United States Senate
Washington
Feb. 2, 1939
My Dear Mother:
Just a word of love
to you. I am on my
way to a sub-com. meeting
dealing with the common
defence by acquiring stock
of strategic and critical raw
materials, concentrates and
alloys essential to the needs
of industry for the manufacture
of supplies for the armed forces
and the civilian population
in time of a national emergency
How great is the emergency
now?
It seems as if we have
two emergencies grow
where one grew before
the New Deal-
I do hope you have
recovered-
Best love,
Warren
