    Autograph letter signed. Tells him that the Power to the People that he sent has not yet arrived. Reports that orders for the Dorrco company have slowed and that she was encouraged by his assurance that the outlook was good for the future. Says she plans to go by home for Barbara’s [her sister] wedding after leaving Boston on her way to Denver. Tells that she goes around with a notebook at the plant and that she is now at the foundry, learning as much as she can from Chick Johnson. Says with the help of her friend Boyd Merkley, she can now follow an order from start to finish and that she is meeting the few men in the organization that she didn’t already know.
