everything I can to stop any friends
of mine from promoting me for any
political ONCE. If any one of them
is writing letters or otherwise try
ing to inspire college students or
others to organize clubs for me. they
are acting against my express de-
sires and wishes.
Justice Douglas said he considered
making q public statement to the
effect that he had no desires to
political ONCE but held of because
"any activity that has been gen.
Grated has been so slight as to be
Of no consequence, and hence 1t
might seem presumptuous on my
part to make such a statement"
Also, he added. statements of that
kind are too often taken to in
sdicAte bid for the job.
Mr., billiard said the letter was
dated April n and that Justice
Douglas advised him today that the
contents could be published be-
cause political activity in his behalf
was continuing.
Mr.. billiard said Justice Douglas

lizard wrote to the justice saying
that students for Douglas groups"
were probably embarrassing some OF
the Justices friends who are not
in 4 position to write letters to
college students" encouraging the
organization of such clubs.
