Alfred Mosely is glad to hear that Theodore Roosevelt’s views on industrial education are the same as his own. He suggests that Roosevelt’s secretary get in touch with the Board of Education to arrange a time for Roosevelt to present a picture to them, and asks if Roosevelt would be willing to offer a brief address at the occasion. The United States must avoid falling into the pitfall of too much unskilled labor that England has stumbled into.
