This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu IT'S A PRIVILEGE TO JOIN YOU THIS EVENING IN SALUTING JACK DANFORTH. THOSE OF YOU HERE MAY NOT REALIZE IT, BUT YOU ARE REALLY WITNESSING HISTORY TONIGHT. I CAN'T REMEMBER A TIME WHEN THIS MANY SENATORS ATTENDED A DINNER, AND ONLY TWO OF THEM ARE SPEAKING. 1 Page 1 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu ONE SENATOR WHO COULDN'T MAKE IT DOWN THIS EVENING IS STROM THURMOND. SINCE STROM HOLDS THE RECORD FOR SPEAKING ON THE SENATE FLOOR FOR 22 HOURS STRAIGHT, HE'S RARELY INVITED TO SPEAK AT BANQUETS. HOWEVER, STROM DID ASK ME TO PASS ALONG TWO THOUGHTS. FIRST, HE WANTS TO BE INVITED 2 Page 2 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu TO THE ST. LOUIS RAMS TRAINING CAMP. AND SECOND, HE STILL CAN'T IMAGINE WHY SOMEONE AS YOUNG AS JACK WOULD WANT TO RETIRE FROM THE SENATE. AND HE SAID THAT IF JACK CHANGES HIS MIND IN COMES BACK IN TEN OR TWENTY YEARS, HE'LL BE THERE TO GREET HIM. 3 Page 3 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu THERE ARE QUITE A FEW SENATORS AND CONGRESSMEN HERE TONIGHT--REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ALIKE. AND IF YOU BROUGHT UP AN ISSUE OR TWO, WE'D PROBABLY HAVE SOME DISAGREEMENTS. BUT THERE IS ONE AREA WHERE I GUARANTEE YOU WE ALL AGREE. AND THAT'S THE ADMIRATION AND 4 Page 4 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu RESPECT WE HAVE FOR JACK DANFORTH. YOU KNOW HOW I HATE TO TAKE ISSUE WITH DEMOCRATS-- ESPECIALLY ONE WHO IS A MISSOURI LEGEND LIKE HARRY TRUMAN.

AND I SAY THAT BECAUSE l'M JUST ONE OF MANY IN WASHINGTON WHO KNEW FOR 18 YEARS THAT IF WE NEEDED A FRIEND, ALL WE HAD TO DO WAS CALL JACK DANFORTH.

WHO 6 Page 6 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu THEY WOULD WANT TO PROVIDE COUNSEL AND FRIENDSHIP WHEN THE CHIPS WERE DOWN, THE OVERWHELMING ANSWER WOULD BE JACK DANFORTH. BUT BEFORE I GET INTO TROUBLE, LET ME ADD THAT HARRY TRUMAN WAS RIGHT MORE OFTEN THAN HE WAS WRONG. AND HE WAS RIGHT WHEN HE SAID THE FOLLOWING: 7 Page 7 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu "DEMOCRACY IS A MATTER OF FAITH--A FAITH IN THE SOUL OF MAN--A FAITH IN HUMAN RIGHTS. THAT IS THE KIND OF FAITH THAT MOVES MOUNTAINS." AND IF THERE'S ONE WORD THAT CAN BE USED TO DESCRIBE JACK DANFORTH'S LIFE AND CAREER IT'S THE WORD "FAITH. II JACK ALWAYS HAD FAITH THAT AMERICA AND HER PEOPLE WOULD 8 Page 8 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu BE THERE FOR THOSE IN NEED. AND WITH INTEGRITY AND INTELLIGENCE, HE ALWAYS KEPT FAITH WITH THOSE HE SERVED. AS QUITE A FEW FOLKS DISCOVERED IN THIS LAST ELECTION, SOME POLITICIANS LEAVE OFFICE BECAUSE THE VOTERS TELL THEM TO LEAVE. OTHERS LEAVE BEFORE THE VOTERS CAN TELL THEM. 9 Page 9 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu BUT FOR JACK, THAT WASN'T THE CASE. THERE WAS NOT A DOUBT IN ANY SENATOR'S MIND-- REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT--THAT JACK WOULD HAVE BEEN RE- ELECTED. IN HIS LAST RACE, SENATOR DANFORTH WON 68% OF THE VOTE, WINNING ALL 114 MISSOURI COUNTIES. l'VE RUN UNOPPOSED BEFORE, AND NOT DONE THAT WELL. 10 Page 10 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu SENATOR DANFORTH LEFT THE SENATE BECAUSE HE HAD FAITH THAT THERE WERE OTHER AVENUES IN WHICH HE COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE. AND WITH INTERFAITH ACTION FOR CHILDREN TODAY HE HAS DONE JUST THAT. THE GREAT LARRY BIRD ONCE SAID "I HATE IT WHEN SOMEONE 11 Page 11 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu JUST STANDS BY AND WATCHES IT GO OUT OF BOUNDS." HE, OF COURSE, WAS TALKING ABOUT A BASKETBALL. BUT THE SAME HAS ALWAYS BEEN TRUE FOR JACK DANFORTH WHEN IT COMES TO AMERICA'S YOUTH. JACK IS INCAPABLE OF STANDING BY AND WATCHING OUR YOUTH GO OUT OF BOUNDS. 12 Page 12 of 41 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu AND BECAUSE OF INTERACT, THE LIVES OF THE DISADVANTAGED YOUNG PEOPLE OF ST.

In the ninth district, there is a good chance that Kenny Hulshof, 1994 candidate, will run and defeat Harold Volkmer (D) - if he doesn't retire first. There are rumblings in the fourth district against Ike Skelton (D). State "Senator No>' Larry Rohrbach is mentioned as a potential candidate. Another possibility is newly elected St. Sen Bill Kenny. Bill lives in eastern Jackson County (KC) and is a former Chiefs quarterback. In northwest Missouri in the 6th district Pat Danner (D) may find herself in a race against St. Sen. Sam Graves.

As you may already know, most of the money and contributors live in Jim Talent's district - West St. Louis County. The 7th district in SW Missouri is a GOP voter rich district. Missouri will be a swing state in 1996. If the state goes to the GOP nominee for President, then there might be a good shot at picking off Gov. Mel Carnahan (D). picking up 1or2 congressional seats and taking over a chamber in the state legislature. In 1993, Carnahan rammed through the largest tax increase in state history. This was after his 1992 campaign promise to put the tax increase to a vote of the people. This of course infuriated Mel Hancock, so he started his "Hancock If' campaign. This proposal would have retroactively repeaJed all tax increases that were not put to a vote of the people. Many people agreed with the spirit of the amendment. Unfortunately, the way it was written on the ballot tended to scare a lot more people. This proposal went down in flames on November 8. There is speculation that it galvanized the liberal democratic base in some areas of the state. If this is true, it probably affected Hulsho!' s chances against Harold Volkmer. The Univ of Mo and NE MO State are both in that district for example.

    The Protection of Missouri Governors Has Come a Long Way Since 1881, When Governor Thomas Crittenden Kept a .44-Caliber Smith and Wesson Revolver in His Desk Drawer

    GOVERNOR’S SECURITY DIVISION The protection of Missouri governors has come a long way since 1881, when Governor Thomas Crittenden kept a .44-caliber Smith and Wesson revolver in his desk drawer. He had offered a $5,000 reward for the arrest and delivery of Frank and Jesse James, and kept the weapon handy to guard against retaliation. In less than a year, Jesse James had been killed, and in October 1882, Frank James surrendered, handing his .44 Remington revolver to Governor Crittenden in the governor’s office. In 1939, eight years after the creation of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, several troopers were assigned to escort and chauffeur Governor Lloyd Stark, and provide security at the Governor’s Mansion for the first family following death threats by Kansas City mobsters. Governor Stark had joined federal authorities in efforts to topple political boss Tom Pendergast. Within a year, Pendergast and 100 of his followers were indicted. In early 1963, Colonel Hugh Waggoner called Trooper Richard D. Radford into his office one afternoon. He told Tpr. Radford to report to him at 8 a.m. the following morning in civilian clothes. At that time, he would accompany Tpr. Radford to the governor’s office. The trooper was introduced to Governor John Dalton and was assigned to full-time security following several threats. Since security for the governor was in its infancy, Tpr. Radford had to develop procedures as he went along. There was no formal protection training available at this time, and the only equipment consisted of a suit, concealed weapon, and an unmarked car.

Studies have shown that regulatory reform is needed because of the substantial impact on the economy, consumers, and businesses. Recent technological advances have al- lowed regulations to be quantified by a metric known as regulatory restrictions, which counts uses of “shall,” “must,” “may not,” “prohibited,” and “required.” Quantifying regulatory restrictions allows for comparison of the regulatory scope between states.
