I am sure you saw the two latest Star articles on public employee unionism. You may have missed the resolution by the Governors Conference (unanimous approval). In addition, a number of members spent two hours last week on the floor of the Senate discussing compulsory sector bargaining laws. Attached is a copy of the CR containing their remarks.

Marsh Jr. Counselor to the President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear John: Despite the phone call (which I really didn't arrange!), I do appreciate your taking a few minutes to talk with me following your talk at last week's Labor Relations luncheon group meeting. As I mentioned, I do hope you will find the time to meet with several key people on the subject of public employee bargaining legislation (more appropriately described by noted Labor Law Professor, Dr. Sylvester Petro, as compulsory public sector bargaining laws). While what I am talking about here may not be as immediately important as the "energy crisis, a growing body of Americans believe that the single most destructive element in today's economic and political affairs is the monopoly power of giant labor unions, fostered and protected by special privilege legislation. Last fall's election results furthered the possibility of extending such a destructive element in the private field to the public employment field. Evidence of this can be seen in the front page, 8-column article in the Star last month. What I have in mind is a briefing team composed of Dr. Petro, Reed Larson of the National Right to Work Committee and David Denholm of Public Service Research Council. I am confident that the dialogue opened up by such a briefing will make a substantial contribution to a better public understanding of the fundamental issues involved in so-called public employee collective bargaining labor legislation. By the way, the growth of that understanding should be helped considerably by a pending Senate floor discussion by several U.S. Senators on the meaning and ramifications of the enactment of compulsory sector bargaining laws. Mr. John O. Marsh, Jr. February 25, 1975 Page Two I look forward to hearing from you and working with your Russ Rourk in setting up this session. Sincerely, Hugh C. Newton P.S.

MARVIN MANDEL March 3, -1975 GOVERNOR Mr. Reed Larson National Right to Work Committee 8316 Arlington Boulevard Suite 600 Fairfax, Virginia 22030 Dear Mr. Larson: This will acknowledge receipt of your recent letter in which you let me know of your organization's feelings about public employee bargaining legislation. I am taking the liberty of enclosing a copy of a resolution that was adopted unanimously by the National Governors' Conference during its recent Winter Meeting in Washington, D. C. The resolution, in my view, accurately reflects the feelings of Governors and of the states on this sensitive issue. Sincerely, ManyMandel Governor PUBLIC EMPLOYEE RELATIONS The United States Congress is considering legislation which would provide to State and local government employees the right to organize and collectively bargain. This legislation would substan- tially replace individual state laws and procedures which now regu- late these activities with a uniform federal law. The National Governors' Conference opposes federal inter- vention in this area. It is the belief of the Nation's Governors that matters relating to the employees of State and local governments are within the sole jurisdiction of these units and are not properly the subject of federal legislation. The National Governors' Conference, in adopting this state- ment, takes no position on the principle of collective bargaining for public employees but states its firm commitment to the view that this is an area which should be left to the discretion of the several States.

Dear John: I have put down 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, May 28 as the date for our Right to Work briefing on public employee bargaining legislation. A few days before the meeting, I will call to confirm the session. We do hope that you will be able to arrange to have several of the key Domestic Council people on hand. It seems to us that the administration should be especially concerned with what is, we believe, the single most destructive element in today's economic and political affairs -- the monopoly power of giant labor unions, fostered and protected by special privilege legislation. If that power is extended to public employees, we will indeed be in deep trouble. And as I said earlier, we at the Right to Work Committee feel that we need meaningful communication and understanding with the White House to avoid a repeat of what happened in 1970 over postal reorganization and Right to Work. It is too bad that we cannot fit into the schedule sooner but I do appreciate the effort you have made. We look forward to meeting with you and others at the White House in a friendly and cooperative give-and-take session on compulsory public employee bargaining legislation. Sincerely, Hugh C.

We will hold the session in Room 102 of the Old Executive Office Building -- this is Bill Baroody's Conference Room. Hugh C. Newton, Director of Information for the above Committee, and two or three other gentlemen interested in the question of federal employee unions have a presentation they would like to make, and there will probably be some discussion afterwards. I would guess that the whole meeting should last no longer than 45 minutes. Thanks and see you then. Copy to: Bill Baroody
