TLS as president, one page, 7 x 9, White House letterhead, February 24, 1936. Letter to Senator Fletcher. In full, 'I have carefully checked all the figures and it is really impossible to go ahead with the Canal project very much further under the Work Relief Act of 1935. Therefore, Congressional action is really necessary. Don't forget that the amount was included in the Budget.' In fine condition, with some scattered light soiling, light mirroring from premature folding and expected mailing folds. RRAuction COA.
