Honorably discharged soldiers, sailors, and marines shall have five points added to their earned ratings in examinations for entrance to the classified service.

I shall appreciate it if you will express my cordial congratulations to the Young Men's Christian Association of the City of New York on its eightieth birthday.

Your recognition of the importance of maintaining such agencies at maximum strength and efficiency under prevailing conditions and your enterprise in doing so, merits the grateful recognition of the community.

Yours faithfully, HERBERT HOOVER

I have been interested to learn of your plans for a Building Merchandise Exposition as part of a systematic effort to promote modernization and restoration of existing properties for business and residence purposes.

Such activity is an important supplement to new construction and is also desirable as a measure to promote employment.
