THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON July 22, 1949 Dear Hinie: I appreciated your letter of the twentieth very much and I hope our friend Irving comes out all right. He has been having considerable trouble with his Secretary and I am sorry for that for I recommended his Secretary to him, laboring under the impression that a man of experience would do him some good. I am glad you had a chance to meet Jesse Donaldson - he is a grand fellow. I am also happy to hear that Alex Sachs is doing all right. Sincerely yours, Honorable Edgar G. Hinde Postmaster United States Post Office Independence, Missouri
