Mary Elizabeth Blampey Trautmann informs President Roosevelt that she visited Clare A. Cooper and investigated her case. She believes that Cooper would be capable of filling a good position. A position may be open for Cooper on the health board, but if not, Trautmann would like to work with President Roosevelt to find Cooper a civil service position. Trautmann is proud that Roosevelt took the time to consider Cooper’s situation.
