Philadelphia mayor John Weaver assures President Roosevelt that he has not repeated any part of their conversation in any way that could lead to its publication. He has only mentioned Roosevelt’s comment on the tyranny of the newspaper political machines when he could be sure of making it clear that it was in the context of the New York political race. Weaver expresses his admiration for Roosevelt and would not want to do anything to jeopardize Roosevelt’s good opinion of him.
