James A. Roosevelt is in London and is concerned about exams he will soon be taking at Bonn. He asks if President Roosevelt could arrange a spot for him on a U.S. ship that will be present at the naval review for the coronation (most likely for King Edward VII of the United Kingdom). After the exams, Roosevelt intends to make a trip around the world with stops in India, China, Hawaii, and other sites.
