I am particularly thankful for your good report before the House of Representatives on Taiwan. Regarding my book, I am glad to learn that you think it offers some points for consideration in this stage of international developments. I feel very strongly that the Free World is courting disaster if it continues to toy with the idea of having ‘peaceful coexistence’ with international Communism. Thank you very much for speaking of me in such glowing terms. I am fully aware of the fact that I have yet to discharge my responsibility to my people, and I shall need every bit of help good friends like you can give me, Madame Chiang joins me in sending you our best wishes.” In fine condition, with some mild edge toning, as well as some light creases and wrinkles.
