Theodore Roosevelt met with Frances Kellor and Cornelia Bryce Pinchot regarding the Progressive Service. He agrees with their proposal to separate the Progressive Service from the Progressive Party. Many people are in sympathy with the Progressive Service but do not want to be associated with the party. Roosevelt hopes that Kellor can continue to run the Progressive Service, with the same name, as an independent organization.
