Lithgow Osborne has suggested to me that you might be interested in our work. We want you among the 500 other distinguished American leaders who comprise the membership of our council. "Specifically. the job of the Atlantic Union Committee is to support mutualsecurity measures which can help the Atlantic community grow into a union of the West.with some form of common authority. In this way it will give the United States power to enforce peace." t Let me interpolate to say that under that common authority and common citizenship. our immigration laws would be swept away. I continue to read the letter and testimony: "Your acceptance of this invitation to join our council will mean two things: First. you will be alining yourself with leaders in the free world who believe that aggression and war can be deterred by determined. collective action. "Secondly. you will be acting on your own convictions by joining a group that is translating this theory into practice through supporting legislation moving toward union of democracies." To which I replied on April 31. as follows: "My DEAR JUDnE ROBEERS: I am glad to accept your invitation to become a member of the council of the Atlantic Union Committee. I feel. however. that I should warn you that I cannot be counted on for any work or activity in connection with the committee for the next year. owing to an antitrust litigation in which I am engaged." Judge HARLAN.
