Letter from W. J. Curtis to William H. Taft
W. J. Curtis has heard of President-elect Taft’s upcoming trip to examine the Panama Canal, and recommends Hugh L. Cooper as an experienced hydraulic engineer who he feels would be of great service if he were to accompany Taft on this journey. Curtis vouches for both Cooper’s experience and character, and says that if Taft is interested in receiving a second opinion, he believes the Engineering Department of the Army will confirm his view of Cooper.
