On November 18, 1992, Mr. A. Sobchak, mayor of St. Petersburg and the Co-Chairman of the Russian-American Commission, sent a letter to Dr. H. Kissinger on possible cooperation in the area of AIDS. It was registered in our office as number 998-9. We, however, have not received a response to this letter.

Not long ago we learned from Dr. Andrei Koelov (sic), Director of the Bruce Rappaport Center for the Study of AIDS, that Dr. Kissinger had not received the letter from Mr. Sobchak. We are sending you a copy of the letter from Mr. Sobchak along with a translation.

With best wishes,

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

I wanted to call your attention to another direction of our possible cooperation. Everyone understands the danger connected with the spread of the global AIDS epidemic and the necessity of uniting forces for joint work against this threat to humanity. In Russia, this disease, fortunately, has not yet spread as it has in Africa and the United States. However, it is well known that even in countries such as Thailand and India where not long ago the situation was not too bad the situation has now deteriorated dramatically. Considering all these conditions, several years ago we adopted a resolution on the organization in St. Petersburg of a scientific-research institution which would focus on the study of the problems of AIDS. The incentive for this project was a letter I received from Dr. Robert Gallo--the well-known American scientist and co-discoverer of the AIDS virus who works at the National Cancer Institute. He proposed uniting our forces and recommended his student, Dr. Kozlov, who has done much work on the battle against AIDS in our city.

The recommendation from Dr. Gallo was supported by the international organization "Worldwide Laboratory," its Russian head Academic E. P. Velikhov, and Swiss businessman Mr. Bruce Rappaport. The city gave the newly established Center a building and ruble financing, Mr. Bruce Rappaport gave $1 million for the purchase of equipment, and "Worldwide Laboratory" provided its organizational and ideological support. The Center began active work on ... which were new for our country. In November of this year, it will conduct an international conference "AIDS, Cancer and Retroviruses." In connection with the fact that AIDS research requires a great deal of financial support, I ask you to examine the possibility of allocating some of the funds for Russian-American cooperation on this problem.

One of the applications of these funds might be the establishment within the Center of a joint Russian-American laboratory for the study of AIDS as was suggested by Dr. Gallo...

SUBJECT: Transmission of Letter from Mayor Sobchak to Dr. Kissinger

I am pleased to forward to you a letter from Mayor Sobchak to Dr. Kissinger in which the Mayor requests Dr. Kissinger's assistance in obtaining funding for AIDS research in Russia. Specifically, Mayor Sobchak suggests that some of the funding earmarked for Russian-American cooperation be used instead to establish a Russian-American AIDS research lab in St. Petersburg.

On another note, we are forwarding to Tony Smith via the APO a transcript of the October 9 CSIS St Petersburg seminar for verification and confirmation. The transcript probably will arrive in two to three weeks.

Commission

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

I'd like to attract your attention to one more trend of our
possible cooperation. Everybody understands the real danger of AIDS
epidemics and the necessity to combine efforts for joint fight against
this threat to the mankind. Fortunately, that disease has not
spread in Africa and U.S. However, it is known
that in such countries as Thailand and India the disease is
as in Russia not so long ago. But now it has abruptly changed for the
worse.

Taking into consideration all these circumstances several years ago we
decided to organize scientific research center in St. Petersburg, which
would have concentrated on studying the AIDS problem. The letter from Dr.
Robert Gallo, the famous American scientist who is one of the first to
discover AIDS virus, was an incitement to organize such an establishment.
He advised me to join our efforts against this disease and
recommended me his disciple Dr. Kozlov who did a lot in fighting against
AIDS in this city. The international organization "World Laboratory",
the president of its Russian branch Academician E. Velikhov and
Swiss businessman Mr. Bruce Rappaport, joined to the recomendations of
Dr. Gallo. The city gave to the newly created Center the building and
rouble founding. Mr. Bruce Rappaport gave $1 000 000 for the purchase of
equipment. "World laboratory" made ideological support and help in
organizing questions. The Center began an active work on the totally
new basis and has done a great progress. In November 1992 we will
hold an International conference "AIDS, Cancer and Human
Retroviruses". The research in the sphere of AIDS needs
considerable financing. In this connection I ask you to consider the
possibility to forward part of the money available through Russian-
American cooperation for this project. According to Dr. Gallo, one of
the possible investments of this money could be establishing of
Russian-American lab withing the framework of our AIDS Research Center.
The Director of the Center Dr. A. Kozlov discussed the idea of
establishing such a laboratory in US with:

Dear Henry:

Can it possibly have been twelve years since we were last together at one of the NASL meetings? It seems more like two or three. I fondly remember many of our meetings, and especially when we met Chairman Dung in the hotel in Seattle.

I have recently become involved with the National Soccer Hall of Fame in Oneonta, New York and think it is an excellent operation. I visited there last July and went through the Hall which has a large exhibit dedicated to the NASL. Your picture is there as Chairman of the League. Additionally they have a large area consisting of perhaps twenty different soccer fields, and when I was there, all the fields were filled with games. They plan to build an indoor stadium and an administration building to round out the facility.

The Hall has been nice enough to ask some of the ex-league directors to join their National Board. In addition to myself, some of your old friends who now comprise the board are Lamar Hunt, Ward Lay, George Strawbridge, George Wackenhut, and Werner Fricker, who, you will recall, was head of USSA. Ahmet Ertegun, also, has recently accepted.

I have been asked to extend an invitation to you to join this group and am delighted to do so. The board is strictly advisory, having no meetings and no duties; we simply lend prestige and dignity to the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

With the World Cup coming up, the United States will be spirited with soccer enthusiasm. As you probably know, Ahmet is very involved with this. My only involvement in soccer now is endowing the Hermann Trophy and awarding it annually to the outstanding male and female collegiate players in the United States. I am, of course, hoping to see some of the World Cup Games which should certainly be exciting.

I sincerely hope you will consider joining the Hall of Fame Board and hope we have the opportunity to get together sometime. I look forward to hearing from you.

THE HERMANN TROPHY

The Hermann Trophy is named for Robert R. Hermann of St. Louis, former Chairman of the Executive Committee of the North American Soccer League and one of its founders. It is college soccer's oldest and most prestigious award and is soccer's equivalent of the Heisman Trophy.

The Trophy originated in 1967 when Hermann was given a bronze soccer ball trophy by his fellow team owners in recognition of his efforts to bring professional soccer to the United States. Johnson Spink, then publisher of The Sporting News, suggested the award be perpetuated by being bestowed each year on the outstanding collegiate soccer player.

Initially the balloting was handled by The Sporting News. Presently the Trophy is sponsored and promoted by Reebok International Ltd. The Trophy winners are determined through a balloting of soccer coaches and sportswriters, nationwide.

Each Trophy winner, as well as the winner's school, is awarded a replica of the original bronze soccer ball trophy given Hermann in 1967. In 1988 the award was expanded to include both a male and female Trophy recipient.

Funding for the Trophy is provided by The Hermann Foundation, of St. Louis, Missouri.

Dear Henry:

I am thinking seriously of entering the race for Lloyd Bentsen's succession in the U.S. Senate. This special election, in early May, seems particularly opportune because it will be the only one of national interest at the time, in the whole country. It will be run without primaries, so that I ought to appeal to supporters outside Texas, including PACs, for maximum one-time contributions - which would then be repeated if I get into the expected run-off with the other front-runner - expected to be whoever is appointed by Ann Richards.

According to conventional wisdom it takes at least a million dollars to run a statewide campaign in Texas. I believe I could bring that way down by applying lessons from the use of electronic media during the recent presidential campaigns. In debates and forums, television stations and networks are going to have to give equal treatment to all candidates who have paid their $4,000 filing fee, and in that process I should emerge as at least as serious a candidate as the others who have entered or been mentioned so far - and the more so, the more seriously I am supported at the national level.

During the congressional campaign, a lot of people told me that I was overqualified for the House of Representatives, an argument that should be advanced, for the Senate, only in comparison with the other likely candidates.... I would emphasize the Senate's constitutional responsibilities for foreign relations and would try to make it, if not the greatest deliberative body in the world, at least the grand conceptualizer....

If you have finished the manuscript which kept you from coming to Texas for a fundraiser last year, it would be wonderful if you could do it this time, and with an even more plausible rationale.

In any event, I would love to get your advice. The time frame is not yet fixed, but it looks like a filing deadline in March, and the election on May 1st.

All the best,

Dear Henry Kissinger :

It is my pleasure to extend a personal invitation on behalf of Boy Scout Troop 634 of Lake Forest, CA to attend the upcoming Eagle Scout Ceremony recognizing our son David Jay Stein.

Our son, David has recently earned the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout, the highest rank in Boy Scouts of America. To honor him for his major achievement we will be holding an Eagle Court of Honor at the El Toro Marine Base on May 2, 1993 at 2:00 PM.

Under Davids' leadership and organization, Troop 634 won two consecutive First Place Baden Powell Awards (Baden Powell founded Boy Scouting) at the annual Orange County Scout Fair. The annual Fair is open to all Troops from the Orange County area, but only one can win the coveted Baden Powell Award that is awarded to the troop that best displays scouting skills and activities.

B.S.A. Troop 634 is the largest in Orange County with over 100 active Scouts. The Troop also has the highest number of trained adult leaders than any other Troop in the entire United States. The Troop itself is also to be commended for being run entirely by the scouts and for providing leadership training to the young adults of Scouting.

It is easy to see the pride my wife and I have for our son. Your attendance at the Eagle Ceremony would serve to show the pride shared by our community leaders and our elected officials.

I understand the scheduling difficulties that you encounter. Our son indicated that if you or your staff representative were unavailable, that you please forward any individual commendations and recognitions to the address above.

On behalf of the Stein family and Troop 634, we look forward to your sharing with us in this proud moment.

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

After months -- in fact, years -- of trepidation, I finally decided that this long-overdue letter had to be written and sent to you. By way of introduction, I am your cousin, and apparently there is an inter-twined family relationship based upon both blood and marriage.

Due to the passage of years, the death of my mother, and my inability to locate a copy of the family tree, I cannot provide all of the specifics, but as best I can reconstruct it, the family relationship is as follows: my maternal grandmother, Lina Stern, married my maternal grandfather, Sali Sonder, of Munich. It is my understanding that Lina was related to your mother, Paula; I believe she was Paula's aunt. Lina died in 1921, after giving birth to three children (Werner, Margot and my mother, Erika, all of whom are now deceased). After Lina's untimely death, Sali married Irma Kissinger. I understand Irma was either the sister or a first cousin of your father, Louis, and had a sister, Bella. Sali, Irma and the three children left Germany in 1936, settling first in Brooklyn and thereafter in Washington Heights. I never met Sali; in one of the two major historical ironies of his life, he had sustained severe internal injuries while serving in the German army during World War I as a result of exposure to mustard gas, which was exacerbated by the privations of life in a P.O.W. camp after his capture by the French and the delay in his release until 1919; he never fully recovered from those injuries incurred on behalf of a country which two decades later forced him and his family to flee for their lives, and died in 1940, shortly after my mother married Fred Stern (whose family lived in southwest Wuerttemburg and is not related to the Sterns in your mother's family) and three years before my birth. (The other historical irony was that upon his return to Munich after his repatriation, he received a congratulatory postcard from a corporal who had served in the same Bavarian Landser unit as Sali, said corporal apparently

characterized his leadership of the Reich after he attained
absolute power in 1933.) I saw Irma quite frequently before my
parents moved to Connecticut in 1953 --I remember being somewhat
less than enthused by her referring me as "Stiefele"-- but saw her
infrequently thereafter, especially after moving to Arizona in
1960, but met Bella on only a few occasions, although I remember
being fascinated by her telling me that she had lived for a number
of years in Seattle, a far-off city on the West Coast where it
rained for months on end.

When I was preparing to leave for Harvard Law School in 1965
after graduating from Stanford, my mother suggested that I look you
up after I arrived in Cambridge. Due to the pressures of law
school --a different world from the College and most of the other
graduate schools-- and youthful indifference to meeting relatives,
I put that on the "back burner" and never took any action to
contact you. Then, after graduating from law school in 1968 and
heading off to Southern California to practice law, inertia took
over, along with a hesitancy to write or call a relative whose name
by that time was a household word for fear of being seen as
attempting to capitalize on an attenuated family relationship.

In any event, my mother's death two years ago brought home the
realization that time is fleeting, and that I should atone for my
previous inertia by making a belated attempt to arrange a meeting
at a mutually-convenient time in the near future. Although I do not
find myself in New York as often as I would like, I understand that
you are frequently in the Los Angeles area, and I look forward to
hearing from you as to whether it will be possible for us to meet.

"George Shultz's account of his years as Secretary of State is an absorbing personal memoir that captures the complexities of a world in transition and of the people and events that propelled it. TURMOIL AND TRI-UMPH will be required reading for anyone seeking to understand American foreign policy."

If you would prefer to use the entire title of the book, please feel free to do so. Also, whatever your preference is as to the possessive of Shultz - Shultz' or Shultz's.

Sehr verehrter Herr Kissinger,

ich möchte Ihnen sehr herzlich zum 70. Geburtstag gratulieren und Ihnen Gesundheit, Schaffenskraft und Glück für Ihr weiteres Leben wünschen.

Mein erster Besuch in den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika hat mir vielfältige persönliche Eindrücke und politische Anregungen vermittelt. Diese auf Freiheit, Demokratie und Toleranz gegründete Gesellschaft kennenzulernen, war für mich ein faszinierendes Erlebnis.

Für unser interessantes Gespräch am Morgen des 19. April 1993 in New York möchte ich mich noch einmal herzlich bedanken. Es war eine ausgezeichnete Einstimmung auf meine Reise.

Die vielen Begegnungen während meines Aufenthaltes in den Vereinigten Staaten haben mir gezeigt, daß in Ihrem Lande viel Interesse und Verständnis für die besondere Lage Ostdeutschlands besteht. Ich denke, es ist mir gelungen, Brandenburg auf den Radarschirmen der Amerikaner erscheinen zu lassen, wie es das Ziel meiner Reise war.

Ich hoffe, daß wir weiter im Gespräch über die Veränderungen der europäischen politischen Landkarte bleiben. In Potsdam sind Sie mir jederzeit ein willkommener Gast.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
