My dear Mr. Hoover

In reply to your telegram of March 6th, I am very sorry to say that it has not been possible to arrange for you to see the President. He has a cold and, upon the advice of his physician, he is keeping to his room and denying himself to callers.

I wonder if you cannot conveniently write to the President on the matter you wished to take up.

Sincerely yours,
JP Tumulty
Secretary to the President


Mr. Herbert C. Hoover
71 Broadway,
New York City.
