Dear Ed: I had long talks with both Secretary Dulles and the Attorney General on this Bricker Amendment proposal.1 Like you, I hope that something can be worked out whereby we can dismiss this problem forever from our minds. I am sick unto death of the term "Bricker Amendment," but I most sincerely appreciate the effort you have made to find a ground on which all can agree. I must say that you have come closer to this seemingly impossible achievement than anyone else.2 As ever
P.S. My son John and I are just about to take off for a golf game.3
