MICHAEL K. DEAVER: The concept of the Manhattan Project had, to reach President Roosevelt from Alexaneer Sachsi over the heads of all of his closest nationa security and military advisors. This concept has to reach President Reagan, over the heads of the National Security Council. We have condensed 30 years study into an hour-long audio-visual briefing. Two hours is minimum to set aside. I will make the briefing available to you personally any time ofi day, evening or week end, any place you select, for you to decide if it warrants the personal attention of the President. Howard G.

My previous attempts to help President Reagan by writing to you December 31,1981, June 13,1982, and February 14,1983 failed to earn your personal attention. Time may be running out and this is one more, final, attempt. Soon it may be too late.

Hon. Michael K. Deaver The White House cc: Mr. Larry Speakes Assistant to the President Dear Michael K. Deaver: Press Affairs A war is not lost on the battlefield. It is lost long in advance in the mind of one person, the Commander-in-Chief .•• the Napoleon, the Hitler, the President of the United States totally unfamiliar with the character and magnitude of approaching world chaos, waiting for the National Security Council Staff to bring him the right script. With Judge William P. Clark, a man of vast integrity and loyalty to the President, completely unfamiliar with the utter complexity of the global crisis, no creative concepts have eeen able to reach the mind of President Reagan.

Eleanor Roosevelt cautioned my late wife Harriet and me that breakthrough strategic power concepts can never move upwards in a political chain-of-command, and that the concept of the Manhattan Project had to reach President Roosevelt over the heads of all of his closest national security, military and foreign affairs advisors. That is why I have tried to break through to you, with conclusions from our thirty year new-depth study of the endless cycle of WAR-PEACE-WAR-PEACE-WAR-PEACE-WAR which has plagued all human history, and once again is epidemic and threatening the future of humankind.

At Pearl Harbor Japan illustrated that a nation ( the U.S.) threatened by foreign military power1 in its anxiety willingly turns itself over to an authoritarian leader(Roosevelt) and willingly suffers and sacrifices to follow his leadership. Every U.S. initiative developed by the National Security Council for a generation for Presidential action has further threatened the Soviet people, causing them te turn themselves over more completely to their leader in the Kremlin, and to suffer and scarifice to fight back. Every Soviet defensive expansion has increased the threat to the U.S. and has increased budgets to expand U.S. global military power. Presidential advisors in this field come mostly from financial/industrial/military interests prospering from the Kremlin expansion.

Today every new initiative by President Reagan not only threatens the Soviet people, but threatens the future of the people of all 157 nations. The President has been led by inadequate advice, into a deadly, dead-end strategic trap. In their anxiety the American people are now destroying themselves in the destructive debates among the "DIS-ARMERS" the "RE-ARMERS" and the "FREEZERS".

There are initiatives the President, personally, could take which would place him in orbit as the Great World Statesman of history. These initiatives have been blocked and killed in the National Security Council for nearly twenty years. We invested ~_r_:~,...... than thirty years and somewhat more than available resources in the study. ~·~I1 CONTRIBUTIONS DEDUCTIBLE FOR INCOME, GIFT OR ESTATE TAX PURPOSES HOWARD G.

In support of British science-future writer Arthur C. Clarke, focusing this conference on the age of "PEACE SATELLITES" enriching life for humanity ,in contrast to the threat of Space War.

Put the world back to work creating a future Global lnlorn1ation Cooperative For the first time in history it is feasible to begin developing world-sized operational and legal institutions to guard the national security,political independence and economic progress of all 157 or more nations, as air traffic control guards the safety and progress of all air planes in a cloud. Space Power is only one concrete example of the hundreds or thousands of other pro-human power initiatives now within reach,waiting only for new-dimension leadership. American, Soviet and other remote sensing military & economic intelligence satellites already can distinguish a golf ball on a green 500 miles below. They can pry into the privacy of all nations, even in the dark of night, with infrared instruments. They help predict weather and to monitor hurricanes. They made more maps of more nations last year than ware made in all previous history combined. They monitor and predict food & fibre & lumber markets everywhere to either corner world markets or to help feed a hungry world. They can locate people lost on oceans, or icecaps, or deserts. They maintain continuous intimate awareness of potential enemy military forces and movements on land or sea, or in the air or in space. Infonnation is power, and he who wins the race to control intelligence and co11111unications satellites may be well on the way toward imposing his politico-economic theologies upon all other nations. But if humanity itself can gain control of future intelligence & communications satellites,here are TWELVE sample very large scale, very long range all-nation experiments to be pioneered.

Each breakthrough experiment could be launched unilaterally by the U.S., or by the U.S.S.R., or by a coalition of 11 in-between" nations with advancing remote sensing & communications space systems. Each historic project would involve simultaneously great inventive efforts in MILITARY-TECHNICAL POLITICAL-DIPLOMATIC-LEGAL-ECONOMIC-SOCIAL- MORAL and other professions, working in multinational systems teams from all participating or competing nations. Each project could involve as many persons as the American Apollo Moon Project, employing 35,000 in NASA and 350,000 in universities and industry. The world can be put back to work pioneering Life Support Systems for Planet Earth in contrast to the arms race for powers of extermination or domination of humankind. turn over • ""-...

WHAT KIND OF FUTURE WORLD ORDER IS THE U.S.TRYING TO CREATE ? ======

For a generation no one has told us, the American people,the goal, the purpose, the long range strategic objective for which we have been required to suffer,sacrifice and die. What are the long range alternatives? FIRST ALTERNATIVE FUTURE: There will be world order within which all nations will have become political satellites under shadow of Soviet global strategic power. The people of all other nations will be in continuous rebellion against the Soviet people and their Government. The Soviet people will be pauperized to maintain world-wide military and other forces to maintain world order. This is the prospect if the President listens to the softliners, and allows the U.S. to become weak.

SECOND ALTERNATIVE FUTURE: There will be world order within which all nations will have become economic subsidiaries under shadow of American global strategic power. The people of all other nations will be in continuous rebellion against the American people and their Government. The American people will be pauperized to maintain world-wide military and other forces to maintain world order. This is the prospect if the President listens to the hardliners and "wins" the arms race.

THIRD ALTERNATIVE FUTURE: There will be a civilized world order within which the people of all nations will have found national security,independence, and progress. The people of all nations will be motivated to support these future world-sized systems and institutions by their own instinctive self-interest in security,independence and progress. These distant future world management systems will be maintained at a fraction of the present $ 400 billion dollars a year being spent on the ever-expanding arms race, thereby freeing human and natural resources for the production of food,clothing, housing, energy,clean air & water, health, education and national security for the people of the 156 or more sovereign nations. This is the prospect if the President, and Congress, release the creativity, power and character of the American people for a new generation of world statesmanship.

Our forefathers who settled America faced the future, and not the past. They created new history. They created new institutions of State Government to maintain the character and disciplines of public life. They then created far larger institutions under the Constitution of the United States to maintain the character and disciplines of national public life.

Today in growing world megacrisis is it not imperative that we the people of the United States face the future, and not the past? Is this not our opportunity to help humanity create new history? Is this not our moment for world leadership toward creating new world-sized institutions to maintain the character and disciplines of relations among nations,deserving the loyalty and support of the people of all nations?

That this will be the most complex and difficult task society ever has faced only emphasizes the magnitude of the moral imperative to make the effort.

We all have to learn to live creatively in the widst of world crisis now expanding almost beyond control. Instead of panicking and making matters worse, each action by our nation and by each individual should be directed both (1) toward defense of the United States, and (2) creative leadership toward future world systems and institutions capable of guarding the security and progress of all nations •• our enemies and our friends as well as ourselves.

Mr. Howard G. Kurtz War Control Planners, Inc. Box 19127 Washington, D. c. 20036

Dear Howard: I appreciate your letter of May 10 and I too am sorry that I had to leave,before you·had completed your audiovisual presentation. My reaction was positive on the lecture. I thought it moved faster and became , better as it went along. No doubt you have given this lecture to many groups and therefore know how to pace and adapt the presentation. It would be marvelous if hundreds and thousands or even millions of people could hear that story and see the slides. Your message is particularly timely because of .the sudden push for more expenditures and greater armament in the United States. It seems as though the Presid~nt and the Congress are both pressing for military expansion. I wish that I commanded enough credibility that I could turn our efforts to greater utilization of our technology to monitor movement toward war, visable to everyone. And thus to encourage nations to act in unity to preserve the peace rather than to arm to repel an attack from neighbor nations. As you point out, the only real hope for mankind is, build a civilized world order that makes obsolete the continuing yo yo swings of war and peace, with war becoming ever more terrible and complete. You have my best wishes and what little help I may be able to offer you.

Hon. Michael K. Deaver The White House cc: Mr. Larry Speakes Assistant to the President Dear Michael K. Deaver: Press Affairs A war is not lost on the battlefield. It is lost long in advance in the mind of one person, the Connnander-in-Chief ••• the Napoleon, the Hitler, the President of the United States totally unfamiliar with the character and magnitude of approaching world chaos, waiting for the National Security Council Staff to bring him the right script. With Judge William P. Clark, a man of vast integrity and loyalty to the President, completely unfamiliar with the utter complexity of the gloval crisis, no creative concepts have been able to reach the mind of President Reagan.

Eleanor Roosevelt cautioned my late wife Harriet and me that breakthrough strategic power concepts can never move upwards in a political chain-of-command, and that the concept of the Manhattan Project had to reach President Roosevelt over the heads of all of.his closest national security, military and foreign affairs advisors. That is why I have tried to break through to you, with conclusions from our thirty year new-depth study of the endless cycle of WAR-PEACE-WAR-PEACE-WAR-PEACE-WAR which has plagued all human history, and once again is epidemic and threatening the. future of humankind.

At Pearl Harbor Japan illustrated that a nation ( the U.S.) threatened by foreign military power,, in its anxiety willingly turns itself over to an authoritarian leader(Roosevelt) and willingly suffers and sacrifices to follow his leadership. Every U.S. initiative developed by the National Security Council for a generation for Presidential action has further threatened the Soviet people, causing them te turn themselves over more completely to their leader in the Kremlin, and to suffer and scarifice to fight back. Every Soviet defensive expansion has increased the threat to the U.S. and has increased budgets to expand U.S. global military power. Presidential advisors in this field come mostly from financial/industrial/military interests prospering from the Kremlin expansion.

In support of Strategy for Global Security Conference November 9,1982 for U.N. Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) to explore ways to help build a world community ((Dr. Harry H. Lerner, convener, 51 East 90th St., New York N.Y. 10028 USA - phone (212)289-3353 ))

In support of British science-future writer Arthur C. Clarke, focusing this conference on the age of "PEACE SATELLITES" enriching life for humanity ,in contrast to the threat of Space War.

Put the world back to work creating a future Global lnforn1ation Cooperative For the first time in history it is feasible to begin developing world-sized operational and legal institutions to guard the national security,political independence and economic progress of all 157 or more nations, as air traffic control guards the safety and progress of all air planes in a cloud. Space Power is only one concrete example of the hundreds or thousands of other pro-human power initiatives now within reach,waiting only for new-dimension leadership. American, Soviet and other remote sensing military & economic intelligence satellites already can distinguish a golf ball on a green 500 miles below. They can pry into the privacy of all nations, even in the dark of night, with infrared instruments. They help predict weather and to monitor hurricanes. They made more maps of more nations last year than were made in all previous history combined. They monitor and predict food &fibre & lumber markets everywhere to either corner world markets or to help feed a hungry world. They can locate people lost on oceans, or icecaps, or deserts. They maintain continuous intimate awareness of potential enemy military forces and movements on land or sea, or in the air or in space. Information is power, and he who wins the race to control intelligence and conmunications satellites may be well on the way toward imposing his politico-economic theologies upon all other nations. But if humanity itself can gain control of future intelligence & communications satellites,here are TWELVE sample very large scale, very long range all-nation experiments to be pioneered. GLOBAL WEATHER & CLIMATE AGENCY GLOBAL MAPPING AGENCY GLOBAL AGRICULTURE MONITORING AGENCY GLOBAL SEARCH & RESCUE AGENCY GLOBAL FOREST MONITORING AGENCY SEA,AIR & SPACE TRAFFIC CONTROL AGENCY ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION MONITORING AGENCY WAR PREVENTION & PEACEEPING INTELLIGENCE AGENCY DE-CLASSIFIED MILITARY INTELLIGENCE AGENCY GLOBAL DISASTER WATCH & WARNING AGENCY GLOBAL RESOURCE EXPLORATION AGENCY GLOBAL INFORMATION RETRIEVAL AGENCY etc.etc.etc. During the most exciting, most complex, most meaningful generation of creativity in history all experiments would be in addition to each nation's essential defense requirements. Each breakthrough experiment could be launched unilaterally by the U.S., or by the U.S.S.R., or by a coalition of "in-between" nations with advancing remote sensing & communications space systems. Each historic project would involve simultaneously great inventive efforts in MILITARY-TECHNICAL POLITICAL-DIPLOMATIC-LEGAL-ECONOMIC-SOCIAL- MORAL and other professions, working in multinational systems teams from all participating or competing nations. Each project could involve as many persons as the American Apollo Moon Project, employing 35,000 in NASA and 350,000 in universities and industry. The world can be put back to work pioneering Life Support Systems for Planet Earth in contrast to the arms race for powers of extermination or domination of humankind.

WHAT KIND OF FUTURE WORLD ORDER IS THE U.S.TRYING TO CREATE ? ======For a generation no one has told us, the American people,the goal, the purpose, the long range strategic objective for which we have been required to suffer,sacrifice and die. What are the long range alternatives? FIRST ALTERNATIVE FUTURE: There will be world order within which all nations will have become political satellites under shadow of Soviet global strategic power. The people of all other nations will be in continuous rebellion against the Soviet people and their Government. The Soviet people will be pauperized to maintain world-wide military and other forces to maintain world order. This is the prospect if the President listens to the softliners, and allows the U.S. to become weak.

That this will be the most complex and difficult task society ever has faced only emphasizes the magnitude of the moral imperative to make the effort.

We all have to learn to live creatively in the widst of world crisis now expanding almost beyond control. Instead of panicking and ma.king matters worse, each action by our nation and by each individual should be directed both (1) toward defense of the United States, and (2) creative leadership toward future world systems and institutions capable of guarding the security and progress of all nations • • our enemies and our friends as well as ourselves.

Dear Howard: I appreciate your letter of May 10 and I too am sorry that I had to leave before you had completed your audiovisual presentation. My reaction was positive on the lecture. I thought it moved faster and became better as it went along. No doubt you have given this lecture to many groups and therefore know how to pace and adapt the presentation. It would be marvelous if hundreds and thousands or even millions of people could hear that story and see the slides. Your message is particularly timely because of the sudden push for more expenditures and greater armament in the United States. It seems as though the President and the Congress are both pressing for military expansion. I wish that I commanded enough credibility that I could turn our efforts to greater utilization of our technology to monitor movement toward war, visable to everyone. And thus to encourage nations to act in unity to preserve the peace rather than to arm to repel an attack frqm neighbor nations. As you point out, the only real hope for mankind is, build a civilized world order that makes obsolete the continuing yo yo swings of war and peace, with war becoming ever more terrible and complete. You have my best wishes and what little help I may be able to offer you.

Mr. Mike Deaver; The White House, Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Sir: October 20th, 1983

As concerned Americans we look forward to a press conference by

President Reagan to learn what our government is up to, the press

oonference held on the 19th, was a real dis-appointment. We were

especially worried about the American Marines in Beirut, but we

received no definite answers just a lot of excuses that don't

even make sense.

According to the news media American involvement in Beirut is for

the security of Israel, it pays big dividends for Israel to be

anti-communist, the only trouble with that set-up, it is us tired Americans, worn out tax payers who pick up the tab. Israel got out

of Beirut leaving nothing but death and destruction and no peace

agreements.

We can understand our involvement in Central America, a good neighbor policy, but Beirut is a political crime against each and

every American regardless of whether the American Marine is my son

or the son of my neighbor and turn the mop up job in Beirut over to

Israel. Cordially, Beth Norris, Meridian Road, Niles - -

MEMO FOR DONNA BLUME r.\~ FROM: MARGIE CRAWFORD--'

Yesterday a call from Congressman George Hansen to Mike Deaver was transferred to my office. The Congressman was calling to ask Mr. Deaver's permission to use his name on a fundraiser invitation for the Congressman. The fundraiser is November 16th and the Congressman said Mr. Deaver had approve of his name on Mr. Hansen's last fundraising invitation which was Feb. 23. The Congressman stated that he has waited til the last minute (his invitations are ready for printing) because he knew Mr. Deaver had been traveling alot recently and thought there would be no problem. FYI He told me that the following individuals have agreed to be on this invitation: Sec. Regan, Block; Mr. Middendorf; Generals Graham, and Singlop and Senators Thrumond, Baker, Simms, Laxalt; Congressman Michel, Lott, VanderJagt, Craig to name some of the Members of Congress. I mentioned this to Mike McManus when he called in last evening but thought you should be aware in case Mr. Deaver or Sittmann called in and I told the Congressman we (meaning you) would be back in touch either tomorrow or the next day.

!>ear Mr. Deaver:

President Reagan could have been the man of the hour. He held in his hand the power to stop the most insidious disease on the face of the earth today, Marx ist-Leninist ideology, enhanced by the Stalin image and era. The total destruction of KAL 007 and the massacre of 269 persons by the Russians was an act of war, a con spiracy actually conceived in the United States. Asphyxiation, manipulation or deliberate tampering could be contributing factors. An investigation to uncover the plot is most important and should be conducted with that thought in mind not as a deliberate coverup. Secretary of State, George Shultz, said that it wasn't worth a war. However, everything Mr. Shultz says enhances the position of the enemy. A member of his family was not on the plane. A declaration of war by the President of the U. s. does not mean that all Communists have to be killed. Actions that should have been taken immediately were to recognize the Soviet leaders as gangsters, terrorists and assassins capable of any conspiracy including a massacre. Our air space has been violated 75 times by the Russians. Cut off all diplomatic recognition and send every Russian spy home; close down Glen Cove, San Francisco, and move them out of the u. N. Building; stop all sales of materials regardless of specified nature. To Hell with our so-called industrial giants, producers of roller bearings, high technology, heavy equipment, missiles. All flights ingoing and out going should be stopped forever, not for a day. Stop all sale of any food. One specific item that comes to mind is fishing for them which the world should be in formed about. Grain sale, which is really a joke at what they buy. Probably one of the most honest industries left, the farmer, has been betrayed.

By giving the Russians billions of dollars we are playing into the hands of the bankers who are trying to sell the U. S. taxpayer short. Slaughter in Afghan istan continues. The Syrians are being armed to kill the Jews. Cuba, with Soviet help is sending more forces to Angola to stop a gentleman who is non-Communist. Tampering still goes on to destroy South Africa, the only capitalistic bastion left on the African Continent as everybody knows that Rhodesia has been sold out by the United States. Ronald Reagan professes to be a God-fearing man as Carter and John F. Kennedy professed to be, then it is time we, a nation endowed by God, should fight with all our strength, and every individual around the world that believes in God, not matter what name HE is given, should want to destroy Communism that ad vocates and practices atheism everywhere they become entrenched. One thing the world should remember is that Communists preach peace provid,ed it is on their terms.

Dear Mr. Deaver:

Please find enclosed a copy of a letter which was sent to all members of the 98th Congress.

The Agenda project is designed to educate and inform, thereby increasing the level of citizen participation in the electoral process. Members of Congress are able to express views on subjects of their choice and can receive responses from interested citizens. The Agenda utilizes an electronic information network that is accessible to persons with home or business computers.

It is anticipated that it will be necessary to include the members of the executive branch. Therefore, we invite your comments and suggestions as to the type of information that would be relevant.

If your office should desire to access the data base please contact us for further information. /

/ I Dear : ( In May you received a letter outlining the Agenda Project. As you may recall, Agenda is a computer-based information network which is designed to serve the general public. The specific topic of interest is legislation. Thus any citizen may see what elected officials are doing in regard to a particular piece of legislation. Furthermore, citizens may express their views by leaving messages on the system for their representative's viewing.

It is our hope that, through cooperation from elected officials such as yourself, the public may become more informed with facts rather than editorialized representations of the facts.

In order to accurately establish the initial database we need your help. We need correct addresses and phone numbers and a list of your "current topics of interest" in regard to legislation. You may change this list at any time, and as often as you like. We also request a list of committees which you serve on or chair.

As a member of Congress, you may access the computer's database. Through this access you may, if you desire, update your positions. Your constituents, who have access to the system, may check your position on a given piece of legislation.

Any citizen of the United States, group of citizens or news media will upon request be given access to the database and the programs contained therein. Such access is via individual access codes which identify the user's congressional district and state or special interest group represented.

As you can see, your response is very important to the reliability of this system. If you would furnish us with correct addresses, phone numbers and your current topics of interest we will insert them immediately into the database. In regard to your current topics of interest please submit the subject and your position thereon. You may submit as many subjects as you like and the positions reflected in the database will be your own.

We look forward to hearing from you. LYN[JA JOHNSON ROBB, Honora1y President Falffdx County Council of the Arts B.t,PRARA KRES BEACH, President fa1rfax County Council of the Arts tLllAc:: :fl Mc8RIDE Chairman Fairfax Coun11 Council of the Arts

Washington, D.C. 20016 October 22, 1983 President Reagan White House Dear Sir: Hello. I believe that I have a plan which will break the deadlock in the START talks. Start. Take the first step. Unilaterally destroy one nuclear warhead. Just one and wait for the Soviet Union's response. Suggest that the Soviet Union do the same. First, the destruction of one nuclear warhead will symbollically show the United States• resolve to reduce nuclear arms. Second, the destruction of one nuclear warhead will, I believe, put the Soviet Union on the defensive. They could no longer claim to be the party more interested in arms reduction. Unless, they do, in fact respond by destroying a warhead. In which case, the United States could respond by destroying another. Third, the destruction of one nuclear warhead will put the nuclear freeze movement and the demonstrations in Europe in a bind. The United States would be the peace starter. Fourth, the destruction of one nuclear warhead comes straight from the teachings of Gandhi which he took from Jesus Christ 11 the vindication of truth is not by infliction--of-sufferirig on the opponent but on one's self". By sacrificing one nuclear warhead, we announce to the world the terrible thing that these weapons of destruction are and we say to the Russians and indeed the world join us, in our quest for peace. And, let us put an end to the arms race. ·Fifth, and finally, the destruction of one nuclear warhead is the start of nuclear arms reduction. Let us begin. By taking this bold step. I believe it would be hailed by our Allies and all of those in the world who want to see an end to the arms race. It once again re-establishes the United States as the leader of the world. Let history record that it was the United States who started the process of reducing nuclear weapons. And, let us hope that this act of destroying a nuclear warhead inspires other countries of the world to do the same. President Reagan Page Two

I would point out that you should act quickly. The Soviet Union very well might try to pull a propaganda "coup" by destroying one of its own nuclear warheads first. It would then put the United States on the defensive. And, paint the United States as a "warmonger". The President should act quickly. Take the initiative. Take the first step. Destroy one nuclear warhead and suggest to the Soviet Union that they do the same.
