Letter from Lawrence F. Abbott to Theodore Roosevelt
Lawrence F. Abbott encloses a proof of President Roosevelt’s editorial article on Leo Tolstoy. The Outlook will print Roosevelt’s lectures at Sorbonne University, the University of Oxford, and Humboldt University of Berlin unless they hear from him otherwise. While Abbott originally had no qualms about printing Philippe Bunau-Varilla’s article on the Panama Canal, he would rather suppress it now than to print something that would be personally offensive to Roosevelt.
