Theodore W. Mellis tried to arrange a meeting with Theodore Roosevelt, but now unfortunately has to travel out of town and fears he will not be able to see him in person. Mellis introduces himself as the founder of the Young Men’s Hebrew Association and the Young Hebrew Educational and Social Society. He regrets the fact that the “Catholic elements” have been running San Francisco for the last several years, and hopes to be able to overcome this. Mellis hopes to be able to arrange a meeting with Roosevelt before he leaves to tell him of his plans.
