MEMORANDUM FOR JAMES A. BAKER, III
MICHAEL K. DEAVER
FROM
EDWARD V. HICKEY, JR.
Attached is another example of the type of
military we have in support of the President.
THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVY
WASHINGTON
The President of the United States takes pleasure in presenting the
NAVY AND MARINE CORPS MEDAL to
CAPTAIN KENNETH J. GLUECK, JR.
UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS
for service as set forth in the following
CITATION:
For heroism while serving at Marine Helicopter Squadron ONE,
Executive Flight Detachment, Naval District Washington, Anacostia,
Washington, D.C. At approximately 0750 on 23 February 1984,
Captain Glueck became aware of cries for help from the vicinity of
the fuel truck which services Squadron aircraft at the facility.
Running toward the truck, he learned from Marines congregating
around it that a Staff Sergeant was trapped inside the tank and
apparently unconscious. Although acutely aware of the danger of
explosion or suffocation, Captain Glueck descended into the tank
to retrieve the stricken Marine. Inching his way forward in the
dark, partially full tank, he located the unconscious and
convulsing Staff Sergeant in the most forward compartment.
Dragging and pushing the much larger Marine back through the tiny
passages of the tank, Captain Glueck realized that he himself
could lose consciousness from the toxic fumes and lack of oxygen.
Nevertheless, he continued to think clearly and deliberately and,
through only the greatest of effort, finally moved the Staff
Sergeant far enough aft that assisting Marines were able to pull
them both to safety. By his courageous and prompt actions in the
face of grave personal danger, Captain Glueck undoubtedly saved
the Staff Sergeant from permanent disability or death; thereby
reflecting great credit upon himself and upholding the highest
traditions of the Marine Corps and the United States Naval
Service.
For the President,
John Jahn

Dear Mr. Deaver:
I got to thinking some time ago of the possibility
of using the pensions that men like Ted Kennedy and Tip O'Neill
vote themselves or are willing to accept as a partial answer to the
Democratic charge of lack of compassion and fairness. I understand
that if Kennedy were to retire at the end of his present term he
would receive a pension of over one milli and one half dollars.
As I was thinking of writing you---not knowing the address of the
Republican National Committee along these lines our local paper
produced the enclosed.
Don't answer this letter. The idea may or may not
have any value.
Sincerely yours

AMBASSADOR JOSEPH VERNER REED

KINGDOM OF MOROCCO
Fellow Americans,
"Join hand and hand,
Brave Americans all!"
(The Liberty Song 1768)
Today is our Great National
Holiday, for it is on July 4 that we
celebrate that perfect fusing of
idealism and action which gave birth to
the United States of America. Those
Founding Fathers who gathered in
Philadelphia on that hot July day in
1776 left all of us a precious legacy
of freedom and determination coupled
with the unquenchable belief that the
future was ours to create. They remind
us that the present need not be
shackled by the past and that what an
individual "did and does" did and does
make a difference.
That handful of Patriots who
changed the world stand before us in a
special way every July 4. The Patriots
challenge us to accept and live up to
the ideals to which they pledged their
lives, their fortune, and their sacred
honor. Every American knows what those
ideals are:
Liberty
Justice
Equality
National Independence.
What we celebrate today is the fact
that we have preserved these ideals for
over 200 years; it is America's
proudest triumph as a people and as a
nation.
As with any birthday, those of us
who celebrate this July 4 - our birth-
day as a people - feel the pull of the
past and our need to rejoice in the
glorious achievements of our history.
Yet if we are to keep faith with those
brave representatives of the thirteen
colonies, we must not allow ourselves
to become complacent. While instruct-
ing the nation in the unsurpassable
joys of freedom, they also never ceased
to remind the infant republic that
liberty would always demand vigilance
and sacrifice. Americans have never
forgotten that lesson, and from Valley
Forge to Lebanon, Americans have given
their lives to preserve freedom and
peace.
Today is a day for all of us to
pause a second, reflect for a moment or
to meditate on what it truly means to
be an American. Those Patriots who
signed their names to our Declaration
of Independence did much more than
"free" thirteen colonies. For over 200
years, and across an entire continent,
they have stood as "Liberators of the
Spirit" of each and every American.
America has stood tall to the world as
the land of the free. As Americans we
are free to learn what we wish, go
where we want, think and pray what we
will. Such liberation of the human
mind and spirit has been known in few
lands and times. Yet, it has been the
birthright of every American for over
200 years.
So, for us today we must celebrate
what America is:
Hope
Freedom
Daring
Risk
Liberation of the Human Spirit.
Just how powerful is the force of
our democracy within a Republic is
summed up by the demand of our First
President, George Washington, when he
made his tour of New England following
his inauguration at Federal Hall in New
York City:
"Be Americans! Let there
be no sectionalism, no
North, South, East or
West: You are dependent
one on another and should
be one in Union. In one
word be a Nation, be
Americans and be true to
yourselves."

DU 208ème ANNIVERSAIRE DE
L'INDEPENDANCE DES ETATS-UNIS
par
M. Joseph Verner Reed
Ambassadeur des Etats-Unis

4 Juillet 1984
Compatriotes,
"Joignez vos mains,
Vaillants Américains !"
(Le Chant de la Liberté, 1768)
Aujourd'hui est notre Grand Jour de
Fête Nationale, car c'est le 4 juillet
que nos célébrons cette parfaite fusion
d'idéalisme et d'action qui a donné
naissance aux Etats-Unis d'Amérique.
Ces Pères Fondateurs qui se sont réunis
en cette chaude journée de juillet
1776, nous ont laissé à tous un pré-
cieux héritage de liberté et de déter-
mination, lié à l'inébranlable con-
viction qu'il nous appartient de créer
l'avenir. Il nous rappellent que c'est
à nous qu'il revient de créer cet
avenir. Ils nous rappellent que le pré-
sent n'a pas à être entravé par le pas-
sé, et qu'il est une différence entre
ce que l'on "a accompli" et ce que l'on
"accomplit".
Cette poignée de patriotes qui ont
changé le monde, se dresse devant nous
de manière bien particulière chaque 4
juillet. Ces patriotes nous défient de
vivre selon ces idéaux pour lesquels
ils ont engagé leur vie, leur fortune
et leur honneur sacré. Chaque Américain
sait ce que sont ces idéaux :
Liberté
Justice
Egalité
Indépendance Nationale
Ce que nous célébrons aujourd'hui,
c'est le fait d'avoir préservé ces
idéaux pendant plus de deux cents ans;
c'est la gloire la plus fière de l'Amé-
rique en tant que peuple et que nation.
Comme pour tout anniversaire, ceux
d'entre nous qui célèbrent ce 4 juillet
-notre anniversaire en tant que peuple-
ressentent l'attraction du passé et ce
besoin de nous réjouir des glorieux
accomplissements de notre histoire.
Cependant, si nous voulons tenir nos
engagements envers ces vaillants repré-
sentants des treize colonies, nous ne
devons jamais nous permettre d'être
entièrement satisfaits de soi. Tout en
enseignant à la nation les joies insur-
passables de la liberté, ils ne ces-
sèrent jamais de rappeler à la
République naissante, que la liberté
exigerait toujours vigilance et sacri-
fice. Les Américains n'ont jamais
oublié o cette leçon, et, de Valley Forge
au Liban, les Américains ont donné leur
vie pour préserver la liberté et la
paix.
Cette journée est pour nous tous
l'occasion d'observer une pause, de
réfléchir un moment ou de méditer sur
ce que signifie vraiment le fait d'être
Américain. Ces patriotes qui ont ins-
crit leur nom au bas de la Déclaration
de l'Indépendance, ont fait bien plus
que libérer treize colonies. Durant
plus de deux cents ans, à travers tout
un continent, ils sont restés les
"Libérateurs de l'Esprit" de chaque
Américain. L'Amérique se dresse de toute
sa hauteur face au monde, comme le pays
de la liberté. En tant qu'Américains,
nous sommes libres d'apprendre ce que
nous désirons, d'aller où nous
souhaitons, de penser ce que nous
voulons et de prier comme nous le
voulons aussi. Une telle libération de
la pensée et de l'esprit humains, ne
s'est produite que dans quelques pays
et à certaines époques. Toutefois, cela
a été le droit de naissance pour chaque
Américain depuis plus de deux cents ans.
Aussi, nous réjouissons-nous au-
jourd'hui de célébrer ce que représente
l'Amérique,
Espoir
Liberté
Témérité
Risque
Libération de l'Esprit Humain.
Le degré de force de notre démo-
cratie dans une république, est résumé
par l'appel lancé par notre premier
President, George Washington, lors de
sa visite à la Nouvelle-Angleterre
après son investiture au Federal Hall
de la ville de New-York:
"Soyez des Américains!
Qu'il n'y ait aucun ré-
gionalisme, ni Nord, ni
Sud, ni Est ou Ouest :
Vous êtes tous dépen-
dants les uns des
autres et vous ne devez
former qu'un au sein de
l'Union. En un mot,
soyez une nation, soyez
des Américains et soyez
sincères envers vous-
mêmes".

Dear Mike:
Just a short note to let you know how superb the proposed appoint-
ments for our National Council on the Arts are. They will, in my view,
bring credit to the President -- not only politically, but also in the
arts community. In fact, I don't think it is hyperbole to say that they
will be viewed as among the very best set of appointments ever made to
the National Council.
I think all concerned deserve great credit. I am sure your own
fine hand is to be found in the mix. Thank you so much.
It continues to be my great privilege to serve President Reagan.
His leadership in general, and these appointments in particular, make
it a real pleasure and honor to be part of this Administration.
Best regards.
Sincerely,
grank
F.S.M. Hodsoll
Chairman
P.S. I will be writing you separately, Mike, on the first awards of the
National Medal of Arts and of our Endowment's Twentieth Anniversary.
Thanks again for your help.

Dear Mike:
I thought you might be interested in the enclosed article praising
the landmark technical achievement represented by our spectacular
WORLDNET December 5, 1983, featuring President Reagan from the
White House, West German Chancellor Kohl from Athens, the Columbia
space shuttle astronauts in orbit, and journalists in seven
European capitals.
The article, published in the May 1984 edition of the prestigious
television industry magazine Broadcast Engineering, vividly
demonstrates that the achievements of WORLDNET have already won
recognition from broadcast industry leaders for revolutionizing
international communication.
Best regards.
Sincerely,
Prable

President of The United States

Dear Mr. President:
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Council on Foundations,
I invite you to welcome some 1,500 representatives of grantmaking
institutions to Washington next April on the occasion of the 36th
Annual Conference of the Council on Foundations.
The Council on Foundations is a national membership organization
representing more than 1,000 of the nation's private, community,
and company foundations and corporate contributors. Our annual
conference is a singularly, unique opportunity for these grantmakers
to share information on current funding concerns, national trends
and management issues.
As someone who has stressed the importance of the private philanthropic
sector, we feel it would be particularly appropriate to ask you to
give brief welcoming remarks at one of the plenary sessions of the
conference. The actual session at which you make a presentation may
be determined by your availability the week of the conference which
will be held April 24-26, 1985, at the Sheraton Washington Hotel.
We would also like to invite you to meet informally with the Council's
Board of Directors; this would be an ideal opportunity to share your
concerns regarding the health and future of the private philanthropic
sector. For your convenience, this meeting could be held at the White
House on any conference day, April 24-27, 1985.
I hope you will consider participating in this important conference,
and will look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
James A. Joseph
President

My dear mr. Deaver:
I thank you very much for your arranging for me
to call on and talk with the President on 9 July
and my thanks also go to your sending me a
photograph of the President and me, autographed by
the President.
It was indeed a rare opportunity arailable only
to a few who have a warm-hearted and influential
friend like you.
Among other things I was very happy to observe
that the President was mentally and physically fit
for re. election.
I would appreciate they much if you transmit
my thanks and best regards to the President,
Sincerely,
