Letter from R. R. Bowker to Theodore Roosevelt

R. R. Bowker reports to President Roosevelt regarding complaints he has heard about worker conditions in Panama. Most of the complaints relate to the types and quality of food available to workers there. One possible solution would be to purchase more fresh supplies locally. It might also be worthwhile to send someone who is familiar with providing food to large numbers of people to inspect the operations.
