    The President today announced his intention to nominate Penn Kemble,

democracy abroad, as Deputy Director of the United States Information 
Agency. Mr. Kemble will serve as Deputy to Joseph Duffey, recently named 
by the President as Director of USIA.
    ``Throughout his career, Penn Kemble has worked hard to promote the 
cause of freedom abroad,'' the President said. ``I am certain he and Joe

continue pursuing that ideal.''
