MEETING WITH REPRESENTATIVE BARBER CONABLE (R-N.Y.)
RANKING REPUBLICAN ON HOUSE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE
DATE:
Thursday, March 26, 1981
LOCATION: The Oval Office
TIME:
10:30 a.m. (20 minutes)
FROM:
MAX L. FRIEDERSDORF mit
I. PURPOSE
To discuss strategy on the President's tax reduction bill.
II. BACKGROUND
The President is seeking a three-year, 10 percent per year
personal income tax reduction. Rep. Dan Rostenkowski (R-Ill.),
Chairman of Ways and Means Committee, announced yesterday that
he "sees no chance" for the President's program, and urged the
President and Republicans to work with him on a compromise.
House Ways and Means Commiteee Republicans, outnumbered 23-12
on the Committee, have been wavering and talking of an early
vote on the President's program, which would be lost, then
working with the Democratic majority for an acceptable com-
promise. Conable needs to be reinforced about the President's
determination to seek a three-year bill, and enlisted to rally
the Republicans.

TALKING POINTS
SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS FOR MEETING WITH
Congressman Barber Conable (R-NY)
-Indicate your awareness of Danny Rostenkowski's statement
yesterday that he believes there is no chance of passing
the President's tax program. (See Attachment 1)
Stress your intention to pursue the three-year tax cut and
urge Conable, and his eleven fellow Republicans, on Ways
and Means, to support your tax cut proposals.
-Emphasize that the tax cuts are an integral part of your
total economic package. Budget reductions alone will not
turn the economy around. We have to offset the crushing
tax burden now imposed on the American people.
--Characterize Rostenkowski as being obstructionist by not
allowing the full House of Representatives to consider a
tax proposal that won the overwhelming mandate of the
American people-last November.
-Express your concern that Republicans may give up before the
battle is joined, and emphasize your determination to go to
the Nation if Ways and Means seeks to destroy your Economic
Recovery Program.
-Enlist Congressman Conable's support, and solicit his advice
on how to counter attack the Democrats, and strengthen the
resolve of Republicans.

PRESIDENT'S STATEMENT ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE
PRESIDENT'S COUNCIL ON INTEGRITY AND EFFICIENCY MARCH 26, 1981
TODAY, I AM ANNOUNCING TWO ACTIONS TO RESPOND TO THE DEMAND
OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOR HONESTY IN GOVERNMENT.
WHILE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES ARE
WORKING HONESTLY AND COMPETENTLY TO SERVE THEIR NATION, THERE
IS ALSO A VERY SMALL MINORITY OF DISHONEST -- AND SOME FRANKLY
INCOMPETENT -- INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE COSTING THE TAXPAYERS PERHAPS
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN FRAUD AND WASTE.
HANDWRITING FILE

THIS IS NOT MY MONEY; IT IS NOT THE CONGRESS'S MONEY -- IT
IS THE PEOPLE'S MONEY. OUR FAILURE TO STOP THIS FRAUD, WASTE
AND MISMANAGEMENT HAS LED TO GROWING PUBLIC CYNICISM ABOUT THE
ABILITY OF GOVERNMENT TO CONTROL ITSELF.
IT RAISES FUNDAMENTAL
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF GOVERNMENT.
MY FIRST ACTION IS THE ISSUANCE OF AN EXECUTIVE ORDER
ESTABLISHING THE PRESIDENT'S COUNCIL ON INTEGRITY AND EFFICIENCY.
THIS ACTION SIGNALS EVERYONE WHO WORKS FOR OR DOES BUSINESS WITH
THE GOVERNMENT THAT WE MEAN BUSINESS.

THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER I HAVE SIGNED BRINGS TOGETHER IN ONE
BODY THE INSPECTORS GENERAL OF THE VARIOUS AGENCIES OF
GOVERNMENT SO THAT THEY CAN FOCUS THEIR TOTAL EFFORTS IN THE
PLACES THAT WILL DO THE MOST GOOD THIS WILL ALSO INCLUDE
THE EFFORTS OF THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND ITS RESOURCES IN
THE FBI.
BRINGING TOGETHER THESE EFFORTS WILL PERMIT ALL AGENCIES
TO SHARE KNOWLEDGE OF FRAUDULENT AND WASTEFUL ACTIVITIES.
THEY
WILL EXCHANGE INFORMATION ON THE KINDS OF INVESTIGATIONS WHICH
WILL PROVIDE THE MOST PROMISING RESULTS. AND THEY WILL BE

I HAVE ASKED EDWIN HARPER, ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND
DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF THE OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET TO CHAIR
THE NEW COUNCIL MR. HARPER WILL BE REPORTING DIRECTLY TO ME, AND,
ED, I AM CONFIDENT THAT YOU WILL HAVE A LOT TO REPORT.
I AM ALSO ANNOUNCING THE APPOINTMENTS OF THE FIRST SIX OF THE
SIXTEEN INSPECTORS GENERAL THAT ARE AUTHORIZED BY LAW. WHEN I
EXERCISED MY PREROGATIVE AS A NEW PRESIDENT TO TERMINATE THE
APPOINTMENTS OF THE INCUMBENT INSPECTORS, I ANNOUNCED THAT WE
WOULD SEEK THE VERY BEST PEOPLE WE COULD FIND, INCLUDING THOSE WHO
PREVIOUSLY HELD THESE POSITIONS. FIVE OF THE SIX INDIVIDUALS I AM

ANNOUNCING TODAY WERE PREVIOUSLY SERVING AS INSPECTORS GENERAL, AND
I HOPE THIS PUTS TO REST SUSPICIONS THAT HAVE BEEN VOICED THAT
POLITICS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THESE APPOINTMENTS. WE SOUGHT THE
BEST PEOPLE AVAILABLE -- INDIVIDUALS WITH EXPERIENCE WHO HAVE
UNCOVERED CASES OF FRAUD AND WASTE IN GOVERNMENT AND HAVE SAVED OR
RECOVERED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
I AM ALSO PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THAT THE FBI HAS JUST CONCLUDED
A MAJOR INVESTIGATION IN NEW YORK RELATING TO FRAUD IN THE SUMMER
LUNCH PROGRAM. FBI DIRECTOR WILLIAM WEBSTER WILL BE HERE LATER
TODAY TO GIVE YOU A COMPLETE BRIEFING ON THIS MATTER.

WE WILL NOT REST WITH TODAY'S ANNOUNCEMENT. WE WILL NOT
SIMPLY TUCK THIS EVENT AWAY AND GO ON WITH BUSINESS AS USUAL,
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE DEMANDING ACTION, AND THEY ARE GOING
TO GET IT BELIEVE ME, WE ARE OUT TO GET CONTROL OF OUR LIVES --
AND WE ARE GOING TO FOLLOW EVERY LEAD, ROOT OUT EVERY INCOMPETENT,
AND PROSECUTE ANY CROOK WE FIND WHO'S CHEATING THE PEOPLE OF
THIS NATION. THIS I PROMISE.

MR. PRESIDENT:

Richard G. Darman
President's Statement on the Establishment of the
President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency
As some of you will no doubt recall, I spoke frequently during
the recent Presidential campaign about the problems of fraud and
wastein the Federal Government. Today we are taking severval
necessary first steps in doing something about it.
This is a matter of much greater importance than dollars. One
of the problems in this great country of ours is a measurable,
palpable growth of cynicism among our citizens, and particularly
cynicism about Government. Much of it has been entirely warranted.
When people know from their own experience of cheating, or even
just stupid and wasteful ways of doing things, why shouldn't they
become cynical? But cynicism is a dangerous disease: It is the
counterpart of loss of faith, of confidence in the institutions
of our society.
Neither I nor anyone else can eliminate Government waste and abuse
overnight. What I can do is to make every one of our Government
employees, those of our citizens who would try to cheattthe
Government, acutely conscious that I care, right here in the White
House, and that somebody is looking. Today I am signing an ex-
eutive order to bring together in one bodv the Inspectors General
of the various agencies of government and other high officials
directly concerned - including the Justice Department and the
FBI - SO that they can focus their efforts in the places that
will do the most good. They will share knowledge of what they
are finding out. They will tell one another of promising cor-
ners to look into. And they will be ready to pounce, with
criminal prosecution, where that is warranted.
The Chairman of the new President's Council on Integrity and
Efficiency will be Edwin Harper, the Deputy Director of the Office
of Management and Budget, who is also an Assistant to the President.
He will be reporting directly to me. And Ed, I am confident you
will have a lot to report.
I am also announcing today the appointments of the first six of
the sixteen Inspectors General that are authorized by law. At the
time I exercised my prerogative as a new President to terminate the
appointments of the incumbent Inspectors General, I announced that
we would seek out the very best people we could find, including those
who previously held these positions. Five of the six appointsments
I am announcing today were serving previously as Inspectors General,
and I hope this puts to rest suspicions that have been voiced that
politics has anything to do with these appointments. We sought the
best, and we found in these cases that the best were those who had
experience and were serving with great effectiveness. They have all
uncovered some very bad cases of fraud or abuse in government programs,
and have saved or recovered millions of dollars.
These two actions get us on the road. It is a serious and continuing
effort to go after the bad actors, the abuses that make people
troubled about their government.

TALKING POINTS FOR THE YOUNG REPUBLICAN RECEPTION
-- The Young Republicans National Federation has sent
representatives abroad throughout Europe, Africa and
Latin America. They have had interaction with most
conservative youth groups in the world by participating
in youth forums and through the exchange of literature,
information and the sponsorship of foreign youth
delegations in the United States.
-- Over the past two years, the YR's have raised over
$600,000 to provide campaign training schools, literature,
and direct candidate assistance to Republicans across the
country.
-- Of special interest is the fact that General George H.
Olmstead, the first Chairman of the YR's, was at the
1931 reception with Herbert Hoover and will be attending
this reception. He is now Chairman of the Board of the
International Bank.

BRIEF REMARKS - YOUNG REPUBLICAN NATIONAL FEDERATION
WHITE HOUSE RECEPTION
This is a very special moment for me, to see you here
in this room, in our national house. You belong here, and
you are welcome.
Almost 17 years ago, I spoke of our rendezvous with
destiny, and here we are. This Administration, the people
you have worked to elect to the Senate, to the House, and
to State and local offices, have the opportunity to put into
practice the ideals for which we have strived for decades.
We must not fail.
We have the opportunity to return Government to its
primary role of protecting the people, and to return to the
people the freedom and incentive to excel. We cannot waste
a moment for we have much to do.
To achieve our goals, we must pool our strengths, our
energies and our talents. I am confident we are equal to
the task. Together, we can answer that first call: to
preserve for our children and our children's children this
last, best hope of man on earth.
