HORDES Associate Director June 11,1986 Senator Chic Hecht SH-302 Hart Senate Office Building Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Chic: I've just seen your "Dear Friend" letter of June 5 in support of Steve Symms. Frankly, I am surprised by your use of my name in the letter. It has been my consistent policy over the years not to become publicly involved in political campaigns and I am afraid that your letter may give the impression that in this instance I've departed from that policy. I know that was not your intention but I am sure you will appreciate my concern which explains the reason for this letter. 0* O - c b> C7 President, B'nai B'rith GERALD KRAFT Executive Vice-President B'nai B'rith DANIEL THURSZ President, B'nai B'rith Women DOROTHY BINSTOCK DIVISION DIRECTORS Assistant National Director Community Service ROBERT C.
