Hon Timothy L Woodruff
Chairman State Com
Dear Sir
Your letter received and pleased to hear from you. I enclose clipping from Buffalo courier. Gov Hughes will be showed up from now on. Republican openly state they will not vote for Hughes. If he runs as an independent I believe he would poll a very small vote, and at the worst, the republican party would be better off with a democrat Governor.
Your Very truly
F. A. Kittinger
