Gettysburg, Pennsylvania RLS/dkb January 28, 1964 Dear Mr. Laval: General Eisenhower has asked me to reply to your letter of January 24th. While he would like to respond personally to your queries, the great demands on his time and his present writing chores make it impossible for him to do so. In addition, as a policy of long standing, General Eisenhower does not complete questionnaires.

Executive Assistant Mr. John Laval 7 Idlewild Lane Matawan, New Jersey The
