Abstract: The memorandum to you of April 20, 1972, from Peter V. Norden and Sidney W. Hess on “Change of Slate for TIMS 1972 Election” stated, “Russell L. Ackoff, nominated as a candidate for the Office of President Elect of TIMS for the 1972--73 term ... has withdrawn his candidacy for personal reasons.” This is not true. But I can understand the reasons for explaining my withdrawal in this way. It puts the matter to rest. I withdrew because the officers of TIMS would not permit circulation of my platform for office with the ballot.Reproduced below is the relevant letter which I sent to Peter Norden after the Nominating Committee, which he chaired, was kind enough to nominate me.
