Emil Gribeschock, in spite of not being appointed consul general to Addis Ababa during Theodore Roosevelt’s presidency, continues to work for the good of the United States. In his recent travels through the United States, Gribeschock has discovered that the tariff is negatively impacting wool producers, and predicts that the tariff will be the cause of a Republican loss in the 1911 elections. He urges, however, that there is time to revise the tariff for the 1912 election, and sends a copy of his report to Roosevelt for transmission to the Tariff Board. He hopes that he will be able to receive recognition for his work this time, as his previous efforts went unrecognized.
