The President wrote to Mr. Hegarty congratulating him on the fine recognition
which has come to him through his selection as Vice President of B. Altman and Company,
after twenty-four years of faithful and efficient service. The President said, in
part: "It's always a happy circumstance when the job and the man best fitted to do it
meet -- partifularly so this time -- because I know you are superbly equipped for your
new and highly responsible duties. Attached is an office memo written in ink indi-
cating that this was the gentleman who made possible the birthday gift to the Presi-
dent by the "old gang" ( a hanging bracket of solid mahogany for a Chinese image the

Honorable Franklin D. Roosevelt

Washington, D. C.
Dear President:
Your tax veto I consider was very mild
in view of the present Congress' childish, contrary
action for the past ten years.
This Congress' behavior bears out Mark
Twain's estimate of the Cluster of Glad Handers
who were in power during his time, and I think the
present Congress has deteriorated since then. Mark
wrote that as a reporter he served two terms in the
House and one in the Senate, and came to know in-
timately the smallest minds, the selfishest souls
and the cowardliest hearts that God makes.
I am enclosing under this cover a pamph-
let describing a Congressman who was very active in
this body not so very long ago. Should you get a
spare moment sometime, I think you can get a laugh
by reading the last chapter on page 41.
Knowing that you will go down in history
with Lincoln and hoping that you put over the Four
Freedoms and live as long as you want to, I am
Sincerely yours,
H.M. Quediet

Wrote to the President saying at his (the President's) suggestion, Sec.
Morgenthau started him off on. a study of Federal-State-Local fiscal relations. Said
they didn't find an easy solution because the U.S.A. is a federal state and must (1)
maintain the freedom of the states and (2) keep the whole system sufficiently elastic
to meet changing conditions. As a result they came to the conclusion that the solu-
tion is administrative and cooperational, celling for the creation of a joint Federal-
State advisory tax board. --- The President wrote to Mr. Gulick, 3-22-44 seying it is a
mighty interesting study as he has found in a ten minute check-up, and it is going
to be much used in the days to come. --- The book, entitled "Federal, State and Local
Government Fiscal Relations", was put in bookcase in the President's office.

Wrote Miss Tully saying that he had received a little book from
Ralph Bradley, a Harvard graduate which the President probably knew. The book en-
titled "Liverpool Jarge," is composed of amusing seafaring tales. After reading it
knew the President would enjoy such a book, so Mr. Bradley sent another book which
he has inscribed to the President and which Mr. Delano passes along for the Presi-
dent's amusement. -- -The President replied on Apr. 8, 1944 saying that many,
many years ago he read a few of the Liverpool Jarge stories as they came out and
he was delighted to have it to take on his forthcoming trip. Feels sure that his
Naval entourage will enjoy it. -- The President further states that he remembers
Ralph Bradley very well - he was the younger brother of Walter Bradley - and the
oldest brother was a classmate of the President. The President thinks all three
of them were in the Fly Club.

Dear Miss Le Hand,
How are you? I trust fit and well.
I thought that the President might like to have a copy of my new
book "The Redwoods". The King graciously accepted a copy and said that he
and the Queen were much interested by the reference to their visit to the
United States.
I have referred to the President more than once, and the por-
trait of himself which he so kindly presented to me is reproduced together
with a photo of the King and the CCC.
The President may be interested to know that a plan I have pro-
posed for land reclamation and re-afforestation in England, based on the
CCC came up for discussion in the House of Lords during the past week, and
I am in high hopes that a progressive programme may be carried out in England
after the war.
We of the Men of the Trees are sponsoring a proposal to establish
a Forest of Thankfulness, and that therein shall grow the hardwood trees of
the kinds used to build the big and little ships which saved us and the
whole world from an era of slavery, shame and sorrow, and in true thankful-
ness this forest will be called "Dunkirk". It is hoped that suitable area
for this purpose will be made available in Kent, the coast line of which
witnessed the amazing Armada which effected that miraculous deliverance.
With kind regards,
Yours sincerely,
Richard St. Barbe Baker.

Dr. Cooke writes from his advance base: "Dear Friends in the Church:
I recently baptized a man and received him into the Church of Christ in the Gener-
al Council of Congregational Christian Churches. The event marked the first use
of our new altar, made of plywood and finished with mahogany stain. The
Church of Christ is for service men and Congregational Christian Chaplains are
associate ministers.
"The February service of baptism and the Fellowship Supper are two of
many church events which have entered into my experience. I send greetings to
the parents who had their children baptized. I have been deeply interested in
Fellowship Suppers through the years. On these occasions we have had speakers
from Africa, China, India, Syria and Turkey, and the United States.
"I entered the Lenten season with you. The preaching emphasis here is on
the Cross. Our Communion of the first Sunday in March was closely associated
with your Communion. As we observe Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday (with
its blessed Communion), Good Friday and Easter, the home church will be at the
center of my thoughts. Iserve men living here, men from ships, men from all
parts of the United States. We appreciate these men, who are giving much up
and giving all.

At 5 P. M. today, J. H. Maunder's sacred cantata, "Olivet to Calvary," will

raising all the war emergency funds of our denomination. One of the relief ser-
vices is assisting the 375 Congregational Christian Chaplains in this country, on
transport duty, and overseas in their work with service men and women; making
possible contact with home churches, providing communion sets and religious
literature, and a variety of needed articles as well as small emergency allowances.
As Christians, we have a particular obligation to support this emergency work
which the churches have setup for spiritual ministry, physical relief, and Christian

Dear Mr. President:
Under separate cover I have mailed you

illustrations, showing man in the act of contacting the
Mental Universe and its effect on our everyday life, making
the battlefield a clearing house for accumulated and mis-

The thoughts of the common man all over
the world are becoming potent and loud in their demands
for truth, equity and balance in all things.
I trust you will have time to take a
