Theodore Roosevelt tells Anthony Fiala that if there comes a war, he shall try to raise a division. Archibald Roosevelt will also try to raise a troop in Arizona. Roosevelt agrees with Fiala about the need for preparedness. Roosevelt has done all that he can, but it has been hard to make the people realize “how things are.”
