WASHINGTON

My dear Mr. Hoover

The protests against the appointment of Mr. Stearns of Colorado as coal and food administrator for the state seem to me to have a great deal of substance. If it is not too late to reconsider the matter, I am sure you will wish to take it up afresh.

Cordially and sincerely yours,
(Signed) WOODROW WILSON
