S. S. McClure tells President Roosevelt that he wants the articles that he will write while on safari in Africa more than he has ever wanted anything for his magazine. McClure also has ideas for other series of articles that he thinks Roosevelt should write, including a history of the development of the United States since the death of Abraham Lincoln, and a study of social and governmental matters in other countries.
