FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SEPTEMBER 16, 1975
Office of the White House Press Secretary
THE WHITE HOUSE
MEMORANDUM FOR:
THE HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS
AND AGENCIES
I am pleased to announce that the Honorable Frank G. Zarb, Admin-
istrator, Federal Energy Administration, will serve as Chairman of
the Combined Federal Campaign for the National Capital Area this
fall.
This campaign, to begin soon, combines into a single drive the
solicitation efforts of the United Way of the National Capital Area,
the national health agencies and the international service agencies.
In this one drive we will seek to do our share to meet the needs of
more than 150 local, national and international health, welfare and
social service agencies.
These organizations deserve our wholehearted support. Working
together through the Combined Federal Campaign we can provide
such support, helping our neighbors and friends with special needs.
For those in need, the voluntary agencies are a beacon of hope.
Frequently, they are the only source for needed assistance.
Through the Combined Federal Campaign, Federal workers are offered
a unique opportunity to help persons in our community, in our Nation
and in overseas lands by one gift once a year. Their pledge can be
fulfilled through voluntary payroll deductions. I am confident that
Frank Zarb will have your wholehearted support in this endeavor.
I urge you to commend the campaign with its payroll deduction feature
to Federal employees and military personnel in your organization.
I request that you serve personally as Chairman of the combined
campaign in your organization and appoint one of your top assistants
as your Vice Chairman. Please tell Frank Zarb if you will serve
as Chairman and who you designate as your Vice Chairman.
GERALD R. FORD
