June 21, 1943. Hon. Franklin D. Roosevelt The White House Washington, D. C. Dear Franklin: Last winter it twice became necessary to hire Waelde the welder to thaw out the waper pipe leading from the well to the house on the Dumphy place occupied by Arnold Berge. The distance between the house and the well, which is in the chicken house, is about 100 feet and the present pipe now runs part way under an old wood house used as a garage. I think it would be a good idea to dig a new trench below the frost and run a new pipe direct from the well to the house to avoid further freezing. Kindly let me know what you think about it. Sincerely yours, Franklin Roosevelt |
