I assure you we shall continue to try for answers to the problems you outlined. Certainly the narcotics threat to our young people cannot be tolerated. A study regarding tuition is now being made & I have hopes it will result in a reconsideration of this subject without the emotional sound & fury." Handsomely double-matted and framed with a portrait to an overall size of 17.75 x 15. In fine condition.
