Collection contains two letters from U.S. Senator Claude A. Swanson of Va., and one letter from U.S. Senator Nathan Goff of W. Va., in response to requests from Mrs. Everett for admission cards to the reserved gallery of the Senate Chamber. In his letter of Dec. 3, Senator Swanson says that since the declaration of war, no general passes had been issued for admission to the galleries of the Senate. Instead, each Senator received five cards of admission daily to distribute at his own discretion, provided the President was not addressing Congress.
