Letter from Cleveland H. Dodge to Theodore Roosevelt

Cleveland H. Dodge agrees with Theodore Roosevelt’s position on the Young Men’s Christian Association but cautions it will take time for the organization’s majority to recognize the need for a change. Although, the YMCA recently appointed a committee for this purpose, from which Dodge hopes some action will be taken. He wishes Roosevelt a “delightful and profitable trip” and wants to talk when they both return from the West.
