Letter from Leslie M. Shaw to Theodore Roosevelt

Letter from Leslie M. Shaw to Theodore Roosevelt

Secretary of the Treasury Shaw reviews potential changes to the Board of General Appraisers. He suggests the announcement of New York State Senator Charles P. McClelland’s appointment, effective October 1. Shaw has constant trouble with the board, and he believes Judge Henderson Middleton Somerville is the primary difficulty. Removal of Somerville would make room to appoint a southern Democratic, perhaps Rudolph Kleberg. There is also an opening for Republican, and Shaw suggests William Henry Eustis for the vacancy.
