Written as Secretary of Commerce and Labor to powerful member of the House of Representatives H. L. Maynard, concerning plans for proposed exhibits at the upcoming Jamestown Exposition, in small part: ".Of my sympathy with the general purposes of the proposed Jamestown Exposition and of my desire to contribute to its success you have already been assured. An assemblage of vessels of the merchant marine of the United States and of other nations would undoubtedly prove an interesting and instructive feature of the Exposition. This department, if directed by Congress to do so, could contribute to the marine features.interesting exhibits by the Light-House Board, by the Coast and Geodetic Survey and by the Bureau of Fisheries."

No Binding. Zustand: Good. Former cabinet secretary George B. Cortelyou (1862-1940) scratched his signature at the bottom of this brief, thoughtful letter on the definition of business in 1930.

George B. Cortelyou served in President Theodore Roosevelt's cabinet as Secretary of Commerce and Labor, Postmaster General, and Secretary of the Treasury.
