THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON March 6, 1950 Dear Hinie: I am looking for that cane -- it hasn't arrived yet! If it is made out of Osage orange hedge, it ought to be heavy enough for business. I suppose Professor Jacobson's disserta- tion on Israel was worth listening to. He has been over there, and he ought to know something about the situation. I hope that the Post Office matter has been properly straightened out. I don't suppose political matters ever will be in eastern Jackson County until I come home and take a personal hand in straightening them out and that probably won't be for two or three more years yet. Sincerely yours, Mr. Edgar G. Hinde United States Post Office Independence TRUMAN Missouri Country NARA
