As recently as 1972 we supported his bid for reelection....(We) must now conclude that he is at the end of the political road." Also tear sheets of article, Historical Society of Southern California (Quarterly), date unknown, " 'Rabbits and radicals' - Richard Nixon's 1946 campaign against Jerry Voorhis" ; LAT news stories about Nixon as well as copies of the columns he wrote for the newspaper during 1961, commenting on national and international affairs in his capacity as ex-Vice President of the United States.
