Thru: Max L. Friedersdorf Vern Loen t} L

From: . Douglas Bennett~

I. PURPOSE

To discuss in general terms Congressional matters of 1nutual concern.

II. BACKGROUND, PARTICIPANTS AND PRESS PLAN

A. Background:

1. Congressman Waggonner, a leading Southern Democrat in the House and respected and ar..ticulate opinion leader on the Ways and Means Committee, will be discussing a range of issues before the Congress as well as presenting his assess­ ment of the House and the Ways and Means Committee.

2. With regard to the House he intends to describe the Democrat leadership and the general makeup of the Democrat caucus.

3. The Ways and Means Committee was expanded in this Congress from 25 members to 37 and for the first time created six new subcommittees: Health, Oversight, Public Assistance, Social Security, Trade and Unemploym.ent Compensation. Waggonner will discuss the makeup of the new committee, its personalities and leadership including the anticipated role of the recently returned former Chairman Wilbur Mills. - 2 -

4. The issues before the Ways and :tvleans Connnittee are ui major significance and include: energy policy, and capital formation needs, and financing of the Social Security system. Waggonner's perception of and interest in all three subjects makes him a guiding force in the de­ velopment of the matters. Of particular concern is Social Security and avoidance of general treasury financing. Note: On the subject of Social Security, Waggonner has the blessing of Subcommittee Chairman Jim Burke to proceed with a bipartisan task force comprised of the subcommittee members and drawing upon experts from the private sector to exa1nine alternatives for long term financing of the Social Security system. He anticipates the duration of this task force to be approximately four months. Avoidance of general treasury financing is the objection.

5. He will also discuss Federal regulatory reform and fiscal concerns at the Federal, State and Local levels citing the City problem as evidence of the potentially sad fiscal plight of our large cities.

6. He also wishes to discuss in general terms our defense policy.

7. During the Congressional Easter recess, Congressman Waggonner participated in a trip to Europe and the Mid-East and wishes to present his views on Mid-East foreign policy stressing the importance of a Presidential meeting with the leaders of Egypt and IsraeL

8. Waggonner intends to present his thinking on the 1976 Election from a Southern conservative perspective.

Since this event comes just a few days before he leaves for his trip to Europe and he will be very busy with last minute preparations, the President will be unable to join you on the evening of the 23d.

With his regrets, the President has asked that I thank you for thinking of him and that I send his very best wishes.

We had this in the first draft of the Presidential scheduling memo for next week but in the final memo that went in this morning, Warren took it off. obviously because of the European trip and cutting it down next week.

Shall I call and advise Marsh?

Or just write a reg:ret letter to and route it thru Marsh before dispatch?

Attached is a copy of the ack. I got from Mary. Presume Mary is still holding the original Botts letter.

MEMORANDUM FOR: WARREN RUSTAND

FROM:

Herb Botts, Director of the House of resentatives Gymnasium, advises that they will be having the Annual Congressional Gym supper the evening of July 23.

He would like for the President to consider this event with the hopes that he can attend. A formal invitation from the Congressional Committee will be forthcoming, but Mr. Botts wanted us to place this on the tentative schedule pending receipt of the formal invitation.

You will recall that the President attended this event last year as Vice President, which was attended by over 200 Members of the House. I think it would be helpful if you could drop a note of acknow­ ledgment of Mr. Botts 1 invitation to him in care of the House Gym­ nasium, Rayburn Building, .

Many thanks. StP 12 1975

MEMORANDUM FOR: JACK MARSH BILL NICHOLSON

FROM: BOB WOLTHUIS f?J!.W

SUBJECT: Biparti•aa Leaders Meetg Tue8day Evening

The Republican campaign organizations in the Senate and the House have a fundraising meeting in the Statler Hilton Hotel scheduled for Tuesday, January 20, from 6 - 8 P.M. It is not a formal dinner or a formal meeting. For them to adhere to the schedule would preclude the President from holding a dinner meeting from 6 to 8 p.m. that night. There are two options as I see it.

1. We could hold the leadership meeting at 4:30 P.M. and try and have it wrapped up by 6 P.M.

2. In talking to Wyatt Steward on Vander Jagt' s staff we could keep the 5 P.M. starting time and end the meeting in time for the Republican leaders to arrive at the Statler Hilton by 6:30.

I think there is some advantage for their fundraising cause to have the leadership arrive from the White House meeting.

SENATE

McClure, Jim t~ .. lv1r. President, you may wish to mention that the Nuclear Fuel Assurance Act will be taken up either today or Friday. It is important that this group support strongly that legislation. The talking points you may wish to consider are:

1. This is our best chance to make sure that the government does not maintain a monopoly on the primary fuels supply of the electric utilities industry in the next two or three decades.

2. The legislation only permits the government to negotiate contracts. The Congress will have the right to approve those contracts before they go into effect.

3. Unless we get the government out of this business we will incur $30 to $50 billion in government expenditures over the next 20 to 30 years and we will be in a negative cash position until somewhere around the year 2, 000.

4. By getting the obligation to continue to build enrichment plants off the government's back we will be able to devote scarce resources to those areas such as safeguarding plutonium and managing nuclear wastes which really require government assistance. Issue: Highway Obligation Limitation

The Conference Report on the Department of Transportation appropriation bill contains a highway obligation limitation. The House bill contained no limitation; the Senate bill contained an obligation limitation.

Congressman McFall will offer a motion to recede and concur in the Senate position which contains an obligation limitation of $7.2B.

The Administration supports Congressman McFall's motion because:

we must control all federal program outlays including highways if we are to reach a in 1979

without a highway limitation, outlays could be as high as $1B over budget in Fiscal 1977 with another $4 to $5B in outlays in Fiscal 1978 and beyond

the House Budget Committee in the first concurrent resolution set an obligational ceiling consistent with the $7.2B figure THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON JUL 3 o 1976
