You will be called upon to exercise the art\nof give and take without losing sight of principles.\nAnd, above all, you will learn that there are no\neasy answers to the enormous problems facing the\ninternational community.\nWhatever you do in the future, the knowledge you\nwill acquire through these discussions will surely\nserve you well in your relationships with other\npeople. I wish you every success.\nHarred R. Ford\nGERALD ? LIBRARY FORD"
