THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON July 18, 1984 Dear Mr. Strauss: I want you to know that I have received your July 16th letter regarding Donald Dotson. I sincerely appreciate your taking your time to apprise me of your feelings. It is always good to hear favorable words regarding a Presidential appointment. You can be assured that your comments are valued. I am taking the liberty of passing your correspondence along to John Herrington, Director of Presi- dential Personnel for his information. With best wishes, Sincerely, Mike MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. Curt L. Strauss President Hansley Industries, Inc. 3 East 54th Street, 19th Floor New York, New York 10022 WHANSL HANSLEY INDUSTRIES, INC. 3 EAST 54TH STREET 19TH FLOOR NEW YORK, N.Y. 10022 212/688-4040 July 16, 1984 Mr. Michael Deaver Deputy Chief of Staff and Assistant to the President The White House Washington, D. C. 20500 Dear Mr. Deaver: Please be advised that those of us actively engaged in the manufacture of appael products feel that Mr. Donald L. Dotson, current Chairman of the National Labor Relations Board, is doing an excellent job. We strongly object to the ever increasing attacks upon Mr. Dotson by a variety of labor organizations, and we urge you to prevent the resignation of this able man. Sincerely yours, HANSLEY INDUSTRIES, INC. leased t Curt L. Strauss President CLS:dc THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON July 18, 1984 Tele MEMORANDUM FOR: JAMES K. COYNE FROM: MICHAEL K. DEAVER hime SUBJECT: PERSONNEL Your memo on replacing Holly Stewart has reached my desk just as I was reviewing the personnel needs of my entire organization. With the campaign upon us, I have been inundated with requests from the First Lady's Office, Advance, and Scheduling to provide additional support to help with the increased workload they are experiencing. Unfortunately, we have a finite number of personnel slots, and the chances of increasing allocations are slim, at best. While I will be unable to satisfy all of these requests, I must try to allocate our limited resources where they can do their best. By not filling Holly Stewart's position, her slot can be transferred to an area of more immediate need. Jim, I know this will put a burden on you and your plans for the young astronauts program; but I am sure you will agree that meeting the needs of the coming months is our most important priority. Thank you. THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON July 19, 1984 Dear John: I, too, enjoyed seeing you the other night at the Wicks' home. I want you to know I have received your letter recommending Mrs. Joseph Gildenhorn for the position of Kennedy Center Trustee. I am taking the liberty of forwarding your cor- respondence along to John Herrington, Director of Presidential Personnel. I am sure you will be hearing from him soon. Thank you again for writing, I sincerely appreciate your interest in bringing to our attention Mrs. Gildenhorn's qualifications for the position. With best wishes, Sincerely, mike MICHAEL K. DEAVER Assistant to the President Deputy Chief of Staff Mr. John S. Erthein John S. Erthein & Associates Inc. 1776 K Street, N.W. Suite 900 Washington, D.C. 20006 JOHN S. ERTHEIN & ASSOCIATES INC. July 17, 1984 The Honorable Michael K. Deaver Deputy Chief of Staff and Assistant to the President The White House Washington, D. C. 20500 Dear Mike: It was good seeing you again at the Wicks' home this past Thursday. I am writing this letter to urge you to support the candidacy of Mrs. Joseph Gildenhorn for Kennedy Center Trustee and I am enclosing a package of information about her. Alma is a member of the Planning Committee for the Endowment of the National Cultural Center (Kennedy Center). She was co- chairman last year of the highly successful Placido Domingo Gala which benefited the Kennedy Center's project for the renovation of the Opera House. She will now be serving as co-chairman of the Washington Committee for the Kennedy Center's Capital Fund Campaign. It is my understanding that her personal contribution to this effort is $100,000. Joe and Alma are good friends of the Administration and are outstanding Jewish community leaders. I would highly recommend that Alma be considered as a candidate for Kennedy Center Trustee. I believe that this appointment would have the endorsement of the Chairman, Mr. Roger Stevens. As an alternative, she would be effective on an appropriate high level Presidential Arts or Humanities Board. Mike, I would very much like to visit with you to further discuss 'Mrs. Gildenhorn's qualifications and the importance of this appointment. Any help or suggestions that you might offer would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, John John S. & Erthein Eithein JSE:jg Encls. CC: Mrs. Bruce K.

Although I am certain you know that the President supports all Republican candidates at every level, unfortunately, your request for Presidential endorsement for Mr. Brimer cannot be granted. We must reserve White House endorsements only for statewide candidates based on the fact that the sheer number of state and local elections could diminish the effectiveness of such an endorsement. I hope you understand our position in this matter. Keep up your good work - we appreciate it. With best wishes, Sincerely, mike MICHAEL K.

Take a good look at the man who will serve ALL the people of the District that man is Kim Brimer. Kim is intelligent, young and attractive, and able to articulate his opinions in public forums. The 96th Legislative District deserves a representative who is in touch with the wishes and needs of the people in his district. Kim Brimer will accurately reflect and represent the views and desires of the people of the district. S S $ S S R TEXAS Here's what Kim has to say about important issues facing the district today. 1.

KIM BRIMER WILL BE A STRONG VOICE FOR CONSERVATIVE SOLUTIONS. THE PEOPLE OF THE 96TH DISTRICT DESERVE MATURE REPRESENTATION. Political Advertising Paid for by Kenneth "Kim" Brimer Campaign Fund, Dr. William Ed Balderas, Treasurer June 20, 1984 The President of the United States White House Washington, D.C. Dear President Reagan: I am convinced that now is the time to take positive steps in determining the kind of representation we have at the State level. The magnitude of the decisions made by our Legislators and the long term consequences of these decisions are awesome. It is imperative that we elect men who will carry forth the President's ideas and platforms at a state level. We have a gentleman who is running for State Representative in the 96th Legislative District who will carry forth the President's philosophy. That man is Kenneth "Kim" Brimer. Kim Brimer is an established business and community leader who understands the Free Enterprise System, and strongly feels that the philosophy of the President must be implemented at a state level. Presently, Kim is serving as President and principal owner of American Insurance Agency, Inc. He has served as Vice President of the Independent Insurance Agents of Tarrant County, Director of the Texas Chapter of Certified Insurance Counselors, Regional Vice President of the Texas Insurance Men and Women's Political Action Committee, and is a member of the Presidential Task Force Committee. Statistics from the State Republican Party show that this District will give a strong Republican candidate 56% of the vote in November 1984. With your help and support in the form of a letter of endorsement we can take this seat lost only two years earlier. The 96th District is historically conservative. We must give these people a clear choice of the conservative candidate and with your help we will be able to get that message to them. Warmest Regards, Pat Jacobson On November 6, 1984, the people of the 96th State Legislative District have an opportunity to elect a strong, conservative leader to represent them in Austin. I would like to bring to your attention one such individual, who I believe, merits your consideration and support Kenneth "Kim" Brimer. Kim is a strong conservative businessman who has the ability to get things done. Because of Kim's conservative philosophy, he will be an independent voice working towards an end to bureaucratic growth. I hope I have succeeded in conveying my genuine enthusiasm for Kim, his campaign, and the opportunity they present for the people of Texas in his District. I look forward to hearing that through your efforts, you have endorsed not only Kim's conservative philosophy, but further my effort to put more power in the hands of the Local and State governing bodies. Sincerely, President Ronald Reagan THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON July 19, 1984 MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT FROM: MICHAEL K. DEAVER M SUBJECT: Recognition of Defense Department Support for Private Sector Initiatives Jim Coyne has brought to my attention the outstanding Defense Department support that Cap Weinberger has developed for our Private Sector Initiatives (PSI) program. Recently he wrote to Cap to highlight some of the most important contributions. A copy of his memorandum is attached. By providing significant voluntary resources to help achieve domestic policy objectives, Cap has helped to increase public awareness of the indirect contributions that the defense program makes to social and economic needs. This has occurred at a time when public support for strengthening national security was critical. I think it is appropriate for you to personally recognize DOD's achievements, and it would help to ensure even greater PSI support from the hundreds of defense installations around the Country. Therefore, I recommend that you approve the attached correspondence to Cap. THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON July 20, 1984 Dear Dr. McHugh: We have received your kind letter of July 16 to Mr. Deaver complimenting him on his remarks given on July 11th to the Citizens for America session. It is our pleasure to send along to you for future possible use the saying which was given by the President in 1976. It goes something like this: Though I am wounded, I am not slain. I'll lay me down and rest a while And then I'll rise to fight again. Thank you again for taking your time to send your kind comments to Mr. Deaver.

Permit me to thank you for your splendid remarks and, at the same time, ask a favor of you. In your remarks you repeated a quote from an old Scottish saying which was spoken by the President in 1976.
