Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt sends Maria Longworth Storer’s amusing letter to Alice Lee. He feels things worked out for the best for the Storers. Roosevelt comments on the Police Board changes. A. T. Mahan’s recent article is noble, as are those of Hilary A. Herbert and John Robert Procter.
