DC . 0403 Dear Mr. Oldaker: Of what value i.s the freedom of speech? I wish to thank you for the complaint as filed by Mrs. JoAnne Soper and the Federal Election Articles as conceived by Congress and the exhibits as such. As I stated in my telc h ne conversation with Mr. Philip Kellett , strangely -- enough, . did not real i.e that a Federal Election Commission existed. Also. I advised Mr. KeL Iett that I would be willing to make a statement under oath to the L'. S, Attorney's office here in Sioux City and that office has been notified by me of my willingness. After studying the art i es as conceived by Congress, I hope that the intent of Congres was -ever' to suppress individual opini-on as is guaran- teed under the First A:wndment of the C. S. Constitution. eilereference is made to an organization or committee by the news media and others, I can assurc you it is mythical as far as I am concerned. I have never attended a meeting, organization or was T elected or appointed "v any person or persons to act as I did on behalf of Colonel Day. It was a spontaneous i.nterest that developed over a popular home town hero, who happened to be a friend that I grew up with in Sioux City. I would appreciate being advised of the Commission's findings and conclu- stun as soun as poss 11) Ie I>S guacanLteed under the equal opportunity and protection amendments, and further, to he secure in my person and the normal pursuit of happiness. If there is arv. ether way that I can help bring this matter to a speedy eonc lusion, pease- advise. ,ith kindest and best personal regards, . Since rcly Pau I .Ia ckson P.S. I would like a co'y ,f the audit of Bedell.'s and Soper's campaigns. 0 w The Sioux C((y Sunday journal, September 18, 1977-A .% Col.

Candidate/Committee Cross Index (1975-76) FEDERAL AGENCIES CHECKED: SUM'"M"ARY OF ALLEGATIONS In a September 28, 1977, notarized statement, Republican Congressional ,Qandidate Joanne Soper alleged that Republican write-in candidate George E. "Bud" Day and his committee had failed to register and file reports with 'the Commission for the June 6, 1976 primary election in the 6th Congressional District of Iowa. The write-in campaign committee had Paul Jackson as Chairman, and Kay Cutcher as Treasurer. Day, an Air Force Colonel on duty out of state, was quoted in local newspaper articles that he would run if nominated, but could not openly approve the write-in effort because of the Hatch Act. Complainant alleges that Day's campaign "was not of long duration" but included "intensive" advertising. A political newspaper ad included with the complaint listed the Committee's name but had no statement of authorization or non-authorization. Complainant also stated that ads were broadcast over the radio and television but she did not describe them further. PRELIMINARY LEGAL ANALYSIS Under 2 U. S.C. §431(b) , Day was a candidate for' nomination to Federal office if he gave his consent for others to receive contri- butions or make expenditures on his behalf. As such, Day would have been required to report under §434. Under S431(d) and (e) , the write-in Commiittee, having likely received or expended over §,4000.00, was required to register under §433 and report under §434. Since the Committee bought an advertisement which clearly ad- vocated the election of Col.. Day, it was required under §441d to indicate on the face or front of the ad whether or not it was authorized by Col. Day.
