President Roosevelt has never read nor heard of Briar Patch Philosophy. If Clark wishes to write a letter, Roosevelt wants it to be clear he is not responsible for what Dr. Merriam has said, and the only part of the offending article he corrected were the quotes from his interview. He will republish his article on Nature Fakers in his next volume, directly attacking Reverend Long.
