B.C. ackyo 5-13-41 IC The President, Thamas CANADA The White House. My dear Mr. President: On behalf of the International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission I am presenting you herewith some tangible evidence of the fine quality of Fraser River Sockeye Salmon. This sample has been made available through the kindness of Mr. A. L. Hager, Vancouver, B. C., one of the Canadian members of the International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission. He is a large fish packer, operating a number of plants in British Columbia, and is associated with the New England Fish Company, which operates several plants in the United States and Alaska. If the work of the Commission is successful, and we have every reason to believe it will be, this valuable Fraser River Sockeye Salmon may be restored to its former abundance, the largest cycle of which, based on present prices, when restored to its former level will bring to American and Canadian fish- ermen from thirty to thirty-five million dollars annually. The Commission was established in 1937 and splendid progress has been made up to date. I shall appreciate it if you will make acknowledgment to Mr. A. L. Hager, Member, International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Sincerely yours, Chas. Member. E.Jackson 112-200-52 WALTER F.

Dear Mr. Hassett: Senator Austin of Vermont was in our place of business recently and in visiting with him he told me that if I would write you he thought you would get a ham that we wish to send to the President into his hands. We have been under the impression from different articles that we have read in magazines about food items sent as gifts to Mr. Roosevelt that most of them are distributed to charitable institutions. Because we have had the privilege of selling our meat in the past years to Mr. Coolidge and to Mr. Hoover we very much desire to carry on the tradition of serving President Roosevelt with it if it could be, only in the way of a gift. You may be sure that we shall not attempt to solicit the President's business in any way and if you will accommodate us by placing our gift of a ham in the proper hands so that the President will receive it we will very much appreciate the courtesy. Will you kindly use the enclosed postage to reply to this letter and if our offer meets with your approval, tell us when the best time would be to send our gift?

MAX HEINDEL A SOFT HEART OCEANSIDE, CALIFORNIA A SOUND BODY June 28, 1941 To the Honorable President of the United States The White House Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. President: I have been urged by an invisible force that is not permitting me to rest until I have written you this very unusual letter. Knowing that your time is SO limited, and so many duties rest upon one pair of shoulders, I shall make this letter as short as possible, condensing it and then giving a more detailed explanation in a book which I have marked for your perusal, written by my late husband in the year 1908. I knew before you were elected that you would be in office again the next four years--a Man of Destiny who has a tremendous responsibility. The peace of the world is in your hands, I am not a woman of emotion or one who takes these things lightly. For forty-three years I have been a humanitarian worker and my last thirty-two years have been completely devoted to this work. I have thought over this subject of the European war from the time of its inception and many things have been revealed to me which are not ordin- arily given to the masses. My humanitarian work has given me the development which makes it possible for me at times to see into the future. This tremendous war that is going on across the water today is not one that is in the hands of man. Humanity is not waging this war, but Race Spirits are responsible for it. You can read in your Bible about the Race Spirits when Jehovah divided humanity, in the early Atlantean Period, into races and nations, and placed a Race Spirit over each to be its guide. These Beings are a group of advanced spirits that are two steps ahead of the human race--Arch- Angels. At present the world is progressing. A tremendous change is pending. A new period is dawning which will bring about the brotherhood of man. In order to inaug- urate this brotherhood of man these Race Spirits that have been guiding nations for thousands of years must THE ROSICRUCIAN FELLOWSHIP An International Association of Christian Mystics FROM THE DESK OF A SANE MIND MRS. MAX heindel MOUNT ECCLESIA A SOFT HEART oceanside, CALIFORNIA A SOUND BODY now be freed. They, too, are evolving and are desirous of giving up the guidance of these races. Universal Brotherhood is in the ethers, which they are hoping to bring about, if man will permit them to, A force is behind this waging war which is beyond the comprehension of man, and Dear President, if you will think this over seriously you will not sacrifice our American boys in an effort to try to thwart these Higher Beings and their purpose. Their freedom will permit man to guide himself into a brotherhood, and no longer be under the guidance of the Race Spirits. Only then can universal peace prevail. As long as there are races and nations, wars will continue, but when once the object of the Race Spirits has been accomplished, war and hatred will cease. I am pleading with you, Dear President, to think over this letter seriously and read the marked sections in the book which I am mailing to you under another cover-- "The Rosicrucian Cosmo-Conception", which was written by my late husband, who was credited with having been the greatest mystic in the Western World--a man who had the true sight to see into the future and the invisible planes. I hope you will pardon me for taking your valuable time, but I have been haunted for the past week by an invisible force that has been compelling me to reveal these things to you. Yours most respectfully, angus ta Foss Heindel (Mrs. Max Heindel) AFH:mt P.P.Z 9-H 9- July 9, 1941 lly dear Governor Heilt Many thanks for the gifts to which you refer in your kind letter of June seven-> teenth.

High School Book Club Division of Readers' League of America S.T.E 100 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y. July 15, 1941 Honorable Franklin D. Roosevelt The White House Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. President: The HIGH SCHOOL BOOK CLUB is a book-cf-the-month club designed to en- able the boys and girls of this country to obtain good books at the lowest possible price. The Club apparently fills an important need; some 100,000 young people are now participating and are obtaining carefully selected clothbound books at a 22¢ average price. We are the only organization in the country that is publishing books exclusively for high school boys and girls. We are doing this practically at cost to make it possible for non- wage earning youngsters to derive the cultural benefits of book ownership. Enclosed is a mimeographed booklet explaining the Club and a sample of one of our books to show format. Many of the teacher members have asked whether a one-volume collection of your addresses could not be offered to our high school boys and girls; they feel that such a book is both desirable and important, especially at this time. Would you be willing to have us publish such a volume for high school boys and girls, perhaps with a short introductory note by you? Yours respectfully, HIGH SCHOOL BOOK CLUB Robert Paul Director rp:fs p.p.7 July 24, 1941 My dear Mr. Harper: Your note of July nineteenth has been received and I want to thank you, in the Presi- dent's behalf, for your kindness in sending him the pansy seed. 1 can assure you that he will XPP7 X P.P7 be deeply grateful for your friendly thought g-p and for your good wishes. x pp.7 Very sincerely yours, 98 GRACE G.
