Goddard blames Senator Thomas Collier Platt for interfering in the appointment. Goddard writes of the “malign influence” Platt exerts. Goddard is worried that his business will suffer because the Jewish American community will hold him responsible for the slight to Marks. Goddard asks that Roosevelt confer with him on other appointments even though he has passed on Marks.
