The reception I received was extremely encouraging. To me it was an indication of the interest of the people in their government, and a reflection of approval of my Administration's efforts their behalf. My plans for a return to Florida this weekend have been completed, and I am looking forward to meeting many new people. The personal appearance of the candidate is essential, but it is friends like you who spark the campaign. I want to express my special thanks to you for your loyalty and dedication. I am confident that on March 9 the voters will register solid support for our programs.” In overall fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelopes.
