Dear Claude:
It was particularly gratifying to me to have an
opportunity to talk with you last Tuesday, and I appreciate
your taldng the time to come down for luncheon here* I
hope you will have an opportunity to do so often,
I wish there were more members of the Congress
who took an interest, as you do, in these monetary and fiscal matters which, though complicated and difficult to
dramatise, are nevertheless of crucial importance in a
capitalistic democracy. X am very glad that you wish to
turn your attention, busy though you are with so many other
matters, to some oftiieseunderlying economic problems*
Thank you for sending me the copy of your inspiring address at the memorial exercises for President
Boosevelt before the joint session of the Florida Legislature* It was interesting to read that significant exchange of letters which you had with him a few days before
his death. I had seen some reference to them in the press,
but had not seen the full text before.
With best regards,
Sincerely yours,

The Honorable Claude Pepper,
United States Senate,
Washington 25, D. C»

Dear Mr

Just a note to tell you how much I enjoyed being with
you for luncheon Tuesday. I wish we could get together
more often*
I am eagerly looking forward to a study of the two books
you so graciously presented to me. I know I shall find
them most helpful and enlightening. Many thanks to you.
All good wishes and kindest regards.
Since
