OK, YES, Gordon Harper gave a PDF copy to Terry Bergdahl who shared the
copy with me for the Archives, though we have no record of a prior
electronic copy.  So Thanks Terry.  Thanks everyone for the input.  Terry
also gave to Jo Nelson the full citation he used for his ICA Handbook which
Terry published as an ICA document to be shared to explain who we are and
what we do and did.

The title to the paper was as you say:
THE PEOPLE OF THE QUESTION

The precise quote was:
"what it means to be man"

An earlier remark goes:
... "what it means to be "man" instead of animal"
