7 EAST 60TH STREET
NEW YORK, N. Y. 10022
February 2, 1973
Dear Rose:
At some convenient moment you may mention my
having received the enclosed copy of letter from
Mayor Blake Sanborn of Whittier.
In a case of this sort we must surrender senti-
mental values and embrace logical ones. The
library would never serve the purpose the Boss
has in mind if located in Whittier.
I have developed my own thoughts as to where
it should be located, and the approximate amount
of money that would be involved - the amount is
a large one.
If at some time the Boss would like to discuss
this with me personally, either in Washington or
when he happens to be in Key Biscayne, I will be
happy to do so.
Ruv
The present members of the Board are O.K. from
the standpoint of spirit and friendship, but
badly lacking in regard to the financial side

Dear Mr. President,
Among the dozens of my sketches of
you is this one of Mrs. Nixon. I send
it along to you as a small, personal
remembrance.
I haven't seen Mrs. Nixon at close
range for a number of years but would
find it difficult to believe that she
has ever looked better than she does
today. My compliments to her.
And may I add, Mr. President, that
your service to our country is sur-
passing even my excessively high ex-
pectations. I look forward to four
great and historic years and my prayers
stay with you.
with every every fond good Helly wish
Bud Juan

Dear Rosemary,
This is positively the last (*1).
Promise!
It's just that I've done so many sketches of the President
I thought I'd do one for him (*2).
Incidentally, Rosemary, the President may have his own reasons
for waiting a few more years for his own portrait but it's hard
to see what purpose is served by having Mrs. Nixon wait: She
looks absolutely wonderful.
As promised, I'm sending a few color prints (there are, of course,
dozens more) which I'd appreciate your keeping. It'd be nice to
know they were handy if the subject should come up.
This sketch of Mrs. Nixon will fit the frame on that last sketch
of the President though I'm not sure how well it would "go".
You may want to have someone shift it.
Miss Acker tells me you didn't take the time off in California
you were planning which is naughty of you. But do take care
Jeff appreciated your nice note.

*1. About your "inventory", poor girl. I've no wish to clutter
up your office. If there's no use for some of it (especially
that larger sketch of the President), please don't be shy about
saying SO. I'll stop by and carry it away next trip.
*2. I'd be happy to have him see my note (attached).
