Theodore Roosevelt says that Henry L. Stimson’s recent letter was very nice. Roosevelt sympathizes with the part of the New York state constitution discussed at the 1915 constitutional convention for which Stimson was responsible and agrees with him on the principles for which he stood. There are also several other issues that Roosevelt has with the proposed constitution. Roosevelt enjoyed seeing Stimson and Robert Bacon and relates that Stimson’s father, Dr. Lewis Atterbury Stimson, came to visit Roosevelt the next day.
