Letter from Douglas Robinson to William Loeb

Douglas Robinson tells William Loeb that General Count Arthur Cherep-Spiridovitch, who will be presented to President Roosevelt by Russian Ambassador Roman Rosen, has asked Robinson to write a letter of introduction to Roosevelt. Robinson informed Cherep-Spiridovitch that in accordance with Roosevelt’s request, he does not write letters of introduction. Robinson writes this letter, however, so that when Cherep-Spiridovitch is presented to Roosevelt, Loeb can tell him that Robinson and Corinne Roosevelt Robinson knew Cherep-Spiridovitch in Moscow. Robinson clarifies that they do not know Cherep-Spiridovitch well and that the letter is only written for diplomatic reasons.
