Dear Sir:--
With reference to your letter of June
18th relative to the Duluth affair, it may interest you to know that
twelve persons have already been indicted and arrested on first degree murder
charges on account of alleged participation in the lynchings. The grand jury has
not completed its investigation and the state departments are, of course,
cooperating in every way possible.
Very truly yours,
