TALKING POiNTS
1. I. am very glad that yoti':could join us today. I know that ¥OU share my concern for the f:uture of ·the United States and the developing coun·tries, t:he d:mportance of· our relationship with them t6 ·bur· nation and to ·the Amer�can peopie:. . .
2. I have spoken on many occasions to leaders�of .developing countries. on many issues theit·�views are different fJ;om ours. But one goal that we. sh;are is that of helping the.ir peoples develop and increase their ·aoil.ities to meet their. needs. for jobs, food, health,, and .s'l1elter. our collaboration with developing countries in this task is one of ·our major responsibilities as a WOir!"¢1 leader' and as a nation bles.sed with g�eat riches.
3'. To further increase our ability :to assis·t other nat,ions'·, I have. asked Governor Gilligan: to lead an ef·fort to. enhance
� the effectiveness of U.S. assistance programs·. He will act as t'h·e Administration ' s principal ·Spokesman on foreign assis.tance issues and as the Chairman of the Develo.pment coordination Committee, whose coordination of the work of all government agencies interested in aid will greatly help our aid efforts.
·
4.. Developing . countries · need resources and techno.logy to· fulfill their objec.tives for .their long . ...:run development. I have there.fore anl)ounced the creation. of a Fottnd:ation for International T:echnologicai collaboration. It will become
. a f.ocal. point for our support· o.f' research, development, and experimentat·ion in de:velop.ing countries.
· ·
5� .I have directed that our aid be concentrated on those that need it most, and on the poorest countries. But we need the support of the American people ·and · cang:r;-ess if we are to play our full part. I ani frequently made awa:re of the fact that. our country ·is not doing·· enough.·· We are, for
. example, the only nation in the world tha.t is: in. ar.r.ears · . in its co.ntributions to. the mu:Ltiia:teral development banks. During my recent meeting in Bonn,. all of the.'other leaders. stres·sed ·the· imp·ortance of increased ·as'sistance to the developing countries. · With them I have pledged ·m.y support for greater development·co�peration·wif:.'h deve10ping nations.
I . : .•
6. The assistance programs that I proposed this .year to ·. ·
Cong.ress ·which· would support our own activities and those of the International Develor:>ment. Banks and the united Na.tions are designed to make a signifi.cant1-contribution to world d�V;eiopmeii.t.
· · ·
·
7. But as you well know, the Congress does not always share my view that our foreign aid programs are essential to the well-being of hundreds of millions of people and to our own nation's capacity to meet the challenge of a changing world. Unfortunately, it is all too popular to practice fiscal responsibility by cutting foreign aid. This year, I requested a total program of some $8.3 billion, only to see it cut by over $1 billion by the House Appropriations Committee. That amounts to a 13 percent cut (25 percent for the i'nternational banks). This is more than fiscal responsibility. Some in the Congress also propose restrictions similar to those that already restrict the effectiveness of our aid and that can adversely effect our participation in multilateral institutions.
8. Our attention is now focused on the House and its vote on Wednesday. But we must also look ahead to the consideration by the Senate of the aid bill in coming weeks. Your own efforts and those of other American religious leaders in support of U. S. foreign assistance have been very significant, particularly since so many of you have supported private overseas activities that complement so well what our government can do. You have , also been active in the debate on America's role in the world. Only through public debate, of the sort that you have encouraged, can our people come to understand the links between our society and poor countries. I encourage you to continue both these tasks. I need your help, and that of those who look to you for leadership, to get adequate foreign assistance appropriations through the Congress.

Hubert H. Humphrey North-South Scho1arships
In Caracas in March, you announced your intention to establish a program of scholarships in memory of S.enator Humphrey to bring. stud�nts from the developing world to study in u.S. colleges. On your re,turn, you asked tha•t we set. up an interagency group to work with Mrs. Humphrey and formulate a proposal for your .decision. Representatives from the Domestic Council, NSC, State Department, ICA, and OMB worked on the J.ssue, and fully support the recommended proposal which is at Tab A. It is the product of many inter-ag.ency meetings where many other pro.:posals were saggested and discarded.. Orig.jinaUiy, we considered a .scholarship program. for poor undergraduates,, but we rejected it because it was: (a) much too expensive (about $3·0 million per year); ('b) impractical -- it would be difficult to select genuinely poor but qualified students :from the third world; and (c) disorienting -- in their most formative years, LDC students
could not avoidbecoming "Americanized", and many would seek careers in the U.S.
We. settled on the proposal for a single-year, early career program because it is inexpensive (abo�t $5 million per year}; it would provide an education for. those wJ;10 otherwise wouldri' t have the opportunity; and it is most likely to coA.tribute to the career of a new generation of leaders.
OMB has reviewed the budget figures, supports the proposal, and has already included i.t in the current planning figures for FY 1980. ICA has informed us' that the program can be established by a merna. from you to ICA, instructing. them to implement the program under the authority of the Fulbright Act .
RECOMMENDATION:
We have attached such a memo at Tab B, and recommend that you sign it. We have already consulted with Mrs. Humphrey, who
- 2 .-
'supports the proposal, and we will brief the Congressional leadership before your announcement.

HUBERT H •. HUMPHREY NORTH-SOUTH SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
I. Proposal: To establish a Hubert H. Humphrey North-South Scholarship Program for outstanding youth of modest means from all of the developing·countries to study for one year of specialized training in the u.s. The scholarships would be offered to men and women engaged in public service to study in fields directly related to their work, including health, social work, rural or urban development.
II. Purpose: The Program's purpose is to help educate a core group of a_:.new generation of developing world leaders. Like the Rhodes Scholarships, 'the "Humphrey Scholarships" could provide an education and a common experience for a g.roup of future. leaders, and by so doing, provide a compelling· symbol of u.s. interest in the developing world. Moreover, by the competitiveness involved in obtal.ning such a scholarship, student applicants will demonstrate to an American public disinterested in the third world that the LDC's still are very in.terested in the U.S.
Those scholarships could not, o£ course, contribute very significantly to narrowing the educational g.ap between the industrializ.ed and the developing countries, and the last thing we would want to do is sell the program in that way. But it could show in a very visible way that we are intent on contributing to the narrowing of that gap, and it possibly could have a "demonstration effect ... , setting an exa�pl.e which other u.s. institutions might emulate.
By seeking out the talented youth who might otherwise not be able to afford an education, the program would be demonstrating a special American concern for he·lping the poor and for promoting equality of opportunity. The purpose .p:f the studies would be to enhance the .students' capabilities· for public service, in particular to help improve incomes, living standards and employment of poor people and enable them to contribute more effectively to the equitable development of their country.
III. Number of Participant·s: The scholarships would be made avail-· able to men and women -- in roughly equal proportion ·Overall from all developing countries with which we have diplomatic relations on a scale weighted by population (3 for countries over 10 million, 2 for those between 1 and 10 million, and 1 for countries with a population of less than 1 million, for a total of 241 students}.
.;;. ;
.. • -2-
IV. Selection Criteria: Under the terms of the program, outstanding young professionals, age 25,;.,33, working in disciplines related to the public service for at l.east two and no more than five years, and unable to afford further education, would be sel.ected for a one-year course in the United States, which may lead to a degree, but doesn't have to. The following additional criteria would be used in selecting. the candidates: they should be identifiable as potential future leaders; their education in theUnited States should be directly related to their future career development.; they must be assured re-employment in their chosen career on return to their home country; they should be of a relatively modest family background, by partici� pating country standards, and essentially dependent on his own salary for meeting living costs; they should have completed the equivalent of undergraduate university training (or post-secondary school institute) • . The selection would be made by the same administrative mechanism, augmented where necessary, a:s the Fulbright program. Ehgl.ish language preparatory s.tudy would be offered where necessary.
The course, at a selected American institution of higher learning, would .. be followed by a 3-month summer workshop which would stress North-South development problems, but would also be designed to increase the participants' understanding of the u.s. At leas·t a part of the summer workshop would take place at The Hubert .H. Humphrey Institute for Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota.
V. Administration: Placement and supervision of the students in the Unl.ted States would be handled by a suitable contract agency, probably the Institute of International Education. Five years after the program begins·, an evaluation of the program should be undertaken to make sure the program produces some measurable improvement in the careers of the scholars and that the program receives the appropriate recognition for this improvement.
VI. Budget and Au.thorization: The annual cost of the program without allowance. for inflation, would be $5 million.
Congressional authorization for such a program exists in the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961,
as amended. The necessary appropriations require Congressional action.

MEMO:RANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
Subject: Telephone conVersation w.i.th Senator John Glenn in response to-his letter of July 21
For your information., the following points were made with Senator John Glenn during our telephone conversation r:egarding, his reference. to not being able to .reach me.
On June 31,. 1978 - I tried to speak with Senator John Glenn from North Carolina. Glenn 1 s · off'ice indicated that he could not be reached.
On July 11, at iO: 15 a .. m.., Assistant Secreta,ry Manatos called Senator Glenn on my behalf to arrange a meeting.. Glenn 1 s off·ice did not return the caili.ls.
·
On July 18, I rearrang�ed my schedule, setting aside 3:00 - 3:30 p.m. for a meeting with Senator Glenn to discuss this ,issue. Seven calls were placed to his office to confirm his availability for the meeting.. No calls we·re returned.
��r Juanita M. Kreps
Dear Mr. Chairman:
THE SECRETARY OF COMMERCE Washington, D.C. 20230
JUL 2 7 197'8
Thank you for your le.tter of July 21, which you sent to the President regarding the estahlishment of the Census Advisory Committee� I am glad that we were able to discuss by telephone today the matters you raised in your letter to the President of July 21. ·I regret that staff misunderstandings between my office and your office have prevented effective cornmunication·on this issue. Working together we.can prevent that in the future.
In response to the_ specific issues you have raised, let me make the following. points. Consistent with the directive of President Carter to reduce the number of advisory committees within the. Federal Government, 22 of the 88 ad:visory committees that existed within the Department of Commerce when I took off,ice have been terminated. I should point out, however,.that during my year and a half in office, the number of total advisory committees in the Department-has increased due to the creation of 24 new· Departmental advisory committees enacted by Congress.
\ . . .
. .
The Census Advisory Committee is being established for the following reasons. The Congress expressed concern about the Bureau's procedures and opera.tions and about the Bureau's ability to evaluate its.e1f. They believe that an advisory committee, designed to advise the Secretary, could serve as a valuable mechanism to.address their concerns. This communication came from the Chairman and Members of the House Subcommittee on Census and Population which approved legislation to reform the Bureau of the Census.
The need for an advisory committee was again articulated by the Members of our House Appropriations Subcommittee who cut· the Census budget by $25 million. They have indicated that establishment of the Census Advisory Committee would be considered a major step toward dealing with their concerns.
- 2 -
Likewise, the business community, the minority community, farmers, and city and county officials have also suggested that the census process might benefit by an assessment from outside the Bureau. It is my hope that the report of an independent Census Advisory Committee will put to rest the criticism.
·.In response to your concern that the functions of the Advisory Committee of the American Statistical Association (ASA) will be duplicative of the Census Advisory Committee,·
our review indicates the following differences between the two Committees. First, the AS:A Committee appoints persons to committees to advise the Bureau of the Census, whereas the proposed Census Advisory Committee would advise the Secretary of Commer,ce. Second, the ASA Comrni ttee ' s review is primarily designed to asses;s the technical problems of the Census such as sampling, analysis., estimates and projections, whereas the Census Advisory Committee will review a1.1· procedures and. operations of the Bureau of the Census. .
Third, the ASACommittee is staffed by the Bureau of the Census, whereas ·the newly established Census Advi.sory Committee will have full-time staff persons.
You also referred in your letter to a Panel on Decennial Census Plans which wa-s organized by the National Committee on Statistics of the Na.tional Academy of Sciences. Following the submission of their final report in a few months on the Decennial Census, the Panel's contract will expire. The Advisory Com.'llittee's scope will go beyond the Decennial Census and the Committee will be an ongoing effort to examine a wider range of issues.
The Office of Statistical Policy and Standards is the Office which addresses statistical policy matters throughout the Federal Government. However, it does not review overall
Census Bureau operations and procedures.
I believe that this information_will give you a better understanding of the Department's actions·on this issue.

In order to be sure that we have a full und ersta ndi:ng of the matter, h oweve r, I shall i ook forward to meeting with you next week for further discussion.
s·incerely,

"Our firm is hea•;ily in'folved in the shopping center bUSiness. l'va-ne\er s�n a strOnger.demaild by retaile!'S. We just got Morgantown, N.C. There were six national developers trying to get it.''

· · bers - smaller cities are starting to iigi)t bad:. · ·
PittSfield, M3.SS., jtljtscored an apparent maj)r vir.:tcry by persuading the Pyramid compar:ies r.·i Syracuse, N.Y. - the ver;y sarr:e clevelop;;rs <;Yho a year a�o wanted to build a

. The Pyram!1 ceveloper3, described as "tough, charming, pushy cowboys lor c!evelop-

ment," have built 26 shopping centers. all . 1 subw·ba11; many inflicting grave wounds on I nearby downtowns. But they were thwarted in ! Lenox by Gov . . 1\.!ich.ael_ Du.'<alris, who re- 1 spoaded to Pittsfield's call for heip by threat· eaing to deny access. to the state highway for \
1, any suburban mall nearby. · Pittsfield's success is not yet assUred. I
. Federal · and state aid will· be necessary to I build a 2,SOO to 3,0®-ear parking garage at a
I . �t of up to $15 million. And major depart· meat store chains - so far reluctant - must be persuaded to come into the project. · .

THE WHITE t;IOUSE
WASHINGTON
July 28, :),978
MEMORANDUM TO THE PRESIDENT
1-· csA FROM: JIM FALLOWS, JON ALTER
SUBJECT: Talking Points for Reception HonoJ;ing Gold Medal Winners in the Tchaikovsky Competition, July 311 1978.
1. It's truly a pleasure for me to weicome all of you
here today, especially Nathaniel Rosen and E:Lmar Ol.iv.i.erct,
who both won gold medals at the world famous Tchaikovsky
competition earlier this month in Moscow. This is a
magnificent achievement, not only for Nick and Elmar,
who have received perhaps the highest tribute in the
world of classic.:t,l m11�;ic, but also fo;r- the United State$.
2. It has been twelve years now since we've won any gold
medals at ali at the Tchaikovsky competition and 20 years
since an instrumentalist -- Van CJ,.ib1,1rn -- took a fir$t.
'This year we won two gold m�dals and aii Americans are
very proud. We have many fine classical musicians in our �
Nation who bring enj oyment. to millions, but .these men deserve
special recognition. I'm honored just to meet them.
3. Nick Rosen, a cellist, won with Dvor·ak' s Cello Concerto
and Tchaikovsky's Varia.tions on a R,ococo Theme. In l966, .:tt
age 17, he played the same Tchaikovsky piece in Moscow before
-2-
losing out in the finals. All I can say is it's a good
thing you decided to go back. Pittsburgh, I know, is
particularly proud of you. You've made a great contribution
to the symphony there. Nick's wife Jennie also plays
the cello, and his father David, who is a California
judge, is an ameteur violinist. He predicted his son's
victory.
4. Elmar Oliviera's superb violin performance also dazzled
the judges, who gave him a gold medal along with Ilya Grubert
of the Soviet Union. He played the Brahm's G. Major
Sonata and Henri Vieuxtemp's Fifth Concerto flawlessly.
Elmar's first violins were made by his father and there must
have been magic in them. Those who watched him play with
Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic at age
sixteen knew they were seeing a virtuoso, and he's been
impressing audiences around the country ever since. Music
lovers in Elmar's hometown of Binghamton, New York are
especially pleased, I'm sure.
5. With 280 participants from 37 nations, the Tchaikovsky
contest represents a spirit of cooperation that inspires all
the nations of the world. I hope that political and social
differences whatever they may be -- never get in the way
of this kind of rich cultural exchange.

6. Here at home we have our own great cultural heritage
and today I am delighted to welcome the board members of
the Institute of Museum Services, a new federal agency
that provides support for our Nation's wonderful museums.
I'm pleased to see representatives of so many different
kinds of museums here: art, science, and history museums,
botanical gardens, planetaria and aquaria. And you come
from all over the country.
7. Our nation has among the finest museums in the world
and with the help of the Institute we will make them
better still. We must keep our firm commitment to the
well-being and improvement of museums. They continue to
enrich the lives of all Americans. I welcome you to this
museum and hope you enjoy the fine examples of American
art and furniture in the White House.
(Note: Douglas c. Dillion, President of the Metropolitan
Museum of Art and President Kennedy's Secretary of the
Treasury is on the Institute Board.)
