Reagan, Ronald. Three Typed Letters Signed ("Ron") two as governor of California (Sacramento, 12 Sept. 1968 and13 May 1969), and one (Los Angeles, 5 Apr. 1979) as the former governor considers a run for the presidency. All to business executive Charles J. Broska, with excellent content. All fine. The first states, "…I believe we can make a great contribution -- one which might even influence the national government -- if we can continue to make gains with regard to common sense in government…." The second discusses the welfare system in California: "…I'm sure something is going to be done to level up the welfare payments to give some relief to states like ours who have been hit so hard by the Supreme Court decision on residency requirements….there are just a great many people who want to live in California. Our attraction is over and above that of having the required dollars…." The third discusses Reagan's ideas on conservation and energy, and his candidacy: "…the answer to our energy problem is an energetic program of increasing our own supply….I believe it could be done if the government would get off the back of the energy industry and turn it loose in the free marketplace….I think it is far too early to announce a candidacy….I think we're wearing our people out by not giving them any rest at all between campaigns. On the other hand, I must conduct myself on the basis that I will be a candidate…I expect to announce a decision in late summer or early fall, but, just between us, I know what the answer will be."
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,500.
