I trust you will pardon\nmy formality in doing so. I hope some day every school in America will\nhave one of these in a suitable place.\nI have & little suggestion to make. I realize you get plenty of\nthem all day. I think the Work's Relief Bill, the unemployment insurance\nbill and old agespension plans and all other plans along these lines are\nfine but I think that what is needed NOW is something to start the\n\"ball a rolling\" in some big way. Two years ago, the plan I have to\nsuggest would not have been appropriate. P erhaps something like it\nhas been done before but if done NOW and properly carried out, it looks\nlike it may be the thing needed. I give it to you for what is worth.\nI suggest you call to Washington, the leaders of the ten leading industries\nin American, such as the steel, automobile, public utility, railroads,\ntextile, oil, etc. Explain to them that this is the time to get things\n\"going\". Ask them to VOLUNTARILY, as I believe the American people, on\nat the same\nthe whole, like that instead of cumpulsory, to inmediately re-employ\nwages hours Their\nsay 10% more people than they now employ I would only ask those concerns\nto do that, that made a profit in 1934. Of course, those that did not make\nemploy EES\na profit last year and want to do it anyways, all the better. of course,\nrowwork.\nif business does not pick up, they will face the extra expense of unnecessary\nlabor and the extra materials they produced. The big industries should lead\nthe way--the little ones will follow of their own accord. What a wonderful\nthing, it would be, if one of these days, a 100 leading companies in the U.S.\nlike General Electric, Ford Motor Cardo., etc. would simultaneously come out\nwith ads in the newspapers explaining th e plan and that they need 10% more\nhelp! It would be a sensation and on top of it, if you would make one of your\nfamous radio speeches, explaining that these companies VOLUNTARILY are doing\nthis and that other concerns who can afford it, should also do it! The only\nobjection I can see to it is the big concerns may feel it will be a loss.\nBut it is the only way to start the thing going again. Why not try it for a\nyear?\nI am sorry if I took up too much of your time.\nMA/MF\nSincerely yours,\n\"Keep Reordering Good Numbers\"\n\"Watch our Bulletins\"\nPa-a\nX\nMarch 12, 1935\nWE\nON\nFIN\nY\nKLE\nMy dear Mr. Howe:\nThe President has received your letter\nof March eighth and asked me to assure you of his\nappreciation of your kindness in sending the copy\nof Ray Hoyt's \"We Can Take It\", a short story of\nthe CCC to him.\nVery sincerely yours,\nx 268 x268.miscel\nXPPT\n4-B\nM.

At his request\nI am sending this token of his gratitude.\nLast September, I was called to his home in the canyon,\na one-room rock house with dirt floor, where he lives\nwith his four younger children. He was seriously ill.\nWe brought him to town, and our Emergency Relief gave him\ncare and treatment until he recovered.\nPablo Archuleta is a true New Mexican. He was born in\nTaos, New Mexico, in 1881 of Spanish-Indian parentage.\nHis people, as far back as he knows, lived in New Mexico.\nHis grandfather ran cattle on the shares for Incien B.\nMaxwell, owner of the original Maxwell Land Grant. His\nfather, while herding cattle at Taos, was attacked by\nIndians and was wounded by an arrow through his breast.\nLater he was a scout for the United States during the\nIndian Uprising.\nWhen Mr. Archuleta came to Union County in 1902 he, like\nall Mexicans went to farming and running sheep, and, like\nall Mexicans here, lost everything he had. He then began\ncutting tombstones from the native rocks in the canyon.\nHe still does this work. His tools are a common hammer,\na pocket-knife, and chisels which he makes from old sheep\nshears.\nHe said if he had the tools to work with and a plainer\npicture of you, he could have done better.\nMost respectfully yours,\net\nBudley\nMarch 29, 1935\np.p.7. qaa\nGentlemen:\nIn the absence of the President, I\nwant to thank you in his behalf for your kind\nthought in sending him a copy of the book \"In-\ncreasing Government Control in Economic Life\".\nI can assure you he will be much pleased to have\nthe volume.\nVery sincerely yours,\nM.

Roosevelt,\nPresident of the American Union,\nWhite House,\nWashington.\nVery Excellent and Honored Sir:\nI greet you most sincerely and cordially. This is to\nadvise you that there should be in the post office a small\nwooden box sent by me. The said box contains a gift of\nlittle clay figures made artistically by hand, without\nthe use of any mould other than the hand of the maker.\nThe said figures are enchanting little ones such as\nUncle Sam, glory and honor for that country. In his right\nhand he is carrying a little flag on a staff, in such a way\nthat more than half the staff is above his hand. The second\none is a legislator and scientist; the third is a letter\ncarrier. The fourth is a typical Mexican \"rough-neck\".\nThe fifth is a girl of the people - a thoroughly Mexican\ntype. And all five are very nice. There are two little\nturkeys [pabitos], separate, wrapped in a small package.\nThey are all in the little box. Much care should be taken,\nfor if the little figures are broken they must be paid\nfor.\nI offer you my humble present, Mr. President,\nbecause it really came from my heart. I like it very much.\nOnce\n-2-\nOnce more, as a humble artisan, at Calle la Palma\n38, San Pedro Tlaquepaque, Jalisco, Mexico, I remain\nin hope of receiving your commands. Pardon me if my\nlanguage is sometimes incorrect. No more for the present.\nJ.
