President Roosevelt thanks Arthur von Briesen for sending him a “very interesting little pamphlet,” which he will read carefully. In a postscript, Roosevelt includes an extract of a letter he received from Ambassador to Austria Charles S. Francis confirming how he will answer any inquiries regarding Briesen’s qualification to be the official counselor of the Hungarian Exposition of Agriculture in the United States, saying that “he is a personal friend of the President’s and that he stands high, both professionally and personally.”
