his case as far as he could or wewid, and hinted in a vague sort of
my that he might bring sow tu*ter pressure upon the agency concerning
the treatment which he alleges he has rccoiwd.

pursuing any proper course of action to have his case revived, that
his return to the States had nothing to do with personal feeling, and
that his resignation from this organisation was entirely voluntary.

government employee to give ' honest opinion of his qualifications and
capabilities to any other govemsaosnt agency considering his employment,
