United States Senate
Washington
July 10, 1940.
My Dear Mother:
We will complete debate and
vote on the Knox nomination to
Sec. of Navy today and I intend
to get home tomorrow if
possible.
The business of the Senate
tomorrow is such that both
Sen. Barkley, Majority leader,
and Sen. McNary, Minority leader,
believe it is safe for me
to leave tonight.
The Record of June 9 contains
in the Appendix copy of the
4th of July proceedings at the
World Fair. The Record of July 10
will contain some remarks
by me regarding public
opinion in Vermont regarding
national Defense.
I hope to get up to
see you soon after my
return to Vermont-
Best love,
Warren-
