RONALD REAGAN ON HIS PERSONAL FINANCES During my last year as Governor, California law provided for public filing of Statements of Economic Interests. On January 30, 1975, I filed such a Statement covering the period April 1, 1974 through January 6, 1975, the conclusion of my second term as Governor. That Statement is substantially correct today, except that I no longer have any interests in the Yearling Row Ranch or the Reagan Cattle Co. My last tax returns for the five years 1970 through 1974 show federal and state income taxes and local property taxes totaling $130,788.00, an average $26,157.00 per year. My salary as Governor during those years totaled $240,460.00, an average of $48,092.00. Since leaving office, I have placed such assets as I have in a blind trust. The trust will continue at least for the duration of the time I am a candidate and under its terms I can neither inquire of the trustees' action, nor can they inform me of their actions. The trustees may deal with these assets as they see fit without my permission. The trustees are Justin Dart, William French Smith and William Wilson. 1/26/76 ANV9817 GERALD R.

Sitomer Staff correspondent of The Christian Science Monitor Los Angeles Sharpened attacks by Ronald Reagan on President Ford here raise doubt about the prospects of Republican Party unity after the August convention, according to expert observers. The former California Governor now is taking aim at Mr. Ford for "a developing pattern of secrecy" in foreign policy Mr. Reagan sharply criticizes the President and his administration for alleged "secret nego- tiations" with Fidel Castro's Cuba, with Hanoi (in trying to normalize relations), and over the Panama Canal. Up to recently, Mr. Reagan's attacks on the administration were broadly couched and not directly focused on Mr. Ford. But not any more The GOP challenger appears to be zeroing in on the President's al- leged ineffectiveness overseas. Mr. Reagan hints that if present policies are continued, U.S. defenses will be weakened and the nation will be vulnerable to outside influences. Among those who privately admit that this line of attack is in- flammatory and will likely make intraparty conciliation virtually impos- sible after a Republican nominee is chosen are some Ford strategists. And Mr. Reagan himself does little to reassure Republicans that such unity is on the horizon. Please turn to Page 6 Reagan steps up attack on Ford Continued from Page 1 mands of Mr. Reagan. and the Republican Breakfasting with reporters, he stated (as he right.
