AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL

O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea.

O beautiful for pilgrim feet,
Whose stern, impassioned stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law.

O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine,
Till all success be nobleness,
And every gain divine.

O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam,
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea. Amen.

Dear Henry:

It's a swell job, in thought, organization and writing. I am proud of your part in it. To have your idea that all elements of foreign policy should be related now expressed in a great state paper is an achievement.

KISSINGER, HENRY A./D*

Dear Philip:

I really appreciated receiving your letter
of December 19, 1972. It is kind of you
to send encouragement, and to know that
you understand the problems we face.

As you probably have heard by now, I'm
off again soon for another round of talks.
I'm hoping this time we may reach an
agreement, but it is very hard at times
to anticipate the Oriental mind. At any
rate, it is good to know I have friends
routing for me all the way. I really appre-
ciate it.

My very best wishes to you and Marie Lou
for the year ahead.
