Pursuant to Art. I, Sec. 3 of the By-Laws, ten or more members of the Club may transmit in writing to the Secretary the names of additional candidates in time to enable the Secretary to mail a supplementary notice at least five days prior to the Annual Meeting. In order to allow for delays in mail delivery, the names of additional candidates should be submitted to the Secretary ten days before the meeting.

2. The agenda for the Annual Meeting will also include consideration of amending the first sentence of Art. III, Sec. 2 of the By-Laws to read as follows (words to be added are *underlined*):

"Any person who has received a degree from Harvard University or Radcliffe College, or has completed at least one academic year at Harvard or Radcliffe as a student, or as a professor, instructor, or officer, or who is carried on the records of the Associated Harvard Alumni, is eligible for nomination for election to membership."

This technical amendment, which has been approved and recommended to the membership by the Board of Directors, would have the effect of conforming the Club's membership eligibility definition to that utilized by the Alumni Office in Cambridge.

Honorable Henry Kissinger
Secretary of State
Washington, D.C.

Dear Henry Kissinger:

It was my loss that I didn't know you better during my five year stay
at Nelson Rockefeller's 55th Street office.

History will certainly confirm my constantly growing belief that the
United States has never had a better Secretary of State. I am well
aware of what it is like to be viewed through the wrong end of the
glasses, but I'm certain that you can ignore the dumbbells.

You have not only helped prevent a mideast war and been instrumental
in the recognition of Mainland China and detent with Russia, but now
begun to help the African's negotiate peacefully into the late twentieth
century and wrench that continent away from a catastrophic race war.
(Imagine a twelve million square mile Lebannon).

May you stay in the best of health and have a successful shuttle trip.

With best regards.

TO: ALL RESIDENT MEMBERS

The attached CLUB RULES have been carefully developed to provide the maximum use and enjoyment of Club facilities and services by the Membership. These Rules represent what are considered to be the very best possible solutions to the many complex and difficult problems associated with the operation of our large and active Club.

You are urged to review these Rules and to cooperate in their application, and are also urged to make certain that each member of your family who expects to use the Club is also familiar with the CLUB RULES, and most especially that part of the Rules dealing with the activities they plan to enjoy.

Much of the success of our Club operations depends on Membership understanding of the RULES and their cooperation in abiding by those Rules. We are hopeful that every member will continue to do his or her part to assure the maintenance of our high Club standards.

Your Club can provide you only two things, facilities and service. In our efforts to serve you better we welcome your suggestions and constructive criticism, but we request that you submit them in writing so that they cannot be misinterpreted or forgotten. The Club's Management and the appropriate Committee will give full consideration to such letters received and you will receive a written response. We will all do our best to serve you in order to make the coming season the finest ever.

In cases of flagrant misconduct of members or their guests, the pertinent details should be brought to the attention of the appropriate committee chairman or the General Manager for possible referral to the Executive Committee.

This includes use for "practice" (i.e., warmup, volleying without regard to scoring, intermittent practice of shots, etc.) involving actively participating players and normal equipment provided play on adjacent courts is not unreasonably interfered with as a consequence. This does not include lessons, instructions or coaching given by a non-participant, the introduction of special equipment or additional balls, or comparable activities or circumstances.

### 4. Use of Facilities:

a. General—All rules of play, attire, playing time, and use of facilities apply equally to all courts except as modified herein. All players will report to the Tennis Professional or his assistant prior to play, and he will regulate the order and precedence of players.

b. Policy on Use of Facilities—It shall be the policy of the Tennis Committee to provide for a reasonable number of scheduled tennis events involving the reservation of courts, while at the same time, keeping open the maximum feasible number of courts for the use of members; accordingly, no event will be scheduled which utilizes more than eight of the Har Tru courts. Events such as Round Robins, inter-Club matches for men, women and juniors, intra-Club tournaments and MALTA-sanctioned tournaments will be scheduled only with permission of the Tennis Committee.

c. Tennis Season—The normal tennis playing season will be from 1 April until 31 October. The winter season will normally be from 1 November until 31 March. However, the Tennis Committee may adjust these dates as appropriate.

d. Court Maintenance—The Tennis Professional will

(22)

close courts when necessary for maintenance; however
he will limit this insofar as possible to times when ac-
tivity is normally light.

e. Use and Assignment of Courts During Normal
Tennis Season:

1. The Tennis Professional is responsible for court assignments. Players will take court assigned by the Tennis Professional or his assistant.

2. As a matter of policy, the Tennis Professional will assign players to unoccupied courts prior to asking a player of lower precedence to vacate a court.

3. Each member will register at the Tennis Shop before playing. If courts are full, the Tennis Professional will maintain a separate court waiting list. Precedence for courts will be determined by a player's position on the Court waiting list. All players for a match will be listed on the court waiting list.

4. A player may not place his name on the court waiting list until he is ready in all respects to play, i.e., attired in tennis clothes and the players for his match are determined to be present. A player may not have his name placed on the court waiting list by any other person, or while already occupying a court. When a player completes his time on one court, if he desires to play further, he must place his name on the court waiting list and may not play again until his name has reached the top of that list and a court is assigned.

5. When players are waiting for courts, the play of any player shall be limited to one hour of singles or one and one-half hours of doubles. Players are expected to monitor their own starting times and to vacate the court voluntarily when the authorized period of time has elapsed. Time begins with the occupancy of this court— not when the actual match begins.

6. If a match has started, and a substitution for a player is made, the court will be vacated at the time the

(23)

[L.C.]

authorized period for the original match would have expired.

7. A single player cannot hold a court. Two players cannot hold a court for a doubles match. Two people signed for a singles court, if joined by two more players for doubles are limited to the originally assigned hour for singles.

8. Provided a waiting list is initiated the following applies:

a. Having signed up for singles play may be re-scheduled to doubles prior to court assignment only by the addition of players then waiting to play.

b. After a court has been assigned for singles play the play may be converted to doubles within the hour allocated for the singles only. It is not necessary that players added in the latter case be solely from the waiting list.

f. Priority of Assignment within Membership Categories:

1. Members—Every day except on courts 7-10 on Ladies' Day (Thursday 9:00-11:30 a.m. and 1:30-4:30 p.m.), when scheduled tournaments are in progress, or when an inter-Club or intra-Club match is being played.

2. Ladies—May play at any time that court load permits. On Ladies' Day, between the hours of 9:00-11:30 a.m. and 1:30-4:30 p.m., ladies will have priority on courts 7-10.

3. Juniors—May play at any time that court load permits. Juniors will take precedence over ladies on the hard surface courts Monday through Friday, exclusive of holidays.

All players for a match will be listed. Priority for court assignment will be determined by sequence on the court waiting list, not on time of arrival at the Club.

3. Precedence for court assignment at all times will be members, spouses, and juniors.

4. During this peiod, all courts will be treated alike in court assignments, even though two or three Har Tru may be kept open longer than the others.

## 5. Guests:

a. A member will accompany his guests and register them personally by name prior to commencement of play, including Mondays.

a. During the playing season the Tennis Shop will be open every day except Monday, from 9:30 a.m. until sunset. On Monday, only the front of the Tennis Shop will be open to allow access to the lockers and rest rooms. When the Tennis Shop is closed, a key may be obtained from the switchboard operator (if the Club

(27)

[LC]

House is open) to enable a member to gain access to his locker. This key must be returned promptly to the switchboard operator.

b. Rest rooms in the Tennis Shop are not intended to serve as dressing rooms. Showers, space for undressing and dressing, and area for hanging clothes are extremely limited. Members are encouraged to use facilities in the Club House.

## 9. Reservation of Courts:

a. Reservation of courts for individual member's matches is not authorized. However, intra-Club tournament matches will be given priority for court assignment and time limits will be suspended to allow completion of matches. This rule does not apply to Club ladder and other like challenge matches.

b. The Tennis Committee may reserve courts for approved tournaments or matches, including intra-Club and inter-Club activities. Tie breaker rules will apply to all tournaments.

c. The Tennis Professional shall have reserved for his use such courts as the Tennis Committee may prescribe. When not actually in use by him or his assistant, such court may be used by members, but these courts will be relinquished promptly upon the Professional's request. The Tennis Professional normally will not use a court after 12 o'clock on weekends and holidays.

d. Courts will not be reserved for team practice. Time limits for playing and normal court assignment policy will apply during team practice.

(1) An absent member, other than an absent founder member, shall be transferred to resident status effective the forty-fifth day after his arrival within the resident limits of the Club as a result of a permanent change of station or domicile. During this 45-day period, he shall be restricted from use of Club facilities in accordance with current provisions for absentee members, that is not more than 15 days annually, unless he chooses to resume resident status earlier after using the 15 days accorded him. Should he use the Club more than the 15 days, resident dues would automatically begin on the 16th day of Club usage. A founder absent members shall be transferred to founder resident status effective the date requested provided he has not held such status within the previous three months. Failure of a member to notify the Club of his

status will not relieve him or responsibility of paying dues in the status in which he rightfully belongs.

(2) A resident member who departs from the resident area for a period of three months or more may be transferred to absent status. The effective date of change of status will be the actual date of departure or the date the Secretary receives notification, whichever occurs later.

(3) Application for inactive resident status, wherein a member chooses to forego use of the Club facilities for a minimum period of one year, may be made by a member residing within the resident area by letter to the Secretary. The application shall be placed upon a waiting list as of the date of its receipt. His application will be acted upon in turn whenever the average number of resident members for the calendar-year-to-date exceeds 1950. Officers of the grade 04 and below are eligible to go on Inactive Resident status regardless of the quota. A member may by notifying the Secretary's Office, resume active resident status at any time after one year has elapsed in inactive-resident status. Once he returns to resident status he shall not be allowed to take up inactive resident status prior to one year in resident status.

The provision herein authorizing inactive resident status may be suspended by the Executive Committee.

### Limitation on Resident Membership

d. The number of resident members shall normally be limited to two thousand, to be apportioned as follows:

(1) The Regular Active list of 1250 to consist of:

a. Commissioned officers on the active list of the regular services of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Public Health Service and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association.

5

b. Career Reserve officers, of those services, with a minimum of two years active duty who at the time of application for membership are on extended active duty involving permanent change of station status.

(2) The All Others list of 750.

These limitations will not be applied to prevent the transfer of absent members to resident membership status if otherwise authorized, nor will the limitation on the all others classification operate to discontinue the resident membership of an officer upon termination from Active Service duty under honorable conditions.

### Conduct

e. (1) The provisions of Federal, State and local laws shall govern the conduct of members, guests, and employees within the Club House and buildings and upon the grounds of the Club, and violation thereof shall be subject to such action as the Board may deem proper.

(2) Any member who engages in unseemly conduct, both in action and appearance, or other indifference to the obligations of membership, as determined by the Board, or violation of the By-Laws or Club Rules, shall be subject to such action as the Board may deem proper.

(3) The sponsoring member is responsible for the conduct and for the indebtedness to the Club of all guests, junior members and their guests, whom he may introduce.

### Suspension and Expulsion From Membership

f. The Board may, by majority vote at a regular or special meeting, suspend or expel a member for conduct deemed detrimental to the best interest of the Club. Suspension or expulsion shall

not serve to abrogate Club indebtedness, but shall operate as a release and assignment of all interest in Club property, except in the case of a life member.

Based upon a recommendation from a Committee Chairman the Executive Committee may impose temporary suspension of an individual from the use of the Club or specific activities for a period of not to exceed two weeks for improper conduct or significant infraction of the Club Rules.

### Reinstatement

g. The Board shall have the power to reinstate a member who has been suspended, expelled, or dropped. In such cases Article VII, paragraph g shall apply.

### Resignation

h. Resignation from the Club must be submitted in writing to the Secretary and shall be accepted only upon payment of all Club indebtedness. No member shall be permitted to resign until his initiation fee has been paid in full. The acceptance by the Club of the resignation of a member shall operate as a release and assignment of all interest in Club property held by the member.

### Life Membership Certificate

i. The Club purchase and cancel all Life Memberships offered for sale. Upon the death of an original holder of one or more Life Membership Certificates, one such certificate may be assigned either to the widow of the deceased or to his son, or such certificate or certificates may be sold to the Club and cancelled. Upon the death of any other holder of one or more Life Membership Certificates, one such certificate may be assigned to the widow of the deceased, or such certificate or certificates may be sold to the Club and cancelled. Any holder of one or more Life Membership Certificates or his executor, who sells to the Club for the purposes of cancellation, his certificate or certificates, may designate one individual who, if accepted by the Board of Governors, shall be admitted forthwith to

6

Resident or Absent Membership. In the
execution of this Article, the Club shall
not pay for any Life Membership Certifi-
cate a price in excess of $1,000.

Notification of Address and Change
of Status

j. Each member is responsible for
notifying the Club of any change in
address or membership status.

ARTICLE VI

Guests

Guests are those persons to whom
the privileges of the Club shall be extend-
ed under the following provisions, subject
to the payment of the prescribed charges.

a. Guests may be introduced into
the Club when accompanied by a member
in good standing. No guests introduced
under this provision shall be entitled to
incur any indebtedness to the Club. The
use of the Club facilities by guests shall
be governed by the Club Rules.

b. An individual may be issued a ten-day guest card upon request of a life or resident member, once in any one calendar year. Fees and service charges for use of Club facilities by such guest shall be at the guest rate as distinguished from rates assessed members. The member upon whose application the guest card was issued shall be responsible for any indebtedness incurred by the holder and for his conduct. The number of guest cards that may be issued on application of one member shall be limited to not more than five per calendar year.

c. No person shall be introduced as a guest who shall have been expelled from membership in the Club, or whose presence at the Club shall have been found undesirable by the Board.

d. The introduction of non-mem-
bers to the Club on special occasions for
the purpose of attending class dinners and
luncheons, invitation tournaments, or
playing matches, and authorized enter-
tainment given by organizations of
military or naval personnel are not con-

sidered as entitling such persons to the

and-Comptroller, the Club Secretary is

Accounts of Members

e. Charges incurred by a member
are due and payable on the first day of
the month following that in which the
charges were incurred. Dues are payable
in advance in accordance with the "Table
to Accompany Article V - Membership".
Any member whose account shall not
have been paid by the twentieth day of
the next ensuing month after which the
obligation became due and payable is
delinquent, (except see paragraph f. be-
low concerning absent and inactive resi-
dent dues). If the obligation is not paid
on or before the twentieth day of the
second ensuing month, the delinquent
member shall be suspended automatically
from all privileges of the Club until such
time as the account shall have been paid
in full together with a reinstatement fee
of ten dollars. Further, any member
whose account is delinquent more than
once in any twelve month period shall
also be suspended. Any member suspend-
ed shall be notified immediately in writ-
ing by Treasurer-and-Comptroller. The
names of delinquent members shall be
posted on the door of the administrative

7

office. The names of suspended members shall be posted on the door of the administrative office and on bulletin boards in the Arlington Grill, and Golf Pro Shop. If a suspended member fails to settle his indebtedness in full on or before the twentieth day of the third ensuing month after which the obligation became due and payable, he shall be dropped from membership and shall be so notified in writing by the Chairman of the Membership Committee. Termination of membership does not serve to abrogate Club indebtedness, but shall operate as a release and assignment of all interest in Club property, except in the case of a life member. This paragraph refers to all categories of membership, however, the sponsoring member shall be responsible for the indebtedness to the Club of all guests, junior members and their guests, whom he may introduce.

f. If absent or inactive resident dues of a member for one year are unpaid at the time the statement is mailed for dues for the next ensuing year, the member shall be allowed sixty days from the date the statement is mailed in which to settle his account. If, at the expiration of this period, the account remains unpaid, the delinquent member may be dropped from membership. The provisions of this paragraph will be conveyed in writing to the member at the time the delinquent statement is mailed.

g. No member suspended or expelled under the provisions of paragraph f, Article V, and no member dropped under the provisions of paragraphs e and f, Article VII, may be reinstated without payment of either the current initiation fee or annual dues during the period suspended, expelled, or dropped, plus a reinstatement fee of not to exceed ten dollars per year during such period. The Executive Committee will determine the amount that a suspended, expelled or dropped member must pay to be reinstated.

h. The Executive Committee may, at its discretion, waive a payment of the

reinstatement fee and authorize an extension of time for payment of an overdue account.

i. Except for such cash payments as the Treasurer-and-Comptroller may authorize, members and their guests shall sign chits for refreshments, supplies and services as may be furnished them.

j. Members sponsoring special events, such as a promotion or wedding receptions, which cost $300 or more may be permitted by the Treasurer-and-Comptroller to pay such charges in not more than three equal monthly payments.

## ARTICLE VIII

### Limitation of Club Responsibility

a. The Club shall not be liable for any supplies furnished to it, nor for any engagements whatsoever creating indebtedness, except as a result of orders placed by authority of the Board or of the Executive Committee.

b. The Club accepts responsibility for valuables turned in to the office of the Treasurer-and-Comptroller for safekeeping and for other articles definitely placed in the custody of employees whose duties clearly authorize them to accept responsibility for such articles. With the foregoing exceptions, the Club shall not be responsible to members and guests for loss or damage to their property or for injuries sustained in the Club House and buildings or upon the Club grounds.

## ARTICLE IX

### Amendments to By-Laws

These By-Laws may be amended as follows:

a. These By-Laws may be amended by a two-thirds vote of the members present or properly represented by proxy at any annual or special meeting at which there is present a quorum for the transaction of business; provided that a copy of the proposed amendment or alteration shall have been mailed to each member of the Club (life and resident) thirty (30)

8

days prior to said annual or special
meeting and each member encouraged to
vote on the proposed amendment in
person or by proxy; and provided further
that a copy thereof shall have been
posted in a conspicuous place in the Club
House for a period of not less than thirty
days.

b. A proposed amendment may be initiated by a two-thirds vote of the members of the Board who are present at any regular or special meeting at which there is present a quorum for the transaction of business, or by petition of ten per cent of the resident membership. In the latter instance, upon receipt of the petition the Secretary will mail a copy of the proposed amendment to each resident member (including the petitioners) requesting his view in the premises. If thirty per cent of the resident membership indicate approval within sixty days from the date of mailing of the notification, the proposed amendment will be placed on the agenda and processed in accordance with the procedure set forth in paragraph a. above. In the event favorable response of thirty per cent of the resident membership is not received within sixty

days from the date of mailing of the
notification, the proposed amendment
fails with the expiration of the sixty day
period. The matter so failing cannot be
reopened for a period of six months from
the date of the expiration of the sixty
day period.

c. Amending a proposed amendment to the By-Laws may be accomplished by a majority vote of the members present at any annual or special meeting at which there is present a quorum for the transaction of business, by adding to, by insertion or striking out and insertion, or by substitution, provided that such alteration is within the scope of the notification forwarded to the membership and provided further that it does not increase the modification of the proposed amendment.

d. In addition, Articles V, VI, VII and VIII may be amended by a two-thirds vote of the members of the Board who are present in person at any regular or special meeting provided that the proposed amendments are placed on the agenda for that meeting and distributed in advance to all members of the Board.

The Honorable Dr. Henry Kissinger
Secretary of State
Washington D.C. 20520

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

Your extraordinary performance as one of the greatest statements in the world has always been a shining example for me—a student of world affairs—since you joined the Administration. It was a great experience and pleasure for me to take the opportunity to study while serving as an Armed Forces Attaché in the Vietnamese Embassy in Washington D.C. where your diplomatic skill was displayed in full. (1969-1971).

Now, thanks to you, Vietnam finally has peace. As I enjoy my first peaceful Christmas in my life, although under the hardship of being in exile, I feel that it is proper to send you a sincere personal Christmas greeting note, telling you that despite the loss that the minority of Vietnamese have suffered, the greater majority of Vietnamese do enjoy peace, since war is always the most horrible thing on earth.

Also, I wish to share with you the personal feeling that no matter how much one has contributed to the government, he does not feel at ease when leaving the office. To me, it seems as if the educational institution is the only place where a scholar hopefully can find peace and satisfaction.

After 21 years doing my military obligation, I am now trying to educate myself, and looking forward hopefully to enroll in the University that will have the privilege of welcoming you, whenever you decide to share the invaluable experiences and knowledge of yours with the younger generations. Incidentally, I wish you to know that I still have with me now your autographed portrait which I always treasure, despite the hardship of getting out of Vietnam, just one day before the fall of Saigon.

Again, I thank you and wish you a merry Christmas, a happy and very successful new year.

EXPRESSE.

Dear Mrs. Mosbacher,

I received your letter of August 10, 1973, in which you let me know that on the evening of September 25th my friend Henry A. Kissinger will receive the HOPE Award for International Understanding.

I cannot think of any occasion which I would like so very much to attend. I am linked to Dr. Kissinger not only with great bonds of personal friendship, but I am an unreserved and very great admirer of his and I am delighted that he will receive this great token of distinction.

I cross the ocean many times a year but unfortunately the days of September 24 and September 25 are already filled with obligations on this side of the ocean which I cannot possibly cancel.

I hope you will understand my deep regret not to be present but also the reasons for it. The transatlantic crossing unfortunately takes at least two days. Be assured that during that dinner my thoughts will be with you.

Project HOPE

is the principal activity of The People-to-People Health Foundation, Inc., an independent, nonprofit corporation supported primarily by donations from the American people. Project HOPE brings the skills and techniques developed by the American medical, dental and allied health professions to the people of the United States and other nations in their own environments, adapted specifically to their needs and way of life.

It was at President Dwight D. Eisenhower's request for an international people-to-people health program that Dr. William B. Walsh conceived and created Project HOPE. Later, President Eisenhower stated, "I firmly believe Project HOPE is the single most effective step in presenting America as a warm and good friend ..."

In recognition of this faith and encouragement, Project HOPE established in memory of Dwight David Eisenhower "The HOPE Award for International Understanding," to be presented from time to time to an individual, group or corporation contributing the most toward international understanding.

The award is to be presented to Henry A. Kissinger "for his deep commitment to the eventual realization of world peace."

Dear Henry:

I cannot help but tell you how sorry I am that it all should have come to this. What must be a personal tragedy for you contains within it-self ironies that I, even uninvolved as I am, can hardly contemplate.

I can only guess what you, having received the Nobel Peace Prize, and in the circumstances that you did, must feel. It would require a degree of courage not given to most men to face the circumstances you find yourself in and move on in spite of them.

For what it is worth, I have believed in the rightness of what I thought you were seeking to accomplish and have defended it many times. I can't claim any overwhelming success in my efforts. Yale faculty members, like those of other universities, all have the advantage of being able to criticize without being forced to come up with a solution, or to have to make decisions in situations where the eventual outcome cannot be seen at the time.

It may possibly be of some consolation to you that -- here, at least -- almost to a man these critics now feel that the attacks upon you are not deserved and that the press is engaging in a vendetta that is irrational and out of proportion. Perhaps one can view it in a somewhat more kindly way if one thinks that the press, too, have had their problems in the last six years, I can understand their reasons for lashing out in all directions, even though I find it less than admirable. I believe that you too can probably understand it.

Betsy Chamberlin, an old and dear friend, whom you may perhaps remember as Moynihan's "right hand" has spoken eloquently of the excitement of their first two years in the White House and their hopes that great and important work could be done. She and I both look upon the Watergate years as a tragedy for the nation, rather than in any sense of triumph -- or getting even with a man or a group of men who were disliked and abused their power. To quote Dory Previn, I cannot "dance on a grave".

Dr. Henry A. Kissinger

April 30, 1975

In the long run I think history will not associate your name with the fall of Saigon, which would probably have fallen eventually no matter what we might have done. History will remember your trips to Peking and Moscow, detente, the SALT talks, and your incredibly determined and exhausting shuttling back and forth from one capital to another in order to come closer to the solution of insoluble problems than anyone else has come before. In time you will be thought of as a man of peace. My own recollection of our many discussions in the past is of the number of times when your first thought was for compassion.

The last time we met in person, in 1968, on the day NAR withdrew from the race for that year, I recall your saying, "Well, June, it looks like it takes you and me to be on the wrong side three elections running". It may now look almost as if there were a fourth, but I would presume to suggest that in the long run this will not be so. And I hope that having Nancy with you will make it all more tolerable. May I say now, extremely belatedly, what wonderful news it was to hear of your marriage. We had all hoped that it would happen and were so delighted when it did.

It is to the future that we now all must look. There is much to build, and you are very much needed to build it. Please don't resign or be forced out of office. No one can or could have done better. What about NAR's confederations? Is it a possibility, now that you are both there? Or are there so many daily fires to swat out that there never is time to plan for the long-range future?

Whatever happens, I want to say that, even though Vietnam is painful, I think we can stand its loss. What I think we cannot stand is to make ourselves responsible for things we cannot control, and -- yes, I remember your oft repeated "How does a nice girl like you get her ADA leanings?" -- we cannot stand to make ourselves responsible for a government which does not have the support of its own people.

We all wish you the best of luck. Please stay on. It will be worth it -- to all of us -- probably even to you.

March 22, 1975

The President
The White House
Washington, D.C. 20500

Thank you for your gracious letter of March 7.

My principal mission in Switzerland has been to negotiate and effect a Judicial Assistance Treaty whereby the traditional Swiss banking secrecy might be breached under certain circumstances, particularly involving U.S. organized crime, Mafia, other crimes which are also crimes under Swiss law, etc., upon due application by the United States Government.

The reason for my mission was the increasing use by U.S. criminal elements of secret Swiss Bank accounts in the Sixties, well publicized and made a political issue at the time by Robert Morgenthau, then United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. This issue received frequent attention on the front pages of *The New York Times* and other national newspapers and periodicals.

My mission was far from easy to accomplish. The Swiss bankers, as well as their colleagues in industry and commerce, were united in opposition when I came to Switzerland in July, 1969. Tacit opposition lingers on, and even today the President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Switzerland, himself a prominent Swiss banker, is against the Treaty. The Swiss official with rank of Ambassador in charge of American affairs told me that we would not get the Treaty just a month before the Judicial

Assistance Treaty between Switzerland and the United
States was signed by Walter J. Stoessel, then Assistant
Secretary of State for European Affairs, and myself on
May 25, 1973.

How this was accomplished is too long and of too recent
origin to recount fully now. I am nevertheless proud that
the mission with which I was charged by Secretary of State
Rogers was accomplished.

The Treaty was ratified unanimously by the National Council,
the Swiss Lower House, last December, and a sub-Committee
of the Council of States, the Upper House, has unanimously
recommended its passage. Its consideration by that body,
scheduled for later this month, has just been postponed
until June, but I hope and expect its passage then,
barring untoward events.

While I realize that this letter may not be seen by your
eyes because of the heavy burdens of your office, I thought
it might be of interest to your advisors who may not be
familiar with either the Judicial Assistance Treaty or the
reason for my mission to Switzerland and its success.

Last week a high official of one of the major Swiss banks,
in saying goodbye, told me I would be remembered as "the
Ambassador who broke the Swiss banking secrecy."

While any revelation of this at present would be premature,
I believe it to be the case and am happy to have been able
to accomplish this in the interests of the Government of

Dear Henry -

For some years I have been a member in New York of the Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin, whose headquarters are at the fifteenth century castle Clos de Vougeot, just south of Dijon in France. It is the foremost Burgundian wine society in the world, and this probably extends to other wines as well. I am now a Grand Officier of the Confrerie.

During the autumn the Confrerie holds a number of formal dinners at the Clos de Vougeot which are gourmet master-pieces and which are attended by several hundred persons, with the head table composed of well-known personalities.

I have been asked by the authorities of the Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin to extend a most cordial invitation to you to attend one of these great dinners, depending entirely upon your schedule and when you might be available. It is understood that the decision can be made at the last minute by you, according to your travel plans and whether you happen to be in Paris or at least nearby for that particular weekend.

Specifically, the following dates have been suggested:

Saturday, October 6th, Chapitre d'Automne, at which Helmut Schmitt, Minister of Finance of the Federal Republic of Germany has already accepted as a guest of honor.

-2-

Saturday, October 20th, Chapitre des Vendanges, at which our Ambassador in Paris, John N. Irwin, has accepted as a guest of honor.

Saturday, November 24th, Chapitre du Prix Litteraire, at which Winston Churchill, Member of Parliament and grandson of Sir Winston, has accepted as guest of honor.

Saturday, December 1st, Chapitre de la Saint-Hubert, at which Prince Bertill of Sweden has accepted as guest of honor.

You would, of course, be guest of honor along with those mentioned above, and as aforementioned, your decision could be made at the last minute, simply by a telephone call to me or to my secretary, Miss de Rouville (tel: 031/43.00.11) in Bern, and we will notify the authorities, specifically Jacques Chevignard, Grand Chambellan, at Nuits-Saint-Georges, France (tel: Dijon (80) 23-12-33). If you prefer, you could notify Jacques Chevignard himself. He is one of the founders of the Confrerie and is a most charming person, as is his wife Eleanor, who is an American. He is receiving a copy of this letter.

Each dinner commences promptly at 8:00 p.m., although frequently there are ceremonies in advance which you might find of interest. Dress is black tie, although I am sure it can be waived in your instance if this is not convenient. The dinner lasts generally until around midnight, and there is singing by a wonderful chorus of vignerons during the dinner. All in all, it is one of the most remarkable spectacles for the gourmet as well as for the eye in the world, and I think you would enjoy it.

Should you choose a particular date, I shall myself make every effort to be there, and it would be a great pleasure of course to see you again. My congratulations on all that you have achieved for the good not only of our country but of the world.

With every good wish and with warm regards,

O
