ABA to Pay Haig, $20,000 for Speech SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) The American Bar Association is paying former Secretary of State Alexander Haig $20,000 nearly onethird his Cabinet salary for his first public speech following his stormy resignation. Haig will address many of the 12,000 lawyers attending the San Francisco convention this morning. "It's 20,000 times as high as last year's speaker Vice President (George) Bush," said ABA spokesman Richard Collins. Government officials are not paid for speeches.
The $20,000 is a record fee paid a speaker by the ABA. But even at that price, Haig, who made $69,630 as secretary of state, was the ABA's third choice, Collins said. The association first asked President Reagan but he declined. The second choice was George Shultz, named to succeed Haig. Shultz is not giving any speeches until October, the ABA was told.
