Discusses an article Cleveland writes for the Youth Companion about what should the government do with ex-Presidents. Writes, "This subject, i think was suggested by me. I have thought of it a great deal and have gone so far as to make a start in its preparation." Asks, however, to change the topic to something about the "importance of rehabilitating and stimulating the determination of good citizenship in its broad sense, as a steadying saving agency against the wildness...that threatens the well being of our (?) nation."
