Established by the Arms Control and Disarmament Act of Sept. 26, 1961
Dear John,
This is a rather belated thank you for the briefing
and the discussion which you conducted for and
myself on April 15. We are very grateful tor t e time and
effort that you and your staff gave to our education. I
could hardly have asked for a more comprehensive, lucid
and balanced statement of your work.
I feel much more confident, as a result of our visit,
of being able to respond accurately to the questions that
arise in the course of the Committee's work about our
photographic surveillance capability.
With renewed thanks for your help and your hospitality,
I remain,
Sincerely,
