Dear Doctor Allen:

I just thought I would take time out for a minute to
tell you that I read the Daily Kansan and otherwise keep
up on you and your work pretty well. I want to add my
word of encouragement to your ever-lastingly keeping watch
for those things which destroy. I am referring now to your
crack at the gamblers. We need more men who are willing to
fight the good fight in everyday living. I know it is no
particular fun and I know it takes just as much nerve as it
does to'take’&S machine gun nest over in burope. I just
wanted you to know that out in the quiet places you are
heard and the effect of your work is felt and appreciated.
My theory is that it is tonic for those who would not begin
to stay in line otherwise unless they had somebody who was
willing to give them a jolt once in a while.

With best wishes for your work and for our Kansas
University always, I am,
