Arthur S. Treat asks Theodore Roosevelt if the new package of sardines packed by Seacoast Canning Co. and distributed by U. H. Dudley & Co. might use the Roosevelt name and his picture. Or it could be the President brand, with Roosevelt’s picture. Treat believes it will only help Roosevelt and Treat is a traveling salesman who will get the product to the masses.
