There are many developments on the national scene that I would like to talk with you about. Some of them greatly increase my already high appreciation of your statesmanship. Having men like you in public office is a great asset to a country. The next best thing, of course, is continued use of your talents in private life. It is good to know that you still serve. Best regards to Mrs. Hays. Sincerely, Clarence Mitchell Director Washington Bureau CMM/ewh
