Dear Mr. Hoover

The enclosed are self-explanatory. With their return, I wonder if you will not be kind enough to let me know whether you think it would be wise for the President to decline to receive the candy on the ground of the present sugar shortage.

Sincerely yours,

JP Tumulty
Secretary to the President
