Letter from Alfred Mosely to Theodore Roosevelt

Alfred Mosely would like Theodore Roosevelt to present a John Charles Dollman painting to the New York Board of Education on his behalf. The picture depicts the social inequality of Great Britain. Mosely believes this inequality is due to a lack of industrial education. Although the United States provides better education than Britain, he believes the Board can learn from the lessons depicted in the painting.
