Thank you for your very kind words of praise

intelligence to such a distinguished audience. I
will send you a copy of the transcript of my talk
as soon as it is available.
I am absolutely delighted with the bust of

anything that I would have valued more. With
many thanks and every good wish.
Faithfully,

Many thanks for your letter. I very much
enjoyed giving the distinguished members of the
Union League Club a view of the intelligence
community which is different from what the press
would have you believe.
I'm happy if I had anything to do with your
becoming a Brazil Watcher. I can't help feeling
that it is a country with a great future.
It was good to hear from you. With every
good wish.
Faithfully,
