The White House, Washington, D. C.
My Dear Mr President:
Under separate cover I am sending you a small book which is
considered one of the gems of the Theosophical literature. It
is very many years since I first read it but the strength and
calm which came to me through a study of its pages has remained
with me through the years of travail of the past couple of
decades.
Your efforts are bearing fruit, the first fruit to ripen being
the restoration of confidence to a shattered mental fabric and
we look to you, with God's aid, to guide the ship of State to
a more sheltered harbour.
In appreciation of your courage and honesty of purpose I send
you this trivial gift which I hope you will accept from a very
sincere admirer.
Have you seen or read - THE TRUTH ABOUT THE SLUMP - by
A. N. Field of Nelson, New Zealand ? If you have not done so,
I am sure you should do so as it will throw much light upon
your present banking problem. Whether or not you approve of
this work, it should be on your shelves for reference. It is
certainly a valuable contribution to a study of the world's
economics. PLEASE, read it.
Very faithfully yours,
Tyson A. Pearson.

Washington, D. C.
Sir:
Rekd 4/14/33 mys
As an American citizen and former resident of Troy,
N. Y., may I be favored in acceptance by my President of the
first perfect model of the improved Finger-wheel for the Dial
telephone. For the past fifteen years I have leaned towards
invention and among of my latest ideas this new wheel was one.
I tried to have the American Telephone & Telegraph Com-
pany adopt same but up to now with no avail. I believe it to
do the job better than the one now in use, and shall make it
available to the public. With six others we have formed the
above Corperation for the purpose. Our President Mr. Thomas
J. Lane, has authorized me to give away the first two hundred
to Liberty loving Americans. Yours is number one.
This new Finger-wheel has been made to provide new
jobs. The manufacturers who made our first order have done
there part, marketing same will provide the others.
Under seperate cover you will receive this new
Finger-wheel, We will call it SANI-DIAL as you will see by
its container, taken from the word sanitary because it does
help maintain the dial in a sanitary condition with little
effort.
After you have tried it and you have seen its ad-
vantage, let me know if you will permit me to send you as
many as will be needed to equip all of the Dial Telephones
in your two homes, This is a personal offer allowed me, and
will not be used for advertisement of any form. It is an in-
centive to keep going, It is my ambition to make as many new
jobs as I can for others, for I know too well what it is to
be out of work. I hope to succeed in this new Company so that
income will permit me to make available my other ideas.
Thanking you,
Very truly yours,
Joeph a. letnel.

My dear Colonel:
Mr. Nathan P. Pechin, the Chairman of the Democratic
County Committee of this, Delaware County, has appealed to
me to do a favor for him. Why Mr. Pechin should have adopted
this course is a mystery to me, but he is such a fine fellow
and has been so friendly towardsme that I must make some
effort to comply with his request.
Mr. Pechin has had made a small gavel from the wood
of a tree from Valley Forge. This tree was brought from
Mb. Vernon and seems to have some historical significance.
Mr. Pechin desires that his great hero, the President,
accept this small token of his esteem.
Do you suppose the President would be willing to
receive Mr. Pechin and his gavel or would it be more to the
President's liking to ship him the gavel by mail or express.
My friend is a very meek, self-effacing citizen and is
most desirous that the President have this keep-sake with
as little annoyance in the presentation as possible.
If you can find time and would be good enough to
drop Mr. Pechin of 118 Walnut Avenue, Wayne, Pennsylvania
a note, telling him what to do, you will be making a
'red letter day' in his life.
If you have an opportunity, I wish you would present
my respectful compliments to the President and tell him
that throughout the three or four States I have covered
since his Inauguration, the people are behind him to a man
and are amazed at the wonders he is working.
Very sincerely yours,

Dear Mr. President:
May I have the honor of presenting to you the first copy
of the Forestry Almanac for 1933, which is just off the press.
It appears, most appropriately, at a time when the country
is witnessing with deep interest and thorough approval, the
placing, by your orders, of thousands of unemployed on jobs
in the forests and other conservation projects which will, in time,
return to the pbulic proper dividends upon the public money and
public effort expended in the work.
That all success may attend this broadminded and constructive
program is the wish I know, of many millions of Americans beside
myself.
Very sincerely yours,
Charles Lathrop Pack,
CLP/err.
