3 white House JOHN McSHAIN I7TH & SPRING GARDEN STREETS PHILADELPHIA THE WHITE HOUSE APR 12 11 18 AM '52 April 10, 1952 RECEIVED Dear Mr. President: Your gracious hospitality yesterday on the occasion of the luncheon for the Commissioners will long be remembered by all of us fortunate to be present. While I was delighted to have you redeem your promise, I had not the faintest idea that, in addition to the luncheon, you would afford us such a delightful musicale! Believe me, I am most grateful for your kind- ness and, in particular, for the autographed place card which will be carefully put with my memoirs. I do hope that you will continue to be blessed with good health and happiness. With kind personal regards, Es The Honorable Harry S. Truman The White House Washington 25, D. C.
