Hon. Woodrow Wilson,
Washington, D.C.
Dear Sir:-
Enclosed please find clipping from the Editorial pages of the Los Angeles Times, and my answer to the effusion - This being a Republican City, the papers are not just to the administration. However we sometimes resent insults to our President, as well as to Southern people.
I have received numerous messages thanking me. You no doubt will call to mind my father-in-law, Chas. H. Smith "Bill Arp," of Ga.
Respectfully Yours,
(Mrs. F. C.) Mary Hammond Smith.
