L. B. Greene wonders if the government could purchase a portion of the Cattaraugus Reservation to develop into an Army base. He describes the area and encloses a map of a nearby trolley road and a sketch to see if Theodore Roosevelt finds the idea feasible. If so, he asks Roosevelt to forward it to the proper authorities.
