One postcard from E. Arlen to Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead dated October 23, 1973. Arlen supports the impeachment of President Nixon. Arlen believes that "Nixon is as unable to govern as he would be if he had had a total stroke…Impeach him before a big international crisis, and only Nixon will fall. Leave him and his administration and orderly government itself may fall later."
