Dear Sir:
&
I am sending you under separate cover by parcel post a set
of wood carved and inlaid book ends for your personal use as my gift
to you, with the inscription thereon If The Greatest President in
American History".
I assure you that it was a labor of love and affection for
you. I devoted four months to the making of the book ends and they
consist of five kinds of wood, namely, walnut, mahogany, oak, birch
and blackwood. However, before actually starting on it, I especially
treated the balckwood for about eight months. Each book end consists
of 575 distinct pieces of wood. You will note that the theme of the
book ends are Masonic and have the various and sundry insignias of
the Craft.
X 251 2
I hope you will use it to good advantage.
With my best wishes for your continued good health, I beg
to remain,
Yours very truly,
Jarob Jacob Katz. katz

Dear Mr. President:
Enclosed herewith, you will find one of our knives
which we hope you will accept as a souvenir.
We have made 915 of these knives, from scrap mater-
ial, made entirely by hand, and have given them,
free of cost, to each man overseas from our County.
We are still working, and will continue to supply
our Boys from Pittsburg and Camp County.
We call ourselves, The Kimbell Knife Works. The
names of the workers, are: H. H. Keeling, H. B.
Hughey, Jack Hammond and Charlie Kimbell. We are
all employed, and are beyond service age, and in
our spare time are, in our small way, trying to
help bring this War to a quick conclusion.
If you will mail us the names of each of your sons,
PP73
and their respective addresses, we will be glad
to make each of them a knife.

Sir:
With time comes a stronger feeling of
approaching Victory and plans for the post-war future are,
even now, contemplated. We anticipate playing an important
role in the construction of post-war ships.
We are forwarding to you, under separate
cover, two of our 1944 Marine Tuck-Up Calendars, which dis-
plays a very nice half-tone color reproduction of the "Ship
of Tomorrow". The interiors of this ship are described and
pictured in a brochure we now have in the course of preparation.
We will be pleased to send you the brochure upon completion.
Yours for Victory,

There are several different methods to em-
ploy while enjoying or discovering this Northwest-
ern Montana, and each has its advocates.
Many claim that dude ranches have the most
to offer, with gay, informal companionship, long
pack trips through the woods and mountains, horse-
back trips into the hills. And some prefer just be-
ing lazy in these faraway corners in the glorious
mountains. Whatever it is you desire, the dude or
guest ranch can fulfill your wish.
Others prefer centrally located resorts bor-
dering the lakes, or located way back in the moun-
tains on little-fished rivers and streams. Tourist
courts, "out in the country" or in any of the towns
claim many who prefer doing just what they want.
Many of the resorts provide meals, or cabins
in which you can cook, whichever you prefer, and
individual cabins for each party.

A MEADOW LARK SINGS **
(Over K. G. E. Z.)
A meadow lark sings over K. G. E. Z.
Like a spirit of joy on the air.
She would broadcast a message of hope to a world
Over-burdened with sorrow and care;
For she sings of green meadows made fragrant
with rain;
Of springtime, and love, ever new;
Of fields grain; - sweet with clover; of bright golden
And buttercups sparkling with dew.
In her songs there's a promise of bright days to be
When the war storms have drifted away,
And a new hope is born in a world that is free
When the tyrants are silenced for aye.
SING! MEADOW LARK, SING! Till the joy of
your song
Rings out o'er the land and the sea.
And to impart each aching heart may those sweet tones

to the President, I want to assure both you and Mr.
Henry Fred Ernst Kracke that his generous thought is
very much appreciated. While the President is grate-
ful to all of those who desire to present gifts to
him, he does feel that his acceptance of them should
be limited to tokens of small intrinsic value and
that he should not accept articles of considerable
worth or gifts of handwork on which the donor has
necessarily spent a great deal of time and personal
effort. Neither does he feel that he should accept
articles that have been made at great personal sacri-
fice, Therefore, the pictures are being returned
pp79-P
under separate cover and it is suggested that perhaps
Mr. Kracke can sell them in addition to the six hun-
dred pictures to which you refer.
I am sure that Mr. Kracke will understand
that although it is not possible to accept these pic-
tures, his friendly thought is nonetheless most grati-
fying.
Very sincerely yours,
Grace G. Tully
Private Secretary

Dear Mr. President:
You remember that Mr. Hyman Bernstein represented about
three thousand deaf persons in Los Angeles during the election of
1936. There are about 7000 deaf persons here now. They are
employed at aircraft plants in Los Angeles County and I will tell
them to vote for you as president again in November.
Now I wish to tell you that Mr. Henry Fred Ernst Kracke
a deaf mute and aged about 80 and says that he wishes to present gifts
of pictures of statues of liberty, pictures of Jefferson, also
pictures of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson,
Gandhi and two pictures of yourself with banners of American
Flags and Eagle. I think that you will like them. He made them
himself and they are hand sewn. He said that your pictures were
not fitted to make faces from advertising magazines but these are
a likeness of your face.
Mr. Kracke was born in Steyerberg, Hanover, Germany on
October 30, 1863. He left Germany for U.S. on February 23, 1888
when he was 25 years old and arrived in New York City. He stayed
at Ellis Island for U.S. Immigration for two hours. He met
President Grover Cleveland at Ellis Island as his German friend
from New York City came to see him on time so he spoke to his
German friend in the German language while President listened to
him, then he asked to be allowed to enter the United States and the
president passed him to enter. He became an American citizen on
June 25th, 1900. Mr. Kracke married his deaf bride (Adele Gasaque)
in Los Angeles in June 6th, 1893. He lives in Los Angeles and has
lived here since 1893. His wife died in April 22, 1938.
Mr. Kracke has been a tailor since he was 14 years old.
He made about 600 beautiful colored patterns and designs for 8
years. When you get the packages you will have wood frames and
glasses for pictures and photographs if necessary. I am sending
you package of pictures and photograph of Mr. Henry Kracke today.
Seven pictures are worth $100.00 each and 2 banners of flags with
your pictures worth $300.00, but they cost nothing to you.
Do you know anyone who wants to buy about 600 pictures by
patteras and designs for museum at Washington, D. C.? They are

Dear Mr. President:
Being one of your admirers and having two
sons in the service of the United States Army and a
daughter who is a WAC, I am, of course, vitally in-
terested in Victory, not only over Hitler and Hiro-
hita, but in Victory for yourself and the people of
the United States, in your election in November, and
being also a Victory Gardener, I thought you would
appreciate the enclosed picture of sweet corn grown in
my garden, which surely foretells Victory in all of the
foregoing purposes.
Hoping for your and our Victory in November
and for Victory soon over the Germans and Japs. I am,
Very truly,

Dear General Watson:
Thank you very much for forwarding the

ness in you office, we are two sincere young
Chinese who knows very little formalities.
I am now giving exhibition tour in Canada
and my first exhibition is at the Art Gallery of
Toronto which is very well received by the Canad-
ian people. I have all the pubbicities I want.
My next exhibition will open at the National Gal-
lery of Canada on China Day, October 10. Then
this exhibition will go to Hamilton, Montreal,
Winnipeg, askatoon, Regina, Calgary, Edmonton,
Vancouver, and Victoria. I am coming back to the
United States next summer to exchange more ideas
with the American people.
Wishing you the best of health. Best re-

Dear President Roosevelt: is?
Thank you very much for your encouraging
letter of September 18. 1 am touring Canada with
my paintings, and at present they are exhibited
at the Art Gallery of Toronto; which is well re-
ceived by the Canadian people. The next exhibit-
ion will open on "China Day" October 10 in Ottawa
at the National Gallery of Canada. Then this ex-
hibition will go to Hamilton, Saskatoon, Regina,
Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, and Victoria. I
am coming back to the United States next summer
to exchange more ideas with your people.
I am on my own with the help of Mr. Lau
Wing Siu in giving these various exhibitions. I
have a strong feeling that if the people of the
West have more contact with the East, the two peo-
ple will understand more of each other. Although
my strength and Mr Lau's are limited, but we are
giving our best effort and have opened a road for
those of the future. May the different countries
in the years to come send similar good will tours
so as to promote a closer cultural relationships
among the countries of the world.
Since the Eagle has spread out its wings
for nearly three years, I am sure peace and right-
eousness will prevail very soon. Wishing you the
greatest success in the coming campaign.
Very sincerely yours,
Chang Kim-i
