Dear Elaine-Liebling, it must have been born in you-the
ability to see tgings with your own mind! I know very few people
who are that way, and that makes you a VERY special [person. 

My interest in the Juan Trippe background stems from experiences I've
had in attempting to find information about so many of the characters
involved in Howard's life.  Famous perople who just popped up out of
nowhere to become the most influential people in American economic
and foreign service affairs.  People like Simon Ramo, Dean
Wooldridge, Juan Tripp, Frank Gay and his Mormon Mafia Group,
Nadine Henley-can't find any meaningful information about any of them
but they all are known to have been high leaders in big business
affairs up into the 1950s.  Somehow, with persistent research, a clue
turns up now and then-oftentimes seemingly insignificant-but to the
analytical mind very important.  Jack Real's book is an example of
works that tell more in what they DON"T say than what they do.
Imagine a BEST FRIEND standing by while all of those things that he
mentioned, Howard's being subjected to virtual helplessness under
the influence of all those people who took every advantage of the
helplessness that they, themselves, had imposed on him.  And doing
nothing to stop or even hinder it...  All of them demanding a
contract that would place them in virtual control of all of the
Hughes Businesses.  Maybe these people will never be fully exposed
for what they are and what they've done..but I take my side with
those who insist that crimes be exposed and punished,

I'm so glad to have the fellowship of people like you, Elaine,
with the character to stand for what is right.

God Bless You Dear friens

Sincerely  Van
