Dear Mr. President:
This is just to tell you that I read
your committee's report on Civil
Rights and thought it very good.
*596-A
While I am writing about this, I
want to tell you how very courageous
I thought your message was on the
Marshall Plan. The Republicans
are playing into our hands with their
voluntary anti-inflation measures
but we will have to act immediately
to make the best of it. If they do
a lot of arguing over the Marshall
Plan I think they will find them-
selves in hot water there too.
I am coming to Washington on the
12th of January and hope very much
you will have sone free time on the
13th, as I should like to report
to you on the Human Rights Commis-
sion session.
x85-a Human
With every good wish to you and
lechmission
hights
Mrs. Truman and Margaret for the
New Year, I am,
i the
Very cordially yours,
Transon Rossevelt
