HARRY S. U.S. ARCHIVES AND TRUMAN GOVERNMENT RECORDS LIBRARY
display your muscles have not lost their
usefulness, the fellows in Korea could probly
find a fox hole to fit your 66 year spread.
However, if you can't find a uniform to your
liking or if you wouldn't like missing a few
meals of K and C rations, not enough clothes
to help you dry and warm, no eight hour
days nor an opera to ride to in a new,
chanpered car, perhaps you hadn't ought to go
over. In this case why not do the job all
america elected you for and continue your
other political associates, and perhaps a few
conferences with mr. attlee, the U.N. and your
thousand boys lives may be saved, and brought
bach to the good old U.S.A and their familys.
you know, mr. Truman, many of those dying boys
are no doubt ardent fans of m argaret's and
if you would concentract on getting them bach
safely her future might look a triple more
rosy.
Please dont thresten to blachen my eyes and
wouldn't be able to sleep nights from fright,
beseder 9 couldn't afford any bufstahe or a
Supporta below."
your truly, hoping for World Peace,
a. I. Jones
