Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Carl T. Bauch
Theodore Roosevelt informs Carl T. Bauch that he is incorrect for thinking that he needs Roosevelt’s political interest to be able to get the Secretary of the Navy to act. When Roosevelt was President the one thing that he disliked was any attempt of a boy to use political influence on their behalf. Roosevelt does not write to the Secretary of the Navy unless he knows the case personally, but instead is enclosing a letter of introduction for Bauch to use to get an audience and state his full case to the Secretary.
