Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt has received the letter sent by Margaret M. McGarr with news of her nephew passing the examination to be considered for a position on the police force, but as he has no professional connection to the Police Department at present, he cannot involve himself in finding a position for Miles. He will write to someone on the Board on behalf of Miles.
