Charles William Anderson tells William Loeb that he recently spoke to a friend of New York Governor Charles Evans Hughes to advise him about a speech that former Governor Frank Swett Black gave about the Race Track Bills. Anderson thought Black’s speech could be used against him, and believes Hughes took his advice, judging from a recent speech. William Tecumseh Vernon, the Register of the Treasury is not being as brave as he should be, and has been too cautious in his recent speeches, according to Anderson. Anderson also wonders if Consul James Weldon Johnson could be transferred from Venezuela to a European consulate, as he believes it would be a good move.
