Letter from Ben B. Lindsey to Theodore Roosevelt
Judge Lindsey is embarrassed by a rumor that appeared in a Hearst paper suggesting that he is being considered as vice president on a Roosevelt presidential ticket. He believes the rumor is being spread for a “vicious purpose.” Lindsey also encloses a clipping on a mothers’ compensation law he is campaigning for and would appreciate a public statement from Roosevelt on the law.
