TLS signed “Jerry Ford,” two pages, 8 x 10.5, Congress of the United States letterhead, January 9, 1962. Letter to a constituent, Mrs. Cosmo Annerino. In part: “As you know, this decision to close the Grand Rapids office…was made by the VA under the Kennedy Administration. As a member of the Congress I was not consulted about the proposed closings to the district office and I had no advance information relative to the closing of the Grand Rapids office…I know it will result in considerable hardship to many veterans in Western Michigan…I am amazed that the Kennedy Administration, which should have given considerable study to this matter, cannot understand the need for this personal contact…I am, therefore, today writing Mr. Robert M. Fitzgerald, Regional Director of the VA at Detroit, urging…that the VA supply additional service to Grand Rapids…It is apparent that one man one day a week cannot supply the needed services.” In fine condition.
