Edgar S. Wilson sends editorials from Mississippi newspapers, none of which endorsed Roosevelt. He is hopeful that with the election over, the extreme negativity towards Roosevelt will abate. None of Roosevelt’s appointees in Mississippi have been problematic and Wilson writes that this is winning over some of the President’s opponents. Wilson asks for a meeting. He also reminds Roosevelt of their planned bear hunt.
