James P. Goodrich asks Theodore Roosevelt if Consul-General Griffiths, who currently serves in Liverpool, England, could come home and stump for the congressional races in Indiana. Griffiths is willing to help, as long as it is not contrary to Roosevelt’s desire and the rules of the State Department. Goodrich tells Roosevelt he hopes Indiana will be able to send 11 members of Congress to support the administration.
