Mr. Mayor, I wanted you to know two things.
One, we had a very good meeting this morning with your... Revenue sharing?
Yeah, and all your... Well, we had on revenue sharing the Conference of Mayors, the Conference of State Legislators, the Conference of the League of Cities, etc.
So I saw a lot of your friends, and they're really giving a push to it.
and uh but I was I had the meeting I thought of the work you had done and uh
What are you finding, what is the reason for it, Mayor, is that why are they disenchanted with, well, they like what we're doing on revenue sharing, I know, but are they disenchanted with the other fellow, is that it, or what?
I think mainly, at least from some of the Democrats, that they just can't buy this other program.
Your fellows, for example, are, as I recall in the old days, the mayors in California, basically, even though they have a D or an R to their name, it really means that they are nonpartisan.
Absolutely.
That's right.
We can't put our party registration on the ballot when we run.
That's right.
I know.
Oh, is that right?
Oh, yeah.
Good.
Good.
I like that.
I'd forgotten that system.
So there's one other thing as I have you.
We're celebrating.
You've had letters before.
This year is St. Andrew's Centennial Bison.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And we have struck some silver medallions against you.
And number one, I've been saving for you.
And I think if you get a photo with you and I present it, that's going to do a real good in the campaign.
When will you be in town in Washington?
Friday.
Friday.
I could do it Friday, Friday morning.
Fine.
If you just contact, would you contact Bob Haldeman when you get in there?
Sure will.
We'll do it Friday morning.
That'll be good.
We'll get a picture and that'll be fine.
I'd love to do it.
I'll inform him and we'll approve it on the schedule.
I'll hold some time.
Thank you very much.
Good to talk to you.
