Explain the difference between the statements by the President and Bo Callaway on Vice President Rockefeller. Q. I see no basic difference. What Callaway said and what the President said in a statement I read here June 16 are essentially the same --although, of course, different words are used. The wire services (AP 240 7/9 30lp. m.) reported Callaway says "he stands behind Ford's position, which is that the President would recommend Rockefeller to the GOP convention, but that Ford expects the delegates to decide who they want as their Vice Presidential candidate. 11 I believe that is a fair summary of the Callaway comments. Q. But Callaway said it will be a separate campaign? A.

  • A Condensed History of the Stone Mountain Carving
    A Condensed History of the Stone Mountain Carving Copyright © 2017 Atlanta Historical Society, Inc. Atlanta History Center 130 West Paces Ferry Road NW Atlanta, Georgia, 30305. www.atlantahistorycenter.com Executive Summary: Condensed History of the Stone Mountain Carving The carving on the side of Stone Mountain has a controversial history that involves strong connections to white supremacy, Confederate Lost Cause mythology, and anti-Civil Rights sentiments. From the beginning of efforts to create the carving in 1914, early proponents of the carving had strong connections to the Ku Klux Klan and openly supported Klan politics. Helen Plane, leader of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and credited with beginning efforts to create the initial carving, openly praised the Klan and even proposed Klansmen be incorporated in the carving. Sam Venable, owner of Stone Mountain, sanctioned Klan meetings on the mountain and remained highly involved with the group for many years. These are just a two of the early carving proponents involved with the white supremacist organization- the carver, Gutzon Borglum, and others were also involved. Given the influence of white supremacists, the Stone Mountain carving effort carried with it Confederate Lost Cause sentiments from its beginning. Efforts at rewriting Confederate history as a moral victory and pining for the supposedly morally superior society of the romanticized Old South were at the center of the motivations behind the carving. Although the carving was not again pursued after the collapse of the initial effort until half a century after it was begun, Lost Cause sentiments remained. Governor Marvin Griffin, an overt supporter of segregation, promised to resume the carving if elected during his campaign for governor.

    Scanned from the folder "Memoranda, January-March 1976" in Box 1 of the Howard Callaway Papers at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library President Ford Committee ( 1828 L STREET, N.W., SUITE 250, WASHINGTON, D.C. 20036 (202) 457-6400 March 27, 1976 MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT ~ FROM: BO CALLAWAY (;j c> SUBJECT: GENERAL CAMPAIGN EVALUATION I have prepared the following staff evaluation and general comments in the hope that it will be helpful to you and to Rog in planning for the next few months. These comme~ts are based on the assumption that your nomination will be assured prior to the Convention. Should this not happen, many of these points are still valid, as I am confident that you will receive the nomination and that plans must begin in the near future for the general election. STAFF EVALUATION - I have seen my role as administrative, as the visible campaign committee spokesman, knowledgeable in practical politics. I have not from the beginning pre­ sumed to be the political strategist for the campaign, nor the nuts and bolts director. Rather, I have. concentrated on long-range planning and on pulling a team together, making sure that all areas were working together toward the same goals. I have basically left the state strategies and organization to Stu. I believe I have pulled an excellent team together, and although I can recommend a few changes, these are minor. When at my request last September, Stu Spencer returned with me from California, we saw immediate results in the political organization, which until that time was definitely weak.
