Phillips Lee Goldsborough asks Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte if he believes President Roosevelt will permit him to be chairman of William H. Jackson’s congressional campaign even though he is a collector for the Internal Revenue Service. Goldsborough believes he will be granted permission based on a conversation he had with Commissioner John Watson Yerkes in which Yerkes confirmed that Roosevelt had allowed a collector to act as chairman of a state committee.
