Newberry is glad Roosevelt approves of his plans for educating midshipmen, and believes it is a good idea to enlist them at a younger age. Newberry has conferred with Admirals Robley D. Evans and Willard H. Brownson regarding itineraries for the Great White Fleet’s trip to the Pacific, and will send the specifics of three proposed itineraries soon.
