President Roosevelt forwards to Acting Postmaster General Wynne a clipping stating that political assessments have been made against all postmasters in the Third District of Tennessee. Roosevelt instructs Wynne to send the circular of the Civil Service Commission to the postmasters, informing them that they may contribute as much or as little as they wish, without fear of repercussions. Roosevelt also tells Wynne to send copies of his letter to Robert S. Sharp, the congressional candidate for the Third District, and to the chairman of the Republican State Committee, J. C. R. McCall.
