Goodell Papers at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library Bane 5, 1975 Dear Mrs. Strauss: My apologies for not getting this to you sooner. We received the check from the PCB about two weeks ago, and since then I have been literally going around in circles-- caroming off of three different offices. Consequently, bill paying was delayed. Fortunately, Bill reminded me of what we owed you, as he was whipping by my desk one day. So here it is. Thank you for your patience. SSecerely, Evelyn McCargar Mrs. Suzy Strauss 1570 Chestnut Street San Francisco, California 94123 BERALD R.FORD R. suzy strauss 1570 CHESTNUT STREET, SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA 94123 PHONE: (415) 673-4773 April 1, 1975 Dear Charlie, Oops! Now it's my turn to blush. I warned you that I find it a great deal more fun to handle the assignments (parti- cularly when said "assignment" is someone like you) than it is to sit down and concentrate on the mundane matter of charges and bills to render. Thus I am extraordinarily derelict in rendering this statement to you. Thank God I am more conscientious about my creditors and credit rating. I was properly (though gently) reprimanded by Bill for my tardiness and I really do apologize to you and your staff for any inconvenience this too-long delay has caused. It's a pity the deadline ran out as it did last night, but I was heartened by the last minute upsurge you had in letters and calls as reported here on the radio all day. San Fran- cisco's inimitable protestors had a last flurry of publicity today, with what they called a "burial" of the "unfair" clemency program. They were pictured on this evening's KQED news in front of the Federal Building, with trumpets blaring, placards waving, and still saying the same things they said when they confronted you in front of the Press Club in Jan. Now, then, let's find you more reasons to get out here again. Meanwhile, many thanks for that delightful evening with you and Pat. Please don't forget this Number One Fan here 3000 miles away. All the best, always, Suzy Snezy Strauss GERALD GERALD R. FORD P.S. Had a delightful session last night with yet another avid fan of yours: Tom Wicker, a long-time friend whose judgment I respect tremendously. He, too, has the good sense to realize what a fine gentleman you are, and joins me in hoping that there will always be a big role for you in serv- ing our government.
