Putting the problem our country faces into perspective, as you did, helps our management brief our national staff on how to respond to the questions of the business com- munity which are received regularly. Since I am the incoming president of The Union League Club of New York, it has occurred to me you may be willing to address the Club at one of their luncheons, and present your views. (Senator Buckley spoke to us last month.) While you would be speaking to an audience on the same wavelength as you, I believe they too need the "ammunition" you can provide to help in their advocacy of a strong intelligence organization. I'll phone your office in the next few days, and do hope you will favorably consider this invitation. We usually are able to work out a date convenient to the speaker.

SQUASH All members interested in Squash, whether active play- ers or not, are urged to mark their calendars now for the Annual Squash Banquet on April 21. John Collopy will be the Guest of Honor. There are more than 100 en- trants in five tournaments now being played, and it is hoped that as many of the finals as possible will be played on April 21. The Squash Committee, Tournament Chairman Bob Keitel, and Pro Dick Reid, urgently request all players to check the Squash Lounge or call Dick Reid or Bob Keitel (962-2811) for their tournament assign- ments and make arrangements promptly to play their matches (or decide with their opponents on a winner by default). Mr. Joseph A. Bower, who holds Membership Num- ber 1 in the Annual List, writes from Palm Beach: Dear Mr. McCormick: I read your report to the members of the Club dated February 3, 1976. All the communications that I have received from the Club prompts happy memories of the past. If you look in the annual membership book, you will see that I have the distinct honor of having the old- est membership. I recall with pleasure the thousands of times I was in the Club enjoying the companionship of other members, and personal attention from the well trained employees. The memories prompt me to think of the following poem: When some times our feet grow weary on the rugged hills of life, The patch stretching long and dreary with trials and labor rife We pause on the upward journey, Glance backward o'er valley and glen, and sigh with an infinite longing to return and begin again.

Budd, Jr. Carl Byoir 2`, Associates, Inc. 800 Second Avenue New York, New York 10017 Dear Mr. Budd: Many thanks for your kind letter of March 18 enclosing your son Jonathan's research paper. It is a very interesting paper. There is a wealth of data on the activities of American espionage and intelligence during the Revolution and I am working to get it published as part of our Bicentennial project. I do note in the paper on page 26 the comment "To funnel off Whiskey taxes to themselves. Shades of the C.I.A.!" I can't say that I agree with this. No one has produced a shred of evidence to indicate that anyone in C.I.A. was trying to make money for himself individ- ually or for the Agency, and I repeat, despite all the innuendo, no evidence has been produced to justify the indictment of a single member of this organization. There is a lot of loose talk, but no evidence to corro- borate criminal activity as so freely bandied about. Thanks again for your thoughtfulness and if Jonathan is ever in Washington I would be glad to talk to him about U. S. intelligence.

I was much interested in some of the exploits you mentioned about George Washington's Secret Service; one or two there that my son missed in his research for the enclosed paper. Taking you at your word, I have sent along a copy of it. This was a Bicentennial project. You'll be especially interested in the epilogue, starting on page 29. If you should feel disposed to comments on it, I know Jonathan would be very pleased. Currently ~Pls at home on a Spring break (our address is: JFB/kd Att. John F..

Notwithstanding the change made by the Brazil-to-Bangladesh Soviet ambassador, in our opinion you are a skilled diplomat. I thought you would enjoy the enclosed cartoon by Wright of the Miami News which helps to keep alive that great old punch line -- "shoot the dog!"

I very much enjoyed giving the distinguished members of the Union League Club a view of the intelligence community which is different from what the press would have you believe. I'm happy if I had anything to do with your becoming a Brazil Watcher. I can't help feeling that it is a country with a great future. It was good to hear from you. With every good wish.

I only wish that the Q and A period had been longer. w York, NY 10017 (212) 986-8653 As I mentioned at the cocktail hour, I shall always remember your briefing on Brazil when you returned from your assignment there, when I was piloting the Sneaky-Pete desk in Special Ops in ODCSOPS. That was over a decade ago, but, as a result of it, I've been a Brazil Watch- er ever since. You hooked me with your infectious enthusiasm. Within the month I shall be writing to you again, at that time in reference to a society named the ENDS OF THE EARTH. In the meantime I enclose some preliminary info about the group.

I was, in fact, so impressed with your comments that I asked your associate to make a copy of the tape for me once I saw that he was recording it. I must assure you that my absence when it was over was most reluctant and simply because I had an appointment in the U. S. courthouse in Foley Square at 2:30; other- wise I would have told you personally how delighted I was to be at the Club for that occasion. With my deep regards. Leo Cherne Chairman LGEN Vernon A.
