Dr. Fred D. Patterson
President
Tuskegee Institute
Tuskegee Institute, Alabama

Dear Dr. Patterson:

Many congratulations both to you and the Phelps Stokes Fund on your being elected its director. No one can question the rightness of the selection, although one must get himself accustomed to the idea of Tuskegee Institute without you.

I hope your being in New York will give us many opportunities to see each other.

With best wishes to you and Mrs. Patterson, I remain

Sincerely yours,
