THANK YOU, MR. GARFF. You have described me in terms more flattering and more to my liking than those used recently in a student underground newspaper during the recent Stanford sit-in. To make matters worse, the article was handed to me by my boss, Marriner Eccles, who has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, wherever he finds it. The article started off saying: "There are many Stanford trustees who might be considered imperialists but Edmund Wattis Littlefield holds the rare distinction of being president of a company engaged in domestic, as well as foreign, imperialism." It went on to accuse me of supplying fuel for nuclear submarines and atomic bombs, filling the San Francisco Bay, defacing the landscape, and otherwise committing crimes against conservation and concluded with this ringing note: "When Ed isn't at a board meeting or having dinner at the Pacific-Union Club, he helps spread the cause of global Americanism as a member of the Committee for Economic Development. So if you're interested in infiltrating the CIA, see Littlefield." I would plead that they gave me more credit than is my due. I shall not attempt here to mount a total defense but the article does contain inaccuracies, typical of which is the fact that the Committee for Economic Development is concerned with U.S. and not global problems, and dinner at The Pacific-Union Club is like having a picnic on a rainy day at Forest Lawn.
