Theodore Roosevelt’s secretary notifies James B. Sheridan that Theodore Roosevelt does not give his opinion on topics unless they have been specifically referenced in his published speeches. Unfortunately, if Roosevelt were to answer every question mailed to him it would take up too much of his time and leave him exhausted. Roosevelt offers his condolences that he cannot answer his question.
