ZANUCK (In Formation) BENEFIT OF THE NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR INFANTILE PARALYSIS BASIL O'CONNOR, President COMMITTEE HEADQUARTERS 9 ROCKEFELLER PLAZA NEW YORK 20, NY. COLUMBUS 5-7460 October 16, 1955 Mr. W. Hugh Peal 60 Crammercy Park New York, N. Y. Dear Mr. Peal: Franklin D. Roosevelt is still alive in the hearts and minds of people everywhere regardless of political affiliation. If you count yourself among the legion of Americans who agree with us that his memory should be kept alive, I ask you to join with us as a member of the Honorary Committee of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Birthday Memorial. This Committee, to which the late Mr. Roosevelt bequeathed his birthday, is an outgrowth of the Birthday Balls with which America has traditionally honored our late President each January 50th. Since it has served to combat Infantile Paralysis, this observance has been charged with a purpose and has grown steadily year by year to a high position in our country. With my assurance that membership carries with it no Obligation, may I hope for your early acceptance of my invitation to join the Honorary Committee. zSincerely yours, Robert E. Sherwood
