Letter from Carlos E. Castañeda to John J. Herrera asking for Herrera's help and cooperation in making effective the work of the committee regarding Latin Americans in Houston. Castañeda states that he had referred Carter Wesley to see Herrera and discuss the matter with Herrera.

Telegram sent from Alonso S. Perales through Western Union informing John J. Herrera to tell all organizations that the Fair Employment Practice Commission (FEPC) will be closing. Perales urges Herrera to organize efforts to write to President Harry Truman, Senators Alben W. Barkley, Wallace White, and W. Lee O'Daniel, and John Connally, urging for action on Senate Bill 101. The bill covered the "return of uses to states," and would leave minority groups without protection against discrimination.
