Vandenberg, Arthur H. many ARCNIVES 'NATIONAL RECORDS AND 1074-a January 9, 1951 Dear Arthur: I have just seen the press reports of your comment on the President's message. I assure you that I believe that the course you urge of unity and bipartisan cooperation is the only way in which we can surmount the difficulties which face us. Your statement will go far in influencing efforts in this direction. Foster has told me of his visit with you last Sunday. You are missed here more than you can know and I sincerely hope you can very soon give us us the benefits of your sound judgment and wise leadership. With all best wishes.
