Wilmington, N.C. Aug. 21, 1919

Gov. T. W. Bickett
Raleigh, N.C.

At a mass meeting held in the county court house attended by representative citizens from all classes of the community a resolution was passed asking that a representative of the department of justice be sent to Wilmington immediately to investigate well substantiated charges of profiteering in rents and the necessaries of life. We urge that you use your utmost endeavors to have this done immediately.
