December 2nd, 1941 Again here on my way to Lake land, Florida. The day is a dark misty one, and a little above the freezing point. Facing across to P.R. Left New Haven 9 A.M. ^ Left the Pullman R.R. in N.Y. at 12:30, when I entered a Pullman [illegible] all the way to Lakeland. My P.R.-Pullman fare this year is $57.45. This is $7.70 more than last due to railroad rates. Securities did it for the benefit of war and Our Country. On getting to Washington the skies are clearing and there is a little sunshine at the Capitol of Our Country. This is at 4:25 P.M. The Pullman during the day was about 1/3 occupied, but at Richmond all of the (cars appeared) to be taken. Evidently on the public is going via coach, and get some in the Pullman or at night.
