Roosevelt and wife. The package contained an Ivory Cross and, thereon, a figure. This package was sent by insured mail from Mrs. Caroline Connally, who resides at 5819 Oram Street, Dallas, Texas. Mrs. Connally is a Rumanian and has resided in this country several years and is a very patriotic citizen of the United States, and is one of the President's most ardent admirers, and holds a very high esteem for him. She has not received any reply or acknowledgment and does not know whether the package went astray, or if it reached President Roosevelt. Mrs. Connally enclosed a card about the Cross and regarded it as a very sacred emblem, which was sent as a token of her friendship, and the friendship that Mr. Roosevelt, as Presi- dent of the United States, has shown toward down-trodden people of the small European nations. One of the reasons that she is SO grateful for the liberty and freedom she enjoys in this country, is that she had two brothers who were in the Rumanian Army and were killed by the Russian Army in border clashes. This was prior to the time that the Russians invaded Rumania. We would like to let her know if the package has been received and if you will let us know, it will be appreciated.

Dear Mr. Roosevelt: pp7208 That was a great speech you made in Philadelphia last night- and timely, for I myself had forgotten some of the accomplishments of your Administration. Ray Tucker's column of yesterday carried the re- mark that you "received with pained incredulity" reports of Willkie's gains. I read with pained incredulity that you could imagine that he could make enough gains between now and Kingdom Come to Its beat dullness. you His campaign is so "dated" as to be pitiful And its futility is rapidly compromising him to the low level of becoming merely the voters' choice against the third term. With this I am sending with my compliments a copy of my recent book Your Stars and Destiny. You will be interested personally in the chapter Roosevelt and America, and possibly in the chapter The Incredible Triple Coin- cidence.

The records have been distributed for use at meetings, on sound trucks, entertainments and in the home. All funds received from their use, are turned over to the Democratic Headquarters, for the Roosevelt-Wallace campaign. Because this recording has been so enthusiastically and instantaneously received, it was suggested by our local Democratic organizations that a copy be immediately for- warded to you for your pleasure and for any use in the campaign that you may deem fit and proper.
