United States Senate
Washington
June 20, 1939.
My Dear Mother:
Sen. McNary is
ill & so I am
acting floor
leader of the Minority.
The debate is on the
question whether Congress
will extend the time in
which the President
may devalue the dollar
and the maintenance of
the stabilization fund
Sen. Taft now has the floor.
We have a respit[e] from heat
which is welcome-
Sen. Ashurts has just come over
for a meeting in my corner
so au revoir-
Best love,
Warren
