Complainant's Name: Memo from Bill Loughrey to FL ~P re: Xq.Y. Times article of 12/14/75.

Respondent's Name: Deere &Company

Relevant Statute: Registration Statement, July 10 and Oct. 10, 1975 Reports of Ilinois'i- Fu d (Dkb- VC

Internal Reports Checked: ______

Federal Agencies Checked: ____

SUMMARY OF ALLEGAT ION

Th ny-su novdhr sa seto in the Times articler supr, that Deere and Co. records filed with the FEC indicate that the size o-f-an executive's contribution was roughly proportionate to his position

_wit~h the company in relation to other execu-tives. The article says the ~. General Counsel of Deere confirmed that the company had suggested levels of donations.

N PRELIMINARY LEGAL ANALYSIS As there is no suggestion in the article that Deere epoe n

coercive methods in encouraging contributions, an investigation

seems unwarranted. In Pipefitters v. U.-S., 407 U.S. 395 (1972),

the Court indicated that solicitation was permissible which employs " i any appropriate method of fundraising;in this connection,_fundraiSinq by suggested levels of giving based on salary scales is extremely common

and is, indeed, used by the Federal Government in soliciting for the flE COM 1-END AT1ON community chest.
