My dear Mr. McIntyre:
A note has been received from the Japanese Ambassador
+191
requesting to be informed whether the President would find
it agreeable to accept two cans of green tea which have
been received at the Embassy from Mr. Yenichiro Nakamura,
head of the Japan Tea Promotion Committee in Japan. In
addition to his position with the Tea Committee, Mr. Nakamura
is a Member of the House of Peers, and when in the United
States in 1934 called at the White House on Mr. Early on
August twenty-seventh for the purpose of presenting to the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt a case of Japanese tea.
Ambassador Saito states in his note that he has re-
ceived an additional twenty cans of green tea for distri-
bution among the President's "official family", if agree-
able.
I
The Honorable
Marvin H. McIntyre,
Assistant Secretary to the President,

I see no objection to the President accepting the
two cans of green tea offered to him personally. I
doubt the wisdom, however, of accepting the additional
twenty cans of tea for distribution among the President's
"official family".
If you will advise me of the President's wishes in
this matter, I shall be glad to communicate them to the
Ambassador.
Sincerely
Milham yours, Rulajs X20

MEMORANDUM FOR HON. WILLIAM PHILLIPS:
Dear Mr. Phillips:
about the propriety of the acceptance of
I quite agree with your opinion
Mr. Yenichiro Nakamura's tea by the
"official family".
May I suggest that the matter
be handled along that line, namely, that
the President will be glad to accept the
two cans of tea personally, but that the
other be "sidetracked". I think we can
reach this decision without bothering
the President.

My dear Mr. Le Hand:
mahily
Your kind letter of the 19th instant, was
indeed gratifying, to put it mildly. May I however,
ask your kind indulgence to read the sentiments of
my inner feelings and desires.
I fully realize that the President, re-
ceives great quantities of letters and gifts daily.
But for one to expect a personal answer or acknow-
ledgment to a letter or a gift, would be absurd.
In my case however, I feel it to be different, for
the reason that my token to the President, is not
a photograph, etching or struck up in the ordinary
11
and usual manner of tokens.
I accomplished my desired results of this
composition, only after three months of undivided
efforts and concentration with my (engraver's) tools,
and so would greatly appreciate a personal acknow-
ledgment from the President. I desire that this
personal letter of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the
President of these United States of America, to
remain with my heirs, after my passing from this
Earthly Stage. I do not only attach this great
sentiment to a letter from the President, because
he is the President of these United States of
America, but also because of his greatness, as a
Man.
I trust you will give my letter your
valued consideration, I am
Very respectfully yours,
Charles Namiot
P. S. I truthfully assert and promise that there
is no ulterior motive in my mind, such as publici-

mercial gain, but purely for sentimental reasons,
as I have heretofore expressed.

I finished the instrument for you about three months
ago, and you will find it attached to this letter
with your initials inlaid in the fingerboard.
I think I may be credited with being a bit of a
prophet because it has long been declared the
