The letter waxes on prudent Christmas shopping to ease clerks workload and influenza fears. It denounces pageants for war bonds, urges directed spending to aid the war debt, and criticizes English terms at the peace conference. A Jeffersonian simplicity note recalls Wilsons 1912 campaign and critiques wartime executive splendor.
