I PUBLIC INFORMATION REQUEST FOR July 1, 1971 Dear Mr. St. John: The only letter in President Johnson's files received from you was that of November 1, 1968, to which a reply was sent by Mr. Whitney Shoemaker on November 6. As for Secretary McNamara's resignation in 1967, he had served almost seven long, hard years in one of the most demanding posts in the government. He was going forward to lead the Inte rnational Bank for Reconstruction and Development, one of the most important posts in the international community where he has served with high distinction for three and one-half years. You may find this and other of your concerns clarified in President Johnson's forthcoming book, The Vantage Point. Sincerely, (Miss) Mary Rather Secretary Mr. Anthony St. John 1715 North 16 Avenue Executive Apartment 203 Hollywood, Florida 33020 WWR:rln
