Dear Phog:

The first thing I want to do is apologize for the
delay in answering your letter of March 30. It arrived
while I was in Texas and I was here only a couple of days.
Have just returned and am leaving again for St. Louis this
afternoon, and will not return to my office until after our
annual meeting next Tuesday.

I want to discuss the possibility of our working
something out for Elwyn Dees with Harold Schmidt before
making a definite reply to you. Want to assure you I will
do everything possible to get something lined up for him.

No doubt I will be in Kansas City sometime within the next
month or two, and I shall be very glad to let you know in
advance so Mr. Dees can drop over to see me. I will do

this regardless of the outcome of my discussion with Schmitty.

I flew to Culver for Easter and had a most enjoyable
visit. Everybody seemed to be quite enthusiastic at the way
their sons were getting along, and to me it was indeed nice
to have an opportunity of visiting with my own boy.

Blanch and Mary Louise had a nice visit with your
daughter on the west coast. They feel she is not only attract-
ive but a very capable and talented girl. I know you must be
very proud of her. I hope some time this summer we will all
be able to get together again. We have often discussed the
nice time we had with you and your family last year.

Thanking you for your many favors and with kindest
regards, I am

Sincer P
