THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON August 9, 1983 Dear Joe: Thank you for your letter of August 2nd with regard to the Nissan plant and the President visiting it for the opening.

Mal Runyeng ident of Nissan USA, has written you requesting the President attend the official opening of the As you may know, this plan represents the largest investment by a Japanese company anywhere in the world. There is a stong possi- bility that several of the members of the Japanese government will be in attendance at this opening. I realize the political atmosphere around the October date may influence whether the President will actually come or not, but Mr. Runyon is willing to accept that risk. It is also understood that because you are planning a trip to Japan in November there may be some reason why the October 21st event would not be appropriate or, on the other hand, would be most appropriate. We do, however, appreciate your consideration and look forward to knowing whether there is a possibility for this visit as soon as you can let us know. Look forward to seeing from you.

He is motivated primarily by a nearly fanatic devotion to Reagan's interests and a visceral anti-Communism. Clark's first job in the Administration was deputy to then Secretary of State Al- exander Haig, who argued vociferously that the Soviet Union was going to "test" the U.S. in Central America by promoting leftist revolution. Haig went so far as to draw up contingency plans for blockading Cuba to prevent the shipment of Soviet arms from there to Nicaragua and to reb- els in El Salvador.

It was, I suppose, a year or so ahead of its time, and a little too complicated unlike the successful Proposition 13. Anyway, what I'm writing about is a client of ours, the Whale's Tail Restaurant, in the beautiful Channel Island Harbor (not far from the area you and the Presidential party sometimes arrive). It's a lovely, dockside restaurant the finest in the area.

Please convey to the Ambassador Mr. Deaver's regards. With best wishes, Sincerely, white William F. Sittmann Special Assistant to the President Mr. Roman Papadiuk Special Assistant Office of the Ambassador Embassy of the United States Mexico City, Mexico EMBASSY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA MEXICO OFFICE OF THE AMBASSADOR Biol tell have him no we terest. July 26, 1983 Mr. Michael Deaver Deputy Chief of Staff Assistant to the President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. Deaver: Ambassador Gavin complied with the enclosed request for an interview during his July trip to Washington, D.C. The Ambassador did so in the belief that the President, Mrs. Deaver and Mrs. Baker had an interest in the program that Ms. Stebbins is producing, as explained in the enclosed memorandum based on a conversation Ms. Stebbins had with the Embassy's Press Officer. The Ambassador would like confirmation of whether the President and Mrs. Deaver actually have an interest in the program. Sincerely, Roman Popaching Roman Popadiuk Special Assistant RP/csr Encl. as stated May 23rd, 1983 Lee Johnson, IO See Request for Television Interview The Ambassador Through: Stanley A. Zuckerman, PAO Diane Stebbins, an independent television producer in Washington, D.C., asked whether you would be willing to appear on their program, "Americans Coming Together" sometime soon when you are in Washington. The format of the program is like a news magazine, and consists of interviews and stories on American initiative and volunteers working in communities and with their neighbors. It. is, she said, a program supportive of private sector initiatives - following the President's leadership in that field. Frank Beach is the director of the program and Julian Barber is the host. The filming would take place in the U.S.© Chamber of Commerce, blocks from the White House. It would be about a 10 minute segment of the one-half hour program. The rest of the program would consist of something on crime prevention, an interview with a celebrity, a bit on a project on senior citizens, (you), a project on day care centers, and a brief interview with a community leader working on a boys project. (If I understand her correctly.) Mrs. Deaver and Mrs. Baker would see the tape, and, according to Ms. Stebbins, the President would know of your participation. Her hope is to make the program weekly, it is now done sporadically. The reason for you: because you are quite well known in the United States, said she. USIS/LJ/ca
