THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
October 4, 1972
MEMORANDUM FOR:
FROM:
RAY PRICE
THE PRESIDENT Rusy
SUBJECT:
Radio Speeches
Attached are drafts of the first batch of four. These are not in
final form, and have not gotten through all the checking and
clearance procedures -- but I think that they' re well enough along
to give you a pretty good idea of them, and that any one of them
could be put in final shape for use this weekend.
They are:
1) Paternalism (Safire) -- a rather philosophical defense of
the wisdom of the people against the claims of the elitists.
2) Crime and Drugs (Andrews) - -- progress against crime,
and what we're doing about drugs.
3) The Spending Ceiling and Budget Discipline (McDonald) --
why we've got to check spending, and why we need the ceiling to
do it.
4) Completing the Structure of Peace (Huebner) -- the unfinished
agenda in foreign affairs.
Of these, I think the best candidate for this weekend (because of its
timeliness) is the spending ceiling. The one on foreign policy needs
more work, and I think it would be better not to bump it up so
closely against McGovern's TV address on Vietnam Tuesday night.
Crime/Drugs and Paternalism are, I think, pretty close to the
mark, but they're ones that could go pretty much any time.
