Ira Copley has convinced Theodore Roosevelt that shifting party headquarters is not a good idea. Roosevelt tells William Allen White that he now agrees that the best course of action is to “sit tight,” and that they do not want people to think that there is a row within the party. Roosevelt wishes to see White soon.
