In the Matter of ) MUR 602(78) Nat West for Congress Committee ) La Gente Committee )
GENERAL COUNSEL'S REPORT
BACKGROUND
On May 15, 1978, the Reports Analysis Division
referred the Nat West for Congress Committee and the La
Gente Committee to the Office of General Counsel for their
failure to file the ten day pre-primary report required by
2 U.S.C. S434 (a) (1) (A) (i)
The Commission found reason to believe on April 28,
1978, and reasonable cause to believe on May 1, 1978, that the
Nat West for Congress Committee and the La Gente Committee were in violation of 2 U.S.C. §434(a)(I)(A)(i). Both committee's names appeared as non-filers in the Commission's publication of May 3, 1978.
EVIDENCE
The Nat West for Congress Committee and the La Gente
Committee are required by 2 U.S.C. §434(a)(1)(A)(i) to file a ten day pre-primary report. The Texas primary election was held on May 6, 1978.
On May 6, 1978, the Nat West for Congress Committee filed its ten day pre-primary report. The April 10th and ten day 0 -2- 0
pre-primary reports filed by the Nat West Committee reveal
financial activity of $2,190 in receipts and $2,186 in expenditures.
The April 10th report filed by the La Gente Committee
reveals financial activity of $2,070 in receipts and $2,000
in expenditures. The candidate, Luis A. Diaz De Leon, represents
the Raza Unida Party, a minority party. Repeated attempts
have been made to reach the La Gente Committee by telephone but neither Information in Austin, Texas, nor the Secretary of State's office has a listing for the candidate or his committee.
RECOMMENDATION
1. In view of the fact that the Nat West for Congress
Committee's aggregate receipts plus expenditures totalled under $25,000, and that the Committee did file the report, we recommend the Commission take no further action against the
Nat West for Congress Committee and close the file.
2. In view of the fact that the La Gente Committee's aggregate receipts plus expenditures totalled under $25,000, that the candidate represents a minority party, and that repeated attempts to locate the committee have failed, we recommend the Commission take no further action against the
La Gente Committee and close the file.

Ms. Trotty c(illed' in reference to the mailgram which she had just received for the 10 D y Pre-el ction report (she did noi. say which mail gram it was, i.e RTB or RC[i). She wanted . to know why the PCC would have to file if the candidate had already filed -for both reports. She said that she had called and with SOil(,rn0 Spoken concerning tilhe proper report> to be filed. That individual who Ms. Trot ty could (a woman not "identify) inforinrd Ms. Trotty that since the candidate had narked 1(.h) of the form 2, the PCC would not have to file reports also. she said thiat she had only Thus filed the candidate reports for the QI and the 10 Pre-election reports. Day I told I-Is. lrotty that I ias sorry that she had givern erronCouLs been- inforiia tion but that the PCC' had to file ii addition candidate. Thus, the to the PCC should imneditely file a Qi and a 10 Day l're-election report. I also 'nformed her thaf today the Com,iiission wold be .ma king. the determilvation for Publ ication for Te>as 10Day non-filers and even though the , PCC might be ab~le to get the reports in the rdil by midnight , that would not guarantee that the name of the PCC V.-ould not be )uLblished. She said that the PCC would file a report eithor today or to:uo;row..
