Dear Burt:

Thank you so such for your thoughtfulness in congratu-
lating me on the election as Governor of District 123, R. I. It 4s
nice of you to think of me, and it was also good to receive a clipping
giving Lt. Glenn Cumingham's opinion on his doubts as to liagg.

California. Well, e fellow who is better satisfied is the man who
tries not to spend everything he mms got. When it shrinks he will -
still have a little loft.

* That rocket powder: is sania I would want more
than 625,000 acres if they are going tp shoot that stuff around me.
I would be clear on the outaide of all of it. It is mighty powerful
because I have sean them shoot it, aid it is devastating. |

Antiodpating your and Mrs. Ober's early return, and
asking to be remembered kindly to her, I am

Sincerely yours,
