Dear
January 31, 1968
(b)(6)
I and the other defendents appreciated greatly
your message of moral support. It was actually delivered
to us while we were in the United States Courthouse in
Boston, waiting for the judge to hear our pleas of."Not
Guilty."
We were pleased to hear that our efforts to end
the war in Vietnam have been appreciated in the Soviet
Union. I myself was particularly delighted to receive,
a friendly message from colleagues in medical science.
We are not discouraged or dismayed by our govern-
ment's effort to silence us. We believe that increasing
numbers of thoughtful American people are coming to
oppose the war and that Lyndon Johnson is the one who is
becoming uneasy. We intend to continue to attack the
war. with all our energies. If we wj.n in the courts,
we will have gained a historical victory. And if we are
eventually sent to jail we will be a thorn in the side
of the Johnson administration..
Sincerely, �
(b)(6)
