I acknowledge receipt of your letter of December 28th suggesting that representatives of the railroads and their employees undertake a conference for the purpose of endeavoring to reach a satisfactory solution of the existing controversy on the Railroad Retirement and Tax Acts.

With kindest personal regards, I am
Very sincerely yours,
