P.E.O. Chapter BV McAllen, Texas March 27, 1950 UNITED STATE INTERATION S.S. My dear .Johns: Mrs. Truman is always interested in learning of the activities of the various P.E.O. Chapters throughout the country. She is sorry, however, that she cannot have the pleasure of writing you of her activities as the wife of the President. She receives requests from all parts of the country for such letters, and as she has had to decline these requests in the past, she feels it would be very unfair to send such a letter to you after having refused to do this for others. Mrs. Truman hopes you will express her regrets to your membership that it is not possible to do this for your Chapter, and she sands her good wishes to all the members of your group. Very sincerely yours, Mrs. J. M. Helm Secretary to Mrs. Truman Mrs. H. F. Johns EBH:io Box 44 Mission, Texas
