					<l>Senate Chamber</l>
					<l>Apr. 27, 1933</l>
					<l>My Dear Mother:</l>
					<l>Just a moment to</l>
					<l>express our love and tell</l>
					<l>you that we are thinking</l>
					<l>of you.</l>
					<l>I have been unusually</l>
					<l>engaged with the boundary</l>
					<l>case and extra work on</l>
					<l>the floor of the Senate.</l>
					<l>Our leader Senator</l>
					<l>Mr McNary asked me to help</l>
					<l>him with the farm relief</l>
					<l>bill &amp; so I have had to</l>
					<l>be constantly by his side</l>
				</lg>

				<lg>
					<l>keeping track of the parliamentary</l>
					<l>proceedings and all amendments.</l>
					<l>I[t] has been a trying experience</l>
					<l>to see the administration</l>
					<l>departing farther and</l>
					<l>farther from American</l>
					<l>ideals and liberty.  Every</l>
					<l>bill seems to contain</l>
					<l>some waiver of the powers</l>
					<l>and duties of the Congress</l>
					<l>and the delegation of its</l>
					<l>functions to the President.</l>
					<l>We are headed for a</l>
					<l>dictatorship which will</l>
					<l>make Mussolini blush.</l>
					<l>Love from us both.</l>
					<l>Warren</l>
