Hamilton Wright informs Theodore Roosevelt that one of his policies is coming to a successful conclusion, and that the International Opium Commission has been successful in calling for an International Opium Conference to be held at The Hague. He comments that Roosevelt “placed a very tough problem in my hands,” but now hopes that the question will soon be settled by international law. Wright sends a copy of the report of the commission under separate cover.
