The American Council of Young Political Leaders was found- ed in 1966 by a group of young politically active Americans Members Robert E. B. Allen concerned about the security of the United States in an Phoenix. Arizona increasingly volatile international climate. Confronted Hon. Martin Anderson with a future global outlook of equal if not greater Washington, D.C. uncertainty, the ACYPL's founders assessed their own Severin Beliveau depth of understanding of international issues, found them- Augusta, Maine Marjorie Craig Benton selves wanting, and set out to gain new levels of competence Evanston, Illinois commensurate with their own civic and political aspirations. Hon Michael Deaver Washington, D.C. The concept of learning through firsthand experience led Hon. Elizabeth Hanford Dole Washington, D.C. quickly to ACYPL's programmatic basis in the exchange of Hon. Pierre S. duPont delegations, first with young political counterparts in Dover, Delaware the NATO countries of Western Europe. Funding for ACYPL's John Hoving first year of operation was provided by the Ford Foundation. Cincinnati, Ohio William J. Hybl Colorado Springs, Colorado So successful were those exchanges that the Department of State committed funds under the Mutual Educational and Hon. Clifford P. Kelley Chicago, Illinois Cultural Exchange Act to continue and strengthen ACYPL's Arthur Reef programmatic base. Throughout its sixteen years, ACYPL's New York. New York principal source of funds has been this legislation, Dr. Olin Robison Middlebury, Vermont administered first through the State Department, then Hon.

Since 1966, more than Stuart P. Ross 1,500 young men and women--half from the U.S. and an Washington, D.C. equal number from 41 other countries--have shared the T. Timothy Ryan, Jr. unique experience of international travel and one-to- Washington, D.C. one communication. But it is not the number of young 426 C Street, N.E., Third Floor, Washington, D.C. 20002 global travelers that distinguishes the ACYPL in the international exchange community. It is its strategic and increasingly crucial mission: Fosterin the readiness of future political leaders to function effectively in the complex arena of foreign policy. In tandem with this mission for young Americans, ACYPL brings true global dimension to its service by welcoming young foreign political leaders to the United States. Here they gain first hand insights into the American political process affecting our nation's foreign and domestic policies. A recently conducted survey of the ACYPL Board of Trustees by an independen consultant revealed a compelling consensus of the need for heightened aware ness and support from the private sector--corporations, foundations, the university community, and private citizens--if ACYPL is to fulfill its increasingly important potential service in the interests of national security and a more coherent, peaceful world in the decade of the 1980's. Early response to our efforts is encouraging. Recent successes with the Tinker and Potter Foundations, G.D. Searle and Company and many corporation tions are exemplary. and other organizations that have participated as hosts of visiting delega- Our priority during the fiscal period is to establish a special fund that will enable us to broaden ACYPL's base of programmatic and recurrent annual support from the private sector. In effect, we seek such a fund to extend our communictions with the private sector, thereby securing increasing financial support for an expanding international exchange program, and to create significant new linkages with the nation's academic community of international scholars and students. To those ends, we seek the help of the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States, and respectfully request consideration of a grant in the sum of $10,000. Such a grant would be used to advance our special planning and philanthropic support initiatives during the current fiscal period ending October 31, 1982. At the conclusion of that period, we would be pleased to provide a detailed account of accomplishments made possible through the generous assistance of Equitable.

Spencer Oliver exchange study tours for young American political leaders Washington, D.C. and their counterparts from around the world. Members Robert E. B. Allen Phoenix, Arizona The ACYPL was founded in 1966 by a group of young Hon. Martin Anderson and politically active Americans who were concerned about Washington, D.C. the security of the United States in an increasingly Severin Beliveau volatile international climate. They found that the first- Augusta, Maine hand experience of meeting with their peers from the Marjorie Craig Benton Evanston, Illinois NATO countries had a profound impact on them. No Hon. Michael Deaver second-hand testimony can fully convey the value of Washington, D.C. such exposure early in the careers of young political Hon. Elizabeth Hanford Dole leaders likely to be making policy decisions in the Washington, D.C. coming decades. (The ACYPL is the only organization that Hon Pierre S. duPont Dover, Delaware focuses on this select group.) What is true at the John Hoving summit seems even more so among young leaders: face- Cincinnati, Ohio to-face contact sharply increases trust together with William J. Hybi understanding. Colorado Springs, Colorado Hon. Clifford P. Kelley Chicago, Illinois From those beginnings in the mid-1960's, The ACYPL Anhur Reef has grown into an organization with reciprocal exchange New York, New York programs in more than 40 countries, involving some 1500 Dr. Olin Robison future leaders. The dire need for such programs then Middlebury, Vermont Hon. Donald Rumsfeld perceived is even greater today. Skokie, Illinois Randal C. Teague One of the center pieces of our exchange program Washington, D.C. has been a project every other year to bring young Hon. Sarah Weddington Washington, D.C. politicians from Western Europe and Canada to observe Justin P. Wilson the culmination of the American political process-- Nashville, Tennessee our national elections. We are now preparing for this LEGAL COUNSEL Stuart P. Ross Washington, D.C. T. Timothy Ryan, Jr. Washington, D.C. 426 C Street, N.E., Third Floor, Washington, D.C. 20002 Telephone 202/546-6010 Cable ACYPL exchange with plans to invite 25 young leaders from the NATO countries as described in the enclosed papers. The tentative schedule calls for a post-election seminar to be held in Denver to analyze the election and the political dynamics observed in four different parts of the United States. As you can imagine, this project is no small undertaking. The major part of the cost is being borne by funds provided through the United States International Communication Agency. Increasingly, because of rising costs and diminishing government resources, The ACYPL has turned to corporations and foundations to share in the participation and support of these important international programs. In this instance, we are seeking a grant in the amount of $7,500 from the Coors Foundation to partially pay for the costs of the seminar in Colorado. This would cover air fare and expenses in Colorado for major speakers, the facilities, and any special events that would be appropriate for the circumstances. These are costs which cannot be paid for from our government grant, but are, we believe, essential to the success of the seminar. In addition to the broad interests I have described, you should know that a number of Coloradans have participated in this program, and I enclose a list of them. I also am sending you a list of delegates to the last Election Study Tour, with their itinerary. (The post-election seminar was held in Nashville with The Potter Foundation supporting that event.) Thus, with the international, national, and regional interests served so well by our programs, we very much hope that the Coors Foundation will want to become involved with the ACYPL in this important and timely project. We would be happy to provide any additional information that you might need, or answer any questions you have. We look forward to hearing from you, and in the meantime, all good wishes, Sincerely Thomas R. Hutson, Executive Director Enclosures: ACYPL Information 1982 Election Study Tour Colorado Delegates 1980 Election Study Tour --Delegate List --Itinerary THE AMERICAN COUNCIL OF YOUNG POLITICAL LEADERS Since 1966, the American Council of Young Political Leaders has helped to prepare future political leaders to deal with the complex problems of foreign policy. The ACYPL seeks to provide opportunities for young American politicians to gain insight into the vital area of international affairs early in their careers. The ACYPL also serves to give young political leaders in other countries a better understanding of the American political process and the domestic framework for foreign policy decision making in the U.S. The American Council of Young Political Leaders has come to be recognized as unique among the commun- ity of foreign affairs organizations: It is the only organization that focuses on those individuals who are most likely to be making policy decisions in the decades ahead-young political leaders. It is a bipartisan organization and maintains a strictly bipartisan policy in all of its programs. Its Board of Trustees and participants include individuals from both major parties as well as independents. The ACYPL does not engage in lobbying and does not pass resolutions on political questions. It has established a worldwide network of political, business and academic contacts who, along with its Board of Trustees and staff, enable the ACYPL to arrange top quality programs. Because of its record of achievement, it receives an unprecedented level of official international cooperation from the U.S. government, multinational organizations and foreign governments. The American Council of Young Political Leaders strives to provide the knowledge and common ground upon which future leaders here and abroad can foster the personal relationships necessary to develop mutual awareness and understanding of common problems, opportunities and challenges. It is a private, non-profit organization, and all contributions to the Council are tax deductible. PROGRAMS Conferences The ACYPL organizes national foreign policy conferences at the Department of State for young political leaders from throughout the United States. Each conference attracts some 400 participants. These meetings provide an opportunity for state legislators, city council members, young Democratic and Republican leaders, county commissioners, party officials and political activists of all persuasions to be thoroughly briefed on the current foreign policy of the United States. Top officials of the Department of State and experts in all key areas appear before the sessions not only to talk and lecture, but also to answer questions and engage in sometime lively debates. Study Tours Overseas The ACYPL, with assistance from the International Communication Agency, annually sends at least eight to ten American delegations overseas. Since 1966, more than 700 politically active men and women have participated in these study tours. Programs with the Soviet Union, Mexico, and Europe have become annual events-but the overseas agenda continues to expand and today includes the Middle East, Eastern Europe, the Peoples' Republic of China, Brazil, India and a number of African countries. The tours arranged by the host country, in consultation with the U.S. Embassy and ACYPL/Washington, involve pre-trip briefings and in-country meetings and discussions with key government officials, political leaders, and private sector representatives. Many times a tour will be multinational in scope in order to emphasize international organizations such as the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the Organization for Economic Coopera- tion and Development, or to appreciate regional complexities as was experienced by a recent ACYPL delegation to Cairo, Tel Aviv, Amman, Damascus, Jidda and Khartoum. In addition, ACYPL delegations have had an official presence at various elections as "U.S. Observers". ACYPL delegations going to other countries are composed of young men and women who have already made a mark for themselves in the American political process, and who will more than likely go on to senior leadership positions. The ACYPL strives to ensure a balanced delegation that, without sacrificing quality, will assure representation of men and women of different backgrounds and viewpoints. In fact, only by maintaining such a balance will foreign host nations gain realistic insights into the full diversity of American perspectives. United States The ACYPL, again with assistance from the International Communication Agency, regularly hosts delega- tions of young political leaders from abroad for study tours of the United States. These tours provide an inside look at the way politics and government work at the local, state and national levels. They include meetings and discussions with key political and government officials, mini-seminars on topics of unique interest to politicians, special briefings on U.S. foreign policy, explanations of American political campaign techniques, visits and dinners with American counterparts and their families, and an appropriate amount of sightseeing and social functions. Because of the effective work of the Council, future leaders in many foreign countries look to the United States with greater knowledge, greater understanding and greater good-will. Seminars In conjunction with study tours for delegations of young politicians from abroad, the ACYPL organizes varying kinds of seminars, which may last four days or four hours. Through them an opportunity to discuss, to question, to debate and to reflect is provided. The ACYPL has had a number of seminars with the Committee of Youth Organizations of the Soviet Union. In each of these, an equal number of Americans and Soviets met for several days for discussions on politics, education, government and international affairs. Similar seminars are held on a multilateral and bilateral basis with Western Europe, Japan and Eastern European countries. Workshops The most recent addition to the ACYPL program portfolio is workshops-held around the coun- try-focusing on a specific country, region or issue. A generous grant from the Tinker Foundation will enable the ACYPL to sponsor several workshops on Latin American countries. The first of this series, "Mexico-Colossus of the South", was held four days before President Carter called upon President Portillo in Mexico City in March, 1979. During 1979, in recognition of the 30th anniversary of NATO, the ACYPL, in cooperation with the Atlantic Council of the United States, will also convene a series of workshops on the common security, economic and political concerns of the NATO countries. THE FUTURE The most worthwhile aspect of the American Council of Young Political Leaders' program is that it provides young political leaders with the opportunity to appreciate firsthand the interests, individuals and the inconsistencies which comprise international relations today, thereby better equipping them for the respon- sibilities of leadership. Thousands of outstanding young leaders-who are moving up through the political system-need the international affairs background and experience which the ACYPL provides. Their involvement is limited only by the extent to which the ACYPL can secure the financial resources necessary to sustain and expand its programs.

Third Floor Washington, D.C. 20002 Telephone: 202/546-6010 Cable: ACYPL friel work somether July 30, 1982 up The Honorable Michael Deaver Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of The White House Staff The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mike: As you know, one of our key objectives is to broaden the base of support for The American Council of Young Political Leaders. Several efforts are now underway: some Trustees have written to corporations to seek funds in support of a continuing and effective private sector development program; other Trustees and Council members are contacting corpo- rations with substantial interests in countries with which The ACYPL conducts exchanges; and plans are in the making to hold a major fund-raising event later this year. One thing that has hampered these endeavors is the lack of a current and attractive brochure that describes The ACYPL, its pro- grams and objectives, and most importantly, the high quality of its leadership. Some ground work has already been laid for this document, but it needs one more essential element: the visible and personal endorsement of The ACYPL by our Trustees. In advising us how to go about getting private sector support, David Jones has convinced me that corporations, foundations, and philanthropists will look first to what the organization's trustees are doing. This publication will immediately answer that question --at least, in part. For this combined brochure-"case statement" we are asking each Trustee to send us a photograph along with a brief statement -2- (a phrase, sentence or paragraph) that best describes your assess- ment of the value of The ACYPL and its programs. These endorse- ments and photographs would be featured throughout the document in an appropriate way. We are asking the same of former delegates who are in other positions of prominence, but are not presently on the Board of Trustees. Our target date for publication of this document, which will of course be supplied to you to assist in your own work on behalf of The ACYPL, is September lst. Therefore, we would greatly appreciate it if you could send us the photograph and statement by August 17th. With appreciation in advance for your cooperation and con- tinuing support, and best regards, Sincerely, Tom Huts Thomas R.

Deaver Deputy Chief of Staff Special Assistant to the President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Re: American Council of Young Political Leaders Dear Mike: In furtherance of various discussions which have been held in recent weeks with respect to the ACYPL, I think it would be useful to focus on how we might best proceed to assure a continued orderly participation of the White House in the exchanges which ACYPL carries out. This letter is designed to reach an understanding on whether the procedure which you, Peter McPherson and I have followed in this regard to date is to be followed in the future. As you know, the American Council of Young Political Leaders is a private, non-profit, tax-exempt organization. Organized in 1966, it sponsors exchanges between U.S. young political leaders and foreign young political leaders, with approximately one half of the delegations going abroad. It has a Council of several hundred members and a board of trustees of twenty-five. As you also know, Peter McPherson is the chairman of the Republican delegate selection subcommittee, but this relates to his capacity as an ACYPL trustee and not to his AID position. The delegate selection committee, consisting of six persons, acts as two subcommittees: one of three persons on the Republican side of the aisle, the other of three on the Democratic side, with each side making its own selections from nominations before it. Nominations usually exceed selections made therefrom by about 3 to 1. There are two members of the White House staff who are trustees of ACYPL: you and Mrs. Dole. ACYPL coordination with the White House on Republican nominations has been through you. This has been my agreement with the White House in my capacities as the secretariat for the Republican delegate selection sub- committee and, more recently, as President of ACYPL. VORYS, SATER, seymour & PEASE Mr. Michael K. Deaver June 16, 1982 Page two A growing awareness in the White House of ACYPL's potential has led increasingly to nominations by others. In no way is this letter intended to dampen what I interpret as unparalleled enthusiasm in the White House for this program, or the quality of those nominations. That enthusiasm is very much appreciated. But a recent communication (attached) from Ms. Wood in Ms. von Damm's office was not through you and seems by its text to have gone beyond a nomination and does not involve the White House staff. If our understanding has been amended in the White House by an agreement that Ms. von Damm or her staff will make nominations directly to me, as we now understand she or they intend to do, I should be notified of that by you. I simply think that all White House nominations should be through you, so we do not end up with confusion, risks and embarrassments. I regard Ms. von Damm's judgment highly and think her knowledge of people in the Republican Party is almost without parallel, and I want to continue to encourage her interest. In the meantime, should I regard this Pennsylvania nomination as a White House nomination? If so, if you would have Ms. von Damm provide me information on Mr. Holtzman's relationship to the White House, his background and his relationship to the issues affecting U.S. relations with Canada and Western Europe, principally NATO, we will consider it a nomination well made for a trip which we hope to finalize very soon. Warmest regards, Randal C. Teague /ks Enclosures Gardy thanks can you please Lay respond? 5/19 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON May 17, 1982 Mr. Jay Morris Assistant Administrator for External Affairs Agency for International Development 320 21st Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20523 Dear Jay: Upon the request of Helene, I rang Marc L. Holtzman to inform him of the trips being planned by AID on behalf of the American Council of Young Political Leaders. Marc would appreciate his name being placed on the manifest covering the trip to Canada and Western Europe, scheduled for October 23 to November 4, 1982. His address is 33 Sa- hara Drive, Kingston, PA. 18704. Please pass the above information on to Randy Teague. An acknowledgment from you or Randy will be appreciated.

The trip, which has just been scheduled, is soon, and it involves a large delegation (9 from each party). Nominees should have an understanding of Atlantic Alliance issues.
