President Roosevelt approves of George P. McCabe’s work on a legislative amendment. He mentions a concern that Senator Albert J. Beveridge has regarding “full and free entry to the packing-houses” not being guaranteed, and asks McCabe’s opinion on the matter. If McCabe agrees that there may be such a loophole, he asks him to send an amendment to Representative Henry Cullen Adams, as it would be better to close any loopholes now. Roosevelt additionally asks McCabe to discuss the matter directly with Beveridge.
