TLS as president, two pages, 7 x 8.75, White House letterhead, December 27, 1920. Letter to architect Charles Z. Klauder, best known for his 'Cathedral of Learning' at the University of Pittsburgh. In part: "We are very much pleased with the rearrangements you are effecting of our rooms at the western end of the second story, and the private stair is just what I desired. But you have assigned to the valet the room which I had intended for a billiard room. The staircase will be none the less useful and in the right place, but I don't like to give up to the valet a room which would be so suitable for the use I have mentioned. Your plan for an entrance to the sitting room above the porte cochere through a wide arch centering on the upper portion of the great hall strikes us as admirable. We hope that you will carry it out." In fine condition.
