Henry F. Charles suggests that the key issue in upcoming presidential elections will be reciprocity. Since Vice President Roosevelt is already popular with the people, becoming a leading figure on reciprocity will gain Roosevelt the support of “commercial, manufacturing, and financial elements.” Charles is working with Maurice L. Muhleman on a new publication called The World’s Trade. He would like to discuss the publication with Senator Depew and requests a letter of introduction.
