Lewis "I pledge ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED CORRESPONDING SECRETARY STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH MARIE Goshow IT STANDS . ONE NATION INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY PUBLIC RELATIONS AND JUSTICE FOR ALL." June 12. 1952. Honorable Harry S. Truman, President, White House, Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. President: In view of the passage of the McCarran-Walter omnibus immigration and nationality bill by both Houses of the Congress, we are writing you in the sincerest hope that you will approve and sign this very important piece of legislation. We have been following this legislation very closely as it is our firm conviction that unless we set up impregnable barriers as contained in the McCarran-Walters Bill, that our country will be over-run with the undesitables and the malcontents of other nations. It has been widely reported through the Press and otherwise that it is your intention to use your veto on this measure, but our organization of Mothers of sons in the fighting forces, and fighting on foreign soil, are loath to believe that you would veto this legislation which would give aid and comfort to an enemy alien. We pray that Divine Providence may direct you in your deliberations. Very respectfully, ARCHIVES NATIONAL FREMAN AND DEBARY RECORDS NATIONAL BLUE STAR MOTHERS OF AMERICA SERVICE GOVERNMENT (mis) agnes m.
