Politician who served as secretary of war under Woodrow Wilson (1871–1937). ALS, one page, 7 x 10.25, personal letterhead, November 14, 1930. Letter to Edwin Arthur Elsbach. In full: “If the recent successes of the Democratic Party mean that there is a returning to the American people some of the inspiration and idealism we had in the sacrificial days of the War, then the rejoicing should have no mere partisan tinge. As a people we are so great that I know we shall someday exert the leadership inherent in us, and bless the world by pointing the real paths of Peace.” In fine condition, with mild scattered toning. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, filled out in Baker’s hand. RR Auction COA.
