Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Marion Reedy
President Roosevelt was very impressed with William Marion Reedy’s article, and wishes that it could be circulated throughout the United States. Roosevelt was struck by Reedy’s description of newspapers, when he wrote that the people driving the policies of these are plutocrats who wish to oppose anything that could threaten them, but who, by doing this, foster socialism and anarchy in response. Roosevelt feels that his actions in trying to reduce the evils of plutocracy are the only thing that can answer a movement toward socialism and anarchy.
