My dear Mr. President:
Louis D. Brandeis
Honorable Woodrow Wilson,
The White House,
Washington, DC
An oval stamp with the words “the white house, received apr 30 1913” is located in the top right corner of the page.
My dear Mr. President:
With your permission, I will defer for about a week answering your most kind letter of the 24th tendering me the Chairmanship of the Commission on Industrial Relations; as the Interstate Commerce Commission hearings on our New England transportation monopoly are absorbing my whole attention for the present.
Meanwhile I shall be glad to have Mr. Tumulty send me a copy of the Act creating the Commission.
Louis D. Brandeis
Honorable Woodrow Wilson,
The White House,
Washington, DC
