THE PRESIDENT AND MRS. FORD'S VISIT TO
FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF GERMANY, POLAND,
FINLAND: ROMANIA, AND YUGOSLAVIA
SATURDAY - JULY 26, 1975
DAY #1
From: Terry O'Donnella
BACKGROUND
You, Mrs. Ford and Jack Ford will proceed by helicopter
to Andrews AFB, departing the South Lawn at 8:05 a.m.
The VP and Secretary Kissinger will accompany you.
Upon arrival at Andrews, you proceed to an "airport
stand" located in front of the press area to make
departure remarks. Following your remarks you will
board AF-1 for departure en route Bonn, Germany. Flying
time: 7 hours 15 minutes. Time Change: +5 hours.
Distance: 4,100 miles.
BONN ARRIVAL CEREMONY
The arrival at Bonn/Cologne Airport will be at 8:45 p.m.
local. You will be met by Chief of Protocol and Mrs. Franz-
Joachim Schoeller and Ambassador and Mrs. Martur J. Hillenbrand.
Ambassador Schoeller will serve as your escort throughout your
visit in Germany. There will be no formal ceremony and no
remarks at the airport. The formal "arrival ceremony" will
take place Sunday morning. After passing through a cordon
of troops you will board a helicopter for the 35 minute
flight to the Noervenich helopad where you will board a
motorcade for a 15 minute ride to Schloss Gymnich, your
residence. The remainder of the evening is free. Jack
is scheduled to go boar hunting at 3:00 a.m. with Baron
von Harrlach.
SCHLOSS GYMNICH
Schloss Gymnich is a moated castle with beautiful grounds
which dates back to the Twelfth Century. The present owner
and occupants, Baron Joerg Holzschuher von Harrlach, and
FORD
BENALD
LiBuany
his wife, the Baroness, are distant relatives to the original
Baron of feudal times. The castle has been leased to the
Federal Republic of Germany for a period of eight (8) years,
and is used alternatively between the Baron and his family,
and visiting dignitaries. It is also the site of international
conferences. The castle was "volunteered" to the German Third
Reich during World War II, and on VE Day was occupied by the
German High Command for the Luftwafa. The property was returned
to the Baron and his family after post war adjustments.
The Castle has been destroyed and rebuilt several times and
today combines Gothic, Baroque and Rococo elements. The
Knights of Gymnich, named after their Castle, won fame
during the crusades and played a key role.
CITY OF BONN - The city originated at the time of the Roman
general, Drusus, in 12 B.C. The city rights were confirmed
in 1244. Afterwards, it was the residence of the Cologne
Electors - Archbishops. Important Baroque buildings originate
from this period, e.g. today's university buildings and the
Poppelsdorf Schlob. In 1815, Bonn became Prussian, after a
short period of French rule. The Rhenish Friedrich Wilhelm
University was founded three years later. The city was badly
damaged by air raids during the Second World War. The
Parliamentary Council met in Bonn from September 1948 to
May 1949. This body passed the Basic Law for the Federal
Republic of Germany on May 8, 1949, and in the same year, Bonn
became the provisional Federal capital. Bonn is noted for the
Beethoven Festival, which is held every year, and has the most
modern theatre building in Germany, opened in 1965. The
population of Bonn is 300,000.
Attached at TAB A are maps of Europe, Germany and Bonn.

PALACE SCHAUMBURG
Built in 1859 as the retirement residence of a banker, the
Palace was purchased in 1890 by Prince Adolf Wilhelm Victor
of Schaumburg-Lippe, who was married to the Princess
Friderike Amalie Wilhelmine Viktoria, the sister of Emperor
Wilhelm II. The building was bought by the German govern-
ment shortly before the Second World War. After the war
the Palace served temporarily as a Belgian staff head-
quarters. Two days after Bonn had been chosen as the
provisional Federal capital, the Palace was designated
as the official residence of the Federal Chancellor and
remodeled to serve this purpose.
VILLA HAMMERSCHMIDT
Built in 1860 as the residence of a millionaire and changed
hands several times. After the war the villa was taken over
by the occupation authorities. The property was purchased
in 1950 by the Federal Republic of Germany. It was remodeled
and in 1951 occupied by the first Federal President, Professor
Theodor Heuss. Since that time the building has been the
official quarters of the Federal President, and its current
occupant is Federal President Walter Scheel.
KIRSCHGOENS - JOINT FRG/US MILITARY PICNIC
The history of the First Brigade Summer Picnic can be traced
back to the early formation of the U.S. Land Armed Forces.
As early as the 18th Century, units celebrated the organi-
zation of their unit. The gathering became more formalized
with the establishment of the Regimental Unit System.
Following World War II, the Regimental System was disbanded
in the Army with the exception of the Cavalry Regiment.
The elements that were left after the Regiment was split
were referred to as Battalions. These Battalions continue
the tradition of holding an organization day, though it may
not, in some cases, be held on the exact day of founding.
From this tradition comes the 1st Brigade, 3rd Armored
Division Summer Picnic. It is an annual event which allows
the members and families of all the Battalions in the Brigade
to "get together".

The stated goal of "Project Partnership" is to increase
mutual understanding among NATO soldiers by increasing
soldier-to-soldier contacts. Some 150 NATO units are
involved in the Project's "sister unit" program.
AYERS KASERNE
The 1st Brigade, 3rd Armored Division, is the major unit
located at Ayers Kaserne in Kirschgoens, Germany. The
kaserne was built on what was Hessian farmland until it
was taken over by the German Luftwaffe (Air Force) in the
1930's as an airfield. The air strip and support facili-
ties were completely destroyed in air raids during World
War II. Ayers Kaserne, built in 1952, under the direction
of the US Army, was named in honor of SSG Lovel E. Ayers
of Company B, 22nd Infantry Regiment. He was killed in
action near Prum, Germany, and was posthumously awarded
the Distinguished Service Cross.

RHINE RIVER CRUISE
President Sheel's dinner will be held on the MS DRACHENFELS,
owned by the Cologne-Duesseldorfer Company. The MS DRACHENFELS
was built in 1961 in Cologne and cost about $3 million. It
is one of the larges passenger boats in Europe and can carry
3,200 passengers standing, or 1,200 seated. The ship is 297'
long, 51' wide, and has a draft of 4.8'.
When President Scheel was inaugurated in 1974 an inauguration
party was held aboard the MS DRACHENFELS. In 1965 when Konrad
Adenauer died the ship carried the former Chancellor's body
from Cologne to his home at Rhoendorf. Other highlights of
the DRACHENFELS' history include a meeting of the European
Economic Council on board in 1961 and a cruise by President
De Gaulle of France in 1962.
The Captain of the MS DRACHENFELS is Captain Holst VON DER WERTH.
Capt. von der Werth was born in East Germany and is 43 years
old. He has worked for the Cologne-Duesseldorfer Company since
1953 and first held the position of Captain in 1965. He is
married, has 1. son and his family lives in Cologne.
The Koeln-Duesseldorfer River Company, owner of the MS
DRACHENFELS, is based in Cologne and next year will celebrate
its 150th anniversary. The company operates 24 passenger
boats plus a hydrofoil build in Russia. K/D employs about
500 people and is the largest firm of its type in the FRG.

major Rhine crossing during the assault on the
German heartland. The bridge has been since
destroyed but its pilings and towers remain and
are obvious.
Erpel, on left, across from Remagen is notable
for the 153-foot high cliff that towers over the
river and stands above the spot where the bridge
connected to the eastern bank.
Linz on left, the spot of a Presidential stop,
is a famous town known for the remains of many
middle ages and 17th-18th century buildings.
It is 1,100 years old (1974). Remains of the
old city walls can be seen. The church on the
hill was begun in the 14th century. The
population of Linz is about 6,000.
THE RHINELAND
The Rhine River originates in Switzerland and flows for 820
miles along the French-German border, through Germany and
Holland before emptying into the North Sea. It is one of
the most beautiful and popular tourist regions in the world,
particularly the portion which passes through Germany. It
is navigable for 500 miles and is the greatest European
artery of waterborne traffic. Since the Treaty of Vienna
in 1815 it has been an international waterway. The Rhine
is the heart of the FRG's 3,700 miles of inland waterways
and carries 75% of her inland water transport. Barges of
up to 1,500 tons utilize it.
rune
BERALD
Amount

The Rhine is the largest major river in the world which
flows from south to north, so that when one refers to
going "upstream" on the Rhine he is talking about going
south toward the Swiss border. The current is extra
strong and runs about 9 knots with increased velocity
in the narrow turns, of which there are many. The river
winds like a snake throughout Germany.
Because of the current, industrial development which has
contributed to pollution, and the vast amount of commer-
cial barge and tourist boat traffic on the river, swimming
is not advisable. Small boating is not the rule either,
except for kayaks. One of the most colorful sights on
the river, therefore, is the picture of long barges (on
which families live) from Switzerland, Germany, and the
Netherlands and other European countries plying the
waters with their trade. An onlooker will note the
difficulties many boats have in traversing the current
upstream and the relative ease with which they head north.
The Rhine wines are world famous (most notable the Reislings,
Sylvaners, and Traminers) and are somewhat sweeter in taste
than the Mosels. The Mosel River meets the Rhine at Koblenz,
further upstream from Remagen and not visited on the
Presidential trip. Of interest is the fact that in German
the Mosel is a "female" river (die Mosel) and the Rhine is
"male" (der Rhine). When they meet at Koblenz you have
what may be the world's only river marriage.
At Linz, it is expected that the wine offered the President
will be a local (Linzer) wine in the city's large ceremonial
cup. It is expected that President Scheel will also be
offered wine from the same cup.

MONDAY - JULY 28, 1975
DAY # 3
From:
Terry O'Donnell
BACKGROUND
Your first day in Poland will be an extremely active day involving a back-
to-back sequence of events and meetings with little personal time. The
pace of the schedule will be maintained throughout your visit to the non-
aligned countries and is reflective of their desires to maximize your exposure
throughout their countries and to their people.
ARRIVAL CEREMONY
The arrival ceremony, similar to the others in which you have participated
throughout Europe, will include Anthems, review of the troops, introductions
and remarks. Unique at this ceremony will be an opportunity to greet several
thousand citizens who will be on hand to witness the ceremony.
From the arrival ceremony, you will proceed to Wilanow Palace (your
residence) for a brief ceremonial gathering of the official parties. En
route, the motorcade will stop in two or three crowd locations where you
and the First Secretary will have an opportunity to get out of the car and
greet the citizens. After spending five or ten minutes with the official
parties at Wilanow, you will escort Mrs. Ford to your quarters for a
moment prior to your departure for the Wreath-Laying Ceremony at the
Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. This separation from your guests is
necessary to enable First Secretary and Mrs. Gierek to leave the Palace
grounds prior to your departure.

based on photographs, paintings, and architectural designs from the city's
archives.

Of the suffering and tragedy of World War II, Oswiecim has been
preserved by the Poles as a reminder of the four million persons,
representing 28 nationalities, who died after the concentration camp
opened in June, 1940. Actually, Oswiecim consisted of three camps
and 39 sub-camps. Over 12, 000 persons died daily at the peak of the
Nazi exterminations, a "Martyrdom Museum" exists along with other
graphic exhibits of the human devastation which occurred there. The
Monument "to the victims of Warsaw" created by Polish and Italian
architects and unveiled in 1966, is located at Camp "Birkenau". The
nearby city of Oswiecim is a small industrial center (Population:
approximately 50, 000) at the confluence of the Sola and Vistula Rivers,
about 35 miles from Krakow.
TOUR INSTITUTE OF PEDIATRICS OF THE MEDICAL ACADEMY OF KRAKOW
The Krakow Pediatrics Hospital, constructed with the assistance from private

and Research Center was opened in 1965 under the director of the Medical
Academy in Krakow. Last year, AID funds made it possible to open a new
research wing at the hospital. Since its opening over 500, 000 patients have
been treated and the research wing is conducting studies and researching
serious childhood diseases. It is anticipated that additional American
assistance will support the construction of a 300-bed rehabilitation center
in the future.

POOL REPORT
Mrs. Ford visits outdoor museum on island
July 31, 1975
Mrs. Ford's activities during the day were planned for wives of heads
of delegations of CSCE and other members of the delegation.
"We must have broken all speed limits" (from the Market place to the island)
Mrs. Ford said when she arrived at the open air museum on the Island
Seurasaari.
The island contai ns buildings and groups of buildings from every province of
Finland, representing typical local cultures and histories. Most buildings
in this "outdoor museum" date from the 18th and 19th centuries. Included on
the island are farmsteads, a watermill, a country store, a granary, and
church. There are samples of Finnish housing from a country cottage to a
farmhouse to a manor dwelling. all made of wooden logs, in various shapes
and sizes.
Each house was taken apart piece by piece, numbered, and reconstru cted
as it originally stood with furniture and utensils (except for the animals).
The bus which brought Mrs. Ford to the island took the "prettier" route. It
was winding and narrow. It passed a red clay tennis court, an inlet with
dozens of colorfully painted boats tied at piers, a low-lying wooden school,
the "organ pipes" memorial to Sibelius (to be discussed later), an old
hospital, a new hospital (glass structured which the natives trefer to as "The
Hilton".)
The bus passed "Talbo", the Prime Minister of Finland's place on
the water's edge. Across the water inlet of the Bay of Finland on the
horizon were smoke stacks which belong to "Alko" the liquor monopoly.
Near the white wood narrow bridge which the bus crossed slowly (because
the boards rattled) were wild brown ducks and white seagulls, most of them
floating and preening in the warmth of the brilliant sun. A small variety of
bamboo grew along the edge of the water.
A log cabin (child's size) on stilts was used to store food from wild animals
years ago. They said there were wolves (not human ones) which went after
the food.
Many log cabins, passed on the way, had sod on the roof which sprouted
grass and weeds to the height of 18 inches (approximately).
Mrs. Ford chatted for about 5 minutes with a group after she got off the bus.
(The poolers were not allowed near).
When she did come closer she said she had stopped to shop for gifts. "I have
a daughter and she has many friends. I bought trinkets many earrings,
bracelets, and necklaces to take back to them so they wouldn't think I had
forgotten them when I was away, "Mrs. Ford said.
"Are you going to buy skis?" asked one man.
"They like us to ski on America skis, " she replied.
The mats she had purchased on her first trip to the open marketplace she
said "will be going to our skiing lodge in Vail (Colorado, USA).

She had "noticed" a 4-year old little girl, Mira Tokisolo, who was in a
child's swing made from wooden logs. This little girl's madonna-like
exquisitely beautiful face was radiant with joy as she was pushed back and
forth on the swing by her mother. Another child near-by is a day-boarder
with Mrs. Tokisolo. His mother is a newspaper employee. She pays
300 Finnish marks a month for his care (5 days a week). He stays from
8 am to 5 pm. (Mrs. Ford did not go near them.)
Mrs. Ford wore a red and white polka dotted, shirt-waist dress with bow
at neckline and buttons on blouse; a white jacket (she took it off later
because it was very warm, The Secret Service agent held it for her); and
black and white spectator shoes.
Another twosome Mrs. Ford "noticed" was on a flat log placed over a smaller
round log. One boy jumped hard onto one end of the log, bouncing the girl
up into the air. She repeated the action causing the boy's side to bounce him
into the air. It resembled a tetter-totter, but it had trampoline action.
Mrs. Ford remarked about the weather. "It is absolute y marvelous
a beautiful day like this it's lovely. "
Then she added: "I really expected it to be cooler
so I am very pleased
with the lovely sun."
Mrs. Ford said she hoped to do more shopping if "I get the time."
Suddenly the bus which brought the other wives arrived,
While Mrs. Ford walked to the first house she spoke about "my daughter.,
Susan. as a photographer worked on a newspaper " (It was difficult to
hear because she spoke so softly.)
She entered the square courtyard of the farmhouse. The reason there was
C onstruction with houses on four sides and a courtyard in the middle was to
keep wild animals out.
In the courtyard a group of dancers began their folk rhythms accompanied by
two violinists, a flutist, and an accordian player. The dancers wore costumes
traditional of various parts of Finland. The men: navy blue knee-breeches
with colorful wool binding under the knee; white knee socks; black shoes; white
shirts. When asked if she would join the dancers she said, "I don't know the
steps" and laughed.
The women wore colorful calf-length skirts; sleeveless vests (black) and
white blouses. Some wore small hats (only married women wore hats), and
some wore ribbons (unmarried girls wore ribbons in their hair).
Mrs. Ford was escorted into the wooden farmhouse which had been painted
with a special reddish paint (probably creosote (?).)
Inside the house there was a paucity of furnishings.. a wooden mold to make
reindeer shoes (the fur is turned inside); rocks for baking (they are heated
like a sauna bath). Bread was baked two times a year. The bread was in
the shape of a 12-inch doughnut and strung on a wooden pole near the rocf.
It gets very, very hard. (The bread is made of rye flour and water and
sometimes potatoes are added to the bread.)
Antler horns were used as a device to wind wool or flax yarn for spinning.
A large wooden tub was used to store salt. One wooden tub was used to store
water. Rakes were three-pronged and made of wood, which is abundant. This
house was considered "prosperous."

Outside there was a wooden balcony on the second floor. (Mrs. Ford did not
climb up the ladder to reach the second floor.)
The master bedroom had a wooden clothes closet with birds painted on doors.
A fireplace made of bricks, a small bed, two small wooden chairs, small
table, a horn, curtains of linen, the walls originally had no coverings.
but now they are covered with smooth deerskin. There were wooden plates in
one room, and a cupboard. had two cups and one saucer (made of pottery).
A stove with metal door, a pair of hand-woven red and white wool gloves, and
hand-made rug-runners were seen. A clock on the wall had no cover. There
was a wooden rocking chair. (All furniture was hand made.)
Cattle had been kept on the other side of the square courtyard in a barn, but
were brought into the main living quarters to keep the family warmer with their
body heat. Mrs. Ford heard an instrument played a kentele which is
played on a table like a zither or on the lap.
Small axes were stored on top of one door.
Outside in the courtyard again, Mrs. Ford saw five girls who wore different
Finnish costumes.
At a small table covered with a white cloth in the courtyard, Mrs. Ford
stopped to taste the refreshments
she was handed an open face sandwich
made with fish, cheese, decorated with dill. She did not taste it. But
she did eat a piece of ham (cube) on a toothpick. They served meade (a tra-
ditional Finnish drink made with raisins, sugar, water, lemmon and yeast
non-alcoholic. (Other things go into this recipe.)
The Lord-Mayor of Helsinki accompanied Mrs. Ford around the open air
museum. His name is Teuvo Aura. She told him she was having a "delightful
time" and "it was very colorful".
She was served a "home-made brew" to which she said um". (it is non-
alcoholic).
Inside the courtyard are lilac bushes and dainty white birch trees.
The roof of each of these houses is made of wooden shingles.
Suddenly.
a white butterfly floated by in the bushes.
"This is one of the delightful parts, " Mrs. Ford repeated. "It is very cheerful
and beautiful, very festive. "
Asked if this reminded her of any parts of the State in the northern mid-west
back home, Mrs. Ford replied: Well, I think perhaps Minnesota."
"Naturally it is only possible to get a closer feel of the country by spending
more
time
the other countries we were in.
we were in such a short time
it was practically from the airport to the palace wherever we were staying
whatever
occasion
took
place.
there was very little time for sightseeing, "
Mrs. Ford said!
Asking a native who attended about the impression she had of Mrs. Ford she
replied, "She is absolutely lovely. she is genuine. wholesome. the people
reacted very warmly to her. She is such a beauty -- ravishing. people would
wish to see more of her.

On the way back to the pier where the women were to sail to an island for
lunch
Mrs. Ford and the group stopped to see the Sibelius Monument
which looks like organ pipes, is made of steel and resting on granite rocks.
A metal sculptor of the head of Sibelius is nearby: The memorial was
explained to Mrs. Ford by the grand-daughter of Sibelius, Mrs. Enckell. (Her
husband is the Finnish Ambassador to France.) Eila Hildunen sculptored
this monument in seven years
out of steel. She cast the metal, also.
Mrs. Ford stopped to have her picture taken with the Sibelius Monument in
the background.
On the way to the pier, many people were on the sidewalk watching the
caravan of cars go by escorted by motorcycle police.
At the boat, the press was not permitted to go on board. only Sheila Weiden-
feld, Mrs. Ford's press secretary, went on board with the wives of the heads
of state.
We passed three ice-breakers in the harbor.

TOUR OF ICEBREAKER "UHRO"
At 7:30 p.m., you and Mrs. Ford will visit the Icebreaker "Urho" where
you will join President Kekkonen and take a walking tour followed
by a brief, informal buffet dinner in the salon. Also invited are Secretary
Kissinger, Ambassador and Mrs. Austad, Finnish Foreign Minister and
Mrs. Mattila, and Finnish Ambassador to the United States and Mrs.
Tuominen.
The "Urho", named after President Kekkonen, is the newest and largest
version of the Finnish icebreakers. The Finnish build the best and most
sophisticated icebreakers in the world and have sold several to Western
European countries and to the Soviet Union.
As you know, the problem of extreme winter freezing of the Great Lakes
has been one of major concern for many years. Each day the Lakes
are frozen, 20, 000 jobs come to a halt. Sixty thousand additional jobs
are indirectly halted. The countless additional number of frozen-area
jobs affected make the daily loss a substantial and critical one. You will
recall that Senator Griffin and Congressman Ruppe briefed you on the
situation during your recent visit to Mackinac Island. The possible
acquisition of Finnish icebreakers would aid the Finns economically
as well as fulfill a need in the Great Lakes Area.
You will return to the Embassy Residence at approximately 9:00 p.m.

Spring Palace. Mrs. Ford will ride with Mrs. Ceausescu. There will be two
motorcade stops en route the Palace where you and President Ceausescu will
get out of the limousine and greet the citizens. At both stops, you may be
offered the traditional bread and salt and plum brandy (Tuica). The bread,
usually baked in the house of local peasants, represents the flesh of the
people and is a symbol of friendship and hospitality. The salt represents
the land.
At the first stop, Plaza Scienteia, Bucharest's Mayor Georgia Cioara will present
you with a key to the city. You will be expected to make brief "thank you" remarks.
SPRING PALACE
Upon arrival at Spring Palace, your residence, you and Mrs. Ford will meet the
Mission of Honor and proceed to the Petit Salon for a brief conversation with the
official parties. This initial stop at the Palace will be very brief (approximately
30 minutes).
The Spring Palace was built in the middle sixties specifically to house visiting heads
of state. A low slung, modern structure, the Palace is situated on a bluff overlooking
Lake Floreasca, an artificial lake that is one of the city's most attractive. The
compound is located within a controlled area reserved for residences of top
officials, including President Ceausescu.

for the 1 hour 25 minute head-to-head meeting with President Ceausescu,

and review the troops. The Monument, located near the Military Academy,
depicts three larger than life figures; an infantryman, a sailor and a
navigator and honors Romanians who fought for the freedom of the home-
land during World War II. In its broader sense, it honors all Romanian
warriors and patriots. The monument was dedicated in 1957.

The Council of State, formerly the Royal Palace, is the site of the head-to-
head talks, as well as the State Dinner. Built between 1930 and 1937, this
imposing U-shaped neoclassical structure now houses the most important
government organs of the Romanian State. President Ceausescu has his
office there and the building is also the seat of the Council of State, the
supreme permanent body of the State power, according to the Romanian
Constitution. In the northern wing of the Palace is the National Museum
of Art, which has Romania's most valuable collection of national
artistic treasures.
DINNER
Following the head-to-head meeting, you return to the Spring Palace via
motorcade for 25 minutes personal time, then depart with Mrs. Ford at

Ceausescu's dinner. Dress: Dark Business Suit, Long Dress.
Upon arrival at the Palace of the Republic, you will be met by President

reception). You will offer a toast.
ROMANIAN CUSTOMS
-- When you and Mrs. Ford are introduced to a
Romanian, the polite response (phonetically)
is "IM PAR A-BEE-NAY" the Romanian
equivalent of "I am pleased to meet you."
--
When a Romanian man is introduced to a woman,
he will often take her hand and kiss it while
saying, "SA-ROOTA-MUNNA" which means
"I kiss your hand."
--
An appropriate Romanian expression when one
is toasting informally is "NA-ROKE" which
means "luck."
--
Romanians pride themselves on their Latin,
not Slavic, heritage.

The present owner\nand occupants, Baron Joerg Holzschuher von Harrlach, and\nFORD\nBENALD\nLiBuany\nhis wife, the Baroness, are distant relatives to the original\nBaron of feudal times. The castle has been leased to the\nFederal Republic of Germany for a period of eight (8) years,\nand is used alternatively between the Baron and his family,\nand visiting dignitaries. It is also the site of international\nconferences. The castle was \"volunteered\" to the German Third\nReich during World War II, and on VE Day was occupied by the\nGerman High Command for the Luftwafa. The property was returned\nto the Baron and his family after post war adjustments.\nThe Castle has been destroyed and rebuilt several times and\ntoday combines Gothic, Baroque and Rococo elements. The\nKnights of Gymnich, named after their Castle, won fame\nduring the crusades and played a key role.\nCITY OF BONN - The city originated at the time of the Roman\ngeneral, Drusus, in 12 B.C. The city rights were confirmed\nin 1244. Afterwards, it was the residence of the Cologne\nElectors - Archbishops. Important Baroque buildings originate\nfrom this period, e.g. today's university buildings and the\nPoppelsdorf Schlob. In 1815, Bonn became Prussian, after a\nshort period of French rule. The Rhenish Friedrich Wilhelm\nUniversity was founded three years later. The city was badly\ndamaged by air raids during the Second World War. The\nParliamentary Council met in Bonn from September 1948 to\nMay 1949. This body passed the Basic Law for the Federal\nRepublic of Germany on May 8, 1949, and in the same year, Bonn\nbecame the provisional Federal capital. Bonn is noted for the\nBeethoven Festival, which is held every year, and has the most\nmodern theatre building in Germany, opened in 1965.

The building was bought by the German govern-\nment shortly before the Second World War. After the war\nthe Palace served temporarily as a Belgian staff head-\nquarters. Two days after Bonn had been chosen as the\nprovisional Federal capital, the Palace was designated\nas the official residence of the Federal Chancellor and\nremodeled to serve this purpose.\nVILLA HAMMERSCHMIDT\nBuilt in 1860 as the residence of a millionaire and changed\nhands several times. After the war the villa was taken over\nby the occupation authorities. The property was purchased\nin 1950 by the Federal Republic of Germany. It was remodeled\nand in 1951 occupied by the first Federal President, Professor\nTheodor Heuss. Since that time the building has been the\nofficial quarters of the Federal President, and its current\noccupant is Federal President Walter Scheel.\nKIRSCHGOENS - JOINT FRG/US MILITARY PICNIC\nThe history of the First Brigade Summer Picnic can be traced\nback to the early formation of the U.S. Land Armed Forces.\nAs early as the 18th Century, units celebrated the organi-\nzation of their unit. The gathering became more formalized\nwith the establishment of the Regimental Unit System.\nFollowing World War II, the Regimental System was disbanded\nin the Army with the exception of the Cavalry Regiment.\nThe elements that were left after the Regiment was split\nwere referred to as Battalions. These Battalions continue\nthe tradition of holding an organization day, though it may\nnot, in some cases, be held on the exact day of founding.\nFrom this tradition comes the 1st Brigade, 3rd Armored\nDivision Summer Picnic. It is an annual event which allows\nthe members and families of all the Battalions in the Brigade\nto \"get together\".\n&\nFORD\nmunald\nLIBRARY\n3\nThe stated goal of \"Project Partnership\" is to increase\nmutual understanding among NATO soldiers by increasing\nsoldier-to-soldier contacts. Some 150 NATO units are\ninvolved in the Project's \"sister unit\" program.\nAYERS KASERNE\nThe 1st Brigade, 3rd Armored Division, is the major unit\nlocated at Ayers Kaserne in Kirschgoens, Germany. The\nkaserne was built on what was Hessian farmland until it\nwas taken over by the German Luftwaffe (Air Force) in the\n1930's as an airfield. The air strip and support facili-\nties were completely destroyed in air raids during World\nWar II. Ayers Kaserne, built in 1952, under the direction\nof the US Army, was named in honor of SSG Lovel E. Ayers\nof Company B, 22nd Infantry Regiment. He was killed in\naction near Prum, Germany, and was posthumously awarded\nthe Distinguished Service Cross.\nFORN\nBERALD\nLIUNAKE\n4\nRHINE RIVER CRUISE\nPresident Sheel's dinner will be held on the MS DRACHENFELS,\nowned by the Cologne-Duesseldorfer Company. The MS DRACHENFELS\nwas built in 1961 in Cologne and cost about $3 million. It\nis one of the larges passenger boats in Europe and can carry\n3,200 passengers standing, or 1,200 seated. The ship is 297'\nlong, 51' wide, and has a draft of 4.8'.\nWhen President Scheel was inaugurated in 1974 an inauguration\nparty was held aboard the MS DRACHENFELS. In 1965 when Konrad\nAdenauer died the ship carried the former Chancellor's body\nfrom Cologne to his home at Rhoendorf. Other highlights of\nthe DRACHENFELS' history include a meeting of the European\nEconomic Council on board in 1961 and a cruise by President\nDe Gaulle of France in 1962.\nThe Captain of the MS DRACHENFELS is Captain Holst VON DER WERTH.\nCapt. von der Werth was born in East Germany and is 43 years\nold. He has worked for the Cologne-Duesseldorfer Company since\n1953 and first held the position of Captain in 1965. He is\nmarried, has 1. son and his family lives in Cologne.\nThe Koeln-Duesseldorfer River Company, owner of the MS\nDRACHENFELS, is based in Cologne and next year will celebrate\nits 150th anniversary. The company operates 24 passenger\nboats plus a hydrofoil build in Russia. K/D employs about\n500 people and is the largest firm of its type in the FRG.\n-\nFrom Bonn upstream to Bad Breisig (the turnaround point)\nBad Godesberg on right, with castle on hill. (The\nUS Embassy is located in Bad Godesberg and can be\nseen near the river edge.)\nKonigswinter on left, the most popular tourist\nregion of the Rhine. Famous for hiking; several\ncastles on hills; most famous one is ruins of\nDrachenfels (same name as boat on which tour is\nbeing made) which was Snow White's castle; also\nPetersburg castle, used for state visit residence.\nBad Honnef on left, famous watering spot for\npersons with stomach and intestinal disorders\nand circulation problems.\nFORD\n5\nNonnenwerth island on right across from Bad Honnef,\nwith an old (from 1122) monastery.\nBanks of river on left (eastern side), from\nDrachenfels upstream, begin the famous Rhine\nvineyards. Drachenfels area is farthest north\nvines can be cultivated in Germany.\nUnkel on left, a famous resort spot with important\nvineyards and an impressive view from the tops of\nthe Seven Hills.\nRemagen, on right, a Romanic-origin town, famous\nfor the bridge that was the first to fall into\nthe hands of the Allies in 1945 and led to a\nmajor Rhine crossing during the assault on the\nGerman heartland. The bridge has been since\ndestroyed but its pilings and towers remain and\nare obvious.\nErpel, on left, across from Remagen is notable\nfor the 153-foot high cliff that towers over the\nriver and stands above the spot where the bridge\nconnected to the eastern bank.\nLinz on left, the spot of a Presidential stop,\nis a famous town known for the remains of many\nmiddle ages and 17th-18th century buildings.\nIt is 1,100 years old (1974). Remains of the\nold city walls can be seen. The church on the\nhill was begun in the 14th century. The\npopulation of Linz is about 6,000.\nTHE RHINELAND\nThe Rhine River originates in Switzerland and flows for 820\nmiles along the French-German border, through Germany and\nHolland before emptying into the North Sea. It is one of\nthe most beautiful and popular tourist regions in the world,\nparticularly the portion which passes through Germany. It\nis navigable for 500 miles and is the greatest European\nartery of waterborne traffic. Since the Treaty of Vienna\nin 1815 it has been an international waterway. The Rhine\nis the heart of the FRG's 3,700 miles of inland waterways\nand carries 75% of her inland water transport. Barges of\nup to 1,500 tons utilize it.\nrune\nBERALD\nAmount\n6\nThe Rhine is the largest major river in the world which\nflows from south to north, so that when one refers to\ngoing \"upstream\" on the Rhine he is talking about going\nsouth toward the Swiss border. The current is extra\nstrong and runs about 9 knots with increased velocity\nin the narrow turns, of which there are many. The river\nwinds like a snake throughout Germany.\nBecause of the current, industrial development which has\ncontributed to pollution, and the vast amount of commer-\ncial barge and tourist boat traffic on the river, swimming\nis not advisable. Small boating is not the rule either,\nexcept for kayaks. One of the most colorful sights on\nthe river, therefore, is the picture of long barges (on\nwhich families live) from Switzerland, Germany, and the\nNetherlands and other European countries plying the\nwaters with their trade. An onlooker will note the\ndifficulties many boats have in traversing the current\nupstream and the relative ease with which they head north.\nThe Rhine wines are world famous (most notable the Reislings,\nSylvaners, and Traminers) and are somewhat sweeter in taste\nthan the Mosels. The Mosel River meets the Rhine at Koblenz,\nfurther upstream from Remagen and not visited on the\nPresidential trip. Of interest is the fact that in German\nthe Mosel is a \"female\" river (die Mosel) and the Rhine is\n\"male\" (der Rhine). When they meet at Koblenz you have\nwhat may be the world's only river marriage.\nAt Linz, it is expected that the wine offered the President\nwill be a local (Linzer) wine in the city's large ceremonial\ncup. It is expected that President Scheel will also be\noffered wine from the same cup.\nFORD\nLIURARY\nTHE WHITE HOUSE\nWASHINGTON\nTHE PRESIDENT AND MRS.

Most buildings\nin this \"outdoor museum\" date from the 18th and 19th centuries. Included on\nthe island are farmsteads, a watermill, a country store, a granary, and\nchurch. There are samples of Finnish housing from a country cottage to a\nfarmhouse to a manor dwelling. all made of wooden logs, in various shapes\nand sizes.\nEach house was taken apart piece by piece, numbered, and reconstru cted\nas it originally stood with furniture and utensils (except for the animals).\nThe bus which brought Mrs. Ford to the island took the \"prettier\" route. It\nwas winding and narrow. It passed a red clay tennis court, an inlet with\ndozens of colorfully painted boats tied at piers, a low-lying wooden school,\nthe \"organ pipes\" memorial to Sibelius (to be discussed later), an old\nhospital, a new hospital (glass structured which the natives trefer to as \"The\nHilton\".)\nThe bus passed \"Talbo\", the Prime Minister of Finland's place on\nthe water's edge. Across the water inlet of the Bay of Finland on the\nhorizon were smoke stacks which belong to \"Alko\" the liquor monopoly.\nNear the white wood narrow bridge which the bus crossed slowly (because\nthe boards rattled) were wild brown ducks and white seagulls, most of them\nfloating and preening in the warmth of the brilliant sun. A small variety of\nbamboo grew along the edge of the water.\nA log cabin (child's size) on stilts was used to store food from wild animals\nyears ago. They said there were wolves (not human ones) which went after\nthe food.\nMany log cabins, passed on the way, had sod on the roof which sprouted\ngrass and weeds to the height of 18 inches (approximately).\nMrs. Ford chatted for about 5 minutes with a group after she got off the bus.\n(The poolers were not allowed near).\nWhen she did come closer she said she had stopped to shop for gifts. \"I have\na daughter and she has many friends. I bought trinkets many earrings,\nbracelets, and necklaces to take back to them so they wouldn't think I had\nforgotten them when I was away, \"Mrs. Ford said.\n\"Are you going to buy skis?\" asked one man.\n\"They like us to ski on America skis, \" she replied.\nThe mats she had purchased on her first trip to the open marketplace she\nsaid \"will be going to our skiing lodge in Vail (Colorado, USA).\nR\nvord\nMORE\nAmougly\n-2-\nShe had \"noticed\" a 4-year old little girl, Mira Tokisolo, who was in a\nchild's swing made from wooden logs. This little girl's madonna-like\nexquisitely beautiful face was radiant with joy as she was pushed back and\nforth on the swing by her mother. Another child near-by is a day-boarder\nwith Mrs. Tokisolo. His mother is a newspaper employee. She pays\n300 Finnish marks a month for his care (5 days a week). He stays from\n8 am to 5 pm. (Mrs. Ford did not go near them.)\nMrs. Ford wore a red and white polka dotted, shirt-waist dress with bow\nat neckline and buttons on blouse; a white jacket (she took it off later\nbecause it was very warm, The Secret Service agent held it for her); and\nblack and white spectator shoes.\nAnother twosome Mrs. Ford \"noticed\" was on a flat log placed over a smaller\nround log. One boy jumped hard onto one end of the log, bouncing the girl\nup into the air. She repeated the action causing the boy's side to bounce him\ninto the air. It resembled a tetter-totter, but it had trampoline action.\nMrs. Ford remarked about the weather. \"It is absolute y marvelous\na beautiful day like this it's lovely. \"\nThen she added: \"I really expected it to be cooler\nso I am very pleased\nwith the lovely sun.\"\nMrs. Ford said she hoped to do more shopping if \"I get the time.\"\nSuddenly the bus which brought the other wives arrived,\nWhile Mrs. Ford walked to the first house she spoke about \"my daughter.,\nSusan. as a photographer worked on a newspaper \" (It was difficult to\nhear because she spoke so softly.)\nShe entered the square courtyard of the farmhouse. The reason there was\nC onstruction with houses on four sides and a courtyard in the middle was to\nkeep wild animals out.\nIn the courtyard a group of dancers began their folk rhythms accompanied by\ntwo violinists, a flutist, and an accordian player. The dancers wore costumes\ntraditional of various parts of Finland. The men: navy blue knee-breeches\nwith colorful wool binding under the knee; white knee socks; black shoes; white\nshirts. When asked if she would join the dancers she said, \"I don't know the\nsteps\" and laughed.\nThe women wore colorful calf-length skirts; sleeveless vests (black) and\nwhite blouses. Some wore small hats (only married women wore hats), and\nsome wore ribbons (unmarried girls wore ribbons in their hair).\nMrs. Ford was escorted into the wooden farmhouse which had been painted\nwith a special reddish paint (probably creosote (?).)\nInside the house there was a paucity of furnishings.. a wooden mold to make\nreindeer shoes (the fur is turned inside); rocks for baking (they are heated\nlike a sauna bath). Bread was baked two times a year. The bread was in\nthe shape of a 12-inch doughnut and strung on a wooden pole near the rocf.\nIt gets very, very hard. (The bread is made of rye flour and water and\nsometimes potatoes are added to the bread.)\nAntler horns were used as a device to wind wool or flax yarn for spinning.\nA large wooden tub was used to store salt. One wooden tub was used to store\nwater. Rakes were three-pronged and made of wood, which is abundant. This\nhouse was considered \"prosperous.\"\n1080\nMORE\nBENALD\nLIENARY\n-3-\nOutside there was a wooden balcony on the second floor. (Mrs. Ford did not\nclimb up the ladder to reach the second floor.)\nThe master bedroom had a wooden clothes closet with birds painted on doors.\nA fireplace made of bricks, a small bed, two small wooden chairs, small\ntable, a horn, curtains of linen, the walls originally had no coverings.\nbut now they are covered with smooth deerskin. There were wooden plates in\none room, and a cupboard. had two cups and one saucer (made of pottery).\nA stove with metal door, a pair of hand-woven red and white wool gloves, and\nhand-made rug-runners were seen. A clock on the wall had no cover. There\nwas a wooden rocking chair. (All furniture was hand made.)\nCattle had been kept on the other side of the square courtyard in a barn, but\nwere brought into the main living quarters to keep the family warmer with their\nbody heat. Mrs. Ford heard an instrument played a kentele which is\nplayed on a table like a zither or on the lap.\nSmall axes were stored on top of one door.\nOutside in the courtyard again, Mrs. Ford saw five girls who wore different\nFinnish costumes.\nAt a small table covered with a white cloth in the courtyard, Mrs. Ford\nstopped to taste the refreshments\nshe was handed an open face sandwich\nmade with fish, cheese, decorated with dill. She did not taste it. But\nshe did eat a piece of ham (cube) on a toothpick. They served meade (a tra-\nditional Finnish drink made with raisins, sugar, water, lemmon and yeast\nnon-alcoholic. (Other things go into this recipe.)\nThe Lord-Mayor of Helsinki accompanied Mrs. Ford around the open air\nmuseum. His name is Teuvo Aura. She told him she was having a \"delightful\ntime\" and \"it was very colorful\".\nShe was served a \"home-made brew\" to which she said um\". (it is non-\nalcoholic).\nInside the courtyard are lilac bushes and dainty white birch trees.\nThe roof of each of these houses is made of wooden shingles.\nSuddenly.\na white butterfly floated by in the bushes.\n\"This is one of the delightful parts, \" Mrs. Ford repeated. \"It is very cheerful\nand beautiful, very festive. \"\nAsked if this reminded her of any parts of the State in the northern mid-west\nback home, Mrs. Ford replied: Well, I think perhaps Minnesota.\"\n\"Naturally it is only possible to get a closer feel of the country by spending\nmore\ntime\nthe other countries we were in.\nwe were in such a short time\nit was practically from the airport to the palace wherever we were staying\nwhatever\noccasion\ntook\nplace.\nthere was very little time for sightseeing, \"\nMrs. Ford said!\nAsking a native who attended about the impression she had of Mrs. Ford she\nreplied, \"She is absolutely lovely. she is genuine. wholesome. the people\nreacted very warmly to her. She is such a beauty -- ravishing. people would\nwish to see more of her.\nLIBRARY\nMORE\n-4-\nOn the way back to the pier where the women were to sail to an island for\nlunch\nMrs. Ford and the group stopped to see the Sibelius Monument\nwhich looks like organ pipes, is made of steel and resting on granite rocks.\nA metal sculptor of the head of Sibelius is nearby: The memorial was\nexplained to Mrs. Ford by the grand-daughter of Sibelius, Mrs. Enckell. (Her\nhusband is the Finnish Ambassador to France.) Eila Hildunen sculptored\nthis monument in seven years\nout of steel. She cast the metal, also.\nMrs. Ford stopped to have her picture taken with the Sibelius Monument in\nthe background.\nOn the way to the pier, many people were on the sidewalk watching the\ncaravan of cars go by escorted by motorcycle police.\nAt the boat, the press was not permitted to go on board. only Sheila Weiden-\nfeld, Mrs. Ford's press secretary, went on board with the wives of the heads\nof state.\nWe passed three ice-breakers in the harbor.\nmany small boats and some\nlarge ones.\nA few photographers were permitted on board.\nSaaristo is the name of the boat.
