Dwight D. Eisenhower typed letter signed, dated 7 October 1963 on his personal stationery. Here, Eisenhower writes to his brother, Edgar, discussing a retired Rear Admiral, Chester Charles Ward, and his hysteria over Communism: ''...I assure you that there is nothing complacent in the attitude I take toward the Communist menace and, indeed, I applaud every effort to keep the nation alert and prepared to take care of ourselves. I do think that in this particular case, however, the Admiral has taken too much counsel of his fears -- he tends to be a bit hysterical. Even though almost everything he says has a grain of truth as its foundation, some of the interpretations he makes on insufficient information strike me as being on the extreme side. Devotedly, [signed] D.E.'' Letter measures 7'' x 10.25'' on one page with two holes punched at top and minor toning. Near fine condition.
