Mr. Guth is a partner in a Philadelphia law firm. His PDS presents no problems. Ms. Hughes is an attorney associated with a Washington law firm. Her PDS reveals that her firm is registered as a foreign agent on behalf of two West German companies. I contacted Ms. Hughes, and alerted her to the prohibition of 18 U.S.C. § 219. She stated that she would check to determine if she were individually registered in the firm's registration, and would immediately de-register if that was the case. She stated that she did no foreign agent work for the German companies, but that she did occasionally do other legal work for them. I advised her, consistent with guidance we have received from the Department of Justice, that as long as she was not individually registered, and SO long as she did not do work for a client that would require her to register, she was not covered by 18 U.S.C. § 219. Both appointments may proceed. THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON March 4, 1986 MEMORANDUM FOR ROBERT H. TUTTLE FROM: FRED F.

FIELDING / All necessary clearances have been accomplished with regard to the following individual and he is ready for appointment by the President: Albert J. Ossman, Jr. - Member, National Historical Records and Publications Commission CC: Amy Weist Jane Dannenhauer John Roberts Catherine Bedell THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON February 10, 1986 MEMORANDUM FOR DIANNA G. HOLLAND FROM: JOHN G. ROBERTS SUBJECT: Reappointment of Albert J. Ossman, Jr., to the National Historical Records and. Publications Commission I have reviewed the Personal Data Statement submitted by Albert J.

Pursuant to 44 U.S.C. $ 2501, the President may appoint two members to the Commission who are "outstanding in the fields of the social or physical sciences."

S - THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON March 3, 1986 MEMORANDUM FOR DIANNA G. HOLLAND FROM: JOHN G. ROBERTS 92% SUBJECT: Appointment of Irving Goldstein to the President's National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee I have reviewed the Personal Data Statement submitted by Irving Goldstein in connection with his prospective appointment to the President's National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee. The Committee was established by Executive Order 12382 (September 13, 1982) to provide advice to the President and the Secretary of Defense on national security telecommuni- cations policy. Pursuant to the Executive Order, the President may appoint up to 30 members to the Committee, who "shall have particular knowledge and expertise in the field of telecommuni- cations and represent elements of the Nation's telecommuni- cations industry." Goldstein is the Chairman and CEO of Comsat, and thus clearly satisfies the prerequisites for appointment. Comsat has extensive dealings with the Federal government. Members serve on this Committee in a representative capacity, however, and Comsat is a fairly unique element of the telecommunications industry, so such potential conflicts cannot constitute a bar to appointment. Goldstein serves as a Director of a Panamanian corporation 40% owned by Comsat, but does not engage in propaganda activities for the foreign company and is not registered as a foreign agent. I have no objection to proceeding with this appointment.

HOLLAND FROM: JOHN G. ROBERTS open SUBJECT: Appointment of Roger E. Birk as United States National Chairman for U. N. Day I have reviewed the Personal Data Statement submitted by Roger E.
