President Roosevelt would like to speak with Commissioner of Labor Neill about his report on stockyards and meat packing once Neill and James Bronson Reynolds have gotten it in suitable shape. He would also like to discuss the report with Neill and representatives of the Department of Agriculture. Roosevelt believes the matter should not be acted on hastily, as it will have far-reaching effects.
