Office buildings

Theodore Roosevelt is annoyed that Philander C. Knox was given the trouble of coming to the office because of Richard R. Quay’s telegram. Roosevelt cannot imagine how Quay could have misunderstood him, as Roosevelt told Quay that he planned to motor out to Oyster Bay. Roosevelt invites Knox and his wife to lunch with himself and Mrs. Roosevelt when they are in New York.

Buildings connected to Theodore Roosevelt make up much of this edition of the “News and Notes” section. The Theodore Roosevelt Association (TRA) acquired Roosevelt’s presidential retreat in Virginia, Pine Knot, and the federal government renamed the building housing the Office of Personnel Management the Theodore Roosevelt Federal Building. “News and Notes” also highlights the premiere of a PBS documentary on the 1992 Rio Roosevelt Expedition; discusses the foreign policy focus of this issue TRA Journal; and notes the inauguration of President Bill Clinton.

Two photographs of Pine Knot and three photographs of the ceremonies at the Theodore Roosevelt Federal Building appear in the section.
