I had already received an inquiry from Mr. van de Velde
in regard to the candidacy of Dick Helms. As you probably
know, he had been up before and I had given him a strong
recommendation. I was very happy to do so this time, but
I had to say in my letter that I had already seconded Ambassador
Bruce, who has also been put up for this year's award. I said
if I could support both I should be very happy to do so, but if
not I had to abide by my earlier choice. I have not yet heard
from Mr. van de Velde what the reaction is, but you may be
sure that I will do everything I can in the circumstances to
help Dick if it does not conflict with Ambassador Bruce's
candidacy.
Many thanks for your note.
Sincerely yours,
The Honorable
W. F. Raborn,
Director of Central Intelligence,
Washington, D. C.
