Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Louis A. Coolidge

Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to Louis A. Coolidge

President Roosevelt writes to Louis A. Coolidge, Director of the Literary Bureau of the Republican National Committee, about a recent editorial attacking him for accepting an honorary membership in the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen (a trade union). There have been both similar and opposite attacks in other newspapers. Therefore, Roosevelt would like Coolidge to create a pamphlet to demonstrate that he treats wage-workers and capitalists the same, evidenced by dining with both labor men (such as John Mitchell) and heads of corporations at the White House.
