  Things are moving along well. Brown met Joe (____) and had a long talk with him. Joe spoke of (____) Page's resignation and agreed with Brown that there's nothing to worry about. If he complains, Hurley should ask why he withheld his resignation so long. (____) Brisbane's editorial was taken very lightly. Fred. Essary pointed out that keeping the ships for future war was absurd in as much as under Hurley's plan American ships could be commandeered at any time for war use. Hoe thought Hurley's plan was great and well received. The plan is hailed as a masterful blending of constructive ideas and will meet all of the anticipatory criticisms that had been launched by enemies of the administration, and will commend itself to all persons who are thinking not only of politics, but the patriotic development of America's merchant marine. Brown thinks that Hurley shouldn't regret about delaying his speaking tour. Brisbane's editorial is the only one Brown has seen. The farmer's organization statement holds even less water that the Brisbane editorial. Brown doesn't believe it reflects the opinion of the farmers. The editorial and other comment is overwhelmingly favorable. Brown hopes Hurley will have a nice vacation in Florida. Ty. L.S. : 1p : 4to 4

  Brown's association with Hurley will always be a happy and inspiring memory.

• CHUR #51 Correspondent : Illinois Division of Highways- S.E. Bradt 7p (2)

• CHUR #51 Letter : Bradt, S. E., Springfield, Illinois to Edward Nash Hurley, Washington District of Columbia 1918/0620
  In reply to Hurley's letter, when it was determined to use the federal and state funds upon the Lincoln Highway it was decided to request the counties along the route to contribute a part of the cost. The request for levying only one-half of the amount each year for two years was because the inability of most of the countries to levy a larger sum. The appropriation made by the federal government was for the improbement of post roads. On the Lincoln Highway a certain percentage of the roads in each county is not post roads, there roads were selected for construction by the county, leaving the balance of the roads, to be built with the federal and state funds in conformity with the federao appropriation. It was decided thta the section in Du Page county should be built by the county and should start at the west city limits of the city of Wheaton and extend westerly. Only one-half of the money of Du Page county will be available in 1918; thus it was necessary to determine which part of the 31/2 miles would be built in 1918 and which part in 1919. It was decided to select in all of the counties for construction in 1918 that portion of the road that was in worst condition. Bradt thinks it was the logical thing to do and his engineers seem to have followed these instructions. They have advertised for bids upon the western two miles of the 31/2 mile section. In their advertisement, they have included the balance of the federal aid road in Du Page county from the county section to the Kane county line. Because of delays, it became apparent that they could not improve the entire one hundred miles involving the Lincoln Highway. Improvement of earth and impassible roads would furnish a road from Clinton to Chicago that would be usable at all times for both local and government use. This policy would serve the government and no particular group was taken into consideration. Bradt has not heard from (____) Voshell but Voshell is familiar with the situation and would agree with Bradt's policy. Ty. L.S. : 3pp : 4to 2

  Hurley thanks Ardrey for writing him; it was very interesting to Hurley. Ty. Carbon Copy : 1p : 4to 1
• CHUR #58 Letter : (Ardrey, R. L., Chicago, (Illinois) to E(dward) N(ash) Hurley, Washington D(istrict of) C(olumbia) 1918/0423
  Ardrey wonders why Chicago does not help Hurley's undertaking; it has perfect location for building ocean ships. Ardrey's object in writing is to suggest that enemy influence is very strong in Chicago and appears in unexpected places. This could be the reason why ships aren't being built in Chicago. When Ardrey did some work for the Foreign Trade Committee of the Illinois Manufacturers Association, he was nagged to death on it. He got in a love spat with (John) Glenn. Hurley spent a lot of time, a while back, helping Marcus S. Hill organize his Russian syndicate. The German secret service "got" him and his letters to Glenn never reached their destination. Ardrey helped organize another big company for Russian trade but after a successful first year the same mysterious influence "got" it. In many other matters in Chicago, this same influence has been all powerful. This can't be just an accident. Ardrey has a line on some of these people and might steer around some of these obstructive difficulties, and get some ship building work under way in Chicago. If Hurley could exert a little influence, Ardrey could have any kind of a company Hurley wants. Ardrey will do all he can, but can't afford to spend any time or money on it. Hurley honored The national Marine League of the USA at the New York address. This is an alien "stool pigeon" under enemy control. Ty. L.S. : 2pp : 4to 3
