-62
To: All Staff Members
From: Bob Haldeman
In the future, when suggesting a letter or
message be written for an RN signature, please attach a
draft of what the letter or message should contain.
Under no circumstances will such a request be
considered without such a draft. It is imperative every
effort be made to assist the mail office to this extent.
As in the past, !!! such requests should be directed
to my office for approval.

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.

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.

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

how to do things.
I would like to see at the end of this week or the first of next week

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

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

be stepped up between now and June 5.
The progress reports from all of these people -
