Letter from Theodore Roosevelt to William Allen White

Theodore Roosevelt hopes to work until Quentin Roosevelt reaches adulthood in three years. He does not want to make plans for after this time frame. Roosevelt must write about international, social, and economic issues, as that is what people want to hear about and for which he can get paid. He hopes to discuss President Woodrow Wilson and Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan less, but will have to discuss their positions and policies to do his job. Roosevelt wishes he could visit Colorado but thinks it is best if he stay at Sagamore Hill.
