Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Susan Dexter Dalton Cooley

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Susan Dexter Dalton Cooley

Theodore Roosevelt writes Susan Dexter Dalton Cooley to express his thoughts on an article by G. Lowes Dickinson. Roosevelt believes that the way Dickinson is trying to develop an international league will not work. Such a league must be based on military force. To refuse to fight results in less peace, not more. The United States should have offered help to Belgium to maintain peace. He does agree countries should come together on account of their race or desire to unite.
