The turn in the tide occurred about\nthe time President Green published an article by me based on this book\nin the October 1930 issue of the American Federationist. At that time\neconomists and industrialists were preaching the gospel of thrift.\nSince that time there has been a ground swell toward the gospel of\nspending.

Martin copy Dies,\nthe request that he take it to you and present it to\nme faithfully that he would do this, but I have received no\npersonally with my respectful compliments. Mr. Dies promised you\nacknowledgment from your office to date.\nthis matter if I did not feel sure you would thank me for it\nMr. President, I would not bother you with\nwhen you have read the book. Your home-town newspaper, the\nKnickerbocker Press, of Albany, N. Y., says, in part, about my book:\n\"It is one of the best books to come\noff the press. It ranks, as a departure from the\nstultifying normal of volumes on what is wrong with\nour economic system, with Guy Mallon's \"Bankers V.S.\nConsumers\", with C. H. Douglas's work, and with\nJohn Strachey's \"The Coming Struggle for Power!\nIn a final chapter the author suggests, among\nother things, that banking be a function of govern-\nment and not of private individuals\n\"If Dr. Anderson's arguments are not\nvery much to the point and a challenge to every one\nof us, then I know not the meaning of a challenge\".\nWould it be imposing on your time too much,\nMr. President, to ask that you extend me the great favor of\nrequesting Mr. Dies to deliver this book to you if he has not\ndone so already? And in any event, would it be asking too\nmuch to request that I be notified whether he has delivered it?\nThanking you very kindly for any courtesy\nyou may extend to me, I am,\nYour obedient servant,\nMontgormry D.

N. Otis in 1867 and entitled\n\"History of the Panama Rail Road\", where of course,\nreference is made to Aspinwall and where many curious data\nmay be found as to events and conditions on the Isthmus\nnearly a century ago. Remembering the delightful con-\nversation at the White House and in view of the coming\ntrip of the President to the Isthmus I have thought that\nhe might be interested in reading this book on his way\nSouth. I take the liberty, therefore, of asking you to\npresent this book to the President with my best wishes\nfor a bon voyage, and I hope he will do me the honor of\naccepting this modest token of my respect and admiration,\nWith an expression of my appreciation for your\ncourteous attention to this request, believe me, my dear\nMr. Welles,\nVery sincerely yours,\nR.

C.\nDear Miss Le Hand :\nA few days ago I became acquainted\nwith the details of what seemed to me an interesting\nstory and I thought after due deliberation that I\nmight pass it along to you.\nA woman painter who was a very dear\nfriend of my wife's mother several months ago came\nacross a photograph in the New York Times rotogravure\nsection of Sistie Dall sitting at a piano practicing\na music lession. The thing struck her as irresistibly\npaintable. She spent three months doing three oils\nfrom this photograph, two of which she discarded and\nthe third she felt did justice to the subject SO far\nas her talents permitted. Hertask was perhaps more\narduous as she is struggling against failing sight.\nIt was the intention of Mrs. Abbott\n(Elenore Abbott of Philadelphia) to send the portrait\nas a gift to the President, of whom she is a tremendous\nadmirer, but one of the art editors of the Times, who\nsaw and liked it veryumuch, asked to show it in the\nTimes window on the occasion of the President's\nbirthday. This was done. Later this art editor wanted\nMrs. Abbott to let Parents' Magazine have it for a\ncover. After obtaining consent from Mrs. Dall, she\ngave permission, with the understanding that the\noriginal be sent subsequently to the President. The\nportrait was to have appeared a S the cover for June.\nWER AUTHORITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK\n- 2 -\nMrs. Abbott told me this story and asked\nif I thought I could inquire in some way if the portrait\nwas received at the White House. She was SO eager to\nknow whether the President had seen it that I found it\nimpossible to deny her request, feeling certain you\nwould understand. I know she was very much bothered\nabout the commercial tinge that might have been given\nto the transaction with Parents' Magazine.\nOf course I am not familiar with the\nprocedure by which such things are handled at the White\nHouse. If the picture did not happen to come to your\nattention, please do not go to any trouble about it.\nI trust the President will soon be\ngranted relief from the burden he is working under and\nfind some rest and pleasure on his proposed cruise.\nBill Conklin and Jack OBrien and I just the other day\nreviewed all the adventures of the past expeditions on\nthe Barge Canal and the St. Lawrence and regretted\nthat such things could be no more, at least no more\nunder the old informal circumstances. Perhaps some\nday the President will feel an urge to see the St.\nLawrence and the rapids again, before they are all\ncluttered up with power dams and locks and such things.\nWith best wishes to you and Miss Tully\nand Gus and the others, I am\nSincerely yours,\nGeorge Gercke\nJuly 16, 1934\nMr. Office m mEntyre\nR\nMy dear Mrs. Abbott:\nIn Mrs. Roosevelt's absence\nI tam taking the liberty of acknowledging\nyour letter.

Roosevelt\nPresident of the United States\nHyde Park, New York\nMy dear Mr. Roosevelt:\nLast Sunday, September 2, I drove to Hyde Park and was permitted\nto drive to Valkill and have a chat with Gus, because of our association\nat Warm Springs. I was indeed honored by your friendly wave as we drove\naway from Valkill. Let me assure you that I shall always remember that\neventful afternoon.\nIn explanation I should say that I spent six months in 1930 and\nsix months in 1931 at Warm Springs, where I had the great honor of\nmeeting you and associating with you. Since my return to Pennsylvania,\nI have become very active in politics and at present am the Democratic\nnominee for the General Assembly from the first district of Blair County.\nMy chances for election this fall appear to be excellent and from all\nindications I believe that the next session of the State Legislature\nwill support the New Deal in every way.\nRecently I have become acquainted with a man who is a past-master\nin the art of puzzle-making, He has given me many puzzles which have\nafforded me many hours of pleasant relaxation and because of this, I\nhave taken the liberty of mailing you a number of these puzzles under\nseperate cover, The thot came to me that these puzzles might be made\nand sold at Warm Springs and that such an enterprise could easily be\nmade to provide a large sum of money for the Patients' Aid Fund, As\nthe man to whom I refer has an almost unlimited variety of puzzles, I\nbelieve that quite a business might be carried on by the National\nPatients' Committee, Most of the puzzles could be easily made by the\npatients and the work could be carried on similarly to the Craft work.\nI am certain that this plan could be developed into a means of raising\nfunds for the Foundation and that such a plan would be totally lacking\nin many of the objectional features that sometimes present themselves\nin similar endeavors. I have already written to Mr. Carpenter concerning\nthis matter and am awaiting his reply.\nIn conclusion I wish to assure you of my most sincere belief in\nthe policies of your administration and to promise my earnest support\nwhether or not I am elected this Fall. I am running on a straight\nRoosevelt, New Deal platform.\nWishing you the best of health and the greatest amount of happiness,\nI have the honor to remain,\nYour faithful servant\nWilliam M. aukerman\nWilliam M. Aukerman\nPoughkeepsie, N.
