An article in the New York Times discusses Senator Thomas Collier Platt’s statements regarding President Roosevelt’s potential to influence the selection of the future Republican presidential candidate. Lucius Nathan Littauer has responded that Governor Charles Evans Hughes will be a serious contender, and that Roosevelt should consider shifting his support from Secretary of War William H. Taft in response. Additionally, Littauer comments that he does not think Benjamin B. Odell will win the Republican support needed to become State Chairman.
