Caspar Whitney informs Theodore Roosevelt about a symposium of opinions he is planning on the relative value of recreational fishing versus recreational shooting, an inquires if Roosevelt would like to contribute an opinion. Whitney lists individuals he has already solicited opinions from, and requests to hear back from Roosevelt by the end of next week, as any symposium on the subject matter would be incomplete without a word from him.
