Dear Mr. President
I feel so strongly in the matter of handling the inward and outward bound foodstuffs from the United States that I am enclosing herewith copy of a letter which I have today addressed to Mr. Hurley, and, furthermore, the two memoranda which I handed to Colonel House prior to his departure.
I beg of you that you will take so much of your valuable time as to look these over, as I feel that co-ordination in this matter can be accomplished through no other quarter than yourself.
I am
Your obedient servant,
[Herbert C. Hoover]
