TLS signed “John,” one page, 8 x 10.5, House of Representatives letterhead, March 7, 1950. Letter to Brendon Shea, treasurer of the Washington Cooperative Bank, in full: "This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of March 1st, relative to your opposition to the middle income housing bills, S. 2246 and H. R. 6618. In reply, I wish to thank you for your kindness in forwarding me your views on this particular legislation. However, I must advise you that I am definitely in favor of such legislation and believe it is absolutely necessary in view of the continuing critical housing shortage which not only affects the low-income groups, but those with moderate incomes as well. I am sorry that our views on these bills do not coincide, but I do appreciate your writing me." He adds a handwritten postscript: "I am glad to hear from you, Brendon." In fine condition, with toning from prior display. Encapsulated and graded by PSA/DNA as "NM-MT 8."
