Dear Mr. Marshall:
2 want to thank you for sending me a
copy of the Resolution recently adopted by
the St . Paul City Council requesting the
Congress to provide future law enf'orcement
assistance on a direct federal-city basis .
I am, of course, most grateful for receiving
a copy of the Resolution. Although I am not
a member of the Committee where this legislation
is being actively considered at the present time,
I will certainly remain mindful of the Council' s
position when the legislation is before the Senate
for final action. I do believe that the Council' s
Resolution should be brought to the attention of
the Senate Judiciary Committee, and I am therefore
forwarding a copy of the Resolution to Senator
Eastland asking that every consideration be given
to the position held by the Council.
Thank you again for your courtesy in writing.
With warmest regards .
