My Dear President:
of
I had the pleasure a year ago of writing to you con-
gratulating you on your birthday, and I feel that you have
done such noble work in the past year, and it would be only
fair that I should lend whatever little encouragement I can
in carrying out your future program.
I am sending a book, I have had in my Library, for
many years, and there has been SO much adverse criticism by
the Chicago Daily Tribune and the Chicago Daily News, about
the National Debt, that I am prompted to ask you to read
about twenty pages of this little book by Macauly, Pages 180
to 199.
I think you will find an anology of our present day
condition and the origin of the National Debt in England,
in the seventeenth century. This will consume about fifteen
minutes of your time which I know is very valuable.
It impressed me very much. Now when I hear some of
our great financiers complaining about the National Debt,
as they did in England, in the seventeenth century. The
subsequent events proved that they were all wrong as I
believe they will about the National Debt.
However, you may after reading this book pass it
on or place it somewhere in your own Library.
Wishing you health, success and a long continuous
reign, I am
Very respectfully yours,
Superintendent.

Dear Mr. Secretary:
The Ojai Valley Chamber of Commerce is
joining with Mr. Bill Baker, famous cake decorator and the
manufacturer of lima bean bread, in presenting to President
and Mrs. Roosevelt, through you, a shipment of a new product
recently introduced by Mr. Baker, namely, Lima Bean Waffle-
Biscuit-Hotcake Flour.
This product, introduced for the first time but a few days
ago, is meeting with enthusiastic demand and it seems likely
that it will surpass in popularity Mr. Baker's wonderful lima
bean bread which has become a dietetic necessity for thousands
of users during the past three years.
Every ingredient used in Mr. Baker's Lima Bean Waffle-
Biscuit-Hotcake Flour is produced right here in California
and the lima beans which form its base are one of the principle
products of our immediate community.
Will you please be kind enough to present with our compliments
and those of Mr. Baker to the President and Mrs. Roosevelt
this little offering from the Ojai Valley and California.
Very truly yours,
Ojai Valley Chamber of Commerce,
William W.Kent

This first meeting-house was
burned by Indians in 1676 together
with 40 or more dwellings and re-
sulted in the inhabitants fleeing to
Concord. In December of the fol-
lowing year they voted to return to
Groton the next spring and "begin to
repair our habitations."
Soon after the resettlement of the
town, agitation was started to build
a new meeting-house and this was

about 35 years and on the comple-
tion of the next meeting-house the
old one was converted into a school-
house.
At a town meeting in March of
1714 it was voted that the third
meeting-house should stand "at
Green's" (approximately the loca-
q-o
tion of the present church.) In 1733
it was "Voted, that such persons as

to individuals to build seats, to orna-
ment and improve several parts of
the meeting-house at their private
expense.
William Martin, of Groton, by his
last will and testament, dated Mar.
6. 1672, bequeathed to said town
LOUIS McH. HOWE
the sum of 10 pounds "towards pur-

town's use." Mr. Martin died about
three weeks later, but the bequest

was not paid for nearly 60 years. In
1731, one of the legatees of Martin,
who had received his portion of the
estate, was sued and the legacy was

voted to procure a bell for the meet-

purpose by Jonathan Lawrence. In

the committee "provide victuals &

preparations were made for the
raising of the fourth meeting-house,
which took place a few days after
and this is the present meeting-
house of the First Parish. A draw-
ing made by John Warner Barber
in 1838 shows the building facing
the north and what is now a steeple
was then a tower with an entrance
through the base, which was closed
in.
There are entrances also on the
west and south sides. The pulpit
was very high with an imposing
sounding board, the pews were
square and there were galleries on
three sides. Many of the parishion-
ers came from a distance and stayed
from the morning to the close of
the afternoon services, bringing
their noon lunches with them. It
was customary for those living near
by to invite the others to eat their
unches by the open fires in their
homes. There was no heat in the
meeting-house, so many used foot
stoves.
This fourth meeting-house was
struck by lightning in July of 1795
and the steeple somewhat injured,
but the fire was extinguished with-
out great damage. A common no-
tion of the time, that fire set by
lightning could not be put out by

In 1839-40 the building was
turned one-quarter around to face
the west. Two of the galleries were
removed, the rear gallery remaining

this was the first building in Groton
to be so heated. An entry in the

the meeting-house was altered for
activities - reproductions of this picture to

In 1877 the interior was again al-
tered. The remaining gallery was
removed and the organ lowered.
The high pulpit was removed and
the astrol lamps for burning sperm
oil were removed. A centre aisle
was made with two rows of seats
on each side and an aisle against.
each wall. Some of the doors to
the pews which followed the old
square box pews can be seen today
as part of the panelling in nearby
houses.
In January of 1916 a committee
of the parish set out to raise $10,-
000 "to restore the interior of the
building SO that it will be in har-
mony with the exterior." How suc-
cessfully this was done is still evi-
dent, as very few changes have been
made since then.

Dear Sir:
We are mailing, under separate cover, a name plate
carved by two of our clients in the McAlester Di-

This gift was carved by way of expressing their
appreciation and gratitude for the security and
comfort they are receiving in our camp and for the
assistance you have given the Federal Transient
Bureau.
We have established a Recreational and Educational
program in all of our camps in the state. In addi-
tion to Educational classes, we are holding classes
in Vocational Training. We are doing everything in
our power to raise the morale of our clients, for we
do not feel that we have accomplished anything if we
merely house and feed them.
A number of our clients are going back to private
industry and we hope that their associations with
the Transient Bureau have made better men and women
of them.
Assuring you of our cooperation at all times, I am

My dear Governor:--
Enclosed please find copy of letter I sent to
Judge J.J. Burns, General Counsel, SEC, relative to the
Hearst Consolidated Publications, Inc., which is self
explanatory.
I was very much interested in Walter Lipman's article
that appeared in the Los Angeles Sunday Times, July 21st, 1935.
He covers much, particularly his statement with reference to
the bad government record in handling most of these cases. In
other words, his inferences were, I believe, that we had an
awfully good case but handled by poor attorneys.
Personally, I quite agree with him. These cases should
be put into stronger hands. Someone like the late Senator Walsh.
Isn't it too bad that Senator Hiram Johnson can't be persuaded
to handle these issues in his own way? We need someone like
him who can deliver solid punches, properly directed.
I am trying to purchase a book that has been called to
my attention, that I believe will cover much with reference to
the Supreme Court's decisions for the past fifteen administrations.
This book is a resume and was completed about 1931, and should
be invaluable, perhaps you may have this book, but rather than
take any chances I will forward it immediately upon receipt.
Trusting that you will not think me too presumptuous
with reference to the above, I remain,
Sincerely, your friend,

Re: Your File GC:SIH

Dear Sir:--
I read with much interest yours of July 10th, relative
to my wire June 27th to the President.
Since sending my wire I have not been able to find the
"colored gentleman" in the Hearst financial setup. My only
suggestion now, for the time being, would be to have someone
to indirectly encourage him to avail himself of this cheap
money. In other words, suggest that he start refunding approxi-
mately twelve million 6'1/4s due serially that are now outstanding
for a 5% coupon at a saving of approximately 1-1/4%, or $150,000.00
annually.
He no doubt will avail himself of this opportunity, which
would naturally force him to register under the Securities Exchange
Commission and would give you a clearer picture of what his
financial structure really looks like.
In the meantime I will keep you posted in the event that
I run on to any other angles that will help solve this most annoying
problem.
Respectfully yours,
