Lyman Abbott informs President Roosevelt that in a recent copy of his Message, Roosevelt makes reference to several pages of the Congressional Record. Abbott points out that the pages in question are for April 28, not May 1, as referenced in the Message, and tactfully suggests that “possibly the printer of [Roosevelt’s] Message has made a blunder” which Roosevelt may wish to correct.
