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
