SUBJECT:
Letter Concerning NASA Involvement
in the Labor Relations of Contractor
Company in Orlando, Florida
This matter may be closed out, with no need for action by
our office. As you will see from the attached, the incoming
letter to the President was appropriately answered on
September 4 by NASA. The Teamsters were decisively defeated
in the union election, the employees deciding in favor of no
union, and the Teamsters have decided not to challenge the
results.

Re:
Lockheed Space Operations Company
Kennedy Center (Shuttle Processing)
Dear Mr. President:
On behalf of the over 1.8 million members of the
International Brotherhood of Teamsters. I am writing to make
you aware of a situation with grave consequence not only for
the Teamsters Union, but also for the American labor movement
in general. I have learned from our involved affiliate that
the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has not
remained neutral in the labor relations of one of its contrac-
tor companies, and has, in fact, openly and selectively
interfered with the attempts made by the Teamsters to organize
employees of a Government contractor. NASA's conduct contra-
venes 41 C.F.R., Sec. 12.101(b), which states in pertinent part:
"NASA officials will remain impartial in, and
will refrain from taking a position on the merits
of, a dispute between labor and private management...
"
Teamsters Local Union No. 385 in Orlando, Florida, is
currently organizing the employees of the Lockheed Space
Operations Company which has a Shuttle Processing contract
with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. After
many months of work, Teamster organizers have found their
efforts in jeopardy by concerted, inequitable and biased
actions on the part of Lockheed and NASA.
R

August 9, 1984
First, Lockheed maintains that it made provisions in its
contract with NASA for union organizing saying, "the company
would require a National Labor Relations Board election so
that (employees) would have the opportunity to vote for or
against a union in a government conducted secret election. "
This commitment however, is contradictory to the relationship
Lockheed allegedly entered into with the International
Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers in February
1984. The Machinists have claimed, after the Teamsters filed
a petition seeking to represent certain Shuttle Logistics
employees, that the IAM already had a collective bargaining
agreement covering certain of these employees. Unfortunately,
these Lockheed employees had been given no opportunity to
ratify a Machinist agreement, and had no knowledge that they
were being represented by the IAM.
Second, I am advised that NASA Labor Representative,
Harold Gooch, has openly encouraged the Machinists and the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, both of which
expressed an organizing interest in Lockheed after Teamsters
filed an RC petition, to take all actions necessary to prevent
the Teamster local from organizing Kennedy Center employees.
NASA's statements support Lockheed. In furtherance of an
apparent anti-Teamster campaign, Lockheed's attorneys have
sought postponement of a NLRB representation hearing on the
purported ground that "some of the job classifications being
sought to be included in the bargaining unit by the Petitioner
(Teamsters) may more appropriately be an accretion to either
the IAM or IBEW bargaining units.'
Third, Lockheed refers to the relationship it has with
NASA as constituting a "team." Lockheed has said that it is
not necessary for a "third party" union to intervene into its
working relationship with NASA to "establish and maintain a
fair, effective and positive working relationship" between
employees and management. NASA's support of Lockheed raises
serious questions as to the relationship between the company
and NASA, in view of NASA's obligation of neutrality in
private labor disputes.
Lastly, it has been learned that NASA has also been
involved in or given its secret approval to action against
employees favoring the Teamsters local. The actions have
included questioning and "security" searches of personal
property by security personnel at Kennedy Space Center.

Mr. President, it is clear NASA is involved in practices
which raise questions of its neutrality in the labor relations
of its contractor companies. The instances of questionable
behavior that I have provided give some indication of the
gravity of this situation. They cannot be ignored. It is for
this reason that I respectfully request your assistance in
finding an equitable solution to this problem.
I look forward to hearing from you in the very near
future regarding this matter.

Dear Mr. Roberts:
In accordance with your request to Mr. Jack O'Brien, NASA Deputy
General Counsel, I am enclosing incoming copies of the letters
from Mr. Jackie Presser to Mr. James Beggs and our responses
regarding the issues raised by the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters (IBT) relative to their organizing efforts of employees
of the Lockheed Space Operations Company at NASA's Kennedy Space
Center in Florida.
The election was conducted by the National Labor Relations Board
at Kennedy Space Center on September 21, 1984, and the results
are as follows: No Union - 553, Teamsters - 176, International
Association of Machinists - 5, and the International Alliance of
Theatrical and Stage Employees - 4.

Dear Mr. Presser:
Your letter dated August 9, 1984, to Mr. James Beggs regarding
the Teamsters organization campaign among the employees of the
Lockheed Space Operations Company has been referred to me for
review and reply.
As you know, Mr. Larry D. Parker, President and Business
Manager of Teamsters Local No. 385, directed an earlier letter
to Mr. Beggs which contains essentially the same issues that
you have referred to in your letter. A reply to Mr. Parker's
letter was mailed on August 30, 1984, which responded to each
of the representation issues raised by him. In a subsequent
telephone conversation with Mr. John Ring of your staff, he
confirmed to me that my response to Mr. Parker adequately
addressed these issues. Since the issues raised in your letter
are essentially the same as Mr. Parker's, I am enclosing a copy
of my reply letter to him.
We understand that the National Labor Relations Board Regional
Office has completed their hearings in Titusville, Florida on
this matter and have resolved the issues relative to an appro-
priate unit. We are also advised that they are scheduling a
representation election some time during the latter part of
September 1984.
We again wish to state that it is NASA's firm policy to remain
neutral regarding contractor labor representation issues. We
2
trust that the contents of this letter, along with a copy
of my letter to Mr. Parker, have adequately addressed the
issues referred to in your correspondence of August 9, 1984.
If you have any further questions, please let me know.

Dear Mr. Parker:
Your letter of August 6, 1984, to Mr. James Beggs regarding the
Teamsters organization campaign among the employees of Lockheed
Space Operations performing various functions on their Shuttle
Processing Contract with NASA at the Kennedy Space Center, has
been referred to me for review and reply.
For your information, there has been a consistent and firm NASA
policy of neutrality with regard to NASA contractor labor-manage-
ment issues particularly those pertaining to union representation.
As you know, these types of issues are normally handled by the
National Labor Relations Board and in most cases the final determi-
nations are made by the employees through secret ballot elections.
With regard to your stated concerns over Lockheed's alleged
"assurances" to NASA requiring an NLRB election in the event of
union organizing efforts and of your statement of job classifica-
tions "accretions," we feel it would be inappropriate for NASA
to comment on this issue. We are advised that Teamsters Local 385
has filed with the NLRB unfair labor practice charges against
Lockheed and IAM Lodge 166 on this matter.
Concerning your references to a "Lockheed-NASA-Team," quoted from
the July 18, 1984, letter of Mr. Schroter to Lockheed Space Shuttle
Operations employees, this is a common expression at the Space
Center. Every individual or group including the various labor
unions who contribute to the success of the Shuttle Program are
considered members of the "team." I am sure this is the proper
interpretation of that statement and has no reference to the
25
25th Anniversary
1958-1983
2
representation issues between your union and the Lockheed Company.
Let me assure you that the Lockheed Space Operations Company is
totally responsible for managing their Labor Relations on this
contract.
We have investigated your allegations concerning security type
issues and have been advised that the interrogation to which you
referred was a direct result of a reported break-in and theft of
company personnel documents sensitive to Lockheed. This matter
was handled properly in accordance with normal security procedures
and regulations.
Your allegations re statements you attributed to Mr. Harold Gooch
at a recent labor-management meeting appears to be inaccurate.
Mr. Gooch has emphatically stated that he did not voice nor infer
any preference for one union versus another. In reviewing this
matter with others present at that meeting, their recollections
confirm Mr. Gooch's position.
As the National Labor Relations Board is currently conducting
hearings in Titusville with respect to representation issues to
which you referred, hopefully many or all of the issues you have
raised will be resolved.
We again wish to state that it is NASA's firm policy to remain
neutral regarding contractor labor representation issues. We
trust that the contents of this letter have adequately addressed
the issues stated in your correspondence of August 6, 1984. If
you have any further questions, please let me know.

Dear Mr. Beggs:
I am writing to strongly request your attention and

THE UNITED STATES TRADE REPRESENTATIVE
WASHINGTON
20506
MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM:
William E. Brock
SUBJECT:
Section 337 Exclusion Order Issued by the U.S.
International Trade Commission in Certain Vinyl-
Covered Foam Blocks
By December 24, 1984, you must decide whether to take action with
respect to an exclusion order issued by the U.S. International
Trade Commission ("ITC") in Certain Vinyl-Covered Foam Blocks,
Inv. No. 337-TA-178. I recommend that you take no action with
respect to the exclusion order, thereby allowing the order to go
into effect.
On October 25, 1984, pursuant to section 337 of the Tariff Act of
1930, the ITC transmitted an exclusion order prohibiting the
importation of certain vinyl-covered foam blocks. The ITC issued
the order after determining that imported foam blocks
manufactured by a company from Hong Kong infringe a U.S. patent
owned by The Dolly Toy Co. of Tipp City, Ohio.
Under section 337(g), an ITC order must be transmitted to you for
a 60-day period of Presidential review. You may disapprove an
order for policy reasons, including the impact of the order on
the public health and welfare, competitive conditions in the U.S.
economy, the production of like or directly competitive items in
the U.S., and U.S. consumers. If you disapprove an exclusion
order, the ITC's order is without force and effect. You may also
expressly approve an order, rendering the order final and subject
to judicial review on appeal. Absent Presidential approval or
disapproval, the order goes into effect on the day following the
60-day review period.
I recommend that you take no action with respect to the Foam
Blocks exclusion order, thereby permitting the order to go into
effect. The members of the Trade Policy Committee (the Office of
the United States Trade Representative, the Council of Economic
Advisers, and the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense,
Energy, Interior, Justice, Labor, State, Transportation, and
Treasury) are in unanimous agreement with this recommendation.
In reviewing the exclusion order, the Trade Policy Staff
Committee found no policy concerns sufficient to justify
Presidential disapproval. The foam blocks in question are a
squeezable children's toy. There is no claim that foam blocks
are vital to the public health and welfare. Competition between
the patented foam blocks, other types of block toys, and other
toys ensures a wide array of consumer choice and vigorous
competition in the U.S. market. No representations have been
received from any foreign government and there is no evidence
that the order will have an adverse effect on our relations with
other nations. Accordingly, I recommend that the order be
permitted to go into effect.
OPTIONS
PRESIDENTIAL ACTION REQUIRED
Option 1 (Recommended)
Take no action. The order will
go into effect automatically on
December 25, 1984.
Option 2
Disapprove the order by
delivering notice to the ITC by
December 24, 1984. This will
render the order without force
and effect.
Option 3
Approve the order. Inform the
ITC of your approval by
December 24, 1984. The order
will then be subject to
judicial review on appeal.
RECOMMENDATION
Option 1: Take no action

Disapprove

SUBJECT:
Scandal in the Department of Agriculture
Tom Minary has written Mr. Baker to urge him to have the
Federal Bureau of Investigation launch an investigation into
the "worst criminal fraud bribery and conspiracy scandal in
the history of our country." That is, of course, the grain
drying shrinkage schedule scandal, allegedly involving
Cargill, Inc. and high-ranking Department of Agriculture
officials. Supposedly Cargill, conspiring with USDA,
brought about a shift from the use of tables developed by
Mr. Minary to measure grain shrinkage in elevators to a
different system more favorable to Cargill and less favor-
able to farmers. Minary has already contacted GAO and the
FBI directly. His allegations should be referred to Justice
for handling.

THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
January 9, 1985
Dear Mr. Jones:
Your letter of December 14, 1984 to Charles L. Jones of
White House Mails has been referred to this office for
consideration and response. In that letter you noted that
you had, some time ago, sent the President a letter re-
questing him to autograph ten enclosed two-dollar bills.
A review of White House files indicates that a reply was
sent to you on January 26, 1984, over the signature of Anne
Higgins, Director of Correspondence. Your money was en-
closed with the reply, which explained that it was White
House policy not to autograph currency. I am enclosing a
copy of the reply.
You will note that the reply contains your correct name,
street address, and zip code, but the town name is rendered
"Harhill" instead of "Haverhill." The town name in your
hand-written incoming letter (copy enclosed) does appear to
be "Harhill" rather than "Haverhill," which may explain the
discrepancy.
Sincerely,
Johrsobert

I am writing to make\nyou aware of a situation with grave consequence not only for\nthe Teamsters Union, but also for the American labor movement\nin general. I have learned from our involved affiliate that\nthe National Aeronautics and Space Administration has not\nremained neutral in the labor relations of one of its contrac-\ntor companies, and has, in fact, openly and selectively\ninterfered with the attempts made by the Teamsters to organize\nemployees of a Government contractor. NASA's conduct contra-\nvenes 41 C.F.R., Sec. 12.101(b), which states in pertinent part:\n\"NASA officials will remain impartial in, and\nwill refrain from taking a position on the merits\nof, a dispute between labor and private management...\n\"\nTeamsters Local Union No. 385 in Orlando, Florida, is\ncurrently organizing the employees of the Lockheed Space\nOperations Company which has a Shuttle Processing contract\nwith the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. After\nmany months of work, Teamster organizers have found their\nefforts in jeopardy by concerted, inequitable and biased\nactions on the part of Lockheed and NASA.\nR\nPage 2\nAugust 9, 1984\nFirst, Lockheed maintains that it made provisions in its\ncontract with NASA for union organizing saying, \"the company\nwould require a National Labor Relations Board election so\nthat (employees) would have the opportunity to vote for or\nagainst a union in a government conducted secret election. \"\nThis commitment however, is contradictory to the relationship\nLockheed allegedly entered into with the International\nAssociation of Machinists and Aerospace Workers in February\n1984. The Machinists have claimed, after the Teamsters filed\na petition seeking to represent certain Shuttle Logistics\nemployees, that the IAM already had a collective bargaining\nagreement covering certain of these employees. Unfortunately,\nthese Lockheed employees had been given no opportunity to\nratify a Machinist agreement, and had no knowledge that they\nwere being represented by the IAM.\nSecond, I am advised that NASA Labor Representative,\nHarold Gooch, has openly encouraged the Machinists and the\nInternational Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, both of which\nexpressed an organizing interest in Lockheed after Teamsters\nfiled an RC petition, to take all actions necessary to prevent\nthe Teamster local from organizing Kennedy Center employees.\nNASA's statements support Lockheed. In furtherance of an\napparent anti-Teamster campaign, Lockheed's attorneys have\nsought postponement of a NLRB representation hearing on the\npurported ground that \"some of the job classifications being\nsought to be included in the bargaining unit by the Petitioner\n(Teamsters) may more appropriately be an accretion to either\nthe IAM or IBEW bargaining units.'\nThird, Lockheed refers to the relationship it has with\nNASA as constituting a \"team.\" Lockheed has said that it is\nnot necessary for a \"third party\" union to intervene into its\nworking relationship with NASA to \"establish and maintain a\nfair, effective and positive working relationship\" between\nemployees and management. NASA's support of Lockheed raises\nserious questions as to the relationship between the company\nand NASA, in view of NASA's obligation of neutrality in\nprivate labor disputes.\nLastly, it has been learned that NASA has also been\ninvolved in or given its secret approval to action against\nemployees favoring the Teamsters local. The actions have\nincluded questioning and \"security\" searches of personal\nproperty by security personnel at Kennedy Space Center.\nPage 3\nAugust 9, 1984\nMr. President, it is clear NASA is involved in practices\nwhich raise questions of its neutrality in the labor relations\nof its contractor companies.

Parker, President and Business\nManager of Teamsters Local No. 385, directed an earlier letter\nto Mr. Beggs which contains essentially the same issues that\nyou have referred to in your letter. A reply to Mr. Parker's\nletter was mailed on August 30, 1984, which responded to each\nof the representation issues raised by him. In a subsequent\ntelephone conversation with Mr. John Ring of your staff, he\nconfirmed to me that my response to Mr. Parker adequately\naddressed these issues. Since the issues raised in your letter\nare essentially the same as Mr. Parker's, I am enclosing a copy\nof my reply letter to him.\nWe understand that the National Labor Relations Board Regional\nOffice has completed their hearings in Titusville, Florida on\nthis matter and have resolved the issues relative to an appro-\npriate unit. We are also advised that they are scheduling a\nrepresentation election some time during the latter part of\nSeptember 1984.\nWe again wish to state that it is NASA's firm policy to remain\nneutral regarding contractor labor representation issues. We\n2\ntrust that the contents of this letter, along with a copy\nof my letter to Mr. Parker, have adequately addressed the\nissues referred to in your correspondence of August 9, 1984.\nIf you have any further questions, please let me know.\nSincerely,\nRobert E.

Parker\nPresident and Business Manager\nTeamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen &\nHelpers Local No. 385\n122 North Kirkman Road\nOrlando, FL 32811\nDear Mr. Parker:\nYour letter of August 6, 1984, to Mr. James Beggs regarding the\nTeamsters organization campaign among the employees of Lockheed\nSpace Operations performing various functions on their Shuttle\nProcessing Contract with NASA at the Kennedy Space Center, has\nbeen referred to me for review and reply.\nFor your information, there has been a consistent and firm NASA\npolicy of neutrality with regard to NASA contractor labor-manage-\nment issues particularly those pertaining to union representation.\nAs you know, these types of issues are normally handled by the\nNational Labor Relations Board and in most cases the final determi-\nnations are made by the employees through secret ballot elections.\nWith regard to your stated concerns over Lockheed's alleged\n\"assurances\" to NASA requiring an NLRB election in the event of\nunion organizing efforts and of your statement of job classifica-\ntions \"accretions,\" we feel it would be inappropriate for NASA\nto comment on this issue. We are advised that Teamsters Local 385\nhas filed with the NLRB unfair labor practice charges against\nLockheed and IAM Lodge 166 on this matter.\nConcerning your references to a \"Lockheed-NASA-Team,\" quoted from\nthe July 18, 1984, letter of Mr. Schroter to Lockheed Space Shuttle\nOperations employees, this is a common expression at the Space\nCenter. Every individual or group including the various labor\nunions who contribute to the success of the Shuttle Program are\nconsidered members of the \"team.\" I am sure this is the proper\ninterpretation of that statement and has no reference to the\n25\n25th Anniversary\n1958-1983\n2\nrepresentation issues between your union and the Lockheed Company.\nLet me assure you that the Lockheed Space Operations Company is\ntotally responsible for managing their Labor Relations on this\ncontract.\nWe have investigated your allegations concerning security type\nissues and have been advised that the interrogation to which you\nreferred was a direct result of a reported break-in and theft of\ncompany personnel documents sensitive to Lockheed. This matter\nwas handled properly in accordance with normal security procedures\nand regulations.\nYour allegations re statements you attributed to Mr. Harold Gooch\nat a recent labor-management meeting appears to be inaccurate.\nMr. Gooch has emphatically stated that he did not voice nor infer\nany preference for one union versus another. In reviewing this\nmatter with others present at that meeting, their recollections\nconfirm Mr. Gooch's position.\nAs the National Labor Relations Board is currently conducting\nhearings in Titusville with respect to representation issues to\nwhich you referred, hopefully many or all of the issues you have\nraised will be resolved.\nWe again wish to state that it is NASA's firm policy to remain\nneutral regarding contractor labor representation issues. We\ntrust that the contents of this letter have adequately addressed\nthe issues stated in your correspondence of August 6, 1984.

Brock\nSUBJECT:\nSection 337 Exclusion Order Issued by the U.S.\nInternational Trade Commission in Certain Vinyl-\nCovered Foam Blocks\nBy December 24, 1984, you must decide whether to take action with\nrespect to an exclusion order issued by the U.S. International\nTrade Commission (\"ITC\") in Certain Vinyl-Covered Foam Blocks,\nInv. No. 337-TA-178. I recommend that you take no action with\nrespect to the exclusion order, thereby allowing the order to go\ninto effect.\nOn October 25, 1984, pursuant to section 337 of the Tariff Act of\n1930, the ITC transmitted an exclusion order prohibiting the\nimportation of certain vinyl-covered foam blocks. The ITC issued\nthe order after determining that imported foam blocks\nmanufactured by a company from Hong Kong infringe a U.S. patent\nowned by The Dolly Toy Co. of Tipp City, Ohio.\nUnder section 337(g), an ITC order must be transmitted to you for\na 60-day period of Presidential review. You may disapprove an\norder for policy reasons, including the impact of the order on\nthe public health and welfare, competitive conditions in the U.S.\neconomy, the production of like or directly competitive items in\nthe U.S., and U.S. consumers. If you disapprove an exclusion\norder, the ITC's order is without force and effect. You may also\nexpressly approve an order, rendering the order final and subject\nto judicial review on appeal. Absent Presidential approval or\ndisapproval, the order goes into effect on the day following the\n60-day review period.\nI recommend that you take no action with respect to the Foam\nBlocks exclusion order, thereby permitting the order to go into\neffect. The members of the Trade Policy Committee (the Office of\nthe United States Trade Representative, the Council of Economic\nAdvisers, and the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Defense,\nEnergy, Interior, Justice, Labor, State, Transportation, and\nTreasury) are in unanimous agreement with this recommendation.\nIn reviewing the exclusion order, the Trade Policy Staff\nCommittee found no policy concerns sufficient to justify\nPresidential disapproval. The foam blocks in question are a\nsqueezable children's toy. There is no claim that foam blocks\nare vital to the public health and welfare. Competition between\nthe patented foam blocks, other types of block toys, and other\ntoys ensures a wide array of consumer choice and vigorous\ncompetition in the U.S. market. No representations have been\nreceived from any foreign government and there is no evidence\nthat the order will have an adverse effect on our relations with\nother nations. Accordingly, I recommend that the order be\npermitted to go into effect.\nOPTIONS\nPRESIDENTIAL ACTION REQUIRED\nOption 1 (Recommended)\nTake no action. The order will\ngo into effect automatically on\nDecember 25, 1984.\nOption 2\nDisapprove the order by\ndelivering notice to the ITC by\nDecember 24, 1984. This will\nrender the order without force\nand effect.\nOption 3\nApprove the order. Inform the\nITC of your approval by\nDecember 24, 1984. The order\nwill then be subject to\njudicial review on appeal.\nRECOMMENDATION\nOption 1: Take no action\nApprove\nDisapprove\nDiscuss with me\nTHE WHITE HOUSE\nWASHINGTON\nDecember 28, 1984\nMEMORANDUM FOR ROGER CLEGG\nASSOCIATE DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL\nU.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE\nFROM:\nJOHN G.

Jones of\nWhite House Mails has been referred to this office for\nconsideration and response. In that letter you noted that\nyou had, some time ago, sent the President a letter re-\nquesting him to autograph ten enclosed two-dollar bills.\nA review of White House files indicates that a reply was\nsent to you on January 26, 1984, over the signature of Anne\nHiggins, Director of Correspondence. Your money was en-\nclosed with the reply, which explained that it was White\nHouse policy not to autograph currency. I am enclosing a\ncopy of the reply.\nYou will note that the reply contains your correct name,\nstreet address, and zip code, but the town name is rendered\n\"Harhill\" instead of \"Haverhill.\" The town name in your\nhand-written incoming letter (copy enclosed) does appear to\nbe \"Harhill\" rather than \"Haverhill,\" which may explain the\ndiscrepancy.\nSincerely,\nJohrsobert\nJohn G.
