HOME ADDRESS; alabama MOBILE, alabama ALPHONSE LUCAS SECRETARY Congress of the United States house of Representatives Washington, D. C. January 6, 1936 My dear Mr. President: Individual Knowing how the South loves you, and how you love the South, alabama 1936- and since all Alabama was disappointed that you were unable to accept our invitation on our recent hunt, Governor Bibb Graves and I wanted you and your family to have a sample of the game of Alabama and we are sending you this morning a white tailed fourteen point buck (king of our woods) that Governor Graves killed with one shot; also a turkey gobbler that I killed. Had you been there I feel sure you would have bagged at least a buck and several turkeys. In accordance with the understanding at the conference with you, Governor Graves and Col. McIntyre and myself, we are expecting to have the great pleasure of having you with us next Fall. We will guarantee that you will get not only a buck, but turkey, quail, dove, etc. The deer and turkeys we are sending you were killed forty miles north of Mobile on the Tombigbee River at McIntosh, Alabama, where Aaron Burr was captured. The deer was bagged about a quarter of a mile from the spot where the first courthouse in Alabama was built. The gobbler was called by a former slave, 94 years old, Uncle Israel Reed, who has never left the place except for short visits of a few days at a time. By living in the outdoors and the sunshine of Alabama nearly every day, this fine old darky outwalked all of the group of forty of us on the hunt, and says he wants to live long enough to call a turkey for his President. His turkey love call is so enticing that he can make any gobbler leave his flock. Sportsmen from all over the country agree that we have not only unexcelled hunting, but that our fishing grounds in the Gulf of Mexico, Mobile Bay and Perdido Bay are second to none in this world or any other place. Knowing your prowess as a fisherman, we want you to enjoy the fishing in our waters, and I feel certain you will not fail to land a tarpon. We also have other game fish of many other species. not file sent I am sending you pictures of the twenty-one deer and nineteen to turkeys bagged by the Washington hunting party, also a picture of President Roosevelt ---2 January 6, 1936 Alabama's Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo. These will give you a small idea of what you may expect when you come to Alabama next Fall, at which time there is no doubt but that you will get your buck, turkeys, quail and various other kinds of game which we have to offer in such abundance. The election will be over and you can relax preparatory to your entering upon your second term.

My dear Colonel Barney: I think it was very good of you to send me that old cane which was used by your grandfather in 2 the "Rough and Ready" campaign of 1848. I am proud and delighted to have it. Many thanks for your kind thought. Your fine report on the C. C. C. work is tremendously interesting. With much appreciation and best wishes, Very sincerely yours, STore Room Colonel J. P. Barney, Headquarters Third Corps Area, United States Army, Baltimore, Maryland. WILL >> + HEADQUARTERS THIRD CORPS AREA Sacid UNITED STATES ARMY came BALTIMORE, MARYLAND January 22, 1936. My dear Mr. President: End I am taking the liberty of sending to you, a cane that my great-grandfather, JOHN PERRINE carried during the "Rough & Ready" campaign in 1848, and which was given him by General Zachary Taylor. That slogan, which was to the voter of that day, significant of their X1322 belief that Zachary Taylor had the interest of the comman man at heart, was unquestionably a vital factor in his successful campaign. Your sponsorship of that same class also makes you the idol of the American people. I have had the honor and the opportunity to be one of the men who has been instrumental in carrying out your Civilian Conservation Corps project, as I was detailed on this duty, two hours after you signed the bill authorizing the CCC. In the Reconditioning Camp at Fort Knox, Kentucky, where all the boys from Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia and Kentucky were sent for organization and equipment, I had over one hundred and forty thousand new men go through the camp and over forty thousand men return through the camp from service in the Ninth Corps Area. During this period I have had an opportunity to observe the fine service that this great project of yours has accomplished for both the young men and the natural resources of The United States, and I can appreciate what YOUR being President has meant to the country. May my old cane do its little part toward supporting you in another successful campaign, when it will be necessary to be "Rough & Ready". With all good wishes, I am Sincerely and Respectfully, J. P. BARNEY, Colonel, Field Artillery Corps CCC Officer. The Honorable Franklin D. Roosevelt The White House Washington, D. C.

Opposition to immediate change in the existing, temporary neu- trality legislation came meanwhile from two sources. Spokesmen for the "American Friends of Italy," an organization with members in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, lodged with the Foreign Relations Committee a protest against pend- ing bills. In addition, Senator Thomas of Utah, a member of the Foreign Re- Intions Committee, has introduced a resolution proposing a one-year extension of the present Neutrality Act. This legislation embargoes shipment of arms and munitions to belligerents, but does not authorize the President to curtail shipment of other "materials of war," such as cotton and oil, as provided In pend- ing bills.

McIntyre\nand myself, we are expecting to have the great pleasure of\nhaving you with us next Fall. We will guarantee that you will\nget not only a buck, but turkey, quail, dove, etc.\nThe deer and turkeys we are sending you were killed forty miles\nnorth of Mobile on the Tombigbee River at McIntosh, Alabama,\nwhere Aaron Burr was captured. The deer was bagged about a\nquarter of a mile from the spot where the first courthouse in\nAlabama was built. The gobbler was called by a former slave,\n94 years old, Uncle Israel Reed, who has never left the place\nexcept for short visits of a few days at a time. By living in\nthe outdoors and the sunshine of Alabama nearly every day, this\nfine old darky outwalked all of the group of forty of us on the\nhunt, and says he wants to live long enough to call a turkey\nfor his President. His turkey love call is so enticing that he\ncan make any gobbler leave his flock.\nSportsmen from all over the country agree that we have not only\nunexcelled hunting, but that our fishing grounds in the Gulf of\nMexico, Mobile Bay and Perdido Bay are second to none in this\nworld or any other place. Knowing your prowess as a fisherman,\nwe want you to enjoy the fishing in our waters, and I feel\ncertain you will not fail to land a tarpon.
