THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 27, 1949 Dear Hinde: I appreciated very much your letter of the twenty-fourth. I am glad you have succeeded in getting your office cleaned up and painted. I am sending you the picture you suggest. I also appreciate most highly your reference to politics in Eastern Jackson County. I hope I get to see you and all the "Harpies" on Thursday night. I am sure I will. Sincerely yours, Herry Honorable Edgar G. Hinde Postmaster United States Post Office Independence, Missouri
