THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON September 29, 1945 Dear Edgar: I appreciated very much your letters of the twenty-sixth and, of course, I would much rather see the Remington Plant operated than to have it idle. I'll see what can be done in the matter. Sorry I didn't get to visit with you longer while I was home but it seems to me now that I have no chance to do any- thing I want to do and that is a terrible situation to get into. Sincerely yours, Honorable Edgar G. Hinde Postmaster Independence, Missouri U.S 5g ARE GOVERNMENT NATIONAL RECORDS ADMIN HIVES & THIS
