President Roosevelt thanks Senator Lodge for his letters and asks him to write as often as possible, as he feels out of touch with politics. He is exhausted from all his activities in San Francisco. He will take up the Post Office matter as soon as he gets back, and asks to hear Lodge’s thoughts on the matter.
