~-2. We think that Americans everywhere, surely including non-Jews, should speak out against this un-American campaign. If the Delaney interview or a report about it appeared in any paper in your area, you are free to select either or both of the above ADL statements and release them in an appropriate local ADL leader's name. If it suits, you might want to do this in the form of a letter to the editor. There's no need to make reference to the Agnew book itself by name or otherwise. His comments are enough. For those who haven't seen it, I also enclose e copy of an article by William Safire about Agnew carried in the New York Times of May 24. Safire, is of course, a former top aide to ex-President Nixon and as he writes, a former friend of the former Vice-President. We have not been able to verify widespread reports that Mr. Agnew is a rep- resentative of either some Arab government or major Arab business organizations. He is not registered in Washington, D.C. as a foreign agent, and we would guess that he would not have failed to do so, if he were acting in that capacity. of course, it ls nevertheless possible that he had acted as a middle-man, commission salesman or some such thing in business deals between the Arabs and American com- panies, receiving his fees, commissions or whatever from the American end of the contract. in that case, he'd be an agent of the American outfit and would not be required to register as an agent of a foreign principal, Attached is a memorandum summarizing the plot of the Agnew novel and offering excerpts from some reviews, including the N.Y. Times review of May 25, 1976 by Christopher Lehmann-Haupt. AF the Enclosures
