President Roosevelt tells Senator Cullom that he hopes the treaty created at the Algeciras Convention will be ratified during this current session of Congress. He cannot understand how anyone is able to find anything objectionable in it, and comments that if it is rejected “it would mean that for the first time since the adoption of the Constitution this Government will be without a treaty with Morocco.”
