R 2.23 goll September 24, 1945 Dear Mr. Brod: In answer to your recent letter relative to the good health and shape of the President. I'm glad to report him in good health and very excellent as to his shape. He has gained approximately eight pounds I in the last two months and seven of that eight is right smack in the middle. I would suggest that you ease up the waistband of the trousers a little bit, also suggest that you ease the top of the double- breasted coat just slightly. Sincerely, HARRY H. VAUGHAN Brigadier General, U. S. Army Military Aide to the President Mr. Stephen Brodd,# 505 Victor Building, 10 and Main Streets, Kansas City, Missouri. XPP71-A
