President Roosevelt would like to press criminal libel charges against Joseph Pulitzer, and asks Henry L. Stimson if such a thing is possible. Roosevelt believes such a thing may be possible in connection with Pulitzer’s assertions regarding the Panama Canal, and asks Stimson to look into what Pulitzer has said on the topic in the preceding three or four months.
