Click on image to zoom in
Robert P. Porter agrees with much of President Roosevelt’s letter on the Westinghouse situation in Pittsburgh. He especially thinks that they cannot let personal feeling “enter into the question.” However, he thinks that either Roosevelt or a member of his administration expressing the hope that the problem clears up soon would be beneficial.
