Letter from D. D. Walker to Ethan Allen Hitchcock
D. D. Walker refused to write a letter of recommendation for Mr. Smith, the collector of customs at St. Louis, Missouri. Some of Walker’s associates wrote letters for Smith as they were unaware of Smith’s poor reputation. He has asked his associates to withdraw their letters and hopes that President Roosevelt removes the entire corrupt delegation of Richard C. Kerens.
