President Roosevelt tells Howard Allen Bridgman that he is not planning to write anything next year outside of his African trip. Roosevelt would like to do anything Bridgman asks but does not think he could write that article. He muses that the fact he goes to church is a stronger appeal than anything he could write asking people to go to church.
