C. 20002 Dear Bob: As you know I would like to work in the President's 1972 Campaign. Since my earlier request my situation has changed a little. I am now state Director of Finance for the Republican Party of Michigan. In this capacity I am developing our 1972 fund-raising activities to commence in November 1971 and conclude in June '72.leaving July to clean-up the loose ends. As of July-August I will be "freell to work in the campaign in any capacity that I can be of assistance. Getting involved at this late date may limit the opportunities available to me but I would like to suggest several areas in which I might be of service. 1. I advanced Mrs. Nixon during the 1970 campaign after we returned from Europe. I would be pleased to assume the responsibilities of her advance during the Convention and the ensuing periods as it may differ from the President's schedule. 2. With the experience I have had in fund-raising during the recent months it is conceivable that I could work with Herb Kalmbach in traveling about the Country soliciting campaign contributions. 3. Assist Ron Walker in the President's advance. Mr. H. R. Haldeman July 16, 1971 Page Two Leave a slot for me and while my Chinese isn't too good I would like to assist in that advance if the opportunity presents itself. Keep Smilin I • William J.

FROM: Thomas B. Evans, In order for our November 9 dinner chairmen to achieve maximum effectiveness, they must have enthusiasm and the individuals to whom they sell tickets must believe they have a good line of communications with the White House. I cannot recommend too highly the importance of inviting them to a stag dinner with the President aboard the Sequoia. This should be done in late August or sometime during the first two weeks of September. All of our chairmen are out standing leaders, many of whom have known the President for years. The number would not exceed 30. MEMORANDUM ) THE WHITE HOUSE 1 WASHINGTON July 20, 1971 rvr..EMORANDUM FOR: LARRY HIGBY FROM: GORDON STRACHANG Harry Dent called today with several suggestions based on a recent conversation he had with Tom Evans at the RNC. The first concerned a memorandum Tom Evans sent to Haldeman today (attached). Evans' suggests that the President have a stag dinner aboard the Sequoia for the dinner chairmen. Dent agrees. I will forward this to Dwight for appropriate handling. The point is that Dent believes that all requests from Tom Evans to Haldeman or anyone else on the White House Staff should go through Dentl You may recall that this subject was never definitel~ answered in the series of memoranda discussing Harr~ent's role. I/One other point Harry D~t makes is that Tom Evans, Lyn il Nofziger and Ed DeBolt/ the three top offic.ials at the IRNC have not been in~o see the President recently. It sao;is Dent's OPin7'on.tat they should be given this opportunity At crunel/J117at.., r \M6~/oC' ADiY1fNISTRATJVEI Y CONFIDENTIAL ~uly 28, 1971 MEf.iORANDUM FOR I DWIGHT CHAPIN FROM: GORDON STRACHAN One additional input that you will want ooncerning the possible Presidential meeting with the State Chair men, whioh was a subject of my memorandum to you of yesterday, with the Tom Evans I1\8IQ() to Mr. Haldeman attached, is Haldeman' II suqqestion that pos•. ~bly the Eastern State Chairmen meet with the President in Washington while the western State Chairman meet with the President in San Clemente. This does not. mean that he .... approved of the meeting but just that the possibility of dividing the group geographically ia being considered. GS:lm THE WHITE HOUSE WAS H 1 N G'TON Administratively Confidential July 30, 1971 MEMORANDUM FOR: DWIGHT CHAPIN FROM: GORDON STRACHAN In the ongoing story of a presidential meeting with Republican State Chairmen, you should be aware of Harry Dent's request that the Southern Association of Republican State Chairmen have a "private meeting ll with the President as soon as possible • The Southern Chairmen are adamantly opposed to appealing the Austin (busing) decision. . These Southern Chairmen are obviously interested in substantive discussions with the President, whereas Tom Evans' request for State Chairmen to meet with the Presid.ent was primarily cosmetic. Maybe it would be in the President's interest to combine the two events. What happens next procedurally? Is the letter signed by all of the Southern Chairmen responded to substantively, merely acknowledged, or held until a decision is reached whether to schedule a meeting with the President or not? Please advise me as Mr. Haldeman has not seen Dent's cover memo nor the Southern Chairmen's letter. II' ...... II'I'MCDIt MIle PtJa ...... t. to,...... t., _. Bal...... _ ......

Haldeman Assistant to the President The Vvl1ite House Washington Dear Bob: It was good to talk with you this morning. I hope there will be a satisfactory outcome to the matter we discussed. The attached was received by the addressee, a friend of mine. He was quite disturbed by the letter(vide the marked portions), a;::d as:-(ec if I could send it on to someone who might 8<';C that th<.; "pitch" be radically altered. It would be surprising indeed if this letter raises money. With best regards, ARichard V. Allen to ROBERT J. BIRD 1140 CONNECTICUT AVENUE WASHINGTON, O. C. 200.36 June 11. 1971 . Hr. David M. Fleming 7505 Masters Drive Potomac. Haryland 20854 Dear Mr. Fleming: As a resident of Haryland, if you watch the national news broadcasts or read the Washington Post or New York IJ Times, I am sure you are convinced, in part at least. that' i President Nixon may be a one term President. I do not share the distorted view pr~sented by this portion of the media. President Nixon inherited a mess both on the international scene and on the domestic front. ~, Mis takes have been made but not enough, in my j ug,.gement, !. to persuade a majority of the American voters tha~ Senator McGovern, Teddy Kennedy or anyone of a dozen members ot F'p,e Senate, represe.z;t a palatable alternative. Of one thing we can be sure, the 1972 candidate of the oppos tion will be well financed. The traditional bankrolls of . that party will make money and talent available to the Democratic candidate. Don't let anyone tell you that we JI are better financed than the opposition, ~ ~ not. Three years ago you were one of many residents of Maryland who joined fu~ Associates. Your help was greatly appreciated then and the purpose of this letter is to re enlist your help for next year. We need you as an RN Associate NOW. I hope you will join us again for another "VICTORY" in 1972. .

OPPOSITIONS Some opponents of Revenue Sharing view it as a contravention of the public trust, because the proposal allows states and localities to use Fed eral tax funds without Federal control.

Some state and local officials think their pres ent programs will be curtailed or shortchanged by new priorities. They fear reduced funding because national income may not grow at the predicted rate. Some Federal administrators view Revenue Sharing as a threat to their employment should some Federal programs revert to state and local administration. Other opponents predict that Revenue Sharing will result in an increased Federal bureaucracy. Some view Revenue Sharing with suspicion, because they fear the competence, attitudes and honesty of some state and local administrators. The opposition fails to realize that Revenue Sharing will not only increase administrative ef ficiency and state and local decisional account ability, but also will result in new jobs as programs get under way.
