BACKGROUND The Reagan forces in Utah, led by GOP State Chairman, Dick Richards, have a 60%-40% edge; therefore, to run a Ford slate in ernest would probably be futile. In order to prevent a complete Reagan sweep it is our strategy to back an uncommitted slate headed by Senator Gam. That includes well-known Republicans such as former Secretary David Kennedy, former Senator Wallace Bennett, and several legislators. Senator Gam has indicated he favors the President but will probably not run for delegate. He has complaints about White House handling of certain issues (Presidential trip to Utah, Executive Order on Predator Control, the Energy Bill, etc.) A call from the President to discuss these issues as well as his delegate candidacy is needed. PFC Chairman Warren Pugh agrees with this strategy. TOPICS OF DISCUSSION 1) Indicate your regret the Economic Summit pre cluded a visit to Utah. 2) Inquire about his problems with the Executive Order on Predator Control and ask about impact on Utah. 3) Inquire about your prospects at July 16 state convention. It's likely he'll indicate the situation is grave which provides occasion to ask for his help. 4) Each delegate to the national convention is critical: You would like him to run for delegate (uncommitted} and lead an uncommitted slate, thus lending his considerable popularity to your cause in Utah.

THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON June 15, 1976 RECOMMENDED TELEPHONE CALL TO: Hawaii Delegates to the National Convention DATE: As soon as possible RECOMMENDED BY: ~~~.Jim Field THROUGH: Richard B. Cheney BACKGROUND: The Reagan forces have been hard at work calling the Hawaii delegates. Jim Baker feels it crucial that the President make the enclosed calls in the order they are listed. Nola Haerle has spent a great deal of time putting the enclosed together carefully, and I feel the President will have adequate background on each of the delegates if he takes a quick glance through the attached forms. TALKING POINTS: l. I want to congratulate you on your election as a delegate, and I understand that your state convention passed a motion that your delegation will go to Kansas City uncommitted. 2. I want you to know that I understand and respect that decision, however, I will welcome the opportunity to meet with you when you arrive in Kansas City. SPECIAL NOTE TO THE PRESIDENT: It is best not to press for support openly as this delegation is strongly mandated to go to Kansas City uncommitted, but you have a great deal I of support in it, as you will see in the attached forms. ~o.... ~· "b iQ <'.,... i';; ·~) ' ~~ ~I .....:.; ~'bj • PRESIDENTIAL DELEGATE TELEPHONE CALLS Call to: Name of Delegate___ G_e_o_r..;g~e_H_e_n._r_ic_k_s_o_n ______..;....._ State Hawaii Address------808-537-9213 or 808-524-2496 Phone Number------Party b;ckground (when applicable) GOP State Chairman ..,· ·.
