                  LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR S. CON. RES. 4

  Mr. NELSON of Florida. Mr. President, on January 25, I submitted S. 
Con. Res. 4, and I ask unanimous consent that the letter dated November 
19, by Secretary Rumsfeld, be printed in the Record in support of this 
resolution.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:


                                     The Secretary of Defense,

                                Washington, DC, November 19, 2004.
     Hon. Bill Frist,
     Majority Leader, U.S. Senate,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Mr. Leader: The Department of Defense takes great 
     pride in its longstanding and rich tradition of support to 
     the Boy Scouts of America. Accordingly, the Department of 
     Defense supports the proposed Concurrent Resolution 
     expressing the sense of Congress that the Department of 
     Defense should continue to exercise its statutory authority 
     to support the activities of the Boy Scouts of America, in 
     particular the periodic national and world Boy Scout 
     Jamborees.
           Sincerely,
     Donald Rumsfeld.
