F: I'm calling on a somewhat unusual matter but I suspect you have an interest in it and may have some influence, and if I might I d like ;to speak up on behalf of General J. C. Myer of SAC as the next head of the Air Force. K: Jerry, Elliot made a recommendation on somebody else actually, but I'm going to hold it until we have a new Secretary. F: Okay. I've known J. C. Myer$ for 24 years, I know his career, I know him personally, and there are darn few military men that i've know what has as broad a view and as much practical, operational, past experience as he. K: Good. F: And I just want to get a good plug in for a guy that I think deserves the3 job. K: I appreciate that very much. F: Is there anything I can do down there to help the situation otherwise. K: Just give us your continued staunch support. F: Well we've been working on this matter involving that appropriation. I think we are going to get it through the committee all right. We will have a tough time on the floor Im afraid. K: Well, it would be terribly helpful. F: Well we are working on it. K: Thank you Jerry. All the best to you. F: Thank you, same to you. Bye.
