I had hoped that the President would see these events as providing potentially attractive platforms for demonstrating his interest in domestic economic issues, especially the competitiveness of U.S. industry and the need for strong R&D commitments. Last week, to my great disappointment, I received a note from his Appoint- ments Office declining his participation in either event. Personally, I think the President is overlooking a tremendous political opportunity to showcase his commitment to strengthening the competitiveness of American Industry. The Jefferson North complex is exactly the kind of backdrop he would need to deliver such a message. Jefferson's largely black work force is being totally retrained to function in a modern, hi-tech facility. The plant is located in a black area that is badly neglected and economically devastated. Jefferson is a symbol of our commitment not only to the American automobile business, but to urban work forces everywhere. We expect to have an excellent turnout of the national black leadership and this should offer the President a unique opportunity to show his concern and commitment to the black community in general. I would deeply appreciate your personal involvement in reviewing the bidding for this request with the President. I am attaching a handwritten note to the President that you might give him if you think it appropriate. We are relatively flexible on dates for a Jefferson dedication; if the Technology Center is more appealing, we would have a little wiggle room (a week either way) for the planned October 15 event. I know the President could take maximum advantage of these two opportunities and we will bend over backwards to make them as appealing as possible. Sincerely, Lee.

National Network To Prevent Birth Defects Box 15309, Southeast Station, Washington, D.C. 20003, 202 543-5450 August 5, 1991 Gov. John Sununu Chief of Staff The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Gov. Sununu, Do the criminal statutes allow Dr. Sullivan to spend $100 million a year through Medicaid to finance the illegal trade in addictive drugs on the official "controlled substances list"? The Department of Justice writes that they are unable to answer this question for a citizen group. The enclosed petition redirects that question to Dr. Sullivan of the Department of Health and Human Services. We hope that we will get a response from him in the near future. While Medicare does not finance drug purchases, they do pay for medical treatment for drug overdoses and physician visits for the intent of receiving addictive drugs. They could do a lot more towards interesting the State governments to adopt the triplicate form program pioneered by New York State. As you will recall, the New York State triplicate prescription form for drugs on the official controlled subtances list costs 25 cents a prescription, and has saved New York State $24 million a year just for one class of drugs, the benzodiazepines which include Valium and Librium. Total costs for the nation from Medicaid payments for addictive drugs probably reach $1 billion a year, which would seem like a pleasant savings for the American taxpayer.

Sununu Chief of Staff Executive Office of the President 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Governor Sununu: As immediate past President and Chairman of the Board of the National District Attorney's Association, I have had the pleasure of working closely with the Department of Justice on a number of issues. During the past year, we have enjoyed an unprecedented era of cooperation and mutual support between the Department of Justice and the other 8,000 District Attorneys that make up the NDAA. Bill Barr has had much to do with forging this close working relationship. His leadership and tireless efforts on a broad range of issues important to law enforcement have won him the trust and respect of prosecutors around the country. I urge you to consider Bill Barr as a successor to Dick Thornburgh. As we continue to seek enactment of the President's anti-crime legislation and launch a host of new cooperative law enforcement ventures, we cannot afford to lose the close working relationship between the NDAA and the Department of Justice.

This would reauthorize the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs for an additional five years, address the Dole V. United Steelworkers decision and require the government-wide goal to reduce the aggregate paperwork burden by five percent. A strong unequivocal statement of support by the Administration is crucial. We must minimize the paperwork which is so out of hand. We, the members of NAM and Gilmore Valve look forward to the President's leadership for S.1139. Thank you sincerely, ST.D Susan G.

The VA's Robert Eidson, chairman of the site selection board, told reporters when he visited our site -- This site is technically and environmentally really sound. It's high and dry, close to Interstate 4, and the package of infrastructure and road accessibility is excellent. Florida Today, July 18, 1991 That's quite a strong statement to make publicly. If we win the on merits, I don't want to lose on politics. I recently received a June 21 memo written by the Brevard county developer who is pushing that location. Brevard's biggest hope appears to be that "in particular, Sonny Montgomery has already gone on record as to his preference for the Brevard location." I know that you would not want ANY Member of Congress to exercise improper influence over an executive branch decision. That's why I wanted to bring this to your attention. Thanks for your continued interest in this issue.

John Sununu Chief of Staff The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Gov. Sununu, Enclosed is a petition to the Environmental Protection Agency, asking them to remove aluminum from the drinking water. The evidence that aluminum is the primary cause of Alzheimer's Disease is piling up, and very hard to deny. It is possible to identify in advance which people -will get the disease, by measuring the capacity of their blood to absorb aluminum. Secondly, it is possible to arrest the progression of Alzheimer's Disease by chelating the aluminum out of the body and brain of victims. Removal of aluminum from drinking water, and substitution of alternative approaches such as ferric chloride, a proven technology, has the potential of reducing the medical bill of the nation by $10 to $27 billion a year, as outlined in the petition. That should help substantially with costs of Medicaid and Medicare. The Army Corps of Engineers adds aluminum to the drinking water of Washington, D.C. We certainly hope something can be done about this situation. With best regards, Enh Jansson Erik Jansson, Nat. Coord.

C. 20515 Dear Governor: It gives me great pleasure to inform you of the 50th Anniversary of Dr. Donald S. and Irene K. Ewing of Greenfield, New Hampshire. Dr. Ewing, now retired, was the Pastor for more than 35 years of Trinitarian Congregational Church in Wayland and is very dear to Aubrey Jones and to me. I am writing to ask if you would arrange to have congratulatory greetings sent to Donald and Irene for this wonderful occasion. Please send the greetings to their daughter, Mrs. Andrew Gosnell, Post Office Box 537, 134 South Main Street, Seabrook, New Hampshire 03874. Their anniversary date is October 11th, and it would be wonderful if the President's greetings could be received by the first of October. Thank you for your help in this matter. Sincerely, Judy Ide CC: Rev. and Mrs. Andrew Gosnell P.S. Don't give up the fight, the country and the President need you! We'll pray for you and Nancy. I saw Aubrey recently and although his health has put drastic limitations on his activities, his family has drawn closer and is keeping him occupied.

In view of Mr. Frohnmayer's statements, as well as his conduct in reference to funding obscene and pornographic art, I believe he has shown himself to be wholly unsuited for such a post of responsibility and discretion. Taxpayers have a justified dubiety of government when they read their tax dollars are going to fund truly offensive and repugnant so-called "works of art." Mr. Frohnmayer's judgments, or lack thereof, surely disqualify him for this position that should be held by a person of sensitivity to the public trust he holds. Please consider the damage or enhancement the Chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts can bring to the Bush Administration and our nation. Mr. Frohnmayer obviously should be replaced! Sincerely, desler W.Johnson LESLIE WHITING JOHNSON State Representative LWJ/cd P.D. Please accept my thanks for the wonderful job you are doing. Keep up the good work. L.J.

H. which was established in 1919 by my Dad. We have been able to progress over the years and have been a vital cog in the local economic environment. During the season of 1988 we employed (63) people. Our gross sales of boats was $7,661,238 in 1988. In 1989 comparative sales went down to $5,277,302 because of the slide in the economy. In 1990 we experienced another decline of $3,943,550 of which we sold $1,215,080 or 30.8%, (six boats) of over $100,000 each, which would be about normal percentagewise, 30% of sales. At this point in our current season, which is about half over, we have not sold one boat over $100,000 and yet our sales of under $100,000 each has kept pace with 1990, "thank God". The big boat business usually takes place in the early months of the season. Although the economy has greatly affected our boat selling profit center, over the last (2) years, 1989 and 1990, it looks like we will drop another 30% because of the Boat Luxury Tax. We are now down to (26) employees and because of the tax we'll have to cut more people from the payroll. Although we did sell one boat for over $200,000 last December; incidentally, the customer bought it then to avoid the tax which became effective in 1991, it appears we will not sell one boat in 1991 of over $100,000. From experience on the floor the potential big boat customer is refusing to buy because of the Luxury Tax even though N. H. has no sales tax as other states do. Union Avenue P.O. Box 6145 . Laconia, New Hampshire 03246-6145 Telephone (603) 524-6661 . Fax 524-0673 Chris* Craft® Oday SeaRay® I believe it is the principle of the tax plus it appears to be unpatriotic to buy a boat over $100,000 now in this country. In the final analysis this Luxury Tax will cost us 30% of our sales and again, will require another cut in our payroll. Things are bad enough as they are without this added burden. It is easy to be critical of our Congress. However, to be helpful, I would like to suggest that if it is necessary to impose a luxury tax, why single out one segment of the industry. Why not tax all recreational activities in a small way, say 1% of potential cost or sales and have it collected at the manu- facturers level like gasoline and be fair to everyone. Just think of the fishing, golf, tennis and other segments of the recreational industry, 1%, now you are talking real money. Please consider repealing this tax and help save the boating industry and prevent another business from failing.
