PRESIDENTIAL REMARKS: START DELEGATION SEND-OFF
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1983
Ladies and gentlemen, later today, Ambassador Ed Rowny and
the other members of the START delegation will depart for Geneva
for the opening of the fifth round of the Strategic Arms
Reductions Talks. They will carry with them a new set of
instructions.
From the first day of these negotiations, our highest goal
has been to achieve a stable balance at reduced levels of nuclear
arsenals. We want to reduce the weapons of war, pure and simple.
All our efforts have been and continue to be guided by that
objective. In my address to the United Nations 2 weeks ago, I
pledged that the United States will accept any equitable,
verifiable agreement that stabilizes forces at lower levels than
currently exist. We want significant reductions and that pledge
stands.
In the last round of negotiations, we proposed a number of
new initiatives which were in harmony with the recommendations of
the Presidential Commission on Strategic Forces, and which
provided additional flexibility to our negotiators. Those
initiatives supported our basic goals and they also responded to
a number of Soviet concerns. I deeply regret that the Soviet
Union has yet to give any significant response.
Throughout the negotiating process, it is the United States
who has had to push, pull, probe and prod in the effort to
achieve any progress. The deepest desire shared by people
Page 2
everywhere -- for an historic agreement dramatically reducing
nuclear weapons -- could, and indeed, will be achieved, provided
one condition changes: The Soviet Government must stop
stonewalling and start negotiating in good faith.
Let me emphasize: We have removed the dividing line between
the two phases of our original proposal. Everything is on the
table. We are still most concerned about limits on the
fast-flying, most dangerous systems. But we are also prepared to
negotiate limits on the more stabilizing slow-flying and second
strike weapons.
We have proposed bomber and air launched cruise missile
limits below SALT II levels. We have shown great flexibility in
dealing with the destructive capability of ballistic missiles,
including their throwweight. We have also relaxed our limits on
the number of ballistic missiles. We have gone a very, long way
to address Soviet concerns. But the Soviets have yet to take
their first meaningful step to address ours.
Particularly in the INF talks, but also in START, they have
been stonewalling our proposals. When we proposed confidence
building measures that could be agreed to right now, they said,
wait. Apparently they believe that time is on their side, that
they can exploit one democracy against another, and that their
uncompromising attitude and delay will ultimately win out. Well,
they are making a big mistake. The diversity of our democracies
is a source of true strength, not weakness. From free discussion
among free people comes unity and commitment. The sooner this is
Page 3
understood, the sooner we will reach an agreement in the
interests of both sides.
We will continue to press Moscow for an equitable, fair, and
verifiable agreement. During the past few months, my
Administration has made a detailed review of the negotiating
positions presented thus far by both sides. We have consulted
with many members of the Congress and again with the Commission
headed by Brent Scowcroft. Their counsel has been invaluable. I
want to thank them for their tireless efforts and helpful advice.
When the START negotiations resume tomorrow, the United
States delegation will again have substantial flexibility.
Within the framework of the basic principles that have guided us
throughout these negotiations, I am directing Ambassador Rowny to
offer the following new initiative.
We are incorporating into START a series of build-down
proposals. The United States will introduce a proposal for a
mutual, guaranteed build-down designed to encourage stabilizing
systems. The proposal will include specific provisions for
building down ballistic missile warheads, and concurrently, for
addressing a parallel build-down on bombers. To discuss this
major new initiative, we will also propose the establishment of a
U.S.-Soviet "build-down" working group in the Geneva talks. On
another front, and in our effort, again, to be absolutely as
flexible as possible, we will be willing to explore ways to
further limit the size and capability of air-launched cruise
missile forces, in the context of reciprocal Soviet flexibility
on items of concern to us.
Page 4
We seek limits on the destructive capability of missiles and
recognize that the Soviet Union would seek limits on bombers in
exchange. There will have to be trade-offs and the United States
is prepared to make- them, so long as they result in a more stable
balance of forces.
The Soviet Union should not doubt the bipartisan support for
our efforts. During our review process, I looked for ways to
broaden America's bipartisan approach to our overall arms control
effort. A solid, national bipartisan consensus, sustained from
year to year and from administration to administration, is
crucial if we are to keep America safe, secure, and if we are to
achieve successful arms reductions. Therefore, I have decided to
take a number of new steps. Among these are to designate a
member of the Scowcroft Commission, James Woolsey, as a
member-at-large to our START negotiations.
These actions reflect America's democratic process at its
best. Ambassador Rowny, as you and your team depart for Geneva,
you go with the certain knowledge that you are negotiating with
the full support of the American people. Our bipartisan support
is stronger than ever before. And you carry with you fair,
equitable proposals, proposals that are in the interest of both
nations and all humankind.
It is fitting today to repeat what I said 2 weeks ago: The
door to an agreement is open. All the world is waiting for the
Soviet Union to walk through. Should the Soviet leadership
decide to join us now in our good faith effort, the fifth round
of these negotiations will be the one in which, finally, a
Page 5
breakthrough was made, and finally the world began to breathe a
bit easier.
To the entire START Delegation, Godspeed and good luck.

PRESIDENTIAL TALKING POINTS: MEETING WITH REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
AMERICAN BUSINESS CONFERENCE
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1983
-- My greetings to you and a special hello to your chairman,
Arthur Levitt, and your president, Jack Albertine. Let me just
express to all of you my sincere appreciation for the support the
American Business Conference has given to us on so many of our
economic initiatives. And thank you for the energy and muscle
you put behind passage of those programs.
-- I was especially glad to have your vote of confidence
last September 30. It was in the middle of the recession and
Arthur Levitt visited me on behalf of your members. He assured
me that the media and the economists were wrong and that we
would, indeed, have a strong economic recovery.
-- I feel a special kinship with you because your group was
formed in January 1981, a date I'll always remember.
-- I know ABC shares our vision for America. The very
diversity of your companies proves bold entrepreneurs can succeed
in almost any industry.
-- I share your concern about Federal deficits. We've got
to reduce the deficit more. But we're convinced the way to do
that is by making the Congress keep spending down, not letting
them increase taxes.
---- I know many of you have supported us on other key issues:
strategic modernization and arms control to cite two examples.
Let me just say again how much I appreciate your efforts and your
personal commitment and dedication to the preservation of our
freedom and national security.

MEETING WITH ENERGY SECRETARY DONALD P. HODEL (HOE-DELL')
DATE:
Tuesday, October 4
LOCATION: Oval Office
TIME:
2:30 P.M.
FROM:
Jack
Svahn AmhM
I. PURPOSE
Photo opportunity on the transmission of the fourth National
Energy Policy Plan.
II. BACKGROUND
Congress has required the President to submit every two
years a document outlining the National Energy Policy of the
Unites States. This document was primarily prepared by the
Department of Energy, and represents Energy Secretary
Hodel's first participation in the preparation of this
document. Earlier versions were submitted in 1977, '79, and
1981.
III. PARTICIPANTS
The President,
Energy Secretary Hodel,
Assistant to the President Jack Svahn,
Special Assistant to the President Danny Boggs.
IV. PRESS PLAN
Photo opportunity only.
V.
SEQUENCE OF EVENTS
Suggested: Hodel and others enter. Presents President with
copy for signature of transmittal letter. President signs.
They shake hands and chat briefly. Party departs. Hodel
goes to White House Press Room for briefing.
SUGGESTED TALKING POINTS
-- This document details the improvements made in our
energy situation over the past three years.
- - It presents our national energy goal as having an
adequate supply of energy at a reasonable price.
---- It provides two major policies to this end.
I. Minimizing government interference in energy, except for
necessary health, safety and environmental regulation.
II. Promoting a mixed and balanced system of energy supply and
use, including fossil fuels, conservation, nuclear power and
renewable energy sources.
KEY FACTS:
-
Energy situation much improved.
-
Real gasoline prices down about 15% since oil decontrol.
Real price of imported oil down nearly 40%.
-
U.S. now imports only a little over 1/4 of oil
consumption. OPEC dependence much reduced.
-
SPR has tripled since 1980. Now has 90 days supply of
net imports, well over 1 year of Arab OPEC imports.
-
Oil production has held steady despite projections of
continued fall.
-
In 1982, U.S. produced 90% as much energy as we
consumed.
KEY POLICIES:
-
Oil decontrol worked.
-
Market-based efficiency gains have continued strong.
-
Natural gas decontrol would help greatly. Potential gas
production that isn't being used because of regulation
is the equivalent of nearly half of our oil imports.

CABINET COUNCIL ON COMMERCE AND TRADE
DATE:
October 4, 1983
LOCATION:
Cabinet Room
TIME:
3:30-4:15
FROM:
Craig L. Fuller
I.
PURPOSE
To determine what position the Administration should take
with respect to pending telephone rate legislation.
II. BACKGROUND
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in December,
1982, issued its Access Charge decision. This decision
alters the traditional cost allocation and cost-recovery
systems used by the telephone industry. The industry has
traditionally used a rate-making system that resulted in
substantial cross-subsidies, the largest of which flows
from interstate toll service to intrastate, local service.
In order to facilitate more cost-based pricing, the FCC's
decision calls for costs of about $11 billion to be shifted
to end-users. This ruling generally promotes fuller and
fairer competition in the long-distance market. It also
ensures that large toll users (mainly large corporations)
will not "by-pass" local and other telephone facilities that
are overpriced as a result of traditional cross-subsidy
practices.
A number of bills pending in Congress are aimed at rolling
back elements of the FCC's ruling. The Administration must
determine what position it will take on such bills or
whether to propose its own bill.
The Cabinet Council on Commerce and Trade deliberated this
issue at 3:00 P.M. on October 3. It's recommendation and
the alternatives that you might consider are contained in a
briefing paper which is being revised. This paper will be
distributed on the morning of October 4.

PRESIDENTIAL TAPING: BBC DOCUMENTARY FILM TRIBUTE TO
JOHN WAYNE
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1983
To many people throughout the world, John Wayne was more
than a man; he was the personification of an American ideal. He
portrayed heroic individuals who were willing to take a stand,
men with courage and conviction. He represented the type of
person most Americans deeply admire, the kind of person whose
character withstood the perils of the frontier and the savagery
of war. We would like to think that he reflected the kind of
individual to whom we owe our freedom.
I was privileged to know John Wayne, both as a professional
and a friend. By the time I met him he was already a superstar,
yet he was never too busy to lend a helping hand and to get
involved. He was active with me during some turbulent years in
the Screen Actors Guild and I learned quickly that strength of
conviction was part of his personality off camera as well as on.
When I left the film business for a new career in politics,
the Duke, as we all knew him, was very supportive. He remained a
close friend to Nancy and me over the years. He was always
willing to do his part to support those in the political world
who he believed would strengthen America; and for a professional
actor his involvement took a certain degree of courage.
But, John Wayne's greatest contribution to America, and thus
to the world, was providing a self-image to Americans that
challenged us to live up to what we professed to be. The sweat
and heroism of ordinary people, people little different from us
Page 2
today, built a wilderness into a land of liberty and material
abundance. John Wayne reassured Americans that they were a
living part of that heritage
and that just as our
forefathers and mothers built a great country, we too are capable
of meeting the challenges we face as a free people.
This is the message of John Wayne.

PRESIDENTIAL TAPING: TUNE IN AWARDS DINNER
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1983
Good evening to all of you at the Tune-In Dinner in New
York. I'd like to take a moment and share with you some thoughts
on the great American tradition of voluntarism. Ever since
America was founded, we've been a Nation of volunteers. The
spirit that moved Betsy Ross to create the original Stars and
Stripes has been woven into our national fabric. From the
candy-striper working at the hospital to the Salvation Army
captain, the spirit of helping others spans the spectrum of
American life. Voluntarism ties us to the values and traditions
that made a good and caring people. It is a reminder that this
country was built by people working together.
In 1981, when I called for a renewed volunteer effort in
America, Jane Pickens Hoving answered that call by founding
Tune-In New York. Her idea of using the telephone to put people
in touch with those who needed them created a powerful force,
which has placed volunteers in over 5,000 non-profit
organizations in the New York area. Jane, that is quite an
accomplishment, and I speak for so many when I say thank you.
To Thornton Bradshaw, Leonard Goldenson, John Kluge and Tom
Wyman, gentlemen, let me say your contributions to voluntarism
speak well for both yourselves and your organizations.
Voluntarism grows when it is communicated, and I commend your
example of leadership. All of you there tonight are helping the
volunteer cause as well by supporting this dinner. I personally

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1983
It's a great pleasure to visit with you today as you begin
your annual meeting. I'm just sorry I have to speak through this
little red light, rather than see you all in person.
You can be mighty proud of what you do. You're a key part
of the profession that made America breadbasket for the world.
By feeding himself and 77 other people, the American farmer has
become a miracle of productivity.
We know what a tough a year this has been for our farmers
starting with the largest grain surpluses in history, then that
devastating drought that ruined so many of their crops. I assure
you we're doing everything we can to provide assistance. We're
also mounting an aggressive export drive to re-establish
America's credibility as a reliable supplier.
I want to compliment you on the extension programs you've
made such a success. They're practical, effective and a model of
true partnership between Federal, state and local Governments. I
understand your grassroots effort reaches every county in
America, with over a million and a half volunteers participating.
Just as important is the development of your volunteers into
community leaders. Working with the young producers and business
people, you help strengthen families, build better communities
and create stronger growth in our economy. What greater
contribution could people make to their country?
Thank you again for your fine work, and best wishes for
continuing success in all your Extension programs.
God bless you all.

PRESIDENTIAL TAPING: MESSAGE FOR THEODORE ROOSEVELT
125TH ANNIVERSARY DINNER
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1983
Good evening to all of you at the Theodore Roosevelt 125th
Anniversary Dinner. The American Museum of Natural History is a
fitting place for you to gather, we all know of President
Roosevelt and his father's interest in this institution.
Last year, the Theodore Roosevelt Association made it
possible for Theodore Roosevelt's Nobel Peace Prize, which he was
awarded for his role in mediating the end of the Russo-Japanese
War, to be displayed in the Roosevelt Room of the White House.
On behalf of the Nation, I was very proud to accept.
I wish each of you could see what an inspiring effect the
medal has on that room. A small spotlight illuminates the gold
medal which seems to float above the fireplace at the end of the
room. The medal is as exquisite as peace itself. I think
President Roosevelt would be happy to know how much his award
honors the White House, no matter who sits in the Oval Office.
And I think that medal, displayed as prominently and beautifully
as it is, will serve as a reminder and a goal to every president
in our future.
Theodore Roosevelt, in my mind at least, is unmatched in
terms of his range of interest and talents. President Roosevelt
was an explorer, awhistorian, an author, a reformer, an
outdoorsman, a soldier, a peacemaker, a naturalist, a public
servant. He was a New World Renaissance man. And he personified
the spirit of America.

PRESIDENTIAL TAPING: AMERICAN MEAT INSTITUTE DINNER
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1983
Good morning. I'm delighted to join your chairman, John
Copeland and your president, Manly Molpus, in welcoming all of
you to the 78th annual meeting of the American Meat Institute.
As the largest and oldest trade association for meat packers and
processors, A.M.I. has a proud record of service to the meat
industry and the Nation.
We're honored to have your former president, Dick Lyng,
serving as a key member of our team at the Department of
Agriculture. And I want to thank you for so generously donating
meat to the International Economic Summit last May in
Williamsburg -- a fine example of the voluntarism we're trying to
encourage. Many of the foreigners at the summit wondered just
what makes the American people so healthy and robust. Well, with
your products there, they found the answer at the dining room
table.
From our first days in office, A.M.I. has given our
Administration invaluable advice and support. On new approaches
to food safety and improved meat inspection procedures, we've
worked side-by-side. Soon the Congress will send me the Product
Tampering Act of 1983 -- legislation designed to shield producers
from false claims of tampering and help make certain that goods
reach the consumer intact. On this important legislation,
A.M.I.'s backing has been crucial.
Page 2
You've backed us just as firmly on our work to cut the
tangle of needless Federal regulations. I'm happy to say that
Vice President Bush's Task Force on Regulatory Relief was able to
act on many of the recommendations you provided to streamline the
regulation of your industry. And you'll be glad to hear that,
without damaging the environment, safety in the workplace, or
other legitimate regulatory goals, the Task Force has reduced the
growth of new Federal regulations by almost one-third. In fact,
if you laid end-to-end all the pages of regulations we've kept
out of copies of the Federal Register printed since we took
office, they'd reach all the way to the Moon.
A.M.I. has also given us unstinting support on the free
entry of American products into foreign markets. Your export
committee has proven indispensable as our U.S. Trade
Representative, Bill Brock, has labored to lower non-tariff trade
barriers in Europe and Japan.
Most important of all, A.M.I. has been right behind us as
we've worked to improve our own economy.
In those early days, we were beset by big spenders and
naysayers on all sides. I remember that A.M.I. was one of the
first groups to come forward to support our programs. I give you
my heartfelt thanks.
With your help, we've made a new beginning, cutting the
growth of Federal spending, pruning needless regulations as I
said, lowering personal tax rates, and dramatically reducing the
record inflation and interest rates we inherited.
Page 3
As you participate in the events of your annual meeting, I
want you to know that we'll be at work in Washington to keep this
recovery on track, which will help increase the demand for meat
and meat products. I'm certain that with your continued support
