President Roosevelt has heard that President-elect Taft will be able to be in Washington, D.C. for longer than he had originally anticipated. While earlier scheduling conflicts did not allow Taft and Roosevelt to spend time together, Roosevelt now asks if Taft and his wife, Helen Herron Taft, would be able to join him for lunch on Saturday or dinner on Friday.
