APRIL 12
Down here it was an ordinary day,
with class and M-W seminar discussion
of Civil Liberties – before going to see the
very good “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn”
I couldn’t be more shocked than
at the news of President Roosevelt’s
sudden death! Though it has been
long acknowledged as a possibility, I
doubt if many actually thought it
would happen now. I wonder what
the effect will be on our national
and world future, and pray that
it won’t result in lengthening the
war. Truman should make an
“interesting” President – I wonder
how good he’ll be though!
The usual type of letter from
Floyd in the Phillipines – and a
sweetly congratulatory one from
Mrs. Marsh of St. Mary’s.
