Letter from J. A. Campbell to President Harry S. Truman with a Reply from Eben Ayers

252-K October 7, 1948 Dear Mr. Campbell: This will acknowledge your letter of October fifth, addressed to the President, inviting him to send you a statement concerning the loyalty program for use in your publication. Your interest is appreciated, but I regret that it is not possible for the President to accept your invitation, as he adheres strictly to a policy of not writing anything for the exclusive use of an individual publication. In fairness to the many others who have made similar requests, he could not make an exception in this instance. The President has discussed the subject in which you are interested in some of his public statements and addresses, notably the address he delivered at Oklahoma City on September twenty-eighth. I am enclosing a copy of the complete text in the event that you did not have an opportunity to read all of it. LIMITED ATIONAL DEPARTMENT Sincerely yours, ARCHIVES AND RECORDS SERVICE EBEN A.
