March 12, 1953

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

Dear Dr. Patterson:

May I wish you success in the new post you have accepted.

I don't know what the duties of Educational Director 
of the Phelps Stokes Fund entails but it is hard to imagine a higher post [[strikethrough-than]] for one of your race than President of Tuskegee.

I launched the magazine Dixie Business in 1929 the year after you came to Tuskegee as head of the Veterinary Division so I have noted press reports from time to time over the past quarter century.

With all good wishes, I am

Sincerely, 
[[signature-Hubert Lee]]
