Our Committee is made up of responsible citizens who have no political axe to grind, and it is our hope that you will give this resolution the most thoughtful consideration. I have been instructed to send similar letters to Prime Minister John Diefenbaker, to the Minister of Defence, to Mr. Lester B. Pearson, to Mr. Hazen Argue, and to Mr. Ken More.
