My Dear Mr. President :
I am sending herewith, with my compliments
,
one of first printed copies of thesismm on the subject , 11 Battle of
New Orleans; Its Real Meaning
You may recall that several months
ago manuscript of this work was handed to you by Secretary Hull, and
that you wrote to me a. letter in reference thereto. ( Aug. 28, 1934
The Ladies Hermitage Association has had published a limited edition of
five thousand, to be put on sale at the Hermitagezz as soon as the
report shall be transmitted to the Legislature by Gov. McAllister. We
are waiting to recieve comments from the remaining member of the
Commission, Hcn. Claude G. Bowers, now Ambassador to Spain.
It is
contemplated that this exposure will result in a very early revision on
the point involved in Tennessee text books; and it is expected that
other states will follow as soon as the truth shall be understood.
Let me take occasion to express appreciation for
your gracious letter of Aug. 28th touching this work. The
letter being marked "personal" K, of course , have made no mention
of it.

My dear Mr. McIntyre:
A book in two volumes entitled "LA GRECE Son Statut
International Son Histoire Diplomatique" addressed to the
President by the author, Mr. A.-F. Frangulis, has been
received by the Department and, unless you prefer these
volumes sent to the White House, they will be placed in
the Department's Library. The Consul General in Paris
is being requested to make suitable acknowledgment on
behalf of the President.
You will recall that Mr. Frangulis, who is Permanent
Secretary General of the Academie Diplomatique Internationale
had considerable correspondence in 1933 with both the White
House and the Department of State concerning his desire to be
presented to the President, but when informed that as a Greek
citizen he must be presented by the accredited representative
of his Government in this capital, he decided to abandon his
plan of visiting the United States.

yours, x20

The memory of the most glorious time in the his-

with the trans-atlantic and American commerce life a
the ports of America, and a great deal of the old Norwegian
ships were sold to and ended their active days in the American
marine.
In grateful acknowledgement of what Your country
and its trade has been to the Norwegian sailing and our seamen,
we beg to be allowed to send You - as the first citizen of The
New World - the volumes of "Norske seilskuter" which have till
now been published for the purpose of preserving the memory of
a glorious time in which the two nations played a prominent
part.

To the President
Executive Mansion
Washington, D. C.
Mr. President:
As the industry has laid aside the mournful sack-
cloth and ashes of depression and achieved what our editor
aptly terms "the 'go ahead' state of mind," we decided months
ago that the time had come to do something that would give
tangible shape to the new spirit.
So we planned an unusual issue of THE IRON AGE. Our
editors worked like Tro jans. Our artists labored days, nights
and Sundays. We invested considerable money. Advertisers co-
operated gallantly.
You have doubtless seen the result: our 492 page
Annual Review Number of January 3, our largest issue since 1931
and in fact the largest post-depression issue of any business
paper.
We have been deluged with letters of congratulation.
What pleases us most is that the great majority of the letters
hail the Annual Number as substantial and convincing evidence of
confidence in the durable goods industry.
This same point, as you may have noticed, was brought
out in editorials in many leading newspapers.
We are frankly proud of the Annual and happy that it
accomplished its main purpose so successfully.
I hope you will accept with my compliments the spe-
cially bound copy I am sending you today for your personal use.

Sir:
The dent writer at one time was a philatelic correspondent
while Roosevelt, while he was Governor of New York and with Presi-
dency. he visited Columbus on the start of his campaign I for met presi- him
The continue president's duties, I realize, have been too great for him
vice our correspondence and thus I am writing you for your ad- to
about a certain matter.
I have a valuable and very interesting book that I'm fairly
Political Economy" and was published in 1837 by John Sherman. Sena-
tive he would be glad to acquire. The name of this book is Wayland's posi-
tor Sherman I'm sure needs no introductory mention. It is also
autographed by John Sherman personally and was once in the private
library of this great statesman. Although the book shows age it
is in good condition and what I wish to impress on you and in turn
have impressed on President Roosevelt the doctrines of Wayland of
years ago and treatment of subject matter are so profoundly paral-
lel in different respects with the problems of today that it is
almost phenomenal. In treatment with various economical laws
I quote the following, and I believe you will admit is particu-
larly impressive: (Under "Poor Laws")
bsp
"3. There should be no common funds for the support of those
who are not willing to labor.
4. That if a man be reduced, by indolence or prodigality,
to such extreme penury that he is in danger of perishing,
he be relieved, through the medium of labor; that is,
that he be furnished with work, and be remunerated with
the proceeds"
The book is vibrant with such timely solutions of our own problems
of today.
I shall be most happy to mail this book to you or to the President
with my compliments and without obligation to anyone. I have pre-
sented several items of philatelic interest to him in the past and
I only ask in return that he personally write me acnowledging receipt.

Mr. M. A. LeHand,

Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. IeHand:
Thank have you kindly for your letter of the 18th in which
advised me the President would accept the book I you
offered him "Wayland's Political Economy". This goes have for-
ward today by parcel post insured mail.
If proper interest is given this publication I'm most cer-
tain its value will be appreciated. It is a book that is
practically impossible to procure from any source today.
I sincerely hope it will be accorded this interest.
The President is indeed welcome to the book without obli-
gation, I assure you.
Becoming President does have its disadvantages to old
friends. I can recall when President Roosevelt was Gover-
nor the friendly letters we exchanged in the interest of
philately. It is practically impossible now for him to
read the thousands of letters, let alone answer them per-
sonally.
Some time, if you want to make me happy have him autograph
a photo- and mail me. And don't think in the many letters
I've received from him that I don't know his genjine auto-
graph.... and I would like that signa ture his own personal
one. If he wishes to personally acknowledge the book--
I'd be happy. If not, he is welcome anyway, with my com-

As you probably know, since the be-

the policy for me to receive on the Presi-

him with a suitable word of explanation. I
will, therefore, be glad to suit your con-
venience as to time, if this procedure meets
with the approval of the Farm Bureau.
May I suggest, however, that the presenta-
tion be made a little earlier, as it is likely
that the President may go south for a little
fishing the latter part of March, and I will
in all probability accompany him.

I am informed by the head of the

are to be held in various towns at which it will
be determined who can make the best Maple Sugar
cake in the State of Vermont.
The Farm Bureau head tells me that
they desire to have the winner present the cake to
President Roosevelt, probably about March 27th
to 29th. It is the desire that I shall accompany
the winner of the contest to the White House in
company with Mr. O'Neal, head of the American Farm
Bureau Federation.
If arrangements can be made with the
President for this meeting I am sure it will be
highly appreciated by all concerned.

It was with great regret that I read sometime ago of
your serious illness and I hope that you are now on the road to
speedy recovery. I would have written before this but felt you
were too ill to enjoy any letters. While I have not had the
pleasure of making your acquaintance I have enjoyed the correspon-
dence between us and someday I hope to meet you in person.
I have been spending some months in California with
my mother and plan to return to my home in Colofado this month.
I thought of sending you some trout but decided to wait until
you were in better condition. I have found that many times a
doctor will permit their patients to eat trout when they cannot
have anything else and very often they are more appertizing than
Received
other food. I am writing my superintendent to ship a box of
FRANTZHURST RAINBOW TROUT to the President next Wednesday so they
should arrive there Friday. I am writing so you will be sure to
sent
get some of these if you enjoy them.
I have made several trips across the Continent from
Boston to California the past three months and I still find that
President ranklin Roosevelt enjoys the confidence of the people.
I have talked and visited with many men of prominence and have
at every opportunity brought up the question of national polities.
After getting both sides started I have sat on the sidelines and
listened to their conversations. I write this because I presume
from what I have heard that there are many letters of protest sent
in to the President and I believe he enjoys getting letters of
commendation as well.
There is proably very little need of me telling you the
criticism most often encountered, namely the matter of relief and
the results which follow. If the unemployed could be given just
enough to subsist on without starving they would not be satisfied
to live without work any longer then necessary. Many however are
willing to take relief funds and live in idleness and this condition

is rapidly creating a group of indolent people in our country who
will never be willing to work. I believe the President realized
this condition when he propsed his work relief plan and I sincerely
hope it will enable him to gradually discontinue the present relief
set-up and give every able bodied man an opportunity to go to work
and earn his living.
Business men everywhere seem to be eager and willing to
put men to work but they want to know that they will be allowed
to run their own business and make a legitimate profit. I believe
the best thing that the President today could say to create confidence
and start the wheels of commerce going would be to assure business
men that they would be free to carry on without further threat from
the Government and that the work relief money would be used to help
industry re-employ men. "ith the adjournment of Congress such
a statement from our President would do more to start business
on a wave of prosperity than anything else. I express these thoughts
as the result of many conversations with men from all walks of life
from Boston to California. hose who criticize have little to offer
and I believe our President is doing every Humanely possible to
help the great mass of American citizens. Prosperity in the next
two years can only mean his continued leadership.
May I again express my sincere wishes for your rapid recovery
and that you may again be able to give your help to the man who has
so long been your faithful friend.
Very sincerely yours
Horace G. Frantz.

Fisher, Prof. Irving
New Haven, Connecticut,

Referred to the talk he and Mr. Hemphill had with the President in
regard to "100% Money", and informed the President that he is now sending
the book with that title. Stated that in view of the fact that there is
so much support of the idea, particularly by the National Monetary Con-
ference, Inc., including Father Coughlin's Union, he feels that the Pres-
ident will want to read at least Chapters I and III. For the purpose of
purchasing bonds without the odium of issuing paper currency, against
which there is a foolish prejudice, Prof. Fisher suggested ei ther the
creation of a monetary authority which could issue credit like a bank,
or Government control of the Federal Reserve Banks through the purchase
of stock. The Professor also said that he is disappointed at the slowness
of the President's monetary policies, that his plan would solve the major
political problems and ene list Father Coughlin's aid, and that the St.
Louis bankers would be glad to come to Washington to advocate the 100%
plan for Congress or the President.
