Theodore Roosevelt was pleased with Edmund Heller’s letter and sent it to Kermit Roosevelt. He congratulates Heller on acquiring the spectacled bear specimen. Archie Roosevelt is starting out for a hunt but Roosevelt has nothing planned besides a mild trip to Canada. Roosevelt is troubled by the policies of the Wilson administration and considers President Wilson the poorest president he has seen. The United States needs to stand up for its rights.
