Description

"Like everything else in life, to win in politics requires above all else hard work"

TLS as president, one page, 7.25 x 10.5, White House letterhead, December 1, 1954. Letter to Ralph Bonnell, in full: "I write you this letter in appreciation of your splendid effort during the difficult and trying days before the election. In the short while I've been involved in practical politics, I've found that the ways and means are legion and results far from predictable. But this much is sure—like everything else in life, to win in politics requires above all else hard work, based on an ardent belief in the worth of the cause. That you and so many others applied both this hard work and this dedication to the job before us last fall is, to me, the very best evidence that, in the next campaign, a progressive and dedicated Republican Party will have both the vigor and the determination to assure an overwhelming victory. Again, my thanks for all that you have done." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
