                                       Oct. 6th, 1931.
 
Hon. Franklin D. Roosevelt,
   
     Warm Springs, Georgia.
 
Dear Franklin:
 
                  I am enclosing herewith a copy of letter 
Just reoeived from the Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corpo
ration in reference to the pole in the rear of the Tompkins
house, and also a copy of the letter I sent you on August
4th in reference to the same pole, to which I have never 
received any reply.
 
                  I think it would be much cheaper to pay
the Company $25.00 to put in a new pole and remove the danger 
than to run the risk of paying a much larger sum in case of 
some serious accident.
 
               Kindly let me know what you think about it.
 
                              Sincerely yours,
