I appreciate your interest in having them and regret that this must be a disappointing reply. However, because of the great number of requests the President receives for mementoes, it is not possible to oblige them all. He believes it is unfair to select a few for preferential treatment while ex- cluding others. Your interest is appreciated, and we know you will understand. Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Don Chalif Toro Canyon Creek Ranch 736 Toro Canyon Road Santa Barbara, CA 93108 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 Dear Mrs. Daly: Thank you for your letter inviting me to address Business Week's "Corporate Planning 100" Senior Planner's Roundtable. I'm afraid I simply can't schedule any additional time away from the White House. I do appreciate you inviting me and wish you success with your plans for the program. I have taken the liberty of forwarding your request to Miss Judy Pond, White House Speaker's Bureau, to try to arrange for a substitute. You will be hearing from her office soon. Again, thank you for your kind invitation. Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mrs. Barbara J. Daly Project Manager Business Week 1221 Avenue of the Americas New York, N.Y. 10020 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 Dear Al: It was good to hear from you, and nice of you to offer to help. Thanks for your good words of commendation. It's been a tremendous challenge and continues on a daily basis but the reward comes from knowing you're finally getting a chance to do some of the things we've talked about for years. Let us know when you'll be back this way. Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Al Read 11615 Riverside Drive North Hollywood, CA 91602 ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF STATE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 I'll Mr. Michael K. Deaver Deputy Chief of Staff and tile Assistant to the President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. Deaver: Recently Stan Anderson served as the head of the U.S. Delegation to the U.N. Conference on New and Renewable Sources of Energy in Nairobi. I am writing first to thank you for approving him as head of this delegation, and second, to tell you that he did a superb job. In his meetings with heads of other dele- gations, many of them heads of government or energy ministers, and in his leadership of the U.S. delegation, which included some cantankerous congressmen, Stan was a model of precise language, forceful leadership, and cordiality. Because he was not a minister or even a government official, Stan was in a difficult postion vis-a-vis many other heads of delegation. I think he put in a splendid performance which was of considerable service to us. Sincerely, Elliott Abrams Bureau of International Organization Affairs EA:ks THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 Dear Bill: Since receiving your letter of July 27, 1981, we have taken a closer look at the anchovy question. So far this is what we have seen: The Pacific Fishery Management Council, which answers to Malcolm Baldrige, Secretary of Commerce, annually updates a management plan for the anchovy resource on the west coast. This year, the Marine Resources Company of Seattle (50 percent owned by the Soviet Union and 50 percent owned by American fishing interests) has applied to the Council for a joint-venture permit to purchase and process 4 species of fish off southern California. The Magnuson Fishery and Conservation Act of 1976 permits this when American processors are unlikely to use all the fish American vessels could harvest. That determination is yet to be made. The Council has recommended that the joint-venture be allowed to purchase 3 species from American fisherman for processing on a Soviet factory ship: 10,000 metric tons of anchovies; 15,000 metric tons of jack mackerel, and 2,500 metric tons of squid. Last year the total fish meal quota for anchovies was 166,400 tons and the U.S. fleet--the only fleet involved-- landed about 62,000 tons. This year the Council says that the fish meal quota could be increased to 359,285 tons from a total anchovy resource estimated at 2,803,000. That figure already takes into account the amount of anchovies the Mexican fishery will take. The Council will be meeting soon to discuss the anchovy plan and may make additional adjust- ments in these figures. However, the revisions should be minor. We are awaiting Malcolm's analysis of the joint-venture proposal in light of the suggestions that have already been made, and will consider it in context with you analysis. We are also fortunate in being able to use Ray Arnett's experience with the anchovy fishery as a sounding board for the decision we will be reaching soon. THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON Thank you for your assistance and expression of concern. Sincerely, MICHAEL J. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. William A. Nott President, Sportfishing Association of California 555 East Ocean Boulevard Suite 700-A Long Beach, California 90802 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 Dear Bill: Thank you for the gift of quail while we were in Santa Barbara. I'm sorry I wasn't at home SO I could have prepared them myself, but the hotel did a commendable job. The staff did their part, too, when the feast was laid before them. Thanks again for your thoughtfulness. Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Bill Berkan P.O. Box 700 Dixon, California 95620 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 Dear Charlie: Thank you for bringing the Alaskan LNG proposal to my attention. Right now, as Ravi Tikkoo notes in his letter to Sonny Werblin, the Federal government is operating on the assumption that the Alaskan gas will be transported to the U.S. mainland through a pipeline that the Northwest Energy Company will construct. This is because President Carter chose this firm's proposal in 1977 over a number of competing proposals, including a proposal to use LNG tankers. Under the Alaska Natural Gas Transportation Act of 1977, the Northwest Energy Company consortium has requested the President to submit to the Congress a list of waivers of Federal law needed to permit the financing of the project. The Cabinet Council on Natural Resources and the Environment is considering the waiver requests and will make a recommendation to the Presi- dent on the content of the submission to Congress. After that, the Congress has 60 days in which to approve the waivers. If Congress denies the waiver request, the Northwest Energy Company would presumably have to withdraw its pipeline proposal. Thus it would appear that it would be best to wait until the Congress has completed action on the current Alaska gas trans- portation proposals before the Administration gives consideration to alternative proposals. The situation should become clear by the middle or end of this summer. Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Charles Z. Wick Director International Communication Agency Suite 700 1750 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20547 MKD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 Dear Mr. Hart: I want to thank you for your kind letter of August 9th and for the copies of Songs of the First Glass which you included. It was good of you to send your work, and Mrs. Deaver and I indeed appreciate your thoughtfulness. I have passed along the copy for President and Mrs. Reagan and am sure they will enjoy it as well. Your expression of confidence in the Adminis- tration means a great deal to all of us here. Again, thank you for your steadfast support. With best wishes. Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. John Raymond Hart 12 Waltham Terrace Blackrock Dublin, Ireland THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 3, 1981 Dear Marshall: Thanks for the autographed copy of The Last Ambassador. I hope I'll be able to get into it immediately, since it has been highly touted. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness and look forward to seeing you soon. Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Marshall Coyne 2211 30th Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. MKD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Hagen: Thank you for your recent letters. I enjoyed reading your poems and was glad that I was able to be of help to you in 1979. I know that the President will enjoy seeing your poem and reading your comments about his early days in radio. I have forwarded your letters to the President's office. You should be hearing from them in the next few weeks. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Jim Hagen Post Office Box 38 Valyermo, CA 93563 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mrs. Wood: Thank you for your recent message concerning immigration. In recent years our Nation has seen an increase in immigration. While America is a nation of immigrants and is rightly proud of its divergent ethnic back- ground, we must also recognize that no country can hope to accommodate all those who seek a better life or flee persecution. This Administration believes that we must develop more efficient and effective immigration policies. To this end, it recently released a set of proposals aimed at providing a more viable and consistent approach to immigration. I have taken the liberty of enclosing a copy of those proposals which I be- lieve will answer many of your questions and speak to the concerns which you expressed in your letter. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mrs. William Wood Post Office Box 22047 Oklahoma City, OK 83123 MKD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Smith: Thank you for your recent message concerning immigration.

DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Alex McBrayer 821 Park City Road Rossville, GA 30741 MKD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Andrus: Thank you for your recent message. It was good of you to take the time to bring your views on the Voting Rights Act and the Middle East to my attention. President Reagan firmly believes that no person should be deprived of their right to vote. He also endorses a philosophy of government aimed at reducing the role of the Federal government in determining local and state policies. Currently, the President is awaiting a report from the Justice Department concerning possible amendments to the Voting Rights Act. Your comments regarding this law are appreciated and will be considered. In the meantime, you should be aware that the initial decision regarding the extension of the Voting Rights Act rests with Congress. With regard to the Middle East, the President is deeply concerned that a just and lasting solution to the problems which have plagued that area be achieved. You can be sure that every decision made by this Administra- tion will make the peace and stability of that region its ultimate goal. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Edgar Andrus Route 4, Box 65EA Folsom, LA 70437 M THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Lieutenant Dantzler: Thank you for your recent letter. I know that the President will be as pleased as I was to hear of your support for his Administration. We are con- fident that the policies which we have adopted will bring about improvements in the National economy and it is good to know that you share that confidence with us. I must also thank you for your kind words concerning me. I hope that I will prove worthy of them as this Administration continues to develop policies and programs to safeguard our country's future. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Lt. Louis M. Dantzler PSC Box 55281 Mather AFB, CA 95655 MICD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Fairfield: Thank you for your recent message. I enjoyed reading your humorous comments and, all jesting aside, was pleased with your support for the manner in which this Administration handled the encounter between United States and Libyan military aircraft. I agree with your emphasis on the importance of humor and paradox in placing events in the proper perspective. Often a prescient and irreverant remark can do more than a mountain of serious studies to clarify and refine the issues surrounding any given decision. Again, thank you for taking the time to write. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Roy P. Fairfield 11 Bayberry Road East Biddefore, ME 04005 MKD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Stamer: Thank you for your recent letter and the publication you enclosed with it. Let me assure you that this Administration is dedicated to reducing the burden which Federal regulation and red tape have placed on business and industry. For too long, government agencies have been allowed to expand their activities without serious review of the effect which these activities have had on our economy and business enter- prises. This Administration intends to reverse that trend by eliminating or reforming those regulations which have proven to be burdensome and unnecessary. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Howard Stamer Chairman of the Board Agoil, Inc. Suite 550 1800 Southwest First Avenue Portland, OR 97201 MKD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Barger: Thank you for your recent message concerning the decontrol of natural gas. As you may already know, this Administration is dedicated to eliminating or reforming those Federal regulations which have proven to be overly burdensome and counter-productive. Your comments regarding the benefits to be had from the decontrol of natural gas at this time are deeply appreciated. You can be sure that this Administration will give careful attention to your proposal as we continue to curtail government interference in our national economy.

Barger 2600 West Country Club Drive Oklahoma City, OK 73116 MRD THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Austin: Thank you for your recent message. It was good of you to take the time to bring your views to my attention. I am sure that President Reagan will find your suggestions concerning economic policy as interesting as I have. You can be sure that they will receive serious consideration from this Administration. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Louis C. Austin Box 642 Mojave, CA 93501 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Loret: Thank you for your recent message. I enjoyed reading your remarks to the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco and was glad to hear that your domestic trip was a success. Certainly the Peace Corps provides important services for many nations and has become an important part of our overall foreign policy. I look forward to hearing of future developments within the Peace Corps and, should a mutually convenient time arise, meeting with you and Everitt Alvarez. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K.

Washington, D.C. 20525 THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 4, 1981 Dear Mr. Eckler: Thank you for your recent message concerning the United States Postal Service. As you mentioned in your letter, President Reagan is determined to reduce the size and the cost of the Federal govern- ment. I appreciate the time you have taken to inform me of some of the planned expenditures of the Postal Service. You can be sure that this matter will be given serious consideration.

I enjoyed reading your comments concerning OPEC and the recent oil "glut." Certainly, oil is one of the most im- portant natural resources for both the United States and the rest of the industrialized world. The effect that future fluctuation in supply as well as the price of those supplies is of the greatest importance to every Western nation. You can be sure that your com- ments on these subjects have been carefully noted and will be seriously considered by this Administration. Again, thank you for taking the time to write.

I suggest you plan to spend some time at the Smithsonian Institute, see what is available at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and perhaps take a side trip to Williamsburg.

Deaver Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff The White House Washington D.C. 20500 Dear Mike, Great work! What an outstanding job you have done, along with the President, to get that Tax Package approved in the House. It was a real coup; especially delightful was watching Tip O'Neill squirm and bite the dust for a change. I know only too well how difficult and exhausting your job has become and I realize more than most folks what you are doing back there for the President and for all of us out here in the west, Mike. I have enclosed our Annual edition of the Glenbrook News and the color brochure on Glenbrook for one reason only: To whet your appetite for a get-away-from-it-all vacation here in "God's country". My wife, Patti, and I would like you and Caroline, and perhaps another couple, if you wish, and of course your children also; to be our guests in one of our Victorian homes right here on Lake Tahoe where you are welcome to stay for one or two weeks, soak up some of our delicious mountain air and recover from what has to be a grueling rat race. September and October are superb months here. We really hope you'll come, even for a fewdays. Our weather has just been gorgeous; warm "dry" (not humid- Ugh!) days and cool, crisp nights. You won't be bothered by anyone, set your own schedule, sleep till noon, if you please, and just relax and enjoy. It is my way of saying thank you, Mike, nothing else. By the way you might like to play our new golf course, it was originally built in 1922 and has just been redone. Best CurtisP Regards, Curtis Patrick (702) 749-5663/749-5646 P.O.

President Reagan shares your deep con- cern for the unborn. He has repeatedly emphasized his commitment to protecting the lives of unborn children and has endorsed the idea of a Constitutional amendment to guarantee their right to life. The President personally spoke with Mrs. O'Connor and was satisfied that she shared his concern for the unborn. I know that President Reagan will admire your moral commitment to protecting in- nocent human life as much as I do. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K.

One of the most pleasant aspects of public life is the opportunities it affords to renew acquaintances with old friends. It was good of you to let me know of your views concerning the Federal Reserve Board. As you know, the Federal Reserve is an independent agency over which the White House cannot exert control. However, let me assure you that the present level of interest rates is of deep concern to every member of this Administration. You can be sure that as we continue to develop policies regarding the money supply and credit your views will be given serious attention. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K.

Presi- dent Reagan believes that his actions were necessary to maintain the integrity of, and respect for, the law. Again, many thanks for your letter of support and friendship. With best wishes, Sincerely, MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Ray Seery 1036 Sussex Avenue Randolph, NJ 07869
