New York Republican State Committee Chairman Woodruff counters William Loeb’s suggestion that John A. Merritt visit President Roosevelt in mid-October, stating that it will be too late for Merritt and James Wolcott Wadsworth to influence political matters this fall in order to strengthen their position in the spring when the National Convention delegates are elected. Their success would ensure the elected delegates support Roosevelt. Woodruff believes Roosevelt and Loeb should meet Merritt and especially Wadsworth, as he is an independent man of means who can aid the cause.
