George L. Duval forwards to Chilean journalist Guillermo Pérez de Arce a newspaper clipping criticizing President Roosevelt. Duval points out the benefit in Roosevelt’s trust-busting stance, although some members of the House of Representatives are not supportive of Roosevelt. Duval also discusses Roosevelt’s support of the Monroe Doctrine and its connection to discussions about Panama. The presence of the United States in Panama has put down the insurgency and made the Panamanians feel safer. Duval also supports Roosevelt’s appropriation of funds from the Indian Bureau to Catholic missionaries.
