Letter from Henry Cunningham to Theodore Roosevelt
Henry Cunningham sends Theodore Roosevelt a copy of a the song he wrote in an effort to combat the growing problem of sailors being insulted by hotel keepers while in uniform. Cunningham believes the resulting resentment and indignation felt by sailors is leading to more and more desertions. Any suggestions Roosevelt has regarding the song will be much appreciated by Cunningham.
