Charles Fletcher Lummis has just returned from spending two weeks in New Mexico with E. P. Ripley and Paul Morton. His frequent absences from home have caused him to be “snowed under with duties.” Furthermore, he must work on his magazine, Out West. Lummis asks whether President Roosevelt’s summons are immediately important or if his visit to Washington, D.C., can wait until December or January. If necessary, he will come immediately as he wants to speak with Roosevelt about many matters.
