Dear Dr. Sitko:
As Governor Reagan is vacating his office within weeks, he is deeply involved in transition activities. For that reason he asked me to respond to your recent letter and to recommend to you that you contact John Warner, Administrator of the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration, 2401 E Street, N.W., Washington, D. C. 20276. While it is doubtful that the Bicentennial Commission is in a position to aid you directly, they probably will be able to suggest possible alternative sources.
I am sorry we are unable to h~lp you and wish you good luck with your ambitious and worthy project.
Sincerely, ·/~;_·~ ""~,~>-,,. __ _ /'?:-' ; f•"; [' ..._,

Dear Mr. Rigoni :
Due to the situation which I explained in other letters and documents, which were sent under separate cover to you, we cancelled our October conference.
We will reschedule the conference by the end of February or beginning of March 1975, subject to final notice by January 15, 1975.
We hope that Thos. Cook will make an arrangement with USTS and will, after processing their own arrangement with USTS, open the files for our work scheduled to start on November 1, 1974. If it is not possible, please advise if budgeting is possible not later than January 1, 1975.
He:r-e ~.n the United States, we will try to establisl1 a new financial basis through a fund raising drive, if at all workable under present cond~~ions.
If it would not work out, we hope to collect enough dona tions to start the conference by the end of FeP.ruary or beginning of March 1975,. followed up by the Europe~n conference by the end of April in Brussells. We feel that the amount of money spent now for the conference would not serve the purpose and we must use those monies to start a fUnd raising. drive.
Please propose an agreement between Cook and the Heritage Group Council as well as the Council for American-European Cooperation, our European branch. I hope that after signing this contract we can immediately start the work.

We are scheduling regional conferences in the United States during the month of November for the States of Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.with the cooperation of Thos. Cook (New York), Mr-.- Aristides J.

It will ~ot-hurt our arrangement for preparation of the receiving end ~d hopefully will not delay too much the arrangements in ~~ope which, of course, w~ll depend on the decision of Thos.

Dear J,Ir. Sitko:
I refer to your letter of September 25, 1974 describing your plans for the Bicentennial Travel Conference, to be held in Washington from October 23 to 27. I am taking the liberty of replying on behalf of Ambassador Volpe in his absence.
You mention the need for the cooperation of the United States Travel Service in Italy under the Ambassador's guidance. The USTS no longer operates in Italy. The Ambassador has, how ever, established a Visit USA Working Group chaired by Corrunercial Counselor Albert L. Zucca, which includes a representative of USIS as well as representatives of all airlines operating between the United States and Italy, and the offline carriers. Y~. Zucca will be glad to be of whatever assistance he can to your group and I suggest that Prof. Magnino contact him at an opportune time.

C. 20036 Dear Mr. Sitko: I appreciated the chance to talk with you Wednesday about your latest trip to Europe, and think it would be useful for all of us if I ~ecapped the USTS position: 1. The proposal of the Heritage Group Council to develop large volume ~!centennial traffic from Europe to the United States is very inter ~sting. We, however, are unable to work with private firms directly ~o we channel all our efforts through the travel industry. 2. If the Heritage Group Council deals with a travel wholesaler in France, West Germany or the United Kingdom, we would be interested in talking to that wholesaler to see if his plans for promotion of that Bicentennial program conform to our requirements, and if the wholesaler ~s interested, or qualifies, for USTS involvement. 3. Any tour development contract made by USTS is only with a travel ~ndustry member and does not include third parties. 4. By the same token, USTS does not become a party to agreements made between others (The Heritage Group Coundl and a travel wholesaler, for ~xample). If, say, USTS is mentioned in a contract of this sort then we become parties to that contract and our approval of it is required. Let me know if you have any questions. ~incerely, ~ee H.
