Francis J. Heney sends some letters he received from Meyer Lissner to President Roosevelt. Heney agrees with Lissner’s assessment of the information Frank H. Hitchcock may have received from anyone in Los Angeles, and adds that if he talked to Arthur G. Fisk in San Francisco, Hitchcock would also have received bad information. Heney was unable to meet with Hitchcock since he was tied up in court proceedings, but hopes to travel to Washington after municipal elections in San Francisco on November 5.
