Dear President Roosevelt:-
I have the honor to send you under
separate cover a gift copy of my book entitled
"UNDER A NEW BANNER", released April 8th., by
the Oriental Publishing Co., of Philadelphia.
It is not pride in my work which prompts
the gift, but rather a desire for every
American to share with me the knowledge and
acquaintance of an unusual race of people.
For centuries they were downtrodden and
persecuted in their own land, and now have
found sanctuary and peace here in America.
They are contributing to, and injecting into
our national life the same sturdy faithfulness,
loyalty and courage which carried them through
the unbelievable trials and persecutions of
long years of tryanny under the rule of the
Turks, namely the Armenians.
My book deals with the history of Turkey
and Armenia as a background against which is
given in detail the life story of one Armenian
boy.
The steadfast purpose of this boy to
value.

no matter what the cost, makes thrilling read-

istics of the Armenian race as a whole.
The late President Wilson, knew and loved
them as a people, his effort in their behalf
drew them very close to America. His memory
is revered and still fragrant in their lives
as they render unquestioned loyalty and
allegiance to his country which has become
their country too.
"UNDERA NEW BANNER, introduces you to this
splendid race of people in an intimate and wholly
appreciative presentation, which I dare to
hope will lead to friendly interest between you.

A book of thrilling adventure
Under A New
Banner
by
ESTELLE M. GRANT
I
N quick succession the story of Armen
Arakelian portrays new thrills of adven-
ture as he was seized by the Turks at the
time of the massacre of Nevsher, Turkey.
He was driven into the heart of the Syrian
Desert, disguised as an old woman. Parease,
his sister, was seized by the Governor, and
to
placed in his Harem-house, her attempt to
escape ending in tragedy.
The Desert held many weird and wild
experiences for the young man Armen. He
encountered tribes of wild Arabs, but through
the cleverness of the slave girl Zartar, he
escaped.
Later he becomes camel driver with a
caravan working between Bagdad and
Mosul.
Trading this job for life in the trenches
during the World War, he spends weeks
as a spy, fighting his way through the Tur-
kish lines disguised as Howling Dervish.
He comes to America, but later returns
to Paris, from this point he arranges escape
of a beautiful girl elected to Harem life.
Story ends on high note of victory, and a
bit of delicate romance, fragrant and beauti-
ful in spiritual and patriotic values.
Public and School libraries, Womens' Clubs
Kiwanis and Rotary Clubs are featuring
this book because of its high PATRIOTIC
value,

Previous to the last generation, business

changed, and wage earmers have suffered on
account of the Selfishness of the profit takers

many years ago I realized that likely
Selfishness is the cause of most all our misery,

Mr. President:

Your keen personal interest in the welfare of industry,
exemplified by your almost superhuman efforts to aid its recovery,
prompts us to address this message to you.
During the years of economic uncertainty, the A.P.
Green Fire Brick Company, Mexico, Missouri, embarked upon a pro-
gram of manufacturing betterment, and, at a time when most busi-
nesses were majoring in a course of retrenchment, spent huge sums
of money for new equipment, improved methods, laboratory expansion
and research.
Allen P. Green, founder and chief executive of the A. P.
Green Fire Brick Company, planned and executed the program, moti-
vated by his absolute faith in American principles and American
ability to come through.
This year marks the twenty-fifth milestone in the growth
and progress of the A. P. Green Fire Brick Company - a Silver An-
niversary that stands as a remarkable tribute to Mr. Green's place
in the refractories industry - a Silver Anniversary that finds our
nation actively engaged in justifying Mr. Green's faith in its
fighting ability.
Because Mr. Green is so great an admirer of you, Mr.
President, and because he believes that a great measure of this
country's industrial recovery is the result of your individual ef-
forts and leadership, he has asked us to present on his behalf this
special copy of the Silver Anniversary brochure, published to com-
memorate the twenty-fifth birthday of the A. P. Green Company. He
hopes you will find it of interest.
May we venture the thought that Mr. Green will deeply ap-
preciate and find a place of honor for an autographed photograph
of you, Mr. President.

Franklin D. Roosevelt,
President,
United States of America.
Dear Sir:
Your splendid and unselfish efforts towards making these
United States of America a better place in which to live
have always elicited my greatest admiration. The high es-
teem in which I held and hold you and Mrs. Roosevelt
prompted me, on April 19, 1935, to send you a book of lith-
ographs of paintings by Norway's premier artists, entitled
"Nordisk Folk Lif. Having received no acknowledgement of
the receipt of the book, which was a rare and beautiful
edition, and probably the only one extant in this country,
I respectfully write this letter now in an effort to
ascertain whether or not the book reached its proper des-
tination. The book, incidentally, was sent by insured mail.
It is a rare edition even in Scandinavia, where it was
printed in 1845, and was very dear to me, having been
handed downto me from my ancestral home as an heirloom.
Naturally, I should feel very sorry if the book should
be lost.
With my kindest wishes for the ultimate and complete
success of your many undertakings in behalf of our country,
I beg to remain,
Most Respectfully yours,
Chas. Oo Chumaelius.

My dear Mr. President:
Partizan political prophets are telling the
world that we are in for stormy weather in 1936.
May I take this opportunity to say as a buck
private that I stand ready and willing to follow our great leader
and explorer through the storm, no matter where the temperature
goes, and thence into the sunshine of victory on the day of
national thanksgiving that will occur the first Tuesday after the
first Monday, November 2, 1936.
As a token of my affection and as an
expression of my desire for your full protection and good health,
I am sending you this wool muffler and necktie. The artificial
cold created by the opposition must not be permitted to touch the
grand organ of your throat.
With every good wish now and always,

My dear Mr. President,
It is a pleasure to be able to send you herewith
a first-edition copy of my book "President Randolph, As I
Knew Him", which is just off the press.
I have several reasons for sending you this book.
First, it is a serious effort in the direction of the
greatest problem confronting the world---universal peace.
Second, a President naturally would be interested in learn-
ing something about the Administration of one of his succes-
sors. Third, as you are in this book, you may be a little
curious to know what you may be doing and saying some twenty
years from now.
The initial reactions to "President Randolph" are
gratifying. If your exacting duties should sometime permit
you to examine this book, and to send me briefly your im-
pressions of it, I would be well repaid for the labors in-
volved in the writing, I assure you.
Yours very sincerely,

Dear Mr. President:
I have finally succeeded in obtaining, and have
had framed for desk or wall, something I would like
to ask you, please, to accept - a little engraving
from an unusual portrait, and a contemporaneous one,
of Mr. Jefferson. He sat for it while in London
sometime after our War for Independence. The artist,
Mather Brown, was a native American. This is one of
the few pictures made of Mr. Jefferson when he was
comparatively young, and was painted for John Adams
and is today in the possession of the Adams family in
Boston.
The impulse is strong within me to tell you what
pride and gratitude Mr. Jefferson, if he were alive,
needs must feel for his present day successor, for
your vision, courage and outstanding deeds, but I
will content myself with asking you, please, to ac-
cept this little engraving with the loyal good wishes
of one who will ever be

His Excellency,
Franklin D Roosevelt,
President of the United States,
White House, Washington, D.C.
Dear Mr. President:-
Within a few days you will receive,
from the Yale University Press, & letter about, and &
copy OI, my new book - just off the press - on "MANAGING
THE PEOPLE'S MONEY".
A similar copy is being forwarded to my
friend, Senator Joe I. Robinson, formerly & schoolmate of
my father in Lonoke, Arkansas; also to Senator Carter Glass
and to each of the other members of the Senate and the
House Committees on Banking and Currency. While Senator
Robinson does not purport to be & monetary authority,
I believe he will vouch for my intellectual objectivity.
This treatise, of course, does not offer any
magic panacea. It does, however, analyze the defects in
our Banking System, and points out the means by which
I believe those defects may effectively corrected. As is
indicated in the text, my aim has been to discover and
make plain the changes in banking law and banking practices
that must be effected in order to realize a banking
and monetary system that promotes stable economic progress
and offers & firm economic basis on which sound social
legislation can be built in & firm and lasting way.
The principles and cnnclusions set forth in
this work have been arrived at only after nearly three
years of painstaking research and analysis. The connections
between accepted banking methods and the inflation and
the resulting depression have been worked out. The English
banking system is subjected to a new analysis. The Banking
Acts of 1933 and of 1935 are discussed and evaluated -
they represent an improvement, but do not yet remedy the
fundamental defects that promote economic disbuption.
Because some of the principles pertain to
the banking control vested in the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System, a copy of the book is also being
sent to Mr. Eccles.
Page Two
November 29, 1935
That this analysis, and these proposals, ought to
have a permanent influence on the law and the control
and the practice of banking in this country, is a
conclusion which I believe will be reached by every
well informed and unprejudiced reader who really takes
the pains to read it with care and to verify any portions
of its proof that may not at first seem wholly convincing.
Open-mindedness, however, is requisite, since
some of the favorite and most widely accepted banking
fetishes are subjected to analysis, and are found not
only to be wrong, but to be in fact theactive and
moving bauses without which a far greater degree of
economic progress and order would undoubtedly have been
attained without the disruption of the past six years.
I hope, therefore, that you will delegate, to several
able and open-minded men, the task of reading and study-
ing the book and of reporting back to you independently.
If you yourself could possibly read Chapters I, V,VI and VII,
and arrive at an independent judgment of your own, I
believe the importance of both the subject and of the
treatment of it would far more than repay you for the
time involved. After all, probably there is no more im-
portant subject with which you, as President, must deal
during the remainder of your administration.
If, after having this treatise read somewhat in
the manner indicated above, you find it points the
way to a realization of the soundness in banking that
you have been so anxious to attain, then there would
seem to be no greater service one could do in this
direction than to have developed the theme and to have
brought it directly to your attention.
ngm
I do hope you will consult, in this matter, with
adequate counsellors, and that they will approach the
subject intelligently and free of entangling mental bias.
The subject is too deep, and its importance too profound,
to permit any other type of mental approach, as you
yourself would undoubtedly be the first to insist.
Respectfully yours,

Secretary to the President,
The White House,

Washington, D C
12/1193
Dear Miss le Hand:-
I am enclosing herewith a copy of my
letter, of even date, addressed to the President. As you
will note, from reading the enclosure, it treats of per-
haps the most complicated and baffling problem of
American economic organization - the reconstruction of
our Banking System along lines that promote stable economic
progress.
The book referred to in that letter - "MANAGING
THE PEOPLE'S MONEY" - which will shortly arrive from the
Yale University Press, brings a new and important analysis
bearing directly on American banking as it is now
constituted. It points the way, we believe, to necessary
changes of an evolutionary character which are not only
economically important but would seem to be politically
expedient.
With the assistance of this treatise it seems
quite possible for the President to complete, in sound and
permanent fashion, the task of banking reform which he
inaugurated with SO much effectiveness in March, 1933.
Unless, however, my own letter, and also the
letter of transmissal, and the book itself, from Yale
University Press, come directly into the interested
attention of the President himself, this opportunity for
further service of outstanding quality will almost cer-
tainly fail of recognition. I am therefore hoping that
you will take it upon yourself to make sure that the
President's attention is personally directed to both these
letters and to the book, when it arrives.
The ultimate responsibility, of course, lies on
Mr. Roosevelt himself. When you and I (if you should decide
to act as I have suggested) have brought this matter to his
attention, that is about as far as we can go in that di-
rection. I should feel remiss in my duty, however, in
failing to do whatever may be possible to place this
opportunity for real public service directly in the hands
of the one having power to give it form and substance.
G/S
With every personal good wish Joseph Sincerely

His Excellency,
Franklin D Roosevelt,
President of the United States,
White House, Washington, D.C.
Dear Mr. President:-
Within a few days you will receive,
from the Yale University Press, a letter about, and a
copy of, my new book - just off the press - on "MANAGING
THE PEOPLE'S MONEY".
A similar copy is being forwarded to my
friend, Senator Joe T. Robinson, formerly a schoolmate of
my father in Lonoke, Arkansas; also to Senator Carter Glass
and to each of the other members of the Senate and the
House Committees on Banking and Currency. While Senator
Robinson does not purport to be a monetary authority,
I believe he will vouch for my intellectual objectivity.
This treatise, of course, does not offer any
magic panacea. It does, however, analyze the defects in
our Banking System, and points out the means by which
I believe those defects may effectively corrected. As is
indicated in the text, my aim has been to discover and
make plain the changes in banking law and banking practices
that must be effected in order to realize a banking
and monetary system that promotes stable economic progress
and offers a firm economic basis on which sound social
legislation can be built in a firm and lasting way.
The principles and cnnclusions set forth in
this work have been arrived at only after nearly three
years of painstaking research and analysis. The connections
between accepted banking methods and the inflation and
the resulting depression have been worked out. The English
banking system is subjected to a new analysis. The Banking
Acts of 1933 and of 1935 are discussed and evaluated -
they represent an improvement, but do not yet remedy the
fundamental defects that promote economic disruption.
Because some of the principles pertain to
the banking control vested in the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System, a copy of the book is also being
sent to Mr. Eccles.

That this analysis, and these proposals, ought to
have a permanent influence on the law and the control
and the practice of banking in this country, is a
conclusion which I believe will be reached by every
well informed and unprejudiced reader who really takes
the pains to read it with care and to verify any portions
of its proof that may not at first seem wholly convincing.
Open-mindedness, however, is requisite, since
some of the favorite and most widely accepted banking
fetishes are subjected to analysis, and are found not
only to be wrong, but to be in fact theactive and
moving causes without which a far greater degree of
economic progress and order would undoubtedly have been
attained without the disruption of the past six years.
I hope, therefore, that you will delegate, to several
able and open-minded men, the task of reading and study-
ing the book and of reporting back to you independently.
If you yourself could possibly read Chapters I, V, VI and VII,
and arrive at an independent judgment of your own, I
believe the importance of both the subject and of the
treatment of it would far more than repay you for the

direction than to have developed the theme and to have

adequate counsellors, and that they will approach the
subject intelligently and free of entangling mental bias.
The subject is too deep, and its importance too profound,
to permit any other type of mental approach, as you
yourself would undoubtedly be the first to insist.
