MSU President John Hannah writes to The Honorable George Montgomery in the House of Representatives in Lansing, MI. Ã Hannah reflects on a quote he had intended on sharing with Montgomery, in which Robert Scheer, an editor of Ramparts magazine, refers to the Viet Cong as "just men -- noble, proud, defiant, idealistic, spiteful, extremely petty, and jealous of their prerogatives..." Hannah goes on to quote a statement made by Warren Hinckle on a New York radio program, in which Hinckle implies that the Vietnam Project was "...principally involved in supplying guns and ammunition in a police-state apparatus to a man later exposed as a dictator."

Letter from Ray H. Bixler to John A. Hannah, April 14, 1966
Document Item Number: 6-20-1988-116-UA2-1-12_000240
Ray Bixler, Professor from the College of Arts and Sciences at University of Louisville, Kentucky, writes to MSU President Hannah, outraged by a New York Times article regarding the involvement of MSU with the CIA in Vietnam. Ã Bixler suggests that MSU provide an official statement, ensuring that they are no longer involved with the CIA. Ã Hannah, in an April 25 letter of reply, provides a copy of a statement made on April 22, but fears it may be inadequate for Bixler, and expresses his concern that Bixler accepted media allegations before awaiting an official response from the university.
