President Roosevelt to the Secretary of State
Hyde Park, N. Y.,
September 5,
1934.
Dear Cordell: Will you see Frank Walsh on St. Lawrence Treaty? I think he should participate in any further plans for negotiations with Canada.
He is as you know Chairman of the N. Y. State Authority—& the State owns the bed of the River!
I want to put the Treaty through.
As ever
F[ranklin] D. R[oosevelt]
