May 25, 1937.
 
 
My dear Dodd:-
 
 
 Frankly, I was delighted with your letter to Bulkley. But because you
are too honest and sincere to be a publicity expert, you did not
realize that that one sentence about the billionaire would be the one
thing in the whole letter seized on by The Press and a certain type of
false liberal like Borah.
 
 
   No one can answer the main points you made, and we are truly at
another very important crisis. Some of our Democratic "friends" do not
at all like the idea that I may keep on making speeches and radio talks
for the next three and a half years. They think that a second term
President should be duly grateful and retire into innocuous desuetude.
 
 
 
As ever yours,
 
 
 
Honorable William E. Dodd,
American Embassy,
Berlin,
Germany.
