General Notes

Note

Typewritten letter with handwritten signature by Arthur Woods: Dear Mr. Bernays, I want to let you know how highly I think of the work you have been doing for us. The results you got were quick, and grew in steadily increasing measure. You have shown that you know how to reach all classes of the public and to get the facts before them. You have been resourceful and have steadily impressed me as doing more and better work that I had any reason to expect. The success of the work we have been trying to do here depend more than on any other single thing on having the people of the country realize the sitaution and cheerfully take up themselves the duty of looking after the welfare of men discharged from the service. Your work has been instrumental in getting the facts before the public in a way as to help enormously in bringing this about. With best regards and many thanks, I am Sincerely yours, Arthur Woods (signature handwritten) Assitant to the Secretary
