 Dearest Mom & Dad,

             I received your wire yesterday and you can’t imagine my thrill getting it.  I was very much surprised but very happy.

             As you see, it takes even a long while for telegrams to go thru. I have written just about every day so you should begin to get a steady stream of letters.  They aren’t very interesting yet but some of these days we will move to where I should have something to write about. Our CENSORED is just about intact so we can use it and I will be very glad about that.  By the way, in the May twenty-second issue of Saturday Evening Post will give you a very interesting story and I am sure you would enjoy the significance of it.  I hope you read it very carefully.  CENSORED

             I am tickled Mary came over.  Tell me more about the visit and what you think of the situation.

            Bye now!

                                                                                                 Love,

                                                                                                 Son
