“My dear Mr. President:
“親愛的總統(tǒng)先生：
There have been many thousands of letters, telegrams and cards sent to me and my children which have brought great comfort and consolation to all of us. This outpouring of affectionate thought has touched us all deeply and we wish it were possible to thank each and every one individually.My children and I feel, in view of the fact that we are faced with the paper shortage and are asked not to use paper when it can be avoided, that all we can do is to express our appreciation collectively.
我和孩子們收到了幾千份的信件、電報 和卡片，這給我們帶來了很大的安慰。 他們充滿深情的話語深深地感動了我 們，我們希望能感謝他們每一個人。我 和孩子們覺得，考慮到我們?nèi)狈垙垼?國家要我們盡量節(jié)省用紙，我們所能做 的就是一起表達(dá)我們的感激之情。
We would therefore consider it a great favor if you would be kind enough to express our gratitude for us. Sincerely, Eleanor Roosevelt. Now, there has been some question as to where I stand on various things, particularly Bretton Woods. And I am for it. We need an international monetary setup. And I would have supported that proposition had I stayed in the Senate, and I would have done everything I possibly could as Vice President to help the President get it through the Senate.
因此我們想如果你能為我們表達(dá)一下我 們的謝意就是幫了我們大忙了。
I am for it all the way. I hope that is plain enough. If you want to ask me anything, I will try to answer; and if I don’t know, I will tell you.
