Letter from James Russell Parsons to Theodore Roosevelt

James Russell Parsons warns that if Republicans fail to deal adequately with issues surrounding education in New York the Democrats may win the state in the next election. He argues that pursuing “unification”, to protect the schools from political interference, is necessary to placate Catholics and Jews who are irritated over the reopening of the question of Bible reading in public schools.
