Many, many thanks for your very kind letter con-
cerning my retirement from the Committee effective
1 July of this year.
I am going to rest for a while, but I do plan
to stay in the Washington area for the next three or
four years before moving to South Carolina, where we
hope to build our retirement home.
I have thoroughly enjoyed working with you and
the other outstanding people I have known in the agency.
I think you and your staff have always given me the one
great ray of hope that we might survive all of this non-
sense that goes on in the world today.
Hope we can keep in touch.
Very sincerely,
John R. Blandford
Chief Counsel
