I have been a long time acknowledging it because of the rush of matters in the office here. Thanks for your support in the winning of the war and the establishment of a permanent peace. Those, of course, are the two most important things now pending. Thanks again for your most cordial letter. It is a terrific responsibility and we all feel trenendously the loss of our great President. With kindest personal regards, I an Sincerely yours, HARRY S. TRUMAN Honorable Thomas E. Dewey Governor of New York Albany, New York
