Roosevelt asks that, if it is true that Armstrong will need to leave the Isthmian Canal Commission, he be kept until Roosevelt returns to Washington to see what can be done for him. Roosevelt does not have a personal interest in the case apart from the unwarranted hardship that Armstrong seems to suffer by his dismissal, as he was drafted from the Treasury Department where there is not currently an opening for him to return to.
