President Roosevelt has been reviewing the case of Marcus Braun. He tells Secretary of State Root that while he did not think it was wise to send Braun to Hungary, the State Department did not support him as well as it should have. He expresses his concerns about immigration from Austria-Hungary, and overall considers the government there “one of the most unfriendly […] to us that there is in Europe.”
