President Roosevelt was pleased to receive Judge Jones’s letter and opinion. He asked Judge Jeter Connelly Pritchard if there had been any failure to assist him. Any statement that Edward Terry Sanford suggested the administration would not support Pritchard is false. Roosevelt supports Goode and has prepared Attorney General Charles J. Bonaparte to speak regarding any obstructions of the federal process.
