MEMORANDUM FOR: Acting Director of Central Intelligence
FROM: George V. Lauder
Director, Public Affairs Office
SUBJECT: Invitation to Address the Chicago Committee
of the Chicago Council on Foreign Relations
1. Action Requested: Accept or decline an invitation to address the
members of t e icago committee of the Chicago Council on Foreign Relations
luncheon meeting at the Chicago Club in Chicago on a mutually convenient
date. The program year runs from September through June.
2. Background: Mr. James F. Bere, Chairman and CEO of the Borg-Warner
Corporation and Chairman of the Chicago Committee, has invited you to speak to
their membership on important issues in international affairs. The suggested
format is 30 minutes of remarks followed by 20 minutes of Questions and
Answers. According to Mr. Bere, all sessions are "off-the-record." You could
expect an audience of 40 - 50 influential business, financial, academic, and
other professional leaders from Chicago and the surrounding region. Although
a publisher could be present, there will be neither working members of the
press nor foreign nationals in the audience.
The Chicago Committee's membership of approximately 570 is made up of
senior business and professional leaders from the Chicago area who are
concerned with problems confronting the United States. The Committee meets
regularly to hear distinguished US and foreign leaders as well as leading
personalities in business, the press, and academic circles discuss vital
issues affecting international relations and foreign policies. Recent
speakers have been Abba Eban, Ted Turner, Senator Richard C. Lugar,
Senator David Durenberger, Ambassador of South Africa to the US
Herbert Buekes, Chinese Finance Minister Wang Bingqian, Chairman of Fiat
Gianni Agnelli, and Assistant Secretary for European and Canadian Affairs
Rozanne L. Ridgway. (See brochure opposite for further information including
membership list.) John McMahon spoke to this group in April 1983.
The Committee is sponsored by the broader based Chicago Council on Foreign
Relations, a non-partisan organization founded in 1922 that has a membership
of approximately 15,000. The mission of the Council is to inform area
citizens of significant international issues and their bearing on American
foreign policy in the area through addresses by leading statesmen, discussion

group. Indicate your preference below and Public Affairs will make the
appropriate response.

Dear Mr. Gates:
On behalf of the Chicago Committee of the Chicago Council on Foreign
Relations, I would like to invite you to appear as a featured speaker with
the Committee during this coming year. It would be our pleasure and honor
to host you.
The Chicago Committee is composed of the most senior and influential
business, financial, academic and other professional leaders from Chicago
and the surrounding region. The Committee meets regularly with the most
prominent national and international figures to discuss important issues in
international affairs. The enclosed directory provides a sampling of recent
speakers for the Chicago Committee and a list of the current membership.
Our program features luncheon meetings, although we do have occasional
breakfast and dinner gatherings as well. Our speakers normally address the
group for thirty minutes and then respond to questions from the members.
All sessions are strictly off-the-record, allowing guests to speak with
sbsobAe ardor.
We do hope you are able to accept this invitation in principle. Our staff
will then contact your office in detail to arrange a mutually convenient
date and other particulars.
It would be an honor and a pleasure to include you in our program. We look
forward to hearing from you.
Si erely yours,
