New York State Republican Committee Chairman Woodruff updates William Loeb on the campaigns of Fifth Assembly District Leader Robert A. Sharkey and of Senator Eugene Mabbett Travis for control of the Eleventh Assembly District in New York. Woodruff feels he can neither support not speak out against Governor Charles Evans Hughes at this time, and he is worried Stevens’s victory in Niagara will encourage those hostile to President Roosevelt. He assesses other district candidates and their potential to have a positive impact. Although he knows Loeb may not be able to help directly, he appeals to him for aid if possible.
