Letter from Franklin Murphy to Theodore Roosevelt
Governor Murphy regrets that a false report is circulating regarding President Roosevelt’s attitude toward corporate power. Around a year ago, Murphy spoke with Roosevelt on the topic and later had a discussion with friends. Murphy does not believe there was anything dangerous in the discussion, and the story that is circulating has been highly distorted.
