Baker, Jr. Chief of Staff to the President The Honorable Robert P. Griffin Post Office Box 4255 Traverse City, MI 49685 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON October 7, 1987 Dear Jack: It was good to hear from you. I was greatly honored by the naming of the chair at McCallie after me. I went to McCallie and made a brief and thoroughly unremarkable speech. But I enjoyed the day and the chance to visit with a few of our classmates. With good wishes to you, Sincerely, Haward Chief of Staff to the President Dean W. J. Payne Franklin College of Arts and Sciences The University of Georgia Athens, GA 30602 CC: Loraine Camarano October 7, 1987 Dear Mr. Shipley: Thank you for your kind invitation. I am honored that you would think of asking me to attend the Chemical Bank's International Advisorv Board Fall Dinner on October 26. Regrettably, the heavy demands or my schedule have forced me to decline. Please know, however, that you have my best wishes for an enjoyable evening. Warm regards. Sincerely, Howard B. Baker, UD. Chief of Staff to the President Mr. Walter V. Shipley Chairman Chemical Bank 277 Park Avenue New York, NY 10172 HHB/WJB/LRC/dsf3 PHB-14 cc: Lorreine Camarane - 61 OFOB October 7, 1987 Dear Mr. Dixon: Thank you for your inquiry regarding National Association of Counties V. James A. Baker, III. The issue presented in this case is whether the Secretary of the Treasury is obligated to disburse to local governmental units nearly $180 million in General Revenue Sharing funds (representing 4.3% of the FY 1986 appropriation) which were sequestered under Gramm-Rudman-Hollings before the revenue-sharing program was terminated by Congress. As you may know, the Federal government has filed a notice of appeal of the ruling by Judge Green. Please be assured that the matter of whether this case should be appealed received the closest scrutiny among the pertinent agencies, the Civil Division at the Department of Justice, and the Office of the Solicitor General. Wherever possible the Federal government strives to resolve harmoniously conflicts with State and local governmental units. There are, however, instances where the conflict is unavoidable, especially when a significant amount of money is at stake and the Justice Department's review of the law found abundant support for the Secretary of the Treasury's action. We are doing everything we can to assure that this issue is resolved expeditiously, by agreeing with counsel for the local governments to file an early notice of appeal and to request jointly of the U.S. Court of Appeals that it hear this case by the end of the year. Thank you for sharing your concerns. Sincerely, Howard H. Baker, Jr. Chief of Staff to the President Mr. Richard B.

James A. Baker, III. The issue presented in this case is whether the Secretary of the Treasury is obligated to disburse to local governmental units nearly $180 million in General Revenue Sharing funds (representing 4.38 of the FY 1936 appropriation) which were sequestered under Gramm-Rudman-Hollings before the revenue-sharing program was terminated by Congress.

Morris, Jr. Mayor of Shelby County Memphis, TN 38103 HHB/GK/LRC/CAD/Legal Counsel/efr 10HHB CC: Lorraine Camarano - Rm. 61 - OEOB October 7, 1987 Dear John: I want to apologize for the delay in responding to your letter on legislation concerning the banking laws and recapitalizing the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC). As you know, because of the overriding need to recapitalize the FSLIC, the President approved H.R. 27 on August 10. We fully share your concerns about Title II of H.R. 27 and opposed it during Congressional deliberations on the measure. In our view, regulated financial institutions should be permitted to engage in activities that are currently closed to them and thereby compete more effectively with unregulated firms that engage in similar activities without restriction. In this regard, the Administration proposed in 1983 comprehensive legislation that would have largely deregulated the non-banking activities of bank and thrift holding companies (e.g., by permitting insurance underwriting and brokering). By restricting, instead of expanding, the activities in which depository institutions may permissibly engage, Title II of H.R. 27 is directly contrary to the Administration's policy. When the President approved this legislation, he said that his "willingness to sign this bill is based in part upon [a] statement of congressional intent not to renew or extend the moratorium on the granting of needed new authorities for banks beyond March 1, 1988. By that time, we hope that the Congress will present the President with a comprehensive measure consistent with the pro-competitive, pro-consumer legislation the Administration has long sought. With best wishes, Sincerely, Howard H. Baker, Jr. Chief of Staff to the President Mr. John F. McGillicuddy Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer Manufacturers Hanover Corporation 270 Park Avenue New York, NY 10017 HHB/OMB/LRC/CAD/MAD/D.Crippen/lrc/jz 10HHB CC: Lorraine Camarano - Rm. 61 - OEOB October 7, 1987 Dear Mr. Belton: Thank you for your thoughtful message.
