Description
In this two-page letter, Bird thanks Snavely for the information on "devious patterns of the NYA." Bird suggests the use of some sort of a badge to be worn by the students who are enlisted in the reserve units to indicate that they too are doing their best to serve their country. In regards to the Japanese American situation, Bird writes "I have never been more impressed with the reality of Demacracy than I have as I have come and gone from the assembly centers."
