Dear Henry:

You must know how proud we all are with
the latest recognition of your achievements and
dedication.

Your recent statements clearly state the
challenges ahead.

You will recall that before the election,
we discussed with Leo Cherne, Bill Casey and others
the need for implementing your program of consensus
and education. I will be glad to do anything I can
to help.

I had a good visit with Al Haig about a
month ago. Please give him my very warmest regards.

Best, as always.

Thanks for the kind regards you sent me through

your correspondence.

I have kept in touch with our close mutual
friends but have not wanted to bother you with all of
your burdens. Some of our friends could take lessons
on how to conduct press conferences.

If I can be of any help at any time, please

Dear Henry:

You finally made the front pages in Chicago, but it took Nancy to accomplish that.

Dave Abshire was good enough to seat me next to Nancy at a Center luncheon. If the press is correct in this instance it will be a superb omen for the future.

In any event, my warmest respects to both of
you and my very best wishes for the Holiday Season and

Dear Henry:

I hope you won't mind a personal request....
in the midst of your enormous burdens. That young
partner of mine, Newt Minow is having a birthday on
January 17th and his wife wanted to present him with a
picture of the two of us. Since under the present cir-
cumstances that's impossible, I wondered whether I
could ask you to send me a picture of yourself inscribed
to Newt for his birthday.

If you could possibly do this, I would
appreciate it if your secretary would send it to me at
the office.

We are making some progress on several of
the fronts that you and I are interested in and the next
time I'm in Washington I will try to give you a current
report.

My very best wishes for a healthy and happy
New Year.

But I'm back at the office and feeling well.

Please tell the Secretary that I appre-

Minow. We are going to give it to him on a special
occasion, so his acknowledgment may not come very
soon.

Extend my best wishes to the Kissingers.

Dear Henry:

I merely wanted to confirm our telephone conversation
of last week in which I told you how much we would all appreciate
your having Nancy be the guest speaker for the Weizmann dinner
honoring Eppie Lederer (Ann Landers). Kup is the General Chair-
man. I needn't tell you what wonderful communication this would be.

I also wanted to make sure that I didn't violate protocol,
woman's lib, etc., by not writing Nancy directly, but frankly
I didn't make a note of your home address.

So please be sure and tell Nancy that I'm going through
the "Secretary".

Warmest personal regards to you and Nancy.

Dear Henry:

Permit me to assure you that the time you took from your busy
schedule was well spent.

I made two subsequent points:

1. Even before the Watergate syndrome, you were talking with me and others about the problem of educating America to geopolitical thinking. The word "strategy" is still unknown to the American public. <u>Foreign relations</u> are episodic intrusions.

2. I find among the hard liners, even in the Midwest and South, a steady erosion and great apathy about the Mid East in particular.

Again, my thanks for Nancy's warm courtesy in inviting Mrs. Leibman to her dinner for Mrs. Rabin.

As always, it was a treat to be with you.

Warmest personal regards.

Dear Morrie:

I was glad to hear from you, and it would be good
to get together here, as you suggest, to talk over the
ABA's role in foreign policy. You can well imagine
what my schedule for the next few months will be like.
Please let me know when you are in town and perhaps
we can work something out.

Your invitation to address the Law Club is tempting,
but I cannot see how I could do it in the foreseeable
future. Since you mention Joe Sisco, I agree he could
certainly provide an interesting evening for you. I
understand he wants to visit Chicago early next year
and would probably be glad to hear from you.

Secretary Kissinger is not at this time considering proposals as to what he might do in that eventuality. However, if you would like to submit any suggestions for his attention, when and if he does consider the possibility of lecture tours, please address your communication to him in care of Mr. George Gillespie, Cravath, Swaine & Moore, One Chase Manhattan Plaza, New York, New York 10005.

Dear Mr. Secretary:

Would it be possible for me to come and see you at your convenience, either in Washington or in New York, to discuss the possibility of our once again representing you for such lectures as you may be willing to give, now or in the future?

Not only do I believe that the highest lecture fees ever secured for a speaker will be yours, but I feel that we are uniquely able to handle very effectively this aspect of your life by reason of our experience of more than thirty years in representing Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt during her days in the White House and afterwards. Both our commission and service would be adapted to your unique position and requirements.

During the time we represented Mrs. Roosevelt we probably handled more than 10,000 inquiries a year, selecting those most suitable and submitting them for clarification. Perhaps the most important thing we could do for you is this same sifting of inquiries and submitting for acceptance or rejection those which, as a result of discussions with you, seem most desirable not only financially but in terms of national and international importance.

Your plans for lecturing may be far in the future, nonetheless there will be a limitless number of inquiries coming to you which will need examination, even though the commitments could not be made at this time. Taking care of these requires unusual service and knowledge, and I feel that our 50 years as a predominantly successful lecture bureau make us uniquely well qualified and suitable for this important project.

When would it be possible for me to come and see you to discuss this matter? Representing you would, in my opinion, be the most important single event that the lecture business has ever dealt with, and I can think of nothing that would give me greater pleasure and satisfaction.

My dear Mr. Secretary:

Soccer is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States. As of today, the North American Soccer League, of which our professional home-town Washington Diplomats are a proud member, has grown to twenty teams in major cities across the United States.

At present, nearly 40,000 area youth are participating in organized soccer leagues, while Metropolitan high schools are gaining national prominence for their outstanding programs and performance.

In order to give the Washington Diplomats fans and soccer fans all over the country a boost, I would like to invite you to attend the opening game of the Diplomats on April 27 at 2:30 p.m. If you find it possible, we would be highly honored if you could kick the first game ball in our game against the New York Cosmos.

It would also be helpful if you could write a letter to us with a picture to be used in the Washington edition of the NASL's KICK! Magazine.

You of all people, are aware of the international importance of soccer. I'm sure that a large segment of the American public would be delighted to associate their favorite sport...soccer...with the Secretary of State.

I anxiously await your reply.

Dear Mr. Secretary:

With our Bicentennial Year of 1976 coming to an end, and being a
collector of United States Stamps and Covers, I thought it would be of
great interest to me to make up some cachet covers for our Fifty States
and the Executive Branch of the Government, and mail these to the Fifty
Governors plus the Executive Branch asking that they autograph the
envelope and mail it back to me.

I would appreciate it very much if you as Secretary of State would
so honor me with this request, during this Bicentennial year.

You will find that the envelope is open with a card filler for your
inspection. Would you kindly seal the envelope before returning.

Thanking you in advance for what ever help you can be to fulfilling
this dream of mine.
