Dear Mr. President:
I take pleasure in handing you with this letter an advance
copy of a brief volume entitled "Stock Market Control" summarizing
the findings and recommendations of the staff of the Twentieth Century
Fund which has recently completed its survey of the security markets.
This document is a digest of the factual research upon which was
based the program for the regulation of the security markets which I
sent to you on February 8th. It is to be released for sale to the
public on Friday, March 2nd.
I have also sent a copy to Senator Fletcher with the formal
request that he ask Mr. Alfred L. Bernheim, Director of the Security
Market Survey, to testify at the hearings of the Senate Committee on
Banking and Currency on the Fletcher-Rayburn bill.
If you care to have any more copies of the book I shall be
glad to send them to you.
Yours sincerely,
Edward A. Filene

ation and best wishes.
Very sincerely yours,

Hon. Franklin D. Roosevelt, President
of the United States of America.
Dear Mr. Roosevelt:
This is the first time I had an inclination to
write to a President of our United States and the inclination is so
strong I cannot resist.
How well the people demonstrated their appreciation
on your birthday Jan. 30th of your efforts to pull us out of the depre-
ssion, what a wonderful burst of enthusiasm.
My visionary powers are strong, there are some things
I would like to mention in this my letter to you but on second thought I
think best not, it has to do with that SO called invisible government of
the former administrations especially the last. Great Britain will not
play ball with you my boy, watch your step, it is not necessary. to ment-
ion that I am satisfied you know only too well.
I had a questionnaire sent me some time ago by the
United States Chamber of Commerce, a copy of a talk before the United
States Chamber of Commerce by the Hon Daniel C. Roper was enclosed. I
answered the questionnaire made some suggestions and stated that I
enjoyed reading your talk before the United States Chamber of Commerce,
a few hints that you do know of the doings of the former administration
by that so called invisible government and that you do appreciate the
fact that our President Franklin D. Roosevelt has a big job untangling
the mess and that he is doing everything within his power to give us a
new deal. Mr. Roper replied in person and in closing stated I have
noted with great interest your comments on my talk before the United
States Chamber of Commerce and am pleased to have your views in determ-
ining the proper functions in the Department of Commerce.
Please remember me to Mr. Roper when you see him,
tell him I am still hoping for the best.

to pieces and the high tariff walls put me out of business the depress-

MY PRAYER
Jesus our Saviour, 0 show us thy way,
Pathways so many, are leading astray;
Keep us, 0 keep us, away from the snares,
Wrecking our faith, and increasing our cares.
Paths that once led us, in childhood's glad day,
Seem to have vanished, since many a day;
Love and contentment, that once filled our hearts,
Now seem forsaken, for wealth of our marts.
Give us we pray thee, new visions of love,
Seeking thy pathways, to mansions above;
Lights that were one time, our heavenly bliss,
Grant us we pray thee, for sadly we miss.
"BE not discouraged, nor be thou misled,"
I thy GOD speaketh, the Lord our GOD said;
"Cares there are many, and grievous to bear,
I'll not forsake thee, away from my care.
Blessed Lord Jesus, 0 be with us now,
Hear our petitions, as humbly we bow;
Be thou our guardian, in all of our ways,
Love and obey thee, thru all of our days.
Grant us thy presence, to know as our guest,
And with thee share e'en, the bread thou hast blest;
When all our work here, has come to an end,
Serve thee in heaven, our Saviour and Friend.

COMFORT YE ONE ANOTHER
There are signs that all is not right,
Men ask "Watchman! what of the night?"
Evil spirits doth man decoy,
And e'en the winds and waves destroy.
As whirlwinds in the south pass thru,
So spoilers shall receive their due;
Men's hearts are failing them with fear,
Looking after that which is near.
Woe unto them that hath denied
GOD'S laws, and hath His will defied;
For retribution is at hand,
And shall be dealt in every land.
Then comfort ye one another,
Think of thy suffering brother;
For GOD hath said, "these things must be,"
Then guide him where he cannot see.
The Master came to give us light,
To guide us always in the right;
With help and strength and courage give,
That we might meek and lowly live.
He came with pow'r that men did ask,
"Who is this man that takes to task?"
Who e'en the winds obey His will,
When He said to them, - "PEACE, BE STILL."

Knowing your very great interest

Senate and the House; the three cherries on the right represent the
arteries of commerce, and the two cherries on the left hand side
represents our two forms of Government, National and State, and the
observer will find that one of these cherries is larger which shows
that the lief of our nation is stronger than any one State. Under
this structure we find the leaves representing life giving powers,
and through these leaves life breathes and the warmth and light of
a nation is shedded.
The right hand side of the back of the chair represents
the spiritual side of our nation, and the left hand side of the
back of the chair represents the material side of our nation, and
"THE ROOSEVELT CHAIR"
Mr. G. D. Fletcher, a resident of Kingsport, Sullivan
County, Tennessee, made by hand, in his furniture shop in
m
Kingsport, Tennessee, "The Roosevelt Chair", from cherry wood
taken from a tree on the Daniel Boone Trail, a part of Long Island
in the Holston Valley, and where the Cherokee Indians once camped,
and had their happy hunting ground.
This is an historical chair, and the art and craft of this
chair has its spiritual and material meaning. The bar on the top
of the back of the chair represents the Chief Executive of our
nation; the cluster of grapes under the bar represents the law
making body of the nation, the two branches of Congress, the
Senate and the House; the three cherries on the right represent the
arteries of commerce, and the two cherries on the left hand side
represents our two forms of Government, National and State, and the
observer will find that one of these cherries is larger which shows
that the lief of our nation is stronger than any one State. Under
this structure we find the leaves representing life giving powers,
and through these leaves life breathes and the warmth and light of
a nation is shedded.
The right hand side of the back of the chair represents
the spiritual side of our nation, and the left hand side of the
back of the chair represents the material side of our nation, and
these two forces are used to support and hold erect the entire
structure above.
The cross member holding together the posts which repre-
sents the material side and the spiritual side of our nation, is
shown by two fish of equal size, and these two fish represent
capital and labor, and show that either are indispensable, but
that the New Deal has placed both on an equal footing, and these
two things hold firmly the spiritual and the material sides of our
nation, and co-operate with each other to bring about unity, peace,
prosperity and happiness.
The top or seat of this chair represents light, and the
fringe and the tacks hold firmly in place the light, so that the
entire structure of Government may function for all the people, and
unless this light is kept filled with oil and trimmed SO that the
people of America may go about their tasks in light instead of
darkness, this nation will perish.
On the front of the chair under the seat, the observer will
find carved a picture of the sun with its radiant rays shooting
downward, under these rays of sunlight, rests about 123,000,000 of
people that form and make America.
Under the New Deal by the greatest President in all the
tide of time, the rays of this sun give warmth to the rich and
poor, the humble and the mighty, and draw all people together with
but one thought and one purpose, the welfare of humanity.

To the Secretary of the

White House
Washington, D. C.
Dear Sir:
Within a few days we are sending a cane to the White House
for the use of President Roosevelt.
This particular cane has no intrinsic value, but is a copy
which the writer, in the capacity of Foreign Buyer for Follmer, Clogg
& Co., had made while in Berlin, It is the exact duplicate of the cane
used by Frederick the Great,--the original of which is now in a museum
with other relics belonging to the former German Empire. Permission was
granted to have this cane duplicated and the writer imported some for
the use of crippled ladies on account of the comfortable hand grip.
If this cane is accepted by the President, well and good. If not
desirable, well and good again. In either case no acknowledgment is nec-
essary what-so-ever. We will send this cane addressed to the White House.
Yours very truly

Writes President, requesting a Presidential appointment to the Military
Academy. Encloses two letters, one from A.R. Forbush, Chief, Corres. Div., N.R.A, to
him, stating a photograph of Gen. Johnson cannot be obtained at this time, the other
letter, also addressed to Mr. Matenszczyk, is from Frederic J. Haskin, telling him
where pictures of both the President and Gen. Johnson can be obtained. He states that
the President will receive a little token, product of his own handiwork, a hand-carved
frame, at some future date. Miss LeHand wrote May 5, thanking for the NRA sokenier,

To the Honorable President of the United States,
Franklin D. Roosevelt,
Washington, D.C.
Dear Mr. President;-
Because of your recent visit to our State
I am taking the liberty of sending a copy of my little book,
Stories of the Seminoles, to your home. I hope you may find
a use for it.
It has been adopted as a supplementary
reader in the public schools of Florida and seems to give great
pleasure to children. It contains many facts never before
presented to the public.
It may interest you to know that I have
written a History of Florida for 4th grade elementary pupils.
Rand McNally would have published it last year but for the late
depression and it is now being considered by another publisher.
I have spent four years in writing, testing and revising the work
so as to have it in suitable form for children. No State in the
country has a more colorful and romantic history than Florida.
If I should succeed in having it published,
I feel that I shall owe it to your untiring efforts in restoring
hope and confidence throughout the nation.
Gratefully and respectfully yours,
Margaret C. Fairlie

Beloved Mr. President, I send you herewith enclosed a
little story, PETER THE GREAT, for your amusement aboard
the beautiful gray Houston. I know you won't have a
thing to do but amuse yourself--at least you wouldn't--
if I could help it.
I can't resist sending you this gift at this time, be-
cause by what to me is a thrilling coincidence, the story
was inspired by a visit to the magnificent ship, Houston,
while she languished in drydock in the Brooklyn Navy Yard,
all unaware of the distinction awaiting her a few years
later. Throughout the book the Houston is mentioned, and
in Chapter twenty-two the visit of my inspiration is de-
scribed in part. May you have time to read it--and may
the reading bring one smile to your lips!
This story was written with Love, for all those whose hearts
are impregnated with that power--peculiar to Christ and
children--of embracing all degrees and kinds of humanity in
a poignantly solicitous brotherhood. Surely, of all the
world, you have demonstrated the possession of this tran-
scendent power.
I enclose a short lyric. It burst out of my heart, while I
listened to the passionate truth and promise in your voice,
as your inaugural message rang its immortal challenge to the
despair which had all but destroyed us.
Because you love ships--and so do I--I send you, ON A BRETON
QUAY.
May your vacation renew you--body, spirit, brain, and great
heart, as you have renewed our dear country! God keep you
most carefully! I am very sincerely,
Maria Owens Famell

Risen--a hand
Mighty and kind--
Look up, tragic land!
Risen--my soul,

Dear Mr. Roosevelt,
As one of your successors in the presidency of the Harvard
Crimson, I received from you some years ago on several occasions such
gracious notes that I should like to add what personal support I can
to this letter.
Its purpose is to present to you the first copy
of the "Economic Handbook of the Pacific Area," the most recent pub-
lication of the Institute of Pacific Relations, for which Mr. Newton D.
Baker has written an introduction.
This Handbook is the most recent result of the international
research work carried on by the Institute of Pacific Relations for the
past seven years. Although I have signed it as editor, it is in the
fullest sense of the word an international cooperative production. We
are convinced that the wide-spread distribution of authoritative informa-
tion in this form can result only in a better informed public opinion
on the problems of the Pacific area.
The significance you have given in public statements to these
problems and your present trip to the Hawaiian Islands reinforce this
conviction.
2
I am also sending, directly to the S. S. Houston at Annapolis,
three other volumes selected from the publications of the Institute,
which might have special interest for you. * They are the most recent
copy of "Pacific Affairs;" a symposium entitled "Empire in the East;"
and a short monograph, "The American Tariff and Oriental Trade, If by
Philip G. Wright.
Although your trip is primarily a holiday, I hope that you
may have time to look at these, and that the Handbook may possibly be
of some real value to you.
