Western Union Telegram from Ray Trautman to Isabel DuBois.
Date
November 27, 1946.
Description
Isabel DuBois was in charge of the Navy’s Library Service during World War II. Although many publishers complained that DuBois unfairly criticized aspects of the ASE program, the Army’s Chief Librarian, Ray Trautman, supported DuBois and believed she did an outstanding job. When DuBois left the Navy, Trautman sent her this telegram. It reads: “A well done to you for your achievements in planning and directing a great library service.”
