President Roosevelt tells William Belmont Parker that “under no circumstance should it be said that I was responsible for that article.” While Arthur Wallace Dunn has been associated with Roosevelt and can substantially express his feelings, it is out of the question for Roosevelt to accept any responsibility for the article. It must not be said that the article is authoritative, and Roosevelt requests that it not be published if he is said to be connected with it.
