TLS, one page, 7 x 8.75, White House letterhead, June 4, 1917. Wilson writes to Governor M. G. Brumbaugh of Pennsylvania. In part: “I think it would be most unfortunate for any of the states to relax the laws by which safeguards have been thrown about labor. I feel that there is no necessity for such action, and that it would lead to a slackening of the energy of the nation rather than to an increase of it, besides being very unfair to the laboring people themselves.” Light soiling and handling wear, otherwise fine condition. Auction LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
