Senate Chamber
April 10, 1940.
My Dear Mother:
The world is in a He- of a
fix!! Can it be that Russia
and Germany are about to
seize all of Europe and
Asia not occupied by
strong powers?
It behooves us to get
ready for anything.
The occupation of Denmark
and Norway by the Germans
furnishes fuel for the
third term fire-
Senator Burke of Nebraska
lost the nomination for
a new term as Senator.
The man who succeeds him
will need to be good
to anywhere apporach
Sen. Burke's service to
his country- Though
he was a Democrat I
regret his defeat.
Best love,
Warren
