Gifford Pinchot and Sir Horace Curzon Plunkett wonder whether the death of King Edward VII will make it feasible for Theodore Roosevelt to visit Ireland. Amos Pinchot has written that the controversy surrounding Secretary Richard Achilles Ballinger is looking favorable for them and that Gifford Pinchot should not return yet. Pinchot hopes to have the conservation meeting in either Kansas City or St. Louis, Missouri and urges Roosevelt to make his first speech there.
