My dear Mrs. Bird: I am deeply grieved to learn of the death of your brother, the universally beloved Father Francis P. Duffy.

Executive Order No. 4610, approved March 10, 1927, as amended by Executive Order No. 4833, March 19, 1928, and by Executive Order No. 5001, November 23, 1928, is revoked effective July 1, 1932.

I earnestly hope that this may be done.

There is another phase of the bill as passed which is disheartening.
