As a new Member I was deeply appreciative of his friendliness and the many helpful suggestions which he made to me during my novitiate in the House. Before I came to Congress I had known him and had numerous official contacts with him in the civic and governmental affairs of the peninsula of San Francisco. After his retirement from Congress in 1939 it was a great pleasure to me to be able to endorse him for appointment as commissioner of immigration and naturalization at San Francisco. He served with distinction in that office until it went out of existence in 1940. When Judge McGrath first came to Congress he brought with him as his secretary.
