Letter from John Claflin to Theodore Roosevelt

President John Claflin of the H. B. Claflin Company acknowledges receipt of a memorandum on currency reform from United States Treasurer Charles H. Treat. As requested, Claflin sends suggestions to President Theodore Roosevelt. He does not think forming an association of Clearing House banks will be feasible nor does he concur on the taxes Roosevelt is proposing. He suggests consulting with Frank A. Vanderlip and Charles A. Conant, the “best informed members of the Chamber of Commerce Committee.”
