Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Ralph M. Easley

Subject(s): Bartholdt, Richard, 1855-1932, Feature writing, Socialism

President Roosevelt spoke to Representative Richard Bartholdt the same as Ralph M. Easley did. Roosevelt finds it “extraordinary that any people of respectability should be willing to lend their name to such a movement.” He hopes Easley will enjoy his two articles on socialism that will come out soon in The Outlook.
