1 Dear Fred:
I just returned from the meeting of the
American Thoracic Surgeons. As I was unable, on ·
account of posted operations, to go to the American
Surgical, I did not hear of your election as President
‘ of the American Surgical until I talked with Dan
— Elkins on Tuesday.
I want to congratulate you on this high and
_ well deserved honor.
I I hope you and Edith are well. Frances
joins me in sending our best wishes to both of you.
l Cordially yours,
gl Jez-/Q
