My dear Mr. Mayall:
The President has requested me to ac-
knowledge your letter of May seventh and to tell
you that he is very glad that you felt free to
send him this expression of your views regarding
the Korean situation. I can assure you in all
earnestness that he is not unmindful of what it
means to you to have your son, a 2nd Lieutenant
in the First Marine Division, in Korea, and he
certainly shares your anxiety for his safety.
I think I should add that the labors
of our representatives in the Far East are un-
ceasing toward bringing this conflict to a suc-
cessful conclusion which will, of course, include
the exchange of Prisoners of War off The President,
himself, is also doing everything he possibly can
to bring peace to the world and he is deeply con-
cerned for you and all the parents of our service-
men who are called upon to share the responsibilities
which these difficult times place upon us.
Very sincerely yours,
WILLIAM D. HASSETT
Secretary to the President
Mr. James T.XMayall,
Pioneer Building,
St. Paul 1, Minnesota.
