When I think of the numbers of | Monroe County. residents _ who were abliged to subsist on WPA’ from 1933 02, .I.personally am tremendously impressed to learn tiat Messrs. Trevor, Shaw and Snvith currently induce the same moonle to invest more than $38,- 000 per month in building. up their own personal, financial se- curity. Thank you also for using the, quotes in the final paragraph of the story. It seems that some of the people go down to the: bank and ecdésh in their bonds sixty days after they have. started’ to buy them. The last paragraph of the story is intended to detract from this procedure which. of conrse, is iust a waste of time and needless expense. For vour information I under- stond that the three gentlemen named in the newspaper story are, going: to analvze bond rec- ords and confer with the few in- dividuals who habitually buy the #) Bonds! only‘ to cash’ them. So we see. your story was very helpful ‘to’ all’of us ‘and if I am able to get back to Cayo Hueso in Dw Street and made sdli¢ita-” Jue, I shall’ certainly drop in on PAS. 2 JIA aa MEMPHIS HARD HIT B rs Y¥ WORST ICE STORM IN 77 YEARS ¥ i Sin Bed ‘With Ordnance Company In Japan.
