Lawrence F. Abbott asks President Roosevelt to sign off on an article if he feels that it is ready for publication. The Outlook would prefer to have article published as a contribution with Roosevelt’s name under the title of the article, rather than as an editorial with his signature at the end of the article, as that form will be saved until after March 4, 1909, when Roosevelt is officially working for the magazine.
