BAKER III JABTH SUBJECT: COMMUNICATION OF ADMINISTRATION POSITIONS TO THE RNC As the 1984 election approaches, the Republican National Committee will increasingly be looking to the White House for guidance with respect to the articulation of Administration positions. For obvious reasons, it is important that the Administration be perceived as "speaking with one voice." It is similarly important that appropriate senior staff have an opportunity to review any communications that could be characterized as, in one way or another, representing "the Administration." With these considerations in view, would you please ensure that any written communications of Administration positions to the RNC are appropriately coordinated with the Office of Political Affairs (which has lead responsibility for liaison with the RNC), and that they are circulated and cleared through the Staff Secretary's office. The small amount of additional time and trouble this may entail will, in the end, be well worth the investment. Thank you. 12 Republican went wo National have Callien Committee R10C Frederick K.

Nicoll Benjamin, Jr. Vice President Irving Trust Company One Wall Street New York, New York 10015 Dear Mr. Benjamin: I am in receipt of your letter regarding the commemorative gold coin which was apparently not received by former Ambassador Zahedi. As you know, the Inaugural Committee was formally disbanded and all materials were disposed of through public auction. Given the time that has elapsed it will be very difficult to resolve the matter. The Republican National Committee has no role in Inaugural matters, but in an effort to be of help, I attempted to determine if medals were still available from any source. My efforts proved unsuccessful and I am at a loss to suggest a further course of action. I regret that I could not be of help. With kind regards, Sincerely, KBabel Frederick K.

E. Ardeshir Zahedi, former Iranian Ambassador to the United States. He has asked that I write to you requesting information concerning the commemorative gold coins which were issued and given to attendees of President Reagan's inauguration. Ambassador Zahedi sent his check for $2,450.00 dated January 12, 1981 to the Presidental Inaugural Committee 1981, a copy of which is enclosed for your verification. For obvious reasons, he was unable to participate in the inauguration festivities and never received the commemorative coins. He would very much appreciate his souvenir of the inauguration if any coins are still available. You may forward them directly to me, against receipt, and I will ensure they are delivered to the Ambassador. Thank you very much for your assistance in this matter.

Following receipt of the letter, I spoke with Mr. Biebel in Washington and he indicated he was still trying to see if a commemorative medal may be available somewhere in the bureaucracy. I'll let you know if I learn anything further. With very best wishes, nic T Helvetia BY AIR MAIL PAR AVION 300 Personal To: The Henald Mr, Machael K.

In January I sent $50 to your committee, $75 to the Senatorial Committee and $75 to the Congressional Committee. In April I sent another $10 to the Congressional Committee and in May $15 to the American Security Council. Then on May 1st I spent $53.40 sending telegrams to our two Missouri Senators and our 10 Representatives urging them to support President Reagan's Budget and Economic program. I am enclosing a check for $250 to help your committee keep a Republican majority in the Senate and to elect more Republicans to the House of Representatives. In order to do this I wish $75 sent to the Senatorial Committee headed by Bob Packwood and $75 sent to the Congressional Committee headed by Guy Vander Jagt. The other $100 you can use as you see fit. I can assure you that the $250 is not a small amount based on my retirement income considering what I have already done. In view of this I am requesting that, if possible, you personally deliver the enclosed letter to President Reagan. You are free to read it and you can see that I have a high regard for the President. I also do not underrate the advisors and information that the President has at his disposal. I just think that the President might like to know how an ordinary citizen feels about the greatest danger facing our country.

Dear Mr. President: I have been, and will continue, supporting you financially and with personal effort. It is a sad reality for a country as great as ours but in my humble opinion we have had only three honest and sincere Presidents in the past 50 years: Truman, Eisenhower and yourself. You are staunchly adhering to the promises you made to the American people. You are also the first and only President to call the Russian leaders exactly what they are on nationwide TV. And for this you have been critized by some as being hawkish. What irony! Regardless of what some of our citizens may think, Communism is not just a philosophy or an ideology or an economy or a religion. Communism is a cruel and calculating conspiracy which uses deceit, double-talk and treachery to achieve its original goal; then uses torture, murder and enslavement to perpetuate itself in power. Communism is gang- sterism on a gigantic and international scale. I recently heard your Secretary of Labor, John Block, say on nation- wide TV that we should sell grain to the Russians because if we did not someone else would. We could use the same reasoning to sell arms and planes to Libya. Perhaps Mr. Block should be reminded what the great Russian poet Pasternak, who won the Nobel Prize and was not allowed by the Communists to receive it, said about his bosses in the Kremlin quote "They do not ask much of you. They only want you to hate the things you love and to love the things you despise". In closing I would like to remind you of what another President of our country said about the Russians in a speech before the Canadian Parliment and also before a joint session of Congress quote "Finally, let me say just a few words about the world in which we live. We should not misjudge the force of the challenge we face - a force that is powerful as well as insidious, that inspires dedication as well as fear, that uses means we cannot adopt to achieve ends we cannot permit. Nor can we mistake the nature of the struggle. It is not for concessions or territory. It is not simply between different systems. It is the age-old battle for the survival of Liberty itself". Sincerely, b(6)
