Dear Mrs. Hall:
I have read with interest your letter of August 6th and the indicted story in the accompanying tearsheet from the Times Herald.
I agree that wisdom calls for Democrats not to fight among themselves but to concentrate on affirmative support of the principles of our party. Of course it is hardly necessary for me to state that I had nothing whatever to do with anything that happened at the Dallas County Convention, and I am not aware that I have ever extended support to “reactionary fanatics.”
(Handwritten to the right of the above paragraph, pointing towards the last sentence) Lie!
Sincerely,
[Handwritten] Lyndon B. Johnson.

Dallas, Texas,
March 22, 1955
Hon. Lyndon B. Johnson,
Senate Office Bldg.,
Washington, D.C.
Dear Senator:
I appreciate your letter of March 16th attaching copy of letter from the Democratic National Committee, signed by Clayton Fritchey. In this connection I am able to furnish the following facts:
January 8, 1955, Mr. Stanley Woodward, then Treasurer of the National Democratic Party, stopped in Dallas and spent some time with H.R. Aldredge, Jr., Chairman of the Democratic Organizing Committee. At that time, Mr. Aldredge requested from Mr. Woodward that he see what he could do to get a speaker for a fund raising dinner in Dallas; namely, senator Alben Berkley. Mr. Woodward said he would be happy to see what could be done through the Speakers Bureau. Jan. 10, Miss Kay Folger, head of the speaker’s bureau, called Mr. Aldredge, long distance, saying that Mr. Woodward had given the message about Sen. Berkley to her, and when would we like to have our dinner? Mr. Aldredge told Miss Folger that ‘We will take Senator Berkley any time he can come.” Miss Folger then said she would go ahead and arrange it and let us know the details. About two weeks later, Mr. Aldredge received a call from D.B Hardeman from Austin, Texas, saying that Miss Folger had called him with some embarrassment. She had talked to an assistant of Sam Rayburn’s who had advised her that Mr. Rayburn said no speaker would come to Texas until after the legislature in Austin was over.”
Shades of apprehension are haunting Democrats in Texas who have been sold down the river, again and again, by the Shivers Republicans. The Democrats in Texas know that you and Sam Rayburn know Allan Shivers and all the dirty politics and fraud that surround him. The thing for us to determine from the facts at our disposal and the implications to be derived from the above outlined experience, is whether or not history is about to repeat. We grow less naïve with each election.
I am sincere,

Mr. Lyndon B. Johnson,
Johnson City,
Texas
[Handwritten at top right] no answer naturally
Dear Mr. Johnson:
Reference is made to the Z-rox copy of question and answer in ACTION LINE. Dallas Times Herald 12/22/70. Like the ho-bo in the cartoon, I would like to know if you are receiving what seems to a social security retiree as exorbitant sums.
I simply cannot believe that an ex-president who happens to be in the millionaire bracket would accept such a large sum from taxes, a great portion of which is taken from business which are hard pressed to stay in business because of excessive taxes; to say nothing of taxpayers who are living on social security retirement pay.
I shall be pleased if you will advise me the truth in this matter.
Very Sincerely,
[Handwritten] (Mrs) Cordye Hall
P.S. would you be kind enough to hand the enclosed bulletin of ANOTHER MOTHER FOR PEACE to Lady Bird with my request that she join the mothers of the world in our war on war? Thank you!
[Handwritten] Copy- Mr. Harry Truman

Hon. Lyndon B. Johnson,
Vice President
Washington, D.C
Dear Mr. Johnson:
Thank you for sending me copy of your speech delivered Nov. 29th at the Medico Award Dinner honoring Adlai Stevenson. I have read the entire speech twice and I see absolutely no relevance between the occasion and your speech.
You had wonderful opportunity, it seems to me. At such affair an olive branch with a compliment to the medical advances of Russian doctors and an appeal to them to help relieve the suffering of the world might have helped Stevenson in his negotiations with these difficult people. Actually, your review of history AS YOU SEE IT will make his way even more impossible than it now is.
You say you “saw no reason to protect the Communists from the truth.”
Were you there to antagonize the Russians - or were you there to pay tribute to Adlai Stevenson?
A statesman could see my point - but maybe you are not a statesman!
Most sincerely
