January 9, 1933
Dear Mr. Roosevelt
May I express my heartiest congratulations on your
election to President of the United States. My reason
for delay for our best wishes at the time is due to the
fact of a broken arm and shoulder just before election
and cast only being removed a few weeks ago. This did
not keep me from leaving my bed the night of election
30 minutes before polls closed to cast my vote. While
my family were at dinner and a plot with my nurse who
called a taxi and we got out and back before we were
missed.
You may recall the symphony hall night when my brother
Wilfred E. Jacobs, Suffolle County Commander Veteran of
Foreign Wars who arranged the wonderful exercises on
Armistice night and his own idea and waited for you as
our orator for the evening. Our beloved Mayor was asked
to be chairman of the evening. The dream we had came true
and we are very proud I am a chartered member of the L. Norman
Prince Post, having served with the National War Board, Y.M.C.A.
arranging programmes for the boyes in all the cant
in
Massachusetts.
for their agent many times on a night when
4000 boys left the next day for over seas stationed at the
Commonwealth receiving Ship at Boston I sang "The Americans Come"
by Fay Foster and since then I sang every year on Armistice
Night the same numbers. The morning after the exercises at
Symphony Hall I called in the office at the hall and took a
bundle of about 500 programmes left over which the porter was g
going to throw away and I told him that we will be proud to have
these programmes because our next President of the United States
was on it and I will be proud to keep them and give them to my
post and family. Took these to my sudio and brought some to
the first meeting of the V. F. W. U. S. I have attended since
my illness and presented them to the Veterans. I would be
happy indeed to have the priviledge of attending the Inauguration
exercises and represent my post and would be proud indeed to
again sing "The Americans Come' at some of the festive exercises
of the week.
With sincere and best wishes for a successful administration and
Healthy happy New Year to you and your family.

Mr. Maurice Minton.
This transcription marks the beginning of a World Broadcasting
System library of historic utterances of famous Americans which
will be preserved for posterity in our New York studios and re-
broadcast to inspire future generations on anniversary or other
appropriate occasions, upon receipt of proper authorization.
The historic importance of such a library seems to me tremendous.
Suppose, for instance, it were possible for every school child to
hear the voice of George Washington or of Abraham Lincoln de-
livering his Gettysburg Address. The inspirational value would
be immeasurable. Naturally, this was not possible in their day
but now the perfection of electrical transcription permits such
preservation.
Therefore, I am proud that this company is able to launch such a
library and it is my desire to express my deep appreciation of
the honor you have conferred upon our organization by permitting
us to transcribe your Address. In doing so, I am, sir,
Very respectfully yours,

I remember with great pleasure a

about sea shanties and books about sea life.
I am therefore venturing to send you a copy
of a new book we are about to publish called
"Bowsprit Ashore" by one of the Bone brothers
who have been identified with books of the
sea. Knowing your interest in the subject
and in illustrations of sea life, I thought
you might find pleasure in looking it over
as a sort of relaxation in these terribly
strenuous times.
May I take this opportunity to
express as a humble citizen my appreciation
of your magnificent courage and splendid
leadership.

My dear Mr. President:-
Knowing of your interest in ships, ship
pictures and models, I am taking the liberty of sending
herewith three photographs of a model of the Flying
Cloud which I have just finished. As photographs they
leave much to be desired from an artistic standpoint,
but I judge that your interest in ships goes much deeper
than considering them as simply pretty toys and concerns
itself with their correctness of rigging and form, and as
valuable 'documents' in the perpetuation of a form of
transportation which is fast disappearing.
Although I understand the sailing of small
boats and have done some of it I have never seen but one
'square rigger' and have never been aboard of one, so that
this model is simply the result of interested study of how
they were built and rigged. I am not a model builder and
this is my first model, but I have tried conscientiously
to secure correctness in detail and to preserve as far as
possible fidelity of dimensions at the scale of 1/8" to
a foot.
As soon as the weather is warmer and better
I mean to take my model out of doors where I can get a
more even lighting and take some better photographs of
it, taking one view from rather below it so that it will
be silhouetted against an interesting sky. This will
eliminate everything of comparative scale and ought to
produce an appearance of size and reality which may be
interesting. In this case I would show the hull not
quite down to the water line, SO that the picture would
appear as if taken from a row boat looking up at the
larger ship.
Very sincerely yours,

thank God, humbly, that the outcome of the Miami affair was
no worse. May He continue to protect and shield from all
harm, you and yours!
Mrs. Roosevelt, my husband, Mr. Dooley, was very
fond of a certain walking stick made here from the woods of
the country. He had presented one to each Democratic
candidate for the Presidency, at each convention, I recall
Mr. Davis, who had a collection of sticks, telling me
afterwards how muoh he cherished the one he gave him, and
President Wilson carried his all through the League of
Nations speaking tour. I should like very much to send
Mr. Roosevelt one of these canes, in memory of Mr. Dooley's
oustom. Mr. Dooley, like Mr. Roosevelt was tall and liked
a stick a little longer than usual. If Miss Thompson will
be kind enough to send the measurement of the length of
stick Mr. Roosevelt likes, I can then give the order for
one.
I should appreciate being able to do this, very much
indeed.

RANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT graduated from Groton Academy,
in Massachusetts, from Harvard University in 1904, and from the
Columbia Law School in 1907. He was admitted to the bar and
began the practice of law in New York City.
Elected to the New York state senate in 1910, and re-elected in 1912.
Appointed assistant secretary of the navy in President Wilson's cabinet
in 1913.
Nominated for vice presidency on ticket with James M. Cox in 1920,
but was defeated.
Elected Governor of New York state in 1928, and re-elected in 1930.
Elected President of the United States November 8, 1932, in a
sweeping political revolution, by an electoral vote of 472 to 59 and
a plurality of the popular vote of approximately seven millions.
Mr. Roosevelt married Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, a niece of the late
Theodore Roosevelt, and his own distant cousin, on March 17, 1905.
They have four sons and one daughter.
The family home is the President's birthplace at Hyde Park, New York.
The landslide that carried the second Roosevelt into the White House
also resulted in giving the new President the support of a Congress
controlled by his own, the Democratic, party. This fact, combined with
the promise of co-operation from the leaders of the now minority
party, augurs well for the success of Roosevelt's administration.
Prepared in calendar form for our friends
and presented with sincere good wishes.

Your Excellency:-
Just before your election to the Presidency last year, you were
kind enough to sign a photograph for me that I had taken in the course of my work
for newspapers.
I have had a copy made into a jig-saw puzzle for the entertainment
of your grand-daughter, "Sistie" Dall, which I wish you would present to her with
the complements of my own daughter who is just her age.
A copy of a resolution passed by Independence Court,No.123,
Foresters of America, of which I am a member, also is enclosed, to show you that
hundreds of thousands of patriotic American citizens are giving you their loyal
support, and wish you God-speed in your endeavors.
Most sincerely,

Dear Mr. President:
We are today shipping to Hon. Tom Connally, United

this city, one of the prize winning hams from the Third Annual
Quality Meat Show held here on March 23 and 24, this ham to
be delivered to you personally by Senator Connally with the
compliments of Mr. Goodman.
This is a "Texas Country Cured Ham, From the South
Plains of Texas, If and herewith we are sending you a picture
of the hams and bacons exhibited at this show which we believe
shows more country cured hams and bacons than you ever saw at
one place before.
We have promoted this show for the purpose of develop-
ing the "Live-At-Home" campaign and to provide a market for the
farmers' products. The farmers of this section are getting
more money for their cured hams and bacons than they can sell
the entire hog for and, as a result of this, are making hog
raising on the South Plains of Texas pay.
We trust that you will get as much enjoyment from
eating this ham as we do in sending it to you and that conditions
may be such next March that you can accept our invitation to visit
the show at that time.

At the request of Mr. Mayhew Dodson, who owns and resides on a farm which is a prrt
of old Hermitage plantation originally owned by General Jackson, Representative
Byrns of the Hermitage district today presented President Roosevelt with a cedar
cane ## carved from a piece of cedar from one of the original buildings on the
plantation. Mr. Dodson wrote Representative Byrns: "On the back side of my
farm, near the Hermitage, I wrecked an old building and happened to notice a date
on the window which showed the house to be a hundred and eighty three years old. I
found a piece of hand dressed cedar which was part of the window sill and the thought
came to me that the President would appreciate a walking cane made from wood from
General Jackson's place.
There is a silver plate on the beautiful cane which bears the inscription "To
President Roosevelt made from house on Hermitage built about 1783. From Democrats
of Davidson County, Tennessee".
The Democrats of the Hermitage revere the memory of Andrew Jackson and regard him
as the greatest President in history. They consider President Roosevelt as his
worthy successor. One of the stalwart democrabs of the County wrote me on March
5th. "Just like Jackson. What god or goddess arranged things so that Roosevelt
would be inaugurated in the midst of closed banks and give him an opportunity that
no one but Jackson ever had and no one but a reincarnation of Jackson can handle".

Dear Mr. Roosevelt:
During the past months it has been my pleasure to use
my influence to further your interests as a nominee to the
high office to which you have been elected, as you will note
by the credentials attached hereto, and as a citizen I want
to personally extend to you my sincere congratulations and
good wishes and to also say that I am confident that you
will be one of the most successful presidents our country
has ever had; for you will be able, with the aid of our con-
gress, to so direct the affairs of the nation that We shall
be able to pass out of the low economic condition through
which we have been moving for the past several months.
On the first day of March we are placing in the high
schools of our state a beautiful picture of yourself, and
it Will be seen by thousands of our friends throughout this
entire section. We are sending herewith one of these copies
so that you may know of our friendly feeling. We consider
that the psychological effect of placing these pictures in
the various schools of our state by the day you are inaugu-
rated President of the United States will be one that your
many friends will deeply appreciate and especially school
boys and girls who would otherwise not have an opportunity
of seeing a picture of our chief executive at a time so op-
portune as this will be.
We hope you will like the idea of our placing the pic-
ture in SO many prominent places--within a few months a large
number of them will be framed and will continue to be prized
highly by schools.

Mr. President:-
I have today taken the liberty of sending you
by express three canes typical of Iowa's greatest industry.
There is also a stand so that you may have them in a handy
place.
Some appreciation should be expressed for
your efforts to bring normal living conditions back to
our people. And if we see or hear of you walking with an Iowa
cane, we will feel better about it.

no faith in schemes to raise prices of food stuffs artificially.
We have seen them fail in the past and expect to see the
present scheme fail also unless it is saved by ordinary
laws of supply and demand.
We believe that your action in placing this
country off the gold standard and allowing our currency to
seek its natural world level will result in a return of our
foreign food stuffs market. We believe that as prices rise,
business will start and people will be returned to work in
the cities. Then our domestic demand for food stuffs will
increase.
These two markets returning at the same time
will absorb our production at prices which will allow of some
profit.
So we thank you for the first step and await
with eagerness the second.

Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt,
President of the United States,

My dear Mr. President;
A few days ago I was in Boston and had the pleasure of
again meeting your son, James. He told me at the time that you
were planning a cruise into New Brunswick waters for the summer,
so that the boys might spend some time at your summer home at
Campobello.
My purpose in writing this letter is to advise that I am
desirous of sending you an Atlantic Silver salmon just as soon
as the fresh run starts in one of our best salmon streams. Your
son James intimated that you would be pleased to receive a gift
of that kind and since you honored me by accepting some moose meat
last fall I thought possibly you might further accept one of our
summer delicacies from the salmon streams of this province. If you
so desire I can have the salmon shipped to you in ice, properly
boxed, and forwarded so that it would arrive in Washington a day or
so after it was caught.
May I say to you that the people of New Brunswick are de-
lighted with the success of your administration to date and trust that
throughout the next four years your policies will prove beneficial, not
only to the people of your own country, but to the entire world.
Yours very truly,
DroDolaw

Dear Sir;-
The writer has modeled an 8 X 10 profile of President Roosevelt,
and would like to present one to him, through you. Being our Representative,
I thought it best to have you present it to him for me, if you will kindly
do so.
I have never seen President Roosevelt; was guided solely by
side view newspaper pictures, and hope I may not be judged too harshly for
the attempt. I would like to get the comments on it, and a few words of
commendation from him would mean breaking the depression for me, -a hard hit
mechanic and manufacturer.
Awaiting your advice in the matter, I remain
Yours very respectfully,
