Dear Dr. Kissinger:

Paulo Villares and Antonio Bias Bueno Guillon, director of the Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado (FAAP), have invited me to a meeting with you after your lecture at the FAAP on April 6. If you have no objection, we would like to publish an edited version of your lecture in *Braudel Papers*, our bi-monthly newspaper of research and opinion. I enclose copies of *Braudel Papers* with essays by internationally-known members of our Institute, such as Professors Jeffrey Sachs of Harvard University, William McNeill of the University of Chicago and Jean-Claude Chesnais of the Institute National d'Études Demographiques (Paris). You may be especially interested in the essays on Brazilian politics and society by Aspásia Camargo ("Federalism and Inflation") and Celso Martone ("The Brazilian Concept of Money.")

The Fernand Braudel Institute of World Economics is a non-profit institution associated with the Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado, formed in 1987 by a group of economists, businessmen, journalists and public officials in São Paulo, concerned about the cumulative impact of self-destructive policies that is causing some countries to fade out of the world economy. This concern led us to develop a program of research and public debate on the civilizational problem of chronic inflation, embracing issues of ethics, federalism, transfer economics, public health and mortality. Our Institute was named for Braudel because the French historian was a founder of the University of São Paulo in the 1930s and because his work celebrates the power of the market in centuries of human development.

I look forward to meeting you next month.

Union of American Hebrew Congregations

Private & Personal

Dear Rabbi Schindler,

This is a personal letter to you, not recommended by anybody that I should write it and written on my own initiative.

It is quite some time that we have heard from each other, but I have followed your activities in the States with great interest and I take the liberty of sending you some of my articles which give me a chance to share my opinion with you.

I have recently been in Bonn on an important mission relating to Israel-German cooperation and relationship. My visit was a success and I believe I had the privilege to add positive thinking to the so important Israel-German relationship of today and we here in Israel are even convinced that we have to strengthen this relationship to the good of our national future.

An important personality in Bonn from the academic circle, involved in government activities close to Chancellor Kohl, approached me for a private meeting.

The German Government sees with great concern a certain dangerous negative attitude within American Jewish leadership towards Germany as a whole and this is always connected with the horrible holocaust crime, which is so much burning in the soul of every Jew in the diaspora and in Israel. In Germany they are very much aware of this collective attitude of American Jewish leaders and Jewish citizens towards Germany which has developed almost into kind of a collective hatred against Germany of today. This refers not only to the past, but also to the present leadership and the German people. They do not want, maybe they cannot, distinguish between the holocaust crime done by the German people during the rule of the Nazi leaders in Germany and the Federal Republic of Germany of today - democratic and liberal. They may have a feeling that millions of Jews who were murdered by the Nazis are not less the guilt and responsibility of the present German generation and Government. They do not believe in David Ben-Gurion's words which he mentioned to Konrad Adenauer at the Waldorf Astoria in New York in 1960 when both leaders met for the first time - "We the Jews do not believe that the children are guilty for their parents' sins". Konrad Adenauer answered him - "Those are great words of truth spoken by a Jewish leader in our times".

- 2 -

The German Government of today is a very positive partner in
many activities to the benefit of the state of Israel. They
assist us and understand us. All of us believe that the
holocaust is a heavy guilt on the conscience of the present
German government and they are ready to do everything to
prove it to us and to the world.

We in Israel, the Jewish people, have founded a national home
(Patria), became a nation and probably face different
problems and motions from those of the Jews of the diaspora
like the U.S. They are very good and conscious Jews, devoted
to the Jewish people, but may react differently from us as a
nation.

We, like all Jews, are still conscious of the 9th of Av, the destruction of the second tempel two thousand years ago, but our remembering and our action are different. As a nation we carry the burden of history, which was so often very painful for the Jews, but we never turned to hatred. The ten commandments were and are the basis for our existence and spiritual life.

The exile of Spanish Jewry in 1492-95 is still today a tragic
happening living in our hearts, but we have no hate towards
the Catholic Church. We cannot understand those tragic
events and they do live with us, but we still live in a
positive way because we are a people and a state, proud of
our nationality to be Israelis, a nation amongst nations.
There is no greater tragedy in Jewish history than the
holocaust. It is the great historic task of the Jewish state
and of the people of Israel to strengthen the Jewish people
everywhere and live in the international family of nations,
among them Germany.

We cannot take it indifferently that the German Government
sees in American Jewish leadership an oponent whose feelings
and thinking are only and solely influenced by the horrible
holocaust which cost the life of millions of Jews and wanted
to destroy the Jewish people as a whole.

I believe that there is a different Germany of today
represented by a government of liberal and responsible
thinking and acting people. They have proven to Israel
political assistance in strengthening our defence and
economy, but they cannot wipe out the horrible past.
We Jews have to live with this horrible past as a fact in our
national life like the 9th of Av.

I was asked to explain to American Jewish leaders that they
should try to be aware that the present German Government is
democratic, liberal but responsible for the past.

- 3 -

We need the Germany of today to the benefit of Israel, and
Germany of today is helping us wherever they can and will do
so in the days to come. They are very much concerned with
the ugly face of anti-semitism and neo-Nazis which is showing
its ugly face in the German street and they fight against it.

What I would suggest, Rabbi Schindler, is that you call on a
confernce of responsible Jewish leaders to be held in
Jerusalem, at the Hebrew University which will give the
meeting an atmosphere of spiritual wisdom and political
maturity. I will ask Professor Kaiser to contact Chancellor
Kohl's office to send a special delegation of German leaders
for a historic dialogue between American Jewry, Israelis and
German leadership in Jerusalem. I can see in this idea a
historic suggestion as Jews in our history sometimes held
dialogues with non-Jews like Moses Mendelssohn with John
Caspar Lavater. It is good to remember what Lavater
dedicated to Mendelssohn calling upon him "to do what wisdom,
love of truth and honor require, and what Socrates would have
done had he read the treatise and found it irrefutable".

I know it is important for Germans to see the change of
attitude of the American Jewry towards Germany and this is
important, but history will prove that the State of Israel
will always throw its weight in the human and political scene
and all this will make Bonn see that the Jewish people of our
days have not forgotten the past, but believe in the positive
and responsible future between our two people - Germans and
Israelis. Both nations must work hard to make this future
permanent and alive. The historic issue between Bonn and
Jerusalem will always be between the two nations - states.

Maybe it is not a coincidence that this letter is written in
the days between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kipur.

I take this opportunity to wish you Shana Tova and Gmar
Chatima Tova and am looking forward to hearing from you,

Dear Henry

I tried calling you Wednesday evening, your time, to discuss details of your Australian trip.

I confirm that Ros & Kerry Packer are giving a dinner for you at their home, 76 Victoria Road, Bellevue Hill, on Monday, November 13 - there is a possibility Kerry may be in South America and if so, his son James will host the dinner with his mother (Maybe you would like to fax Ros to thank her - fax no. 363-2437. The dinner immediately follows the Cocktail Party that my mother is giving for about 40 people at her home, 21 Greenoaks Avenue, Darling Point.

You did express an interest in spending about one and half hours on Sydney Harbour on Sunday, November 12 - this has been tentatively organised with Mr & Mrs John David & Mr & Mrs Denis O'Neil for 5.00pm, if that fits in with your schedule of doing the interview for the Financial Review, (departure from a private jetty in Point Piper). Would you like me to organise a dinner after that.

Dr Wayne Clarke has been in touch with both the Premier of New South Wales and the Leader of the Opposition and both have expressed their desire to meet with you - the Premier will not be at the Breakfast but the Leader of the Opposition is attending. Both are in Sydney as Parliament is in Session and have loosely agreed that you will go to Parliament House late morning on Wednesday, November 15, (close to your Hotel).

Time obviously restricts you having lunch with the Board of the Victor Chang Institute on the day of your departure, however, would it be possible to do a radio interview from your Hotel immediately following the Breakfast at say 9.15am with John Laws on Radio 2UE ?. He is one of the most powerful men in media in this country, has a listening audience of 2 million (which isn't bad in a population of 18 million) is a Director of the Victor Chang Institute (and he is also a good friend of mine).

The other request I have is an interview with Ray Martin on "A Current Affair" programme on the Nine Network (owned by Kerry Packer) - you did "A Current Affair" on your last visit.

I know that you have the 9.30am round table discussion immediately following the Breakfast so there is probably not enough time to take you by helicopter to Channel Nine. Can we look at this when your schedule becomes clearer. As far as the round table discussion is concerned, everything is in order. It is to be at the Regent Hotel (where you are staying and where the Breakfast is being held). There will be six journalist attending and it will be hosted by Paul Kelly who is the Editor in Chief of The Australian, the Murdoch owned National Daily and he is also a Director of the Victor Chang Institute.

Invitations have all been posted for the Breakfast a few days ago and already we have sold 360 tickets which is just sensational.

I don't think there is anything else to touch base with you about - just know that I am here to make your visit to Australia as easy and happy as possible.

Your Royal Highness:

Your letter to Dr. Kissinger about the International
Hope Foundation arrived just as he was leaving on an
extended trip to Asia. He did have a chance to read
it, however, and asked me to respond on his behalf
so that his reply would not be unduly delayed.

He was very honored by your invitation and appreci-
ciated your thinking of him. However, he tries to
adhere to a policy of not lending his name to organi-
zations to which he will be unable to make a meaningful
contribution of time and commitment. Unfortunately,
at present, while he is working on his next book, his
time is especially short. For that reason, he does
not believe it would be in the best interests of the
Foundation or himself to agree to become a member,
even in a purely advisory capacity.

He hopes you will understand and know that you have
his sincere good wishes for the success of the
Foundation in its truly humanitarian efforts.

With Dr. Kissinger's warmest personal regards,

THE INTERNATIONAL HOPE FOUNDATION

Dear Henry,

OCT 27 1995

As you probably know, I have been involved in UNESCO, the United Nations Agency in charge of education, for a number of years. Through this work I have become particularly aware of the plight of 150 million children, the world over, whose lives are governed by the rules of the streets. Separated from their families and banished to the periphery of society, they struggle for survival in an environment fraught with danger, from labour exploitation, to the violence of outright persecution, rape and sexual abuse, to hunger, drugs AIDS, and other dreadful diseases. UNESCO's work is more urgent than ever, if we are to prevent their ranks from doubling in the next generation.

We believe that governmental bureaucracies are often limited in their capacity to address the difficult problems that these children confront. You will therefore understand why my colleagues and I are searching for alternative methods for addressing the problems, methods that will reach these children in their usual circumstances and offer them the opportunities to experience safe childhoods and to grow into productive and satisfying adulthoods. More must be done: this

Dear Governor Pataki:

The level of economic development in New York State will ultimately determine its financial condition and stability. The creation of job opportunities has been the focus of my activities since I retired as CEO of the Allen Group, a NYSE company.

As described in the attached memorandum, the Long Island Research Institute is a vehicle which we created through a collaboration of Brookhaven National Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Stony Brook University and North Shore University Hospital. I believe that we are the only organization in the country that has succeeded in bringing about a collaboration between such diverse institutions -- i.e. a National laboratory, a State University and two private institutions. All four of these institutions, in varying degrees, are involved in biotechnology and other high-tech areas. R & D spending runs in the order of $500 million per year.

As a nation, we have been notoriously unsuccessful in translating R & D into commercial products and jobs. Amongst the States, New York has not shown much leadership in stimulating new company formation, attracting companies to the State, or even retaining existing companies.

In the three-year history of the Institute, together with a Venture Fund which was organized last year, we have started seven companies and have some 14 others in various stages of evaluation. For each dollar of State funding, we have been able to attract between $20 and $30 of Federal support and primarily private investments.

Gov. George Pataki

May 26, 1995

Here is an opportunity to take an existing vehicle, which has proven to be viable and which could become a model for other areas in New York State where there are significant research resources, e.g. Buffalo, Rochester and Albany.

The Institute is not a "quick fix" solution, but over a five- to ten-year time frame, I believe it will have a major impact on Long Island's economy, as it could in other parts of the State. The enclosed memorandum will serve to give you some additional background.

There are a number of great success stories where there has been an active collaboration between the state providing enlightened leadership and private industry as a partner. Perhaps the most dramatic example is the Research Triangle in North Carolina. In this instance, a collaboration between the Governor's office, Duke University, the University of North Carolina and North Carolina State has resulted in the creation of some 50,000 high-quality jobs. It was started in the 1950's.

My own commitment has been one strictly of public service and pro bono. I can think of no effort more consistent with the basic thrust of the Republican Party than to unleash the creative resources of the private sector to harness existing technology.

Best wishes.

THE LONG ISLAND RESEARCH INSTITUTE

AND HIGH-TECH ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

IN NEW YORK STATE

The Long Island Research Institute (LIRI) was created in 1992 by Long Island's major research Institutions and the State of New York to foster commercial development of the region's scientific and technical strengths. LIRI has now demonstrated its effectiveness in mobilizing private sector and federal resources, as well as the technical resources of the region, to stimulate high-tech economic growth. The LIRI experience and model can now be used to enhance economic development programs in other selected regions in New York State.

Knowledge- and technology-based industry must be one of the cornerstones of economic growth in New York State. Fortunately, the State is richly endowed with the "basic resources" for such development. Its technology-based companies, its research-oriented universities, and its federally-supported laboratories contain the ideas, technologies and talent to fuel high-tech economic growth. However, as was the case on Long Island before LIRI came into being, there are insufficient mechanisms in place to foster technology commercialization and the growth of new high-tech companies. As a result, the State's high-tech natural resources remain under-exploited.

## The Long Island Research Institute

Sponsored by Brookhaven National Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, North Shore University Hospital and the University at Stony Brook, and supported by the New York State Science and Technology Foundation, LIRI fosters high-tech economic development through:

* commercialization of technologies arising from the region's major research activities and from individual inventiveness, and

* management of cooperative economic development programs aimed at specific sectoral opportunities.

LIRI has assisted close to 100 individuals and companies. Several companies have emerged from LIRI's commercialization process. For example, a new company has been created to commercialize a technology developed at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory for identifying cancer genes. Another company, providing waste management services based on biological treatment, benefits from cooperative research with Brookhaven. A third will be manufacturing a kidney preservation device developed at Stony Brook.

New York State provides LIRI with basic funding of $400,000 annually

MAY-25-95 THU 1:35 PM LIRI

FAX NO. 5163616840

supporting its technology commercialization program. On the basis of this seed financing, LIRI has been able to attract to the region significant additional private and public sector funds including $1.7 million of federal applied research and economic development money.

A significant part of LIRI's capability is the associated, privately financed, Long Island Venture Fund. Created to work with LIRI, the Fund provides seed capital for high-tech start-ups. This makes available $12 million for targeted economic development on the Island. The Fund has already financed six companies. Our experience to date indicates that one dollar of Venture Fund investment produces 3-5 dollars of follow-on investment only within the first year. In this process, State dollars are leveraged up by a factor of 20-30. In effect, state dollars are used to catalyze private investment in economic development.

A primary objective of LIRI is regional high-tech economic development, and job creation is one reasonable way of quantifying the success of that process. Other regions have demonstrated that an emphasis on high technology and R&D can create significant numbers of jobs. For example, Massachusetts' early emergence from the recession, and the creation of 40,000 jobs, is attributed to the growth of small, high-tech companies, a state priority.

However, the mere number of jobs created does not in itself adequately convey the impact of our high-tech development programs. The types of jobs created by LIRI's activities tend, on the average, to be high paying and to have high multiplier effects. While the start-up or expansion of high-tech companies starts off slowly, and accelerates over time, the existence of a dynamic, growing high-tech region can attract other high-tech companies. This process not only creates jobs, but creates or strengthens entire new industrial sectors.

## Application to Other Regions of the State

LIRI's successful formula can be applied to other regions of the state where there are research and technological capabilities in universities, federal laboratories, private research institutions or large corporations. There are, of course, economic development institutions of various kind, and various degrees of effectiveness in other regions. We would propose to work with the Department of Economic Development to identify those regions where incremental activities of the kind pioneered by LIRI could be beneficial. In some instances a limited advisory role for LIRI might be appropriate. In other regions a collaboration between the local institutions, LIRI and the Long Island Venture Fund (or some state-wide version of the fund) might be appropriate.

The activities suggested above aiming at the development and creation of small high-tech companies constitute only one element of a coordinated State effort in high-tech economic development. To be successful, the proposed program should be
