March 23, 1962

Mr. Richard M. Nixon Pacific Mutual Building 523 West Sixth Street Los An@eles, California

Dear Dick: As you know san Francisco COPE will endorse candidates by 2/3 vote at its March 28th convention. In my opinion you probably would not re­ ceive their endorsement. However, if they do endorse for the Republican and Democratic primaries, they might be more likely to endorse you rather than Assemblyman Shell.

In line with your principle of facing directly those who might be op­ posed to you, I recommend that you make yourself available in the event we can obtain clearance for you to address the general convention on Wednesday next. Our San Francisco Endorsements Chairman, former Super­ visor Henry Rolph, heartily concurs in this recommendation.

We are making this recommendation in view of the strong labor union sentiment and support in San Francisco.

We understand that Mrs. Leopold is fully aware of the situation and undoubtedly she is making a recommendation regarding this COPE meeting. My own recommendation is based not on the overall statewide labor vote strategy but upon the strategy of importance in San Francisco.

You are certainly waging a fighting campaign and enthusiasm for your candidacy is high in San Francisco.

Sincerely yours, (1!au- Alan H. Nichols, Chairman San Francisco Nixon for Governor Committee CC: Mr. H. R. Haldeman Mrs. Alice Leopold Mr. Henry Rolph

Corwin has asked that we send all available literature and other material to Dan Russell at KEZY. He should get any brochures that we publish and anything you feel will be helpful to him in preparing editorials for broadcast. This is obviously a real asset and should be properly handled.
