Dear dlr. Dulles#
Please, overlook this letter being adressed to your home.There is a
Attached,you will find copies of a few letters.They will oa.rtly sh~~v
the strain and enmity under which my wife: suffered for many years.The m~an~ScobLionko,
mentioned in them, is the continual irritant,I do hope that 1~~s.Houston i~ not going; to
be misled by his machinations,
You are entitled to a short resume 8f' our life before you could ju~-l;;e
impartia.lly,I am in my 75-~th year,my wife 10 years your~er.I estsblishei myself as an
Architect in 1900,Planned and built a cathedral 50 years ago. I had a fxliitful an~.i hon-
orable career.T was a wealthy man to find myself together ti~rith my wife,in a furnished
r?om,without ready funds. AND r..ot through our fault? If you will re_uistion the file,
from I~r,Houston,it migkat shed some light on the subject, I mention it only shmrtly,
that it decals with a CIA employee, or e~aployees,~rho engineered a landgrab of 1{J~000
Aare~s,who owe us now hundreds of do3_lars,,which ire miss,
Over a year ago, Isuffered a stroke of my entire right side.Since then
my wife was my nurse but she is breaking under the strain especially now,irhen both
of us suffer frean influenza. It is a reprehensible and unameriean situation against
two sick people?
A few days age~lAr;Houston xrote,in which he disclaimed any responsibility
but sympathized with vur plight: It seems to me,that the CIA should not be carrying
an added burden through the inhuman landgrab of an employee or employees,
My wife joins me in the hopre of an is~partial and human and just revie~r
of the entire case,I did not have the honor of a personal hearing by Mr.Haustan,I do
ask you for sate,
~rs,de Bobula just mentions to me that she was ifl the 1911 class of
Bryn Mawr together with Margaret Du11es,She does not know her present address,
I am, sincerely,

Dear E~rs.DeBebu].a:
Although you are persistent in your unwarrmted taetiss with respect to the l~au.soleu:a,
nevertheless,I am enelasing herewith ~2rs. Walters shack in the ausi ?f X50.00,
It would seom to me that your ccntiriu.ed attacks to distress Mrs,Ward are entirely *it~*
out ~ustifiaation,either iri law,faet or gala?
Let us baps that the New Year will bring Y~ a greater sense of propriety its, this aerr-
nection. years very tru].y,SCOBZ,I0NK0 & FRANK

$aar Mr,Scob ian'~m: Yrs.Eurana DeBobula has forwarded to me Tour letter to her of12-15,
I ate at a loss to understand the statesaentg made in year letter in reference to her at-
tempts to distress Mrs,Ward,
I helped her prepare the answer jn the pending action in Pittsburgh to construe the gills
involvedand to ad3ust the right+e of the parties with respect to the cemetery,I scruld not
help but came to the conclusion that lAxe,Eurana DeBobula is the comer i.n fee of at least
one-forthof the cemetery plats involved as well as the .n~ausoleuar.
In the District of Cc~luffibia a mausoleum as 3.e.rge as this one has been described to me ~t
would cost rover ffi5O,OOO?OO to build,
If I am not mistaken iri the conclusion which I have reached,then it would seeffi that Mrs.
DeBcbula has a substantial interes~,Maybe,if B~rs,Ward would malts ~4rs.DeBobula a satin--
factory offer for her interest in the cemetery sites and mausoleum. it might solve tre
problems of both parties.ON ~dover~ber 21c.,1952 I wrote to Mr, David Roth at Pittsburgh and
made the same suggestion to him,but I have ytt to hear frame him.I d? honestly feel that
s?me effort at a reasonable settlement should be made and I would like to hear your
views with regard to the situation. Very tru]tiy yours, JOSEPH C.SURACI {Signed)

Dea Mr, Scoblionko, ~january twenty-five Nineteenhundred fiftythree.
Your letter must be refuted before you,yeurself,believe the contents, ~;rs,i~ralter must
have had heart failure before sending her sister fifty dollars for Christmas,Yvur heading
of the letter,-n In re b+linrLie D,Ward vs. Eurana ~ffock DeBobula~r is erronec~us.I wager ~13r-s.
Waltarweeps ?~ver sane poor Korean that she never saw while sending her blood what right-

As for Mrs.Ward,her awn conscience is distressi,ti her,She i~~g set for his divorce,
to turn aver three articles bel inA tc 8 gncred a Newyork Ccyurt Order

law,But,I Ball on the Higher Law to des,1 with her.What mother could put her smn"Bud~r,crut
of his ~ home before Thanksgiving with a pregnant wife? She could and did. OF a?urse,
her conscience must distress her. If you are asking hod not to be God,you are
asking in vain,I put all of you in His Pewer, ffiTM~rr~ If any man shall add unto these
things~God shall add unto him the plagues--- and if .any rx~an shall take away from these
words,God shall take away his part out of the book of life,ri~rn I am,
