During a five week period, over 1,600 outstanding high school students will come to our nation's capital for an intensive educational program. This group represents the best and brightest of today's youth - tomorrow's leaders. The enclosed information will serve to illustrate the scope and content of our program.

I know you share our concern for educating youth for responsible citizenship and join us in promoting active involvement in the democratic process. We are a non- profit, non-partisan organization which encourages our students to consider all viewpoints as they endeavor to come to an understanding of current issues facing our nation. We certainly hope you can assist us by contributing to the balance of our program and will honor us by accepting our invitation to address the .young leaders of tomorrow during _ one of the Conference weeks this spring. _ It is our philosophy that we can be of no greater service to our country than by instilling an appreciation of our American heritage and democratic institutions in the "successor generation."
