George B. Cortelyou, Chairman of the Republican National Committee, rebukes professor Emilio L. Scharf for a recent circular letter and documents he has been sending out, as Scharf used the names of Cortelyou and President Roosevelt after being instructed not to. There is no time to change the documents that Scharf has sent out, but Cortelyou writes “so that there may be no possible misunderstanding of our attitude.”
