MONDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1975
PEARL BAILEY, one of America's best loved entertainers,
was raised in Washington, D.C. where her father was a
minister. Following in the footsteps of her brother Bill,
who was famous for his tap-dancing, she began her own
entertainment career in 1933 as a singer with various pop-
ular bands.
Miss Bailey was with the first USO troupe during World
War II, and subsequently has entertained service men and
women stationed around the world. She was presented the
USO Woman of the Year Award in 1969.
Pearl Bailey made her stage debut in St. Louis oman in
1946. She then went on to star in a number of motion pic-
tures including Carmen Jones, Porgy and Bess, and That
Certain Feeling. However, of all her stage and screen roles,
Miss Bailey is probably best known for Hello Dolly, the
Broadway hit for which she won a special Tony Award. Fol-
lowing this stage triumph, she won Cue magazine's Enter-
tainer of the Year Award (1968).
In addition to being a much sought-after theater and night-
club performer, Miss Bailey is a highly successful recording
artist and a popular guest on various television programs.
She is also the author of four books, including her autobi-
ography, Raw Pearl.
Pearl Bailey's career as a performer and goodwill ambassador
for America has gained her the affection of people all over
the world. This esteem has been symbolized by the presenta-
tion of significant awards and honors including the First
Order of Arts and Science of Egypt, given her by President
Sadat, and the Myshallah, bestowed upon her on the same
occasion by Mrs. Sadat.

Mrs. Gerald Ford
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Betty:
There is no way for me to thank you enough for the
wonderful evening you and the President gave my son
and me. It was special in so many ways: a grand
celebration for my birthday; Jamie's first dinner
in the White House; the opportunity to share what-
ever knowledge I have about rehabilitation of the
handicapped with Madam Sadat; and an opportunity to
renew our acquaintance, which began June 24, 1956,
when I had dinner with you and your husband, the
Congressman, and other fun people, including Senator
Potter, Pat Hillings, Walter Norblad and our mutual
good friend, Don Jackson.
I thank you with all my heart, and if there is ever
any way I can be of service to you, please don't
hesitate to call on me.
Warmest regards,
name

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
SUBJECT: Official Gift Exchange during the Visit of
His Excellency the President of the Arab Republic
of Egypt and Mrs. Sadat, October 27, 1975
We have been informed that President Sadat will
be presenting the "Collar of the Nile" to you during
his upcoming visit. This decoration was established
in 1915 as a reward to individuals, native or foreign,
civil or military, for services to the welfare of Egypt.
Inscribed in Arabic on the five pointed white enamel
star is "What Benefits Egypt Owes To The Nile, Her Source
Of Prosperity and Happiness". The President may also
present a personal gift to you.
The President and Mrs. Sadat are planning to present
the "Order of El Kemal" to Mrs. Ford. This award is
given to ladies, native or foreign, who have contributed
to the advancement of Egypt. Inscribed on the star are
the words, "Charity, Duty, Devotion, Nobility and
Fity".
I would like to suggest that you present to the
President and Mrs. Sadat a Kodak Super 8 Sound Recording
Movie Camera, Sound Projector and a 40" X 40" screen.
We have been advised that the President and Mrs. Sadat
would enjoy this gift. The camera equipment is being
donated by Kodak for your use. Also, I would suggest
that Mrs. Ford present a Frankie Welch scarf to
Mrs. Sadat.
In addition to the camera equipment, I suggest that
you present to the President and Mrs. Sadat a color
photograph, in a silver Presidential frame, taken during
the arrival ceremony. The following is a suggested

PRELIMINARY RESEARCH ON THE SADAT STATE DINNER
9/26/75 p.m.
Talked with Mr. Matthews, State Department Egyptian Desk, on 632-2365.
Explained to him that we'd like to get started on background information for
the Sadat State Dinner, especially in the field of entertainment. Mentioned
that we understood from NSC that Sadat did not have any XXXXX particular
likes or dislikes (no penchants towards ballet, folk music, classical instrum-
entalists, etc. ).
Mr. Matthews understands that also. He felt that this information probably
came from Arthur Houghton (of the NSC staff ??) who in the past was in our
American Embassy in Cairo and got to know Sadat's tastes fairly well.
The only notable point that Mr. Matthews wished to make was that for relaxation,
XdaX Sadat loves to see Westerns. Also, in his past he used to be an avid
reader of Zane Grey novels, and he spent most of his time in concentration
camps in Egypt in World War II reading these books. Mr. Matthews hasn't
any idea how we would work this into our choice of entertainment, but it might
be interesting to keep in mind.
Mr. Matthews understands that Sadat is "simple folk", and thus thinks that we'd
do best to lean towards light entertainment rather than something heavy.
This fits in well with our chronology of WH entertainment, in that Roberta
Peters and Van Cliburn are more on the Classical, serious side of the
performing arts, and we'd be able to have a contrast with the lighter side.
IN GENERAL, TO KEEP IN MIND:
When Ford and Sadat met in Salzburg, there was apparently a meeting of
the personalities; each instinctively admired and respected the other as a
person. Thus, the State Department and others concerned will attempt to
further this first good impression. Consequently, it is understood that this
dinner is to be on the light, less formal side; the flavor will be not highly formal.
Also, the dinner will not be Black Tie. The Egyptians do not like Black Tie,
and they have asked that the dress be business suit. Black Tie affairs are non-
existent in Egypt and many Egyptians do not own tuxedos.
(Confirm with NSC.)
According to directives from Kissinger, this will not be a routine State visit.
"Anything the Egyptians want, they will get. "

Office of the Press Secretary to Mrs. Ford
Pearl Bailey will entertain tonight at the State Dinner honoring
Egyptian President and Mrs. Anwar Sadat.
Miss Bailey has been a guest twice before during the Ford
Administration ( February 20, 1975, The Governor's Dinner;
and May 15, 1975, the State Dinner honoring the Shah and Empress
of Iran), but has not previously been the entertainment.
She entertained twice during the Nixon Administration, and was
a guest during the Johnson Administration (President Johnson
came to see her perform in "Hello, Dolly."). Miss Bailey also
sang at the inauguration of President Eisenhower.
Miss Bailey was a guest of the Egyptian government in June, 1974,
and performed during her stay twice at the Sphinx Theatre in
Cairo. President Sadat presented her with the First Order of
Arts and Science.
Miss Bailey will perform with a three piece combo, whose members

October 27 at 8:00 PM. At the request of the Egyptian government, dress for
the dinner will be business suit.
Country-Western singer Johnny Cash will entertain.
Mrs. Ford has chosen a western theme for the decor of the State floor. President
al-Sadat's deep appreciation of America's Old West as portrayed in the
novels of Zane Grey prompted the First Lady's choice.
Tables will be draped in a bright Indian print and centerpieces will be bronzes by
noted American painter-sculptors Frederic Remington and Charles Russell. Floral
touches will be provided by dried grasses and American wild flowers.
The State Dining Room will have round tables, each draped with a polished-cotton
print square ("Navajo" design donated by Cohama Fabric) of bright yellows, flame

These include: "Bronco Buster" from the Oval Office, "Bronze Head of Indian"
from the Department of State, and "Bronco Twister" from the Amon Carter
Museum of Western Art in Fort Worth, Texas. The Amon Carter Museum is
lending the White House their world renown collection of Remington and Russell
bronzes for this occasion. There will also be additional pieces of the famous
sculptures from the White House and State Department.
Small American hobnail candle holders filled with 2 1/2" candles will be around
the base of each bronze, lighting the sculptures from underneath. The bronze
centerpieces will be surrounded by dried grasses and American wild flowers.
Dried statice will be used in the chandeliers and on the mantels. Remingtons will
also be used on each of the pier tables in the Cross Hall and on the pedestals (a
total of four). Sweetgum trees will line the Grand Hall and Cross Hall, with accents
provided by yellow chrysanthemums.
Betty Sherrill and John Drews of McMillen, Inc. of New York are coordinating
the decorations. Roy Strickland of Bouquets a la Carte Inc. of New York will
coordinate floral designs.

FOR RELEASE UPON DELIVERY
OCTOBER 27, 1975
Office of the White House Press Secretary
THE WHITE HOUSE
TEXT OF TOAST BY THE PRESIDENT
AT THE STATE DINNER IN HONOR OF
PRESIDENT SADAT OF EGYPT
THE STATE DINING ROOM
Mr. President, Mrs. Sadat, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is a great honor to have
you with us this evening.
Although you have been to our country before, this is the first State Visit by an
Egyptian President to the United States. Your visit symbolizes the close working
relationship our two countries have achieved in the last two years.
We honor you tonight as a friend of the United States and for your commitment
to provide your people many of the same goals that Americans cherish. You are
committed to improving the conditions of life for all Egyptians and for the people
of the entire Arab world.
You have recognized that we must all work to overcome the tragedy of unfulfilled
lives--lives marked by disease, malnutrition, undereducation, underemployment,
and the devastation of war. Americans respect your vigorous pursuit of peace
and your efforts to devote your nation's energy and resources not to continued conflict
but to meeting the needs of your people.
We are committed to work with you toward such worthy goals. Failure to achieve
peace in the Middle East will affect the lives of Americans and the lives of our
friends in the Middle East and throughout the world. We share your belief
that nations can gain much by working together.
Your courage, Mr. President, in taking the first steps toward peace after almost
three decades of warfare, assures your place in the history of the Middle East.
You are the man who assumed the lead in ending a conflict that, for more than a
generation, absorbed the lives, the energies and the substance of many nations.
We have been proud to work with you in this noble cause. Jan
Mr. President, I know from my conversations with you in Salzburg, and from our
many other exchanges, that your dedication to peace is for all the people of the
Middle East. I say again tonight categorically that we share the view that the
process of making peace for all must continue.
No step we have taken can be an end VI itself. There can be no peace until the
legitimate interests of all the peoples of the Middle East are taken fairly into
account in a final peace settlement.
I wish to address a special word, Mr. President, to your charming wife. My
own
wife, Betty, is doing much to inform me about the rights and problems of women
in the new freedoms of modern society. So I am pleased to observe that Mrs. Sadat
has distinguished herself in your nation by her contributions both to the well-being
spenty
of all Egyptians and to a new consciousness of the status of women and efforts to
achieve equality of opportunity.
Ladies and gentlemen, I ask that you join me in a toast to the President of Egypt
and to our mutual objectives.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, PLEASE!
YES!
JOHNNY CASH IS COMING!
Yes, one of the most phenomenal entertainers in the world,
Johnny Cash and his entire country music show starring June Carter
Cash, Carl Perkins, the Carter Family, Gordon Terry, Tennessee
Three, Rosanne Cash and Rosey Nix is coming to the
Shady Grove Music Theatre in Rockville for eight performances
only November 17 - November 23.
Cash was advised recently by his personal physician to
rest from his exhustive schedule of concerts and television
appearances. He's doing just that right now and is tremendously
excited about entertaining his friends and fans in the
Maryland, Virginia and Washington Metropolitan areas beginning
Monday, November 17.
Cash is just about the biggest thing that has happened to
country music since its recorded beginning a half century ago.
During his eighteen-year career, Cash has grown to be the art's
most formidable purveyor and presents his product without
adornment.
The Cash Style and performance crosses virtually all social
boundaries. He fills the biggest arenas in America, the most
elegant theatres in Europe, racetracks in Australia, the "showrooms"
in Nevada and prison yards from San Quentin in California to
Stockholm, Sweden.
Old and young alike identify with him whether successful
or down trodden and Christians know him as brother. Johnny Cash
is a dynamic eagle figure, displaying truth and honesty and a
perceptive awareness of the human condition, good and bad.
FORD
Cash has amassed an amazing string of hits from "The
Gospel Road", "Sunday Morning Coming Down", "Man In Black"
"Folsom Prison Blues", "Walk The Line", "Ride This Train",
"Ring of Fire" to his newest album recording "Look At The Beans".

Office of the Press Secretary to Mrs. Ford
Country-Western singer Johnny Cash has been asked by the President and
Mrs. Ford to entertain at the State dinner honoring His Excellency the
President of the Arab Republic of Egypt and Mrs. Anwar al-Sadat Monday,
October 27.
Johnny Cash will be accompanied by his wife, June Carter, and five members
of his band.
Johnny Cash began singing in Memphis in 1955 and by the late 1960's had
become one of Columbia Record's four best-selling artists. Among his albums
are: "Ride this Train, 11 "Songs of the Real West, IT Bitter Tears, 11 "The Holy
Land, 11 "Johnny Ca sh at Folsom Prison, rr "Johnny Cash at San Quentin."
The latter two were recorded at performances he gave at those institutions.
Cash continues to make concerts and television appearances and appears in
motion pictures as well.
One of six children, Cash was born in 1932 in Kingsland, Arkansas. He grew
up on a 20-acre farm, hauled water for a road gang when he was 10 and helped
his family raise cotton through high school. He enlisted in the Air Force
following graduation, served in Germany, and returned to Memphis. He was
working there as a radio and TV appliance salesman when Sun Records agreed
to record his music. Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two (Marshall Grant
and Luther Perkins) released "Cry, Cry, Cry, 11 and "Hey, Porter" and the
Johnny Cash career was launched.
Cash performed at the White House once before in April 1973. He and his
wife, June Carter, have one son. He has four daughters from a previous
marriage.

JOHNNY CASH
The JOHNNY CASH phenomenon is the biggest thing that has happened
to country music since its recorded beginnings a half century ago.
During his eighteen year career, Johnny Cash has grown to be the art's
most formidable purveyor and presents his product without adornment.
The Cash Style and performance crosses social and racial boundaries.
He fills the biggest arenas in America, the most elegant theatres in
Europe, racetracks in Australia, the "show rooms" in Nevada and
prison yards from San Quentin in California to Stockhom, Sweden.
Old and young alike indentify with him whether successful or down trodden
and Christians know him as a brother. Johnny Cash is a dynamic eagle
figure, displaying truth and honesty and a perceptive awareness of the
human condition, good and bad.
These are impressive pinnacles of accomplishment for the son of
an Arkansas cotton farmer. Cash has come a long way through the
years, paying his dues as he went along. He was hauling water for
a road gang when he was ten, and pulling a nine foot cotton sack
when he was twelve. He worked hard with his family to raise a crop
of Arkansas cotton only to see the year's work washed away by the
raging Mississippi River Floods. Cash and his family suffered greatly
during the depression, as did most Americans.
By the time Cash finished high school, America was embroiled in
the Korean conflict. He enlisted in the Air Force, and was assigned
to Germany. Country music had always been an important part of
Cash's boyhood, and while in Germany, he bought his first guitar.
As a military cryptographer he was often alone. During these lonely
hours, he read history, practiced his guitar, and wrote songs. It
was during this period in Germany that Johnny wrote one of his most
important songs, "Folsom Prison Blues", the night he saw the film,
"Inside the Walls of Folsom Prisor". Cash recalled, "There wasn't
much romance to the writing of "Folsom Prison Blues". I saw the movie,
liked it, and wrote the song. That's all there was to that." The
song has since sold millions, and has served Cash well as a vocal
signature.

MOTION PICTURE - THEATRICAL AND CONCERT PRODUCTION
Long, lined, yellow legal pads are always within reach of Cash.
On these pads, he jots song ideas, often sentences, sometime just
a word or two. He records observations about things he sees, remembers,
about people with whom he speaks. He may mull an idea for a month,
or he may write the complete song in fifteen minutes.
When the young Cash retruned to the States from Germany, he got
married. He enrolled in radio school, hoping to become a country
music disc jockey, but soon found he preferred performing. He had
always wanted to sing and believed that his future lay in music.
He made several fruitless overtures to the Sun Recording Company
(then Memphis' only recording company), but his songs were too country
for the rock-oriented label. Finally, Sam Phillips of Sun Records
listened to him and agreed to record him. Cash and "The Tennessee Two",
Marshall Grant and Luther Perkins, got together for those first sessions,
and with the release of "Cry, Cry, Cry" and "Hey Porter" in June of 1955,
the Johnny Cash career was on its way.
Financial success was not long in coming for Johnny Cash. But
like his country predecessors, Jimmie Rodgers and Hank Williams,
Cash did not cope well with success. Cash is a shy and reticent man.
Even though his records were hits, he was soon using pills to bolster
his confidence and to keep him going double time. Within a short time,
he was caught up in an endless circle of amphetamines and barbituates.
He spent more time on the road than at home. His first marriage went
on the rocks, and he seemed destined for the same end.
By the mid-sixties, Cash was one of country music's superstars,
but the whole country music community was anticipating his demise.
They knew about his "no-shows", they knew about his psychosomatic
laryngitis, but they hadn't anticipated June Carter. June had been
a part of the Johnny Cash Show since the early sixties and she knew
he was worth saving. In 1968, June enlisted the help of Dr. Nat Winston,
the former head of the Tennessee Department for Mental Health, and
a country music authority. Dr. Winston saw Cash and agreed to undertake
a long withdrawl with him. Cash knew that he must get himself together
and cooperated, with successful and permanent results.
During that time, Johnny came back to the Christian faith in
which he was brought up, with a renewed dedication, and a few years
of added wisdom gleaned from the hard times. In November, 1971, John
and June took a film crew to Israel where he wrote and produced a
feature length film entitled "Gospel Road". This project was the end
result of the Cashs' dreams to tell the story of the life of Christ as
they envision it.]
FORD
LIBRARY
-3-
20th Century Fox distributed the film but most recently Billy Graham's
World Wide Pictures of Burbank, California, purchased "Gospel Road"
for distribution. It is the most successful film the Graham organization
has ever been associated with.
John's list of motion picture and TV credits is formidable.
He co-starred with Kirk Douglas in "A Gunfight" for Paramount Pictures
and has guested and hosted on all of the top variety TV shows and
played opposite Pete Falk in a top rated dramatic "Columbo" segment
in March of 1974. A recent ABC-TV special "Ridin the Rails", depicting
the history of the American railroad, was a landmark in the documentary
field for not only its historical but entertainment value.
Johnny Cash has recently been honored with a Doctorate of
Humanities degree from Gardner Webb College in North Carolina, the
dedication of The Retreat Mental Hospital in Decatur, Alabama, in
his name, and the Faith in Freedom Award by the Religious Heritage
of America, Inc.
Cash still performs ten to twelve prison shows per year, along
with his television and concert committments, while enjoying a lasting
relationship with Columbia Records. He has just finished writing a
book about his experiences and philosophy of life, as well as his
spiritual world; tentatively entitled "Man in Black", published in 1975
by Zondervan.
John purveys his philosophy thru his music to mass audiences
before the camera and from the stage, but he also purveys it on a
one-to-one basis. He maintains enormous correspondence and telephone
communication with individuals in every walk of life. Rather than
preach it, he strives every day to practice the faith he believes in.
Johnny Cash, the words he says and the songs he sings, are a
life style. Johnny Cash is as American as the songs the sings. He
has proven that any man can accomplish anything he makes up his mind
to do. By using his great personal strength and innate musical ability,
Johnny Cash has risen far above his dreams. He is happiest, and as
he says, "only completely alive" when he is performing, sharing with
his audience the songs he loves.
The past of Johnny Cash represents the toughest part of our
lives. The present and future of Johnny Cash represents the hopes
and goals of most of us.

Dear Sheila:
So nice talking with you today. Seems when-
ever I'm in town everyone is so busy that we never
have an opportunity to say hello.
Enclosed is the book cover of Mother and Child
by Mary Lawrence plus a copy of her letter to us.
Barbara and I have seen the book and it is beautiful.
We know Betty will share our thoughts on its warmth
and appropriateness.
Hope you can put together a meeting.
Please keep us posted on what happens. We've
told Mary Lawrence only that her request has been
sent on to the White House.
See you soon.
Sincerely,
I noited to Sadat dinner

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Parma:
I hope you will like my book. If you respond to it as
I do pray you will - I would be forever grateful if a
meeting could possibly be arranged at the White House
so I could present my book to our First Lady, Mrs. Ford,
who is so heart-warmingly a fine representative of my
"Mother And Child" theme - perhaps in company with the
Director of our National Gallery, Carter Brown, Helen Copley
and Mrs. Justin Dart at tea or a luncheon if her busy sched-
ule permits; I believe it would be a memorable and worth-
while newsworthy occasion.
I am enclosing the bookcover to acquaint President Ford
with the contents and scope of the book. I am scheduled
to make a book tour which will take me to Washington D.C.
on October 27,28 and 29 and I need not be back for my
lecture at our Fine Arts Gallery until November 3. My only
other intervening stop will be in Toronto before returning
home - however I am sure the publisher would alter my
schedule to suit the convenience of Mrs. Ford and her
White House schedule.
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to mention this
to our President if at all possible - and, of course, if
Mrs. Parma could speak to Mrs. Ford she might find her
responsive to my "Mother and Child" theme. In any event,
I would be deeply appreciative for any help you could give
me
Most sincerely,
mary Lawtmer

Mother and Child
Compiled by MARY LAWRENCE
Preface by HELEN HAYES
Directed and produced by Marshall Lee
Mother and Child is the world's first important collection of
art on this subject, with 100 stunning works richly printed in full
color-each with a comment by an outstanding person. Mary
Lawrence says in her Foreword: "Many of the commentaries
are by distinguished art historians, museum directors, and
curators-professionals who generally address themselves to
the work and the artist with a minimum of personal involve-
ment. However, a large number of the essays are based on the
commentator's personal interaction with the work, and these
have been written by a broad spectrum of interesting and
accomplished personalities whose relations to the works vary
as much as do their own backgrounds. Some of their
commentaries are deeply felt and moving, others veer to
lighthearted observation. All are interesting in their own way
and, most important, all reveal something about the nature of
art as it affects people."
Kenneth Clark, Peter Ustinov, Jean Renoir, Princess Grace,
Richard Rodgers, Sophia Loren, Anaïs Nin are among 106
fascinating writers who give their personal responses to both
familiar and newly-published masterpieces from virtually
every era-ancient to contemporary, and every culture-Asian,
African, pre-Columbian, Oceanic, Middle Eastern, European,
and American.
The eternal theme of mother-love binds together the strikingly
different works of Leonardo and Matisse, Picasso and a Persian
miniaturist, El Greco and a 6th-century Indian sculptor. As
Mary Lawrence puts it: "these hundred works together
project a view of motherhood that is one with love and loyalty,
sacrifice, tenderness, happiness. The mother-and-child image
is an emblem of humanity and spirit that we can look to as a
citadel against the forces that are tearing at our civilization.
Here we celebrate the continuity of lite-our fragile link to
immortality."
Mother and Child is a book you will greatly enjoy reading,
looking at, showing to others, and giving to people you
respect. It is a uniquely appropriate gift for new mothers or
any mother-and, of course, for Christmas, Hanukkah,
birthdays, weddings, or other occasions to honor someone
you care about. It is also the perfect house gift, a worthy
addition to any family's treasures.
MARYLAWRENCE
Mary Lawrence has lived in the same house since her marriage in
1938 to her husband, the film writer, director, and producer Delmer
Daves. She is mother of three, grandmother of three, and a woman
of many parts. According to her husband, the ancient Greeks may
have foreseen her special attributes when they created the word
entheos (to have the gods within you) which led to our word
enthusiasm. This brio has led her not only to the creation of this
book but to several careers-as an actress, appearing in many plays,
films, and television series; as an interior decorator and pho-
tographer; and into the study of terracotta sculpture, ceramics, and
painting. She grew up in Columbus, Ohio, and was educated at
Columbus School for Girls, Western College for Women, Oxford,
Ohio, and the University of California at Los Angeles. Mary
Lawrence brings her characteristic enthusiasm and energy to her
very extensive traveling and museum-going - activities leading to
other book projects in work.
