Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Dear Sir: We appreciate very much receiving your letter. WE make glass gear-shift balls with names inserted in 102 them, and we would like for you and Mrs. Roosevelt to have one for your cars. Please advise us make and model of cars. You will recall we were in favor of the N.R.A. one hundred percent; but do not think it will be a complete success unless the automatic machine is curtailed or eliminated. For instance in the glass industry, on pressed tumblers; Automatic Machine Production: Continuos production for 24 hr. day- 30,000pcs. Wages (Estimated) $4.00 for 6hr. turn. Multiplied by 4 turns per day-$I6.00 total shop labor cost. Hand Pressed Production: To produce 30,000 pieces would require 33 turns of a listed move of 900 pieces, each turn employing three men and four boys, a total of seven people. Thirty-three turns multiplied by 7 people equals 23I people. A shop works two turns per day. The automatic machine takes the place of II5 people or I6 shops or crews. Shop cost $14.30 per turn. $14.30 per turn X 33 turns equals $472.00 total cost of producing 30,000 pcs. by hand pressed method. Consider the difference in purchasing power of the workers and the automatic machine.

If a hand method factory places a new article on the market, in a short time a machine manufacturer duplicates the article and places it on the market at less than hand method cost; concequently the hand method employees ARE WALKING THE STREETS. I and other workers (in the hot metal dept.) of the Cambridge Glass Co., Cambridge,0., Fostoria Glass CO., Moundsville, W.Va., and The Heisey Glass CO. Newark, 0. (all hand method plants) have not averaged since I929 twenty hours work per week due to the automatic machine working I68 hours per week. Hand method plants with a visible investment of $1,500,000.00 can not operate even one-third of capacity steady. To eliminate this condition the automatic machine must be cut down to 40 hours per week and the selling price of machine made glass ware must be the same as hand method glass ware to eliminate cut-throat competition. I hope you will give this matter some thought and consider- ation. We think you are on the right road to National Recovery and wish you success. Respectfully Yours, John Deyenbart November 17, 1933 My dear Mr. Degenhart: The President deeply appreciates your letter of November fourth and the offer to give him and Mrs. Roosevelt some glass gear-shift balls with names inserted in them. Mrs. Roosevelt has & car of her own - a Buick roadster.- The other automobiles are under contract yerr by year with the White House and are not owned by the Government. It would not seem appropriate, therefore, to put a gear-shift ball with the President's name on it, in any of the White House card.

The President, The White House, Washington, D. C. and 10.33 Dear Mr. President: As one who wishes you every success and one of your most loyal supporters, I am sending you my old, reliable text book on Political Economy by Arthur L. Perry, L. L. D., formerly Orrin Sage Professor of History and Political Economy in Williams College, which I studied in the eighties while attending college in Illinois and which I have re-read with profit many times since. I have tried to secure a new copy for you but it seems the work is now out of print and difficult to find, so please pardon its appearance. Professor Perry prepared this treatise before political parties, politicians and certain interests sought to mislead our youths and the people in general by writing false doctrines and text books. Though written years ago correct principles of political economy like mathematics are eternal. I am sure you will find the chapters on Money, add Money in the Unites States valuable reading at this time and if you have time some of the other chapters. The work as a whole is in harmony with Democratic principles. While I may be mistaken, I think we should not try to regulate the world price of gold, but rather strive to free it from human manipulations and let it rest on the law of supply and demand. I feel that it may easily prove a disaster and injure or defeat your New Deal plans, which plans DOUGLAS L. DUNAVAN ATTORNEY AT LAW LAKELAND, FLORIDA 2, I wish to succeed with all my heart. I am sure some of your advisors are in error when they advise that commodity prices advance with the advance of the price of gold. All history of money teaches the exact reverse. When large quantities of gold were mined in Cal ifornia in 1849 and a few yearsfollowing, the price of gold decreased and commodity prices advanced. That was also the case when large quantities of gold were mined in Australia and Alaska. As long as gold is used as money or a measure of value, that must always be the case. May I warn you to guard your health for I fear there are those who wish to overtax your strength. Respectfully and cordially yours, Douglas Lee Dunavan RESIDENCE PHONE all 7-4074 11-10 B.

And the stone that became a mountain has covered three-sevenths of the world today. These three- sevenths have need to become highly interested in values, and it is in that stone (the people) we must look for value and not in gold and silver which is soon to find no place that will do us hurt.

Roosevelt, President of the United States White House, Washington D.C. Your Excellency; I am a young man nineteen yeare of age; one of the thousands of young men who listened to your radio address to the peo- ple of the United States on October 22, 1933. In a time such as we are now passing through; a per- iod of depression, misery, strife, and pessimism, your words of cheer coming through the radio right in our own homes, is like a ray of sun- shine in a dark forest. Things are bad now, to be sure, but I hesitate to even contemplate what they would be like if you did not send the "Blue Eagle" with its sýmbols of industry and power, flying off from your desk and all over the United States. Your words have been a source of inspiration to thous- ands who otherwise would have given up in despair. When you said, on October 22, that the "Farm Credits Act", the "NR.A", and the other mesures which you have put through were "pillars in the Temple of Prosperity", I was inspired to make the cartoon that I am hereby sending to you entitled, "Uncle Sam Surveys Prosperity Temple Model". I hope that you will find as much pleasure in receiving it as I had drawing it. May God bless you and stay with you in your fight to end misery and suffering.

DODSON Bird Houses MANUFACTURED BY 162 JOSEPH H. DODSON, INC. KANKAKEE, ill. November 23, 1933 President Franklin D. Roosevelt Warm Springs, Georgia My dear Mr. President: I heard your radio speech yesterday and was pleased by the quiet way in which you admonished the knockers. Not it occured to me that perhaps you would like to have me create a bird sanctuary out of the grounds around your home there for those unfortunate children. We are driving to Miami shortly and as we go through Atlanta it would be very little out of my way to drive to Warm Springs go over the grounds, locate and stake out what would be necessary to create them into a successful bird sanctuary. Incidentally I am the only one who can do this. I go all over the country on this errand and in- variably my installations are a success. The late Edwin Gould had me create bird sanctuaries around every one of the homes he maintained for the crippled children and he wrote me that the children got more enjoy- ment out of the beautiful birds that my houses attracted than anything else he had done for them. We were the first ones in this little town to join your N R A and while it is costing us more money to run our factory we still feel very much encouraged by the outlook. Under separate cover I am enclosing you a copy of my latest catalog, "Your Bird Friends and How to Win Them."

Please advise us make and model of cars.\nYou will recall we were in favor of the N.R.A. one\nhundred percent; but do not think it will be a complete success\nunless the automatic machine is curtailed or eliminated.\nFor instance in the glass industry, on pressed tumblers;\nAutomatic Machine Production:\nContinuos production for 24 hr. day- 30,000pcs.\nWages (Estimated) $4.00 for 6hr. turn.\nMultiplied by 4 turns per day-$I6.00 total shop\nlabor cost.\nHand Pressed Production:\nTo produce 30,000 pieces would require 33 turns\nof a listed move of 900 pieces, each turn employing\nthree men and four boys, a total of seven people.\nThirty-three turns multiplied by 7 people equals\n23I people. A shop works two turns per day. The\nautomatic machine takes the place of II5 people\nor I6 shops or crews. Shop cost $14.30 per turn.\n$14.30 per turn X 33 turns equals $472.00 total\ncost of producing 30,000 pcs. by hand pressed method.\nConsider the difference in purchasing power of the workers\nand the automatic machine.\nSPECIALTIES\nDegenhart Brothers\nAUTO BEAUTY\nCANDY, SNAKE, BUTTERFLY\nWONDER KNOB\nAND LILLY WEIGHTS\nWITH YOUR NAME IN IT\nPHOTOS ALSO PUT IN WEIGHTS\nMAKERS OF THE LATEST IN GEAR-SHIFT KNOBS\n\"PATENTED\"\nFANCY PAPER WEIGHTS MADE TO ORDER\nKNOBBY KNOB\nCHANGE NAME OR PHOTO\nANY TIME\n\"PATENTED\"-\nCAMBRIDGE, OHIO,\n19\nMachines have displaced hand-pressed method on mixing bowls,\nvases, footed-tumblers, shaker-salts, candy jars, and many other\npopular articles. If a hand method factory places a new article\non the market, in a short time a machine manufacturer duplicates\nthe article and places it on the market at less than hand method\ncost; concequently the hand method employees ARE WALKING THE STREETS.\nI and other workers (in the hot metal dept.) of the Cambridge\nGlass Co., Cambridge,0., Fostoria Glass CO., Moundsville, W.Va.,\nand The Heisey Glass CO. Newark, 0. (all hand method plants) have\nnot averaged since I929 twenty hours work per week due to the\nautomatic machine working I68 hours per week. Hand method plants\nwith a visible investment of $1,500,000.00 can not operate even\none-third of capacity steady.\nTo eliminate this condition the automatic machine must be\ncut down to 40 hours per week and the selling price of machine\nmade glass ware must be the same as hand method glass ware to\neliminate cut-throat competition.\nI hope you will give this matter some thought and consider-\nation. We think you are on the right road to National Recovery\nand wish you success.\nRespectfully Yours,\nJohn Deyenbart\nNovember 17, 1933\nMy dear Mr. Degenhart:\nThe President deeply appreciates\nyour letter of November fourth and the offer\nto give him and Mrs. Roosevelt some glass\ngear-shift balls with names inserted in them.\nMrs. Roosevelt has & car of\nher own - a Buick roadster.- The other automobiles\nare under contract yerr by year with the White\nHouse and are not owned by the Government.\nIt would not seem appropriate, therefore, to\nput a gear-shift ball with the President's\nname on it, in any of the White House card.\nVery sincerely yours,\nSTEPHEN EARLY\nAssistant Secretary to the\nPresident\nMr. John Degenhart,\n1348 Elm Street,\nCambridge, Ohio.\nE\nDOUGLAS L.

C.\nand 10.33\nDear Mr. President:\nAs one who wishes you every success and one of your\nmost loyal supporters, I am sending you my old, reliable text\nbook on Political Economy by Arthur L. Perry, L. L. D., formerly\nOrrin Sage Professor of History and Political Economy in\nWilliams College, which I studied in the eighties while\nattending college in Illinois and which I have re-read with\nprofit many times since. I have tried to secure a new copy\nfor you but it seems the work is now out of print and difficult\nto find, so please pardon its appearance. Professor Perry\nprepared this treatise before political parties, politicians\nand certain interests sought to mislead our youths and the\npeople in general by writing false doctrines and text books.\nThough written years ago correct principles of political\neconomy like mathematics are eternal.\nI am sure you will find the chapters on Money, add\nMoney in the Unites States valuable reading at this time and\nif you have time some of the other chapters. The work as a\nwhole is in harmony with Democratic principles.\nWhile I may be mistaken, I think we should not try\nto regulate the world price of gold, but rather strive to\nfree it from human manipulations and let it rest on the law\nof supply and demand. I feel that it may easily prove a\ndisaster and injure or defeat your New Deal plans, which plans\nDOUGLAS L. DUNAVAN\nATTORNEY AT LAW\nLAKELAND, FLORIDA\n2,\nI wish to succeed with all my heart.\nI am sure some of your advisors are in error when\nthey advise that commodity prices advance with the advance\nof the price of gold. All history of money teaches the exact\nreverse. When large quantities of gold were mined in Cal ifornia\nin 1849 and a few yearsfollowing, the price of gold decreased\nand commodity prices advanced. That was also the case when\nlarge quantities of gold were mined in Australia and Alaska.\nAs long as gold is used as money or a measure of value, that\nmust always be the case.\nMay I warn you to guard your health for I fear\nthere are those who wish to overtax your strength.\nRespectfully and cordially yours,\nDouglas Lee Dunavan\nRESIDENCE PHONE all 7-4074\n11-10\nB.
