filed 7-11-52 133 HR5678 July 9, 1952 Unto PNO O- My dear Judge O'Brien: Please accept the President's thanks for your letter commending his action in vetoing the McCarran-Walters Bill. In his message returning # the Immigration and Nationality Act to the House of Representatives without his approval, he stated his conviction that the bill was a step backward in the immigration and naturalization policy of our country. Unfortunately this action by the President failed by two votes of being sustained in the Senate. With the thought that you might like to have a copy of the President's veto message for your ready reference, I am taking the liberty of sending you a copy herewith. Very sincerely yours, WILLIAM D. HASSETT Secretary to the President Honorable Patrick H.X O'Brien, Judge of Probate Court of Wayne County, Wayne County Building, Detroit, Michigan. Enclosure. kb
