Frank Harper tells Bernard E. Sunny that it is impossible for Theodore Roosevelt to speak to both the school children and the Daughters of the American Revolution separately, so if the planned event cannot combine both groups, then one must be abandoned. Privately, Harper shares that Roosevelt would prefer to speak to the school children, although he hopes some way can be found to combine the two.
