Ambassador Meyer encloses an extract of a speech made in the Italian Senate Chamber which may interest President Roosevelt. Roosevelt’s book is making an impression in Italy and people are talking about it. Meyer is glad to see that Roosevelt is practically assured of a renomination by acclamation. He indicates that he believes a “prophesy” by former Italian minister of foreign affairs Giulio Prinetti that Roosevelt may be the first and only president to serve eleven years in office will come to pass. Meyer sends best wishes to the first lady.
