1/11/52 101-I January 9, 1952 My dear Mrs. Spruill: It is regretted that it is necessary to send you a disappointing reply to your recent let- ter. However, great numbers of requests for ex- pressions of the President's views on various subjects are constantly being submitted and the heavy demands upon his time will not permit him to respond to them. I want to thank you, on behalf of the President, for the friendly interest which prompted you to write and to extend best wishes to you and your pupils. Very sincerely yours, WILLIAM D.
