President Roosevelt tells Senator Foraker that General Ward will be put into the list of next year’s visitors. Roosevelt encourages Foraker to not tell anyone he has granted this request, as he does not want “forty others” asking similar favors of him. He closes by making a joke about the recent scandal involving Maria Longworth Storer.
