Renfrew Director and Vice President Honorable William H. Webster Director Central Intelligence Agency Washington, D.C. 20505 Dear Bill: May 10, 1988 I was sorry to have missed you on the telephone today but did talk. to your secretary. She suggested that I put my request in writing, hence this. letter. I enclose a copy of a letter that I received which sets forth the request from the Bay Area Council. George Keller,. our Chairman and CEO, is the current chairman of the Executive Committee of the Council. As you can tell from the enclosed letter, they are most hopeful that~you will be the featured speaker at the Annual Dinner in June or July of this year. I explained to them that I thought their priorities were reversed -- they should have tried to get you as featured speaker and the President as fall- back -- but apparently this was not to be my decision. As surprisingly was the case last year, I will be out of the country for the next ,three weeks, but you can leave word with my secretary, Sylvia Rozier (Tel: (415) 894-4113) in my absence. I certainly hope you will accept and come to San Francisco and speak before the Council this year. It would be great fun for Barbara and me to see you again and get caught up. Sincerely, cc: Angelo J. Siracusa George M.

Following on our phone conversation a few moments ago, we would greatly appreciate it if you would call William Webster to in- vite him to be the featured speaker at the Council's annual dinner in June or July. As I explained, we have invited President Reagan and believe we have a fair chance of his accepting, but at this date we need to have a commitment from someone else should the President decline. The dates you can give Mr. Webster are: + Friday, June 24 Monday, July 11 Monday, July 25 Tuesday, July 12 Tuesday, July 26 Thursday, July 7 Wednesday, July 13 Wednesday, July 27 Friday, July 8 Thursday, July 14 Thursday, July 28 This would be an. evening dinner at a major San Francisco hotel. Attendance would be about 1,000 business, government and civic leaders. I am enclosing correspondence from your previous invitation. Thanks for helping us out. I hope to hear from you before you leave for Japan.
