COPY July 10, 1953 Mr. D. H. Jackson, President Jackson Chemical Company 6920 South Stanford Avenue Los Angeles 1, California Dear Mr. Jackson: I wish to acknowledge, on behalf of the Vice President, your letter of July 6 recom- mending the appointment of Mr. L. Mills Beam as Director of the Bureau of Mines. You may be sure the Vice President will appreciate your interest in writing to him and I know he will be glad to discuss Mr. Beam's appointment to this position with Senator Knowland and Senator Kuchel, since the appointments from California are cleared through them. I am sure that he will see also that your recommendation of Mr. Beam is brought to the attention of those who are considering the various applicants for the posi- tion of Director of the Bureau of Mines. I know the Vice President would want me to extend his best wishes to you. Sincerely yours, Robert D. Ladd Executive Secretary to the Vice President RDL:bl
