Clark Howell regrets that he will not be able to get to Washington, D.C. at this point in time to meet with President Roosevelt. Howell happened to run into ex-Governor Joseph Forney Johnston and they talked. Johnston did not discuss with Roosevelt all he wished to get through. Howell wishes Roosevelt to know that Montgomery would be a great place to mention the Jefferson Davis incident and that only a general reference would be needed.
