Theodore Roosevelt’s secretary encloses a letter from Hogansville, Georgia, and asks if there is anything its authors can do. He points out a letter that has been circulating from Representative Sulloway claiming that Roosevelt has opposed all pension legislation. The secretary suggests that this falsehood be answered, perhaps with an endorsement of Roosevelt from leading members of veteran organizations.
