May 13, 1935 - Truman writes: Appreciate very much your letter of the Tenth, with the clipping from the Kansas City Times, which was a little bit premature so far as the Missouri set-up is concerned. If you have read Friday and Saturday’s papers you will know by this time what Clark and I have in mind. I do not think you should be unduly alarmed. Sincerely, Harry.

June 19, 1935 - Truman writes: I appreciated very much your letter of the fifteenth, regarding Frank Oldham. I feel the same way about it, and as you know I usually weigh the situation very carefully when the opposition is talking. I had a most pleasant visit in Jefferson City, and was very happy that I got to see all the gang. I am hoping that we will get everything ironed out as it should be. Sincerely yours, Harry.

July 11, 1935 - Truman writes: Thanks very much for the clippings from the Star mailed from Excelsior Springs, and also the telegram regarding the situation at Jefferson City. The thing is now in a state where I think it will be possible to iron it out for the best interest of all concerned. I am working on it. Sincerely, Harry S. Truman.

July 19, 1935 - Truman writes: Appreciate your telegram of the Seventeenth, and I am of the opinion that Stanley Mathewsom and Annie Lockett had better stay in Cincinnati. I do not know what happened to the Holliway matter. I sincerely hope the employment set-up in Missouri may be worked out to the satisfaction of both of us, although it is in a terrible muddle right at the present time. Sincerely yours, Harry.

December 6, 1935 - Truman writes: I appreciate very highly your letter and telegram regarding Sydney Stephens. Of course I will be most happy to help in any way I possibly can. As soon as I can get to it I will have an interview with Mr. Persons on the subject and see just what he has in mind. Sincerely, Harry.

March 3, 1936 - Truman writes: I appreciate very much your note of March 1, and I was morally certain that Mr. Stephens would not resign. Sincerely Yours, Harry. Truman has added a two line handwritten postscript that reads: Thanks for your work at Jeff City on Feb. 22.

December 10, 1936 - Truman writes: I am enclosing herewith copy of letter which as been written to your friend, Mr. Herman A. Weiter of St. Louis, which is self explanatory.
