Washington, D. C.
Dear Allen:
Recent news stories make one feel much like
an old grad whose alma mater's name is being un-
justly sullied, and who wants desperately to rush to
her aid and to that of her president. (What these
same events make you feel is awful to contemplatel)
However ineffective an aid, this letter carries
my strong support, reiterates my admiration for you,
and expresses may earnest hope that all works out as
you would wish.
The Cuban affair created a need for a scape-
goat. What better than one that couldn't answer
back? T'm keeping my fingers crossed at the idea
that any appreciable part of the alma mater's func-
tions will be turned over to the Pentagon. This
transfer would be a great mistake - please let me
know if any of us would be helpful in building up
resistance to such an idea.
Very, best wishes.
Faithfully yours,
A
