shown by a letter written by
Thomas jefferson in March,
1920, to a friend to whom he
could not pay a debt.
The original has come into the
possession of John M. Steck,
president of the Winchester His
torical Society. The depression,
of which the author of the
Declaration Of Independence com.
planned, followed the War Of
1912, and left the Jefferson
estate virtually bankrupt. The
letter reads, in part:

been more chagrined or mOrti-

obliged to inform you that my
hope of repaying this spring

crease Of 81 per cent in the num-
Der Of families in Baltimore and

noted today by Harry Greenstein,
State Emergency Relief Admins
TRAITOR.
Mr.. Greenstein also reported a

Frederick, Garrett, Howard, Kent,
