Douglas Robinson, Corinne Roosevelt Robinson, and Theodore Douglas Robinson will be on the government tug to view the launching of Emperor William II’s yacht. Theodore Robinson will also be writing in hopes of attending the coronation of King Edward VII. Robinson is unsure of the political aspects of Alice Roosevelt officially attending the coronation and believes this will be unpopular in the South and West. He suggests George R. Read for government real estate purchases in New York City and has invested some of President Roosevelt’s money in securities.
