Dear friend Alexander:

Thank you very much for your telegram of September 19 on behalf of
the Executive Committee of the Housing Resources Committee regarding
the requirement in the Independent Offices Appropriations bill for
a five percent equity investment by nonprofit sponsors of rent
supplement programs,

Your thoughtfulness in bringing to my attention your opposition to
this requirement is appreciated and I have carefully noted the same.

As I am sure you are aware, the Independent Offices Appropriations
bill is presently being considered on the floor of the Senate. When
this particular provision is considered, your views will be of much
help to me.

I have enjoyed hearing from you and hope you will not hesitate to
call on me whenever I may serve you in any way.

With every good wish, I am

Sincerely,

Wii tea
