It saved me a whole day plus another trip to Washington, which I really don't need at the present time. You always go out of your way to be helpful, which always makes me feel like somebody special. I assure you it makes me work harder for "the cause.' Thanks also for talking to people like Winfield Dunn. As you know, I very seldom give your name to anyone, but Winfield has been a good Republican and he is a good friend, so I took the liberty to tell him to call you reference the President's possible visit to Nashville and Meharry University. Look forward to seeing you. Let me know if I can be of help. Sincerely, JoelM. Rodgers Ask the epossince Mike possible to let me JMR/sr know Fiminght our, last weeks Thanks topicting- for P.O.

Deaver Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mike: I asked Shirley to pass on to you that I really did realize your discussion with me regarding Japan was both premature and tentative. The reason I wrote was that I heard at The Carlton Club that Ambassador Mansfield had publicly said he was ready to come home, and I also heard that the rumor around Washington was that Dave Abshire would be his replacement. I totally understand how rumors get started and that most of them are just that, rumors; but I did want you to know that the "game" had started. Again, thanks for your interest in my involvement. Look forward to seeing you. Sincerely, Joe M. Rodgers JMR/sr P.O.

Deaver Deputy Chief of Staff The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mike: I put you on the CC for this letter to the NEA Public Affairs person because there seems to be a subtle anti-California attitude over there. It's as if the new Republican Governor and his appointees to the California Arts Council are less welcome than the former Brownies. It just may be the typical East Coast snobery regardless of party affiliation. I would, however, like to see our mutual friend, Marilyn Ryan, get some recognition by the NEA. Sincerely Be Robert H. Reid Chief Deputy Director RHR: mf CALIFORNIA COUNCIL October 21, 1983 Marvin Liebman Director of Public Affairs National Endowment for the Arts 1100 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W. Washington, D.C. 20506 Dear Mr. Liebman: I received the quarterly issue of the NEA's magazine, Arts Review, and thought it was a nice publication. I am interested, however, in some coverage of California in this publication as well as the NEA newsletter that we receive. Why not do an interview with the California Arts Council's new Director, Marilyn Ryan, former Assemblywoman from Southern Cali- fornia. We do represent a large segment of the population out here in California and look forward to some coverage. The new Administration of Governor George Deukmejian seeks a broader role for the private sector in the arts here in California and Marilyn Ryan is the Governor's chief spokesperson for the arts. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely Robert H. Reid Chief Deputy Director RHR: mf cc: Frank S.M. Hodsoll Adrian King Michael K. Deaver
