435. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT  Excellent T.L.S., 1p., 4to., on Executive Chamber stationery, Warm Springs, Ga., Nov. 30, 1929, to Basil O'Conner. Roosevelt writes his former law partner "...That is news to me about the Roosevelt Trust Company...while it is perfectly right and proper to name Trust Companies, banks, insurance companies, hotels, and palaces of pleasure after George Washington, Andrew Jackson, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln, it is rubbing it in a bit when they take the name of families which are very much alive at the present day...a statesman ought to be dead at least two generations before public baths and speakeasies are named after him...". Two file holes in the left margin, "received" stamp at upper right, else fine.$1,500 - 2,000
