I cordially approve the plan to pay tribute to Professor Albert Einstein on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of his birthday.

Mr. Rhoads has accepted the appointment as chief of the Indian Bureau, which I think is rather a notable case of public service from a man who makes a very large sacrifice to leave one of the most important posts a man can have in his local community to take over a bureau in Washington.

It is the right and duty of Congress to investigate and formulate legislation.

I owe to them a larger obligation for the courtesy of these dinners for over 17 years.

The objects to be gained by cooperation within an administration between the administration and Congress, between the administration and the leaders of our economic and social forces, are not the pawns of politics; they are not the headlines of the newspapers.
