Dear Mr. President:
I am a student of political science and economics.
For several months I have been reading books,
editorials, and articles by syndicate writers who
severely criticize the present administration.
Knowing that these writers do not state the true
facts, I have been inspired to write the little
booklet, FORWARD WITH ROOSEVELT, which accompanies
this letter.
FORWARD WITH ROOSEVELT was written to inform.
Already this booklet has had a favorable sales
reception in the city of Richmond, where it is
published.
May I be permitted to ask that you personally read
this effort on my part to provide a concrete service
to my country by increasing the Democratic vote in
November.
Allow me to wish you the highest success in the
coming election.
Respectfully submitted,
Edward Jones

by John A. Jones better known as Jack Jones is commended by
oé, Moley, Hutchins, Hall, Leech, Brownell and Chaplin.
One hundred years from now a student going
over the rash of social planning which broke
out about 1933 to 1935 will say of "Tech-Up:"
"This is not a social plan, for nothing is
T-UP
forced. It shows with the inerrancy of in-
stinct in what directions the plan inherant
in the power machine age would evolve of
itself".
Walter J. Millard
Baker Brownell, Professor of Contemporary Life and Thought, Northwestern University-
As beautifully printed a book as I have seen. Surely well planned to put across the ideas in-
tended. The fact that people like Jones, and others, still believe that human effort and hope
will help matters, is about the most encouraging thing in this general situation.
Ralph Chaplin, Editor, Author, Lecturer—
"Tech-Up" is dynamic, thought provoking, thought compelling. In a class by itself as it depicts
a definite type of industrial and social mechanism. You'll be surprised to discover how many
highly compressed ideas are crammed in it. Its pithy paragraphs stick in the memory. After
you read it things will never seem the same.
O. L. Hall, Former Owner of the Chicago Daily Journal-
Until I read "Tech-Up" the jumble of printed thought that obscured rather than cleared up
the issues involved in the depression had me muddled. Tech-Up is clear, concise, straightforward
and epigramatic. Very understandable. To say so much in so few words shows that the author
can write.
Harper Leech, Economist, Co-originator of War Risk Insurance with Basil Manly-
Jack Jones has done a graphic job. It takes striking phrase to jam the physical facts of
economics into the modern mind-still a fog of metaphysics, peopled by the ghosts of "scarcity"
and "thrift." That these "sacred cows" were calved in mental mist, yielding no milk except red
ink, ought to be evident enough to a world that has for three years rubbernecked from the bald-
headed row at the burlesque of poverty sired by plenty. It gives me great pleasure to recom-
mend Jack's job. It is a master piece of word engineering, and gives ground for the hope that
some day language will cease to be the prison house of thought.
A. C. Noe, Professor of Palaeobotony, University of Chicago (who investigated German and Russian
coal situation for Soviets)-
discussed. Certainly a very stimulating book, even if I do not agree with the author on every point
William F. Ogburn, Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, University of Chicago-
The name "Tech-Up" is well chosen. Chart No. 4 can be redrawn to depict any industrial
es
set up.
A genius for getting pearls of wisdom in brief sentences. Each one seems to be packed. A
rich collection of texts any one of which might lead into a lengthy discussion.

Dear Sir:
Sometimes I do a little wood-turning. Not long
ago I cut an old weather-beaten juniper tree on the high desert, I found
after turning some of it, the most beautiful grained wood I have ever seen.
Thinking perhaps I never would find another so beautiful, I wanted to
share some part of it with you, So turned two table lamps and am sending
them as a gift, by prepaid express.
They are all ready to use only the shades. Not knowing what color would
please you I left this item to Mrs. Roosevelt.
The great value of these lamps is the age of the wood. This tree had I984
years of growth and my estimation has been dead about IOO years.
Whatever trees we cut for this purpose we count the grains with a magnifying
glass.

Dear Mr. President:-
Your recommendations for sweeping
reforms in our judiciary system is well-timed.
Unfortunately, too many of our people do not have an
understanding of the problem you have undertaken to solve;
this ignorance, fanned by the misrepresentations and mis-
interpretations of your opposition, is resulting in a
flood of protests to senators and congressmen that are
prompted by unfounded fears.
Several years ago, while attending
Grinnell College with our mutual friend, Harry L. Hopkins,
we had a professor in Political Science named Jesse Macy.
X
I have just finished reading his autobiography and have
been so impressed with hisfar sightedness and his insight
X274
into our political life, that I am taking the liberty of
forwarding you a copy of his autobiography, and respect-
fully cite you to the following quotations:
Page 105 contains a reference to his authorship of the
book "The English Constitution" and reads as follows:
"Thendsavored toeshow our own constitution as a vigorous
growth, a vital product of the older tree of liberty, the
English Constitution from which it descends". (page 108)
"The American views a consitution in a different way from
a European student. He lacks the habit of dealing with
matters of mental consideration, of examining ideas rather
than things, of understanding the shadowy, the evasive,
the tenuous, and seeks rather the definite, the exact, the
clear, positive situations and facts to which he gives
names and forms. He thinks he understands the consti-
tution of his own government because he has the written
document before him. He is told and he believes, that
it is rigid, unchangeable, fixed, but he finds thata
large part of the acts of government are not expressly
provided for in the written instruments. He finds, after
all, as a foreigner does, that We Americans make con-
stitutions as other people do; that is, by dropping into
habits. The intelligent foreigner is led naturally to
the correct view of the origin of our written constitutions.
#2
President
These instruments are formal records of the habits of
government into which the people had already dropped,
or were upon the point of dropping, at the time they
were written. It is absurd to think of a conclave of
wise men "creating" a constitution. Plato's Republic
is an instance of a constitution created, but that is
simply a work of fiction. Locke's Constitution for the
Carolinas is an instance of a constitution created
for practical use, and that is idiocy clothed in the
form of wisdom. Constitution-making is an act of
recognition, not of creation; the acme is reached when
the most advanced step is recognized. But, as long as
we are either progressing or retrograding, we shall go
right on putting off old habits, and dropping into new;
and we can see clearly that those who imagine that
there is an exact correspondence between the acts and
habits and the written instrument are wrong".
find that our Constitution does change, as the years
pass, without formal action, and the altered customs
and undertakings are accepted and acted upon".
In speaking of Theodore Roosevelt, he writes,
(page 131) "Roosevelt's official leadership culminated
in 1908. His strengthening of the executive power calls
attention by contrast to the defects in our judicial
system. The fact that our courts decide whether an act
of the legislature is law at all leads to delays in se-
curing legal remedies. The conflict of authority between
state and general government gives rise to endless liti-
gation. Add to this the habit of observing endless
legal technicalities, and the judiciary becomes very often
an agency of injustice. I very early reached the con-
clusion that we would never grapple successfully with
the new industrial problems until there was thorough
reform in our judicial system"******page 132) and where
all talk, some are liable to think; and no man can think
on our judicial proceedure without perceiving the need
of reform".
He writes (page 143) # Government by public
opinion calls for light, mutual trust, good will, and a
spirit of self-sacrifice for the common good. *****
"Democracy incurs serious limitations on account of the
presence of enemies to the system who presume to take
part in political debate", Democracy Excludes
nothing in form and method except the rule of a privileged
class. It may even appropriate the services of an aris-
tocracy. Such an idea is as old as Plato and Aristotle".
#3
President
The fact that these observations of Professor
Macy were all written by him priot to 1919, proves to
a thinking man that your contention for reform in our
judiciary system is long over-due. The majority of
our citizenry have come to look upon our Supreme Court
as a"deification" of our judicial branch of government;
they have been lulled into a state of satisfaction with
things as they are by your opposing forces preaching
a lot of sentimental drivel on the sacredness of a
constitution that has been out-grown for years.
I trust that, you will find the chapter on
"American Politics" as interesting as I have found it,
and it will give me pleasure to have you place this book
in your library.
It is my humble opinion that there
are a great number of senators and congressmen in Washington
that could profit by reading this autobiography.
With sincere wishes for your continued good health
and the hope that you will always reflect the one great
Mind that has always led His people aright,
Believe me to be,
Most cordially yours,
David H. Jenkins
