I was glad to get your very "official" letter concerning
the nomination of Dick Helms for the Rockefeller Public
Service Award in the field of Foreign Affairs. I seem to
remember your letter of last June, but for the life of me
I cannot lay my hands on it. I don't know what has happened
to it as we usually are most careful in handling of corres-
pondence.
In any event, I will certainly be most prepared to back
up the nomination as soon as I hear from Dr. van de Velde.
The only problem is that I have already this year sent a
supporting letter in for Alex Johnson and I don't know that
you can do it for two in the same field. However, I will
certainly do everything I can as I think Dick is really entitled
to this award, which incidentally is worth considerably more
than when I got it three years ago.
I am sorry to learn from your letter that you are about
to turn in your suit and wonder what you intend to do. I
imagine return to the Army. In any case, all best wishes
for whatever you will be doing and in the hope that we will
meet very soon,
Marshall S. Carter,
Lieutenant General, USA,
Deputy Director of Central Intelligence,
Washington, D. C.
