Digitized from Box 29 of the Sheila Weidenfeld Files at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library Lakewood Republican Dinner, October 21, 1976 I want to talk about another candidate on your ballot in Lakewood Jerry Ford. Most of you know how hard he has worked through the years for the Republican party. It's very important for him to have good GOP candidates. elected to both Houses and to have state and local officials responsive to his philosophy and leadership. I know that you have a very fine organization here, but all political work really comes down to one day election day. Jerry Ford and all these candidates need your help to get voters to the polls. The President has made us proud again of our government (and not one American is fighting or dying anywhere an the face of the Earth. and of ourselves. America is at peace, Our economy has improved sound. With your help, we can keep him on the job and begin our third century with a Republican president. -0- GERALD R. FORD FIBRARY Lakewood, Ohio Politics Lakewood, an upper middle class suburb of Cleveland along Lake Erie, is located in Ohio's 23rd District. Republican William Minshall represented this district for 20 years. When he retired in 1974, Democrat Ronald Mottl won the seat. The GOP cardidate is Michael Scanlon, 57, an attorney with no previous political experience except precinct chairman. Scanlon, who attended Cleveland-Marshall Law School and Notre Dame, is married and has four children. He was in the Air Corps during World War II. The RCC is very pessimistic about his chances. -0- SERVICE R. FORD LIBRARY 1st District Iowa Background The 1st is in Iowa's southeast corner along the Mississippi River. Republican Fred Schwengel was defeated in 1972 by Democrat Ed Mezvinsky. This year's GOP candidate, Jim Leach, ran a good race against Mezvinsky, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, in 1974. Leach is getting alot of Republican help this year, and the RCC thinks he has an excellent chance of unseating Mezvinsky. Leach, who was 34 on October 16, is president of the family business, Flamegas Company Inc., which markets propane gas. The business is in Bettendorf near Davenport. Leach has a B.A. from Princeton and an M.A. from Johns Hopkins University. He also studied at the London School of Economics. A former foreign service officer, he speaks German and Russian. He served as an administrative assistant to Don Rumsfeld at the Office of Economic Opportunity, and he was a delegate to the Geneva Disarmament Conference. Leach was married earlier this year, and his wife's name is "Deba." Secretary Richardson is one of several top Republicans who have been in to campaign for Leach. A number of birthday parties have been held this week for the candidate, and your appearance will be at the last "birthday" party. -0- FORD & LIBRARY GERATE Leach Rally, Bettendorf, Iowa, October 21, 1976 Happy birthday, Jim! Your campaign reminds me of another young Republican with a new wife who ran for Congress. I hope you are successful just as Jerry Ford was in 1948. I am proud of what my husband has accomplished during the years, and I am especially proud of what he is doing as President. Those were dark days when he came into office. Now the economy is back on track. The Nation is at peace, and Americans can respect their government. The President has had to make some really tough choices and to act instead of talk about problems. He has shown that he is a man of his word, and he hasn't been afraid to veto those big-spending bills. He needs more help from Congress to see that your FORD is SERALD LIBRARY tax dollars are not wasted, and that's why Jim Leach should be elected. Jim shares the President's concern about spending, and he will represent Iowa well in the House. On November 2nd keep the President on the job and send him some help. Vote for Jim Leach! And, of course, Vote for Jerry Ford. -0- eav LLMB (ff CLB) TOT-11'E BEAISED vnenal 1001 21VMDVBD LOBN 07 923-388 03-108 BECEIVED DA DV.LE LIVE LIBRARY FORD of OFFICE NEGAVGE HELAWHED лопы CVTT MICHES WI MITT brever CVTT VOVIN 10° 18 If MYUNG of OF on Doyon want AON MEME CYFFED BA-- ДОВ - Rusty 10: OL CVTT NEWOBYNDOW MEMORANDUM OF CALL TO: YOU WERE CALLED BY- YOU WERE VISITED BY- OF (Organization) PHONE NO.

Dear Ladies, I have taken the liberty of sending Mrs. Ford copies of our recent issue of the Marycrest College newspaper, the Crest, that features her recent visit to the Quad-Cities, and being her press secretaries I was sure you would like to see them also. But I would asso like to say thank you very much for your assistance to my photographer and myself (as well as the other media people) during her hectic, hour-long visit. Not being proffessional reporters it is hard enough to cover a news event without it being one of such importance as the First Lady's visit. However, your helpfullness, kindness, and dedi- cation during the event has helped us turn out the articles and photos we did with ease. I am sure Mrs. Ford is aware of the excellence of her press staff, and has every reason to feel confident with them, and proud of them. Thank you again so very much.
