MEMOR ANDUM FOR MR. McINTYRE
June 3, 1936
Mr. Kannee writes memo stating that Congressman Theodore A. Peyser
phoned about two things;- "First, of great importance, is that I talked
with Senator Wagner the other night regarding the situation in New York
(Governor Lehman), and the Senator thought I might talk about it to the
President. I think we ought to make an appeal (to Governor Lehman) and I would
be willing to organize a group to point out to him that the Jews have a friend
in the White House, and if he could help the President by running again, it is his duty
to his race to do so, "etc. The second thing is:- "I am coming down with that group
who are going to present the President with that Cabinet of cigers on Friday. I would
like to see the Presid ent then about this matter if I may."

Dear Mr. President,
I am forwarding to you under separate cover,
a token which I hope conveys to you my love and
appreciation for the splendid nation-wide work
that you carry on.
Sometime ago in New Orlenas, I was fortunate
enough to secure the watch fob once owned by our
former President and great American Andrew Jackson.
From President Jackson's watch fob, I have made a
miniature sword which bears the motto "Sempre
Avanta" meaning "Always Forward". To me, this is
the standard and motto of democracy which you, Mr.
President, to we of the Southland have forever
carried forward.
President Andrew Jackson in his day had a
great fight for the right on his hands. Today,
you have a greater battle to fight and with the spirit
of Sempre Avanta, you shall always win.
Always your friend,

My dear Mr. President:
It is my privilege to send
you a copy of my book, The Explosive Theory of the
Universe. It is a topic in which I think you may
11
be interested, and the work is the result of a
long investigation I have made on the subject.
While I know that you are
always busily engaged, there probably are odd
moments when you may wish to turn from the stress
of other activities and in which you may find time
to read through its pages. The book is for
occasional reading and is written for those moments
when one wishes to take perspective of the universe
in which he plays his part.
Without getting into the
abstruse involutions of mathematical formulae, you
may be interested in the accounting for the
absorption of motion, the principle of the persistence
of energy. Then, too, the accounting for the
maintenance of stellar temperatures by a resupply
of energy directly from the basic atom field is a
new theory. Again, that pure light travels in a
straight line through a pure basic atom field is
reciprocal, and not antagonistic, with the theory
of light's curvature, since the character of all
light that comes to us is necessarily modified.
Perhaps unfortunately, the
end of a cosmic cycle is too remote to be of service
in helping solve the problems of the New Tax Bill
or of the problems of corporation surplus taxes,
but I believe that you, as with myself, are
interested in a subject of this nature. I shall
be pleased to have you accept this book with
my compliments, and if, after its reading, you care
to tell me your opinion, I shall be happy to learn
he

Writes to Mr. Hassett stating that he has been ill and unable to finish the
greater details of the Texas material which he expected to have on hand in time
for the President's consideration in connection with his Texas speeches. States
that he had a small package sent to the President the last week, but was unable
to write a letter to accompany it. The package contained a gold button from
the uniform of an officer in the Navy of the Republic of Texas, and bore the
inscription "Republie of Texas" with the devices of the five-pointed star and
an anchor. This is a gift for the President. Suggests that Mr. Hassett send
the button on to the President by air mail. Asks if Mr. Hassed got the second
batch of material which he addressed directly to his attention.

Most Honored Lady:
Over a period of twenty years I have collected
and saved four and five leaf clovers, which you know
are a symbol of good luck.
I have collected over five hundret and have
pasted them around a handcolered portrait of Our
beloved President in a form of a halo.
I do firmly believe that this is the only
collection of this kind in all the world and being
an ardent and sincere admirer of Our beloved President
I would so very much like to present Him with this
collection if He would be kind enough to accept it.
I would feel very much honored, and I hope I will
not arouse His indignation with such a gift.
But I can not send it by mail as the clovers are
very fragile and I can not bring it myself, but if you would
be in NewYork as you are often I could bring it to you,
and I could trust you to take care of it, and to take it
home with you.
I am not superstitious, but I believe that it would
bring the Honored President luck in his campain.
I will close now with the sincere hope that my humble
gift will be accepted. I hope to recieve a favorable answer.

Dear Mac:
I am enclosing herewith a letter addressed
to me by the Preisdent of the College of the
City of New York, wherein he requests an appoint-
ment for Mr. William G. Downey, Jr. to present
to the President a copy of the College Year Book,
"The Target, 1936".
I would appreciate if very much if you would
send a note to President Robinson in response to
his inquiry.

Honorable Robert F. Wagner,

Dear Senator Wagner:
The students in the R.O.T.C. of the College have just
published a yearbook called "The Target, 1936. If In the book
are pictures of President Roosevelt and Secretary of War Dern.
The Editor-in-Chief, Mr. William G. Downey, Jr., is
going to Washington and wishes to present a copy of the book to
the President and to the Secretary. I would appreciate it very
much if you could arrange an appointment so that the young man
may know on what day he could be in Washington and at what time
he could have a minute for presentation. Could this be done
between the 15th and 19th of June?
With kind regards,
Faithfully,
President.
June 20, 1936
My dear Dr. Robinson:
Senator Wagner has referred to
me your letter of June tenth, requesting
that an appointment be arranged with the
President for Mr. William C. Downey, Jr.
I am awfully sorry that we can-
not comply with this request. However,
these are terribly busy days, as you know,
and I am therefore not making any personal
appointments whatsoever for the President.
Furthermore, it has been the policy since
the beginning of the Administration for
me to receive on the President's behalf
all gifts, presenting them to him with an
appropriate word of explanation.
I shall, therefore, be very glad
to receive the copy of "The Target, 1936"
from Mr. Downey at any time it is convenient
for him to come to Washington. I would
like to suggest that he defer his visit
until after the Convention as I shall prob-
ably have to be in Philadelphia the greater
part of next week.
Regretting that I cannot give you
a more favorable reply,
Sincerely yours,

QUILT TO PRESIDENT
The thrill that comes once in a

Eddie Lou Clowers, 3512 Ross Ave-
enu, Friday, when the gift she
presented to President Roosevelt
was accepted, and both the chief
7
executive and Mrs. Roosevlte shook
hands with her.
The gift was a quilt, pieced of
twenty NRA signs, put together
June 23, 1936
P

with strips of red, white and blue
broadcloth. The first she had ever
9
made, Mrs. Clowers not only pieced,
n
but quilted the coverlet. The pres-
$
entation was made when the presi-
dent stopped to unveil the Robert
E. Lee statue at Oak Lawn Park.

As a collector of Americana, as a member

who knows and loves New York, both as she is and as she

We have had a good season in Texas this year. While the weather
is slightly warm right now (which, by the way, is helpful to cotton), the
watermelons should be fairly eatable. However, I am afraid the growing of
the melons has not received very carefuly attention from the Hired Hand.
As a matter of fact, he has neglected his farm duties woefully. Most of
the time, I find him over at the Frontier Centennial trying to help Billy
Rose with his "Jumbo", "Casa Manana" and some of his other remarkable shows.
Don't ask me how I happened to find out.
The Fort Worth Frontier Celebration, by the way, has everything,
including customers. We were sure about the entertainment, but one never
knows about the customers until the time arrives. Fortunately, the much
needed and highly necessary persons (the CUSTOMERS) have shown up. You
just must find time to visit our Centennial before it closes. All the
critics and experts say "Casa Manana" and "The Last Frontier" are two of
the greatest shows ever produced in America. "Jumbo" and "The Pioneer
Palace" are equally as good.
Just a word about things in Texas. We are getting along better
than we have for many years - thanks to you. We have plenty of everything -
livestock, agriculture, oil and CHEERFULNESS. Texas is glad it belongs to
the Union, and while some of the boys and girls may not be altogether satis-
fied, they sure would feel hurt if Uncle Sam should decide to give us back
to Mexico.
Incidentally, if you will have the melons taken out of the tubs
and placed in cold storage for a few days, they will taste a lot better.
I hope you have had a good vacation. We are looking forward to
the visit of Johnnie and Franklin. Elliott and I are preparing to give them
a real reception.

They continue to find one technicality after another. As a matter of
fact, I don't think he ever intended to make the loan.

Dear Mr. President:
It is with pleasure that we take this op-
portunity of congratulating you on the successful
-
Federal Housing Administration.
We believe, as do all those interested in
the building industry, that this one Act has con-
tributed more than any other factor toward the
stimulation of business and the great building
program which is sweeping the country.
In our own way, we too are forwarding this
building movement through the medium of plans and
plan books from which the public may select a
desirable home.
Under separate cover we are sending you a
set of our new plan books which completely cover
the various types of construction as well as
incorporate homes of all sizes. We believe you
will be interested in glancing through these books
and keeping them in your files.
We would appreciate very much receiving any
comments which you care to make and are interested
in knowing whether you feel that these books meet
the public need.
We have the honor to remain,
Most respectfully yours,
CLEVELAND PUBLICATIONS,
