Mr. Buchen's office suggested that I send the enclosed letter to President Ford via your office. OFFICERS & BOARD MEMBERS Enclosed is a membership roster of our Association. Since this list was published at least fifteen new members have been added, President GAYLE CARSON and there are thirty applications being processed now. Charm Modeling Agency 333 Alcazar Avenue Coral Gables, Florida 33134 The Association has been growing in stature every year, and the 1st V.P. MARGARET CORNELL New York Convention has been increasing in attendance every year. Flair Career College Most of the delegates are women, and they come from all over the 9301 Candelaria, N.E. Albuquerque, N. Mexico 87112 country, as far afield as Guam and Puerto Rico. 2nd V.P. ELEANOR FULCHER Eleanor Fulcher Ltd. This year we would like to honor Mrs. Eileen Ford, whose husband 667 Yonge Street coincidentally is named Gerald, and known throughout the industry Toronto 5, Ontario, Canada as Jerry Ford. Indeed, at this time, the Name "Ford" is the biggest Secy. BETTY RASNIC in modeling, and has been for many many years. Rasnic's Finishing School 2400 Merchant Drive, N.W.

ARTHA WOODS modeling, we hope that he will consider making an appearance at the Artha-Jon School of Modeling 1975 meeting. Should this materialize, we could certainly guaranty 1937 E. 89th Street Cleveland, Ohio 44106 an audience of some 2200 for the occasion, the Convention delegates plus leaders from advertising agencies, magazines, newspapers, Parl. GEORGETTE K. CALLAS John Robert Powers School television, and the creative arts such as photography and illustration 203 S. W. 9th Avenue all of whom have worked with the FordAAgency over the years. It Portland, Oregon 97205 could be a very important gathering. BOARD MEMBERS To make it even more of an "old home week" affair, I have suggested LEONARD BASKIN that Candy Jones, herself a great figure in the history of modeling, John Robert Powers School of Hawaii, Inc. and a friend of the President, could make the introduction. 1.270 Queen Emma St., Suite 504 Honolulu, Hawaii 96813 The dates of the Convention are March 26-30th. I would suggest the night of Wednesday the 26th, or Thursday the 27th, as being the DAWN DOYLE John Robert Powers School most suitable in that pre-Easter week. 1237 E. Las Olas Blvd. Ft.

The primary purpose of our organization is to set standards in the 667 Yonge Street Toronto 5, Ontario, Canada field. Secy. BETTY RASNIC Rasnic's Finishing School At our 1975 Convention we plan to honor Mrs. Eileen Ford, head of 2400 Merchant Drive, N.W.

ARTHA WOODS Artha-Jon School of Modeling Besides the convention delegates, (we anticipate at least 900 from 1937 E. 89th Street all over the country, mostly women), we are asking leaders in Cleveland, Ohio 44106 advertising, comercial television, and all phases of the media.

George suggested that I write the above letter to Mr. Terrence O'Donnell and hope for the best. Can you advise whether or not this letter from Terrence O'Donnell has any significance?

The President is most appreciative of your thoughtful- ness of him. I know you will understand, though, it is not possible to commit his schedule for a date so far into the future. He will be pleased to have you renew your invitation around mid-March and at that time give it careful consideration in light of the schedule for May.

Box 1380 Lansing, Michigan 48904 Dear Mr. Kelly: In light of the recent change of Office, it has become necessary to carefully review President Ford's schedule of activities. While it was hoped that many of his invitations could be accepted, it will not now be possible for him to accept your invitation to address the National Association of Independent Insurance Adjusters at the Association's Annual Convention to be held at Colorado Springs, in May of 1975.

C. 20500 Dear Mr. Rustand: I attempted to telephone you in an effort to convey my and our Association's best wishes and congratulations to our new President of the United States. I certainly realize that the assumption of his new duties will put a tremen- dous strain on him and will probably cause much reshuffling of his schedule. I appreciate also the fact that you, personally, are probably undergoing tremendous strain in this regard. It is my fondest hope that President Ford will still consider appearing at our convention at Colorado Springs, Colorado in May of 1975. We, of course, realize that there are many more important dates for President Ford to be thinking about rather than our little Association's meeting, however, our group does epitomize the small businessman and President Ford's appearance at our convention might just possibly be symbolic and give small businessmen all over this nation some tangible evidence that they are thought of and have some importance. Once again, if there is anything at all that can be done to help us, I know that members of our Association will be extremely grateful. Again, extend our congratulations and assure President Ford of our every support. Sincerely yours Dim. July FORD is GENALD LIBRAN T. H. Kelly THK:js CC: Mr. Philip W.

I've also watched with pride as Presi- dent Ford has taken over this office. I'm glad to see that he is not afraid to do what he feels is right regardless of public sentiment. I personally am in complete accord with his handling of the Nixon situa- tion, even though I feel his timing was a little off. I would like to ask a slight favor of you. The Retail Jewelers of America, of which I am a past Vice-President, have asked if there is any possibility of the President and Mrs. Ford to attend either their Spring or Fall International Trade Fair and Convention. I know that large volumes of mail do arrive at the White House daily and would appreciate it if you could give me the name of the President's personal secretary who I could contact regarding this. If you could send me this in- formation I would be most indebted to you. With best personal regards, Thomas S.

Buchen Counsel to the President The White House Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. Buchen: The Association of American Universities, an association of the major graduate (and research) universities of the United States, meets in Washington on October 22 and 23. The meeting is attended by the presidents of the member universities. In the past, the President of the United States has occasionally invited the group to the White House for a discussion about national higher education and research problems. It has occurred to me that President Ford might find an opportunity to meet with this group both interesting and extremely useful. The AAU has a Washington Office and an Executive Secretary, Mr. Charles Kidd. Incidentally, the recent Chairman of the group has been Dr. Robben W. Fleming, President of the University of Michigan. Sincerely yours, Jerome B. Wiesner President JBW jh THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 20, 1974 MEMORANDUM FOR: ALEXANDER HAIG FROM: WARREN RUSTANDUSR SUBJECT: Request for early approval on Presidential schedule This is to request early approval on the following schedule items.

Secretary Simon recommends as an excellent opportunity for the President to offer his views and philosophy about the U.S. role in the world economy before a distinguished and representative audience of finance ministers and bank governors from 126 nations.

It may be that you would want to glance at these when they come in, so you can make your decisions known -- if there may be a reason for or against a particular decision. & FORD O.K.

It may be important to the President to drop by at this party and have a drink with the Senators. Many of them have questions about the tact of recent Presidential decisions and potential decisions on legislation pending. It is important that the Presi- dent solidify his support in the conservative community of the Senate and this would be a very pleasant way of doing it. Bill Timmons indicates strong interest in having the President do this dropby. It is an informal buffet supper (country music - country clothes) starting at 7:00 p.m. - 3930 W.

This group of ten executives represent approximately 60 national World Affairs organizations, all of which work closely with the Department of State and other government and private international organizations in promoting programs concerned with foreign affairs. If your busy schedule would allow it, the board would consider it a great privilege to have a very brief meeting with you to express its pleasure in your administration - and the fact that for many years the World Affairs Council of Grand Rapids has counted you one of its most interested and enthusiastic members.
