Pibulsonggram," one page, 8.5 x 11, Presidency of the Council of Ministers, Bangkok, May 3, 1957, addressed to Ken Browne, in part: "Nothing in the world could jeopardize the age-old friendship happily existed between the United States of America and Thailand. Though there might be some instigations from our oppositions to weaken our firm policy, we never took heed nor being misled to doubt. The more they did the more our genuine cord of friendship still binds closer. I have pleasure in sending my autographed photograph herewith as requested. The size will be suitable for your desk, and I sincerely hope that it will continue to serve my sincere considerations that I have for you and the American people."
