John Francis followed in his father's political footsteps, serving as a Democratic U.S. Congressman (1933-1939), District Attorney of Los Angeles County (1940-1943), and running unsuccessfully for governor of California in the 1938 Democratic primary.  Henry Isidore (d. 1970) served in the U.S. diplomatic corps in Japan, Spain, and China. J. Paul Getty (1892-1976) was a wealthy independent oil producer who began buying and selling oil leases in Oklahoma in 1913. He acquired Pacific Western Oil Corp. in 1932 and soon gained control of several independent oil companies, later going on to invest in oil concerns in Saudi Arabia. A zealous art collector, he founded the J.

As I understand, some time ago you intimated to my brother Tom that you would in due season like to help the campaign.    The time has come to accept, assuming it is still available, your kind offer. We are about three months off from the nomination primaries in August. The fight is really in the primaries. Who-ever is nominated as the Democratic candidate will doubtless win over the Republican nominee in the November finals. Democaratic registration in California exceeds Republican by about one million. Thus the tremendous importance of the primaries and the nomination of the proper type of man. I think everybody here realizes that the contest is really between Culbert Olson, who has the Old Sinclair-Epic following and a considerable new radical support, and my brother John, whose viewpoints and inherited instincts would be, if he is elected, an assurance to property owners and business interests against subversive tendencies.     A campaign in a state as large as California is no easy or in-expensive undertaking. We have cheif headquarters here in Los Angeles, and branches in San Francisco, Sacramento, Fresno, Stockton, Oakland, San Jose, Long Beach and San Diego, and we want to open other branches.     The time for fullest activity has arrived. Our program - if we can raise the funds - calls for street sign-board advertising, radio talks, and display advertising in newspapers.
