Dear Mr. Roosevelt: Knowing of your personal interest in the Navy of our Country, and having had the advantage of reading an arti- cle by you, in the New York Evening Post, Dec. 28, 1914, which gave me much valuable information, I am taking the liberty of asking your acceptance of a book, written by myself, entitled, "A Son of Old Ironsides", which I am sending you by parcel-post, to the same ad- X 365 dress. I hope you may find time during your cruise to look into its pages, for while it is intended primarily for boys of yonger age than you; as our mutual friend, Admiral Philip Andrews said, it is "Just the book for a live boy, old or young". Admiral Andrews has told me of the lively interest and effic- ient aid you gave to the "Save Old Ironsides" campaign, which was x200-A much appreciated by him. Probably he has told you that, already. It is very gratifying to know of the great interest the people of the Pacific coast are taking in the frigate, as she visits along from port to port, Commander Gulliver has written me of the inspira- tion he gets from the attitude of the visitors, who seem to worship the splendid vessel. I was able to watch the progress of restoration, and I know what a remarkable work Lieut. (now Mayor of Bath, Me.) John A. Lord did in reincarnating all the history and tradition in the present restoration. So I hope the book I am asking you to read, will be another tie between you and the Nestor of our Navy, and help to keep herdoing her patriotic duty. May the voyage of the "Amberjack II" be very beneficial to you, in every way. Very respectfully John Stuart Barrows. shrings pl.t. q-B July 12, 1933 My dear Mr. Barrows: The President has asked me to tell you how much he appreciates your presenting him with a copy of "A Son of Old Ironsides."

I am sending it over to the White House today with your very complete in- structions on its mounting. Sincerely yours, M. H. McIntyre, Assistant Secretary to the President. Albert H. Borland, Esq., Station C, Box 81, San Diego, California. ROSEBINE MANOR acceived derice 7/10 4393 Ohio Street, San Diego, California, June 30th., 1933. Mr. Stephen T. Early, Secretary to the President, Washington, D. C. Dear sir: Reaction from sudden changes of temperature as experienced in artificially cooled buildings, are often enervating in the extreme, more especially, when one is an "out-door enthusiast" as reports of the President indicate, and only a mentally and physically healthy man can hope for a successful consumation of the various projects President Roosevelt has inaugerated. To assist him in retaining his health and vitality; I am mailing (under separate cover addressed to the Chief Steward) a de- vice for the President's use which will assure him rest, comfort and rejuvenation during his period of sleep, without the danger of catch- ing "colds" in any normal summer or winter temperatures. This type of the device is portable and compact and can, with minor attachments, be adjusted to any bed or berth in less than one minute. It was my desire to have this device manufactured from the finest materials but circumstances necessitated the use of materials available here. Do not be deceived by its simplicity however; Should it be necessary to avoid transgression of aesthetic tastes; You are authorized to have one made of materials and colors to contrast with the President's bed. Instructions, are with the device and the Chief Steward has been requested to inform you of its arrival. Should there be any question of my integrity; You can have me investigated by anyone you are in touch with here. I have few political, but excellent fraternal affiliations. Am also a Spanish- American War Veteran and an observer of men and things. I have come to the conclusion in my last analysis that the President is, above all, a dynamic statesman. Years ago; Ella Wheeler Wilcox must have had President "Achievement". Roosevelt's type in mind when she wrote that poetic verse Thanks! for your time. My compliments to the President; I hope he proves a successful "Skipper" for this old U.S.A., fore-and- aft. "Thar's breakers! ahed". 1 encl. Respectfully, Albert H.

Al Borland, Inventor. THE REJUVENATOR. INSTRUCTIONS 1st., In making bed, the sheets should lap two inches at head and tuck under at foot and sides, especially top sheet. 2nd., If solid head and foot boards, use rubber-covered clamps; If open head and foot boards; Attach main strap direct. Snap at the head and buckle at the foot. Strap should be about twenty inches above the counterpain at "center". 3rd., Hold hanger by sharpened hook underneath the strap at "center" and allow it to drop(after removing counterpain) note spot where center of hanger rests, and (standing at right of bed) place first two fingers of right hand on"spot" - Grasp hanger firmly in left hand (sharpened hook, slide it under all of the cover ing including top sheet, and pierce the covering with the sharp- ened hook using the two fingers of the right hand to work the hook through all the covering - Should you find it difficult; give the hanger a lateral motion. Cotton comforts only, are hard to penetrate. 4th., Raise the hanger and engage same in the double holes of the flexible leather strap viz: Up through the nearest hole and down through the opposite hole. To prevent accidents: place rubber protector over point of hook. 5th., If temperature is high: Flip all top covers (one corner at a time) up on the strap, leaving only the sheet in (tent-like) position. leave all covering tucked under the mattress at the foot. Should the temperature lower during the night, the oc- cupant of the bed can reach up and pull down sufficient cover- ing for comfort. Should the temperature be low at first, leave all of the covering in a tent-like position. The body will fur- nish sufficient heat, for comfort, in a short time. 6th., In the morning after a perfect night's sleep, flip all of the covering up ont the strap and allow the bed to "air" when it has aired sufficiently: remove protector and disengage the shar- pened hook and allow colthing to drop in place - Smooth the bed- clothing without removing the hanger - the clothing has not been disturbed during the night and it will not be necessary to re- move it to make the bed. If bulge of hanger-hook shows after the counterpane has been replaced - Drop a fancy pillow on it. The Strap can be removed during the day if necessary, but keep it handy, as, one having tasted its comforts and benefits, you will not easily dispense with it. 7th., If the bed-sheets are changed daily, of course it will be neces- sary to remove the hanger each morning, but I have found that with this device, and hours airing each morning, the sheets can be used a week or more without the slightest trace of B.O. in them, where light pajamas are used. With minor attachments this device can be attached to any bed or berth and continued use leaves lasting results in health and vitality. If the sleeer desires to have the bed-clothing touch his back; loosen from one side of the bed, leaving it tucked under at the foot. Al Borland, Inventor. sug R Feeg a : IL IL GOJ THE as X S >u.

It is well known that the health of a person is dependant upon the skin of the person receiving fresh air since the skin it- self to a considerable extent serves also as a respiratory organ. ig.5. It is essential for the proper health of the person that the skin be exposed to fresh air and by my invention it is possible to pro- vide ample fresh air for the skin while a person is asleep and at the same time to keep such person warm. In Figure 2 of the drawings at the left it will be noted that a strap 8 passes over the head and the foot rest of the bed. Depending from the strap 8 at the center thereof is supporting mem- ber 4 which can be passed through a button hole 2 shown in Figure 6 provided in the bed clothes. The supporting member 4 can be posi- tioned at different places along the strap 8 as shown by the aper- tures 6 in Figure 3. In Figure 1 an additional supporting means is provided which is however not usually necessary and this consists of the hook 11, rope 12 and pulley 13. However the essentials of my invention are shown in Figure 2 and the hook 11, rope 12 and pulley 13 shown in Figure 1 are not necessary to a proper functioning of the invention. This device can be easily carried in a suit case or hand bag and can be attached to any bed in less than one minute of time. The occupant of the bed will be fully covered but at the same time the occupant is exposed to a large amount of fresh air which incontinally under the covers. This is exceedingly important since a person when sleeping under bed clothes supported as shown will arise in the morning refreshed and rejuvenated and will not arise in a tired condition from supporting the heavy weight of bed clothes and because of having the skin of the body closed in so that it cannot breath.

I think you are the bravest man in the United States today; not that I consider you & bully or anything of that kind, but a man that can stand up in the face of opposition, It takes the bravest, the best, because you bake in consideration the masses in preference to the classes. I had hoped you would take a hand in, "Old Folks Pensions," but I acquiesce in your judgement. I am eighty-two years of age. I hope the cane I am sending by Parcel post will be of some service to you. I have been informed you were a cripple, so I wanted to send you one of the canes I had made.

Since the beginning of the Administra- tion, and in order to conserve the time and energy of the President for his important official duties, it has been the custom for Mr. McIntyre or myself to accept all gifts, petitions, etc., acting on the President's behalf in this respect. I would suggest, if this is satisfactory to you, that presentation of the box of oysters be made following the President's re- turn to Washington on Labor Day. Either Mr. MoIntyre or myself will be very glad to suit your convenience with respect to time. Sincerely yours, Stephen Early, Assistant Secretary to the President. Howard W.

STATE OF NEW YORK CONSERVATION Department Albany LITHGOW OSBORNE COMMISSIONER August 23, 1933. Mr. Stephen Early, Assistant Secretary to the President, Poughkeepsie, N. Y. Dear Mr. Early: I enclose herewith copy of a letter received at this Department from Howard W. Beach, President of the Oyster Growers and Dealers Association of North America, Inc. The connection of this request with this Department is simply that we have supervision over the New York State shellfish industry. I will be glad if the President can accede to Mr. Beach's request that he receive the first box of oysters from the 1933 harvest from his own State. It also occurs to me that there would be an opportunity for interesting publicity if the presentation were made on August 31, when the Astor yacht was about to set sail or, perhaps even better, at some point en route the next day. Incidentally, the President and Mr. Astor might not mind having a box of fresh oysters in the cargo on the trip. I am leaving the Department tomorrow but have asked Mr. William C. Adams, Chief of the Division of Fish and Game, to get in touch with you in regard to this matter on the telephone tomorrow morning. Yours sincerely, Lookgow@serme PEASE LABORATORIES, INC. 39-41 West 38th St., New York August 22, 1933. The Hon. William C. Adams, Division Game and Fish Conservation Department Albany, New York Dear Mr. Adams: Last year on September 1, as you know, we presented to President Hoover a box of oysters, the first from the 1932 harvest. This was in line with the age-old custom which is carried out at Colchester, England, where the season is always opened by the Lord Mayor and followed by a banquet at which many notables are present. We would like to continue the custom which was started last year until it becomes a White House tradidion for the President to formally open the oyster season by ac- cepting a box of the first catch. Beginning September 1, twenty-five to thirty-five thousand people go back to work har- vesting and packing oysters. The Association have planned to make a presentation to President Roosevelt on September 1, but we now learn that he is to leave Hyde Park on August 31 to go on a yachting trip with Vincent Astor until September 4. I have been a long way getting to my subject. At a conference attended by Dr. Pease and myself, with Mr. Raye this morning, during which we planned a cruise on Long Island Sound, starting from Connecticut, for a group of press people, to go over the grounds on the 31st SO that a flood of excellent publicity will be due to appear the next day, I brought up the difficulty of our reaching President Roosevelt at this time. Mr. Raye suggested that we turn to you to see if it can be arranged for Henry Morganthau to present to the President on August 31, before he leaves for his yachting trip, a box of oysters, the first gathered from the 1933 harvest. This should be done in the name of the Oyster Growers & Dealers Association of North America, (whose code as you know has been submitted to Washington), and would be a great pu- blicity stunt for the President and especially for the industry, in announcing to the public at large the opening of the season. If it would be more con- venient for President Roosevelt, of course the pre- sentation might be arranged to occur on Sentember 1, either just before he went aboard the yacht or ac- tually on board. The act on the part of the President would be greatly appreciated, and I would like your speedy suggestion as to how to go about it. As the time is short, I would appreciate a swift reply to me at 610 Quinnipiac Avenue, New Haven, Connecticut. I am writing this from Dr. Pease's office to save time. With kindest regards and hopes that you will have a concrete suggestion and can aid us in this matter, I am Yours sincerdy, HOWARD W.

This type of\nthe device is portable and compact and can, with minor attachments, be\nadjusted to any bed or berth in less than one minute.\nIt was my desire to have this device manufactured from the\nfinest materials but circumstances necessitated the use of materials\navailable here. Do not be deceived by its simplicity however; Should\nit be necessary to avoid transgression of aesthetic tastes; You are\nauthorized to have one made of materials and colors to contrast with\nthe President's bed. Instructions, are with the device and the Chief\nSteward has been requested to inform you of its arrival.\nShould there be any question of my integrity; You can have\nme investigated by anyone you are in touch with here. I have few\npolitical, but excellent fraternal affiliations. Am also a Spanish-\nAmerican War Veteran and an observer of men and things. I have come\nto the conclusion in my last analysis that the President is, above all,\na dynamic statesman. Years ago; Ella Wheeler Wilcox must have had\nPresident \"Achievement\".

Strap should be about twenty inches\nabove the counterpain at \"center\".\n3rd.,\nHold hanger by sharpened hook underneath the strap at \"center\"\nand allow it to drop(after removing counterpain) note spot where\ncenter of hanger rests, and (standing at right of bed) place\nfirst two fingers of right hand on\"spot\" - Grasp hanger firmly\nin left hand (sharpened hook, slide it under all of the cover\ning including top sheet, and pierce the covering with the sharp-\nened hook using the two fingers of the right hand to work the\nhook through all the covering - Should you find it difficult;\ngive the hanger a lateral motion. Cotton comforts only, are hard\nto penetrate.\n4th.,\nRaise the hanger and engage same in the double holes of the\nflexible leather strap viz: Up through the nearest hole and down\nthrough the opposite hole. To prevent accidents: place rubber\nprotector over point of hook.\n5th., If temperature is high: Flip all top covers (one corner at a\ntime) up on the strap, leaving only the sheet in (tent-like)\nposition. leave all covering tucked under the mattress at the\nfoot. Should the temperature lower during the night, the oc-\ncupant of the bed can reach up and pull down sufficient cover-\ning for comfort. Should the temperature be low at first, leave\nall of the covering in a tent-like position. The body will fur-\nnish sufficient heat, for comfort, in a short time.\n6th., In the morning after a perfect night's sleep, flip all of the\ncovering up ont the strap and allow the bed to \"air\" when it\nhas aired sufficiently: remove protector and disengage the shar-\npened hook and allow colthing to drop in place - Smooth the bed-\nclothing without removing the hanger - the clothing has not been\ndisturbed during the night and it will not be necessary to re-\nmove it to make the bed. If bulge of hanger-hook shows after the\ncounterpane has been replaced - Drop a fancy pillow on it. The\nStrap can be removed during the day if necessary, but keep it\nhandy, as, one having tasted its comforts and benefits, you will\nnot easily dispense with it.\n7th., If the bed-sheets are changed daily, of course it will be neces-\nsary to remove the hanger each morning, but I have found that\nwith this device, and hours airing each morning, the sheets can\nbe used a week or more without the slightest trace of B.O. in\nthem, where light pajamas are used.\nWith minor attachments this device can be attached to any bed or\nberth and continued use leaves lasting results in health and vitality.\nIf the sleeer desires to have the bed-clothing touch his back;\nloosen from one side of the bed, leaving it tucked under at the foot.\nAl Borland,\nInventor.\nsug\nR\nFeeg a :\nIL IL GOJ\nTHE\nas\nX\nS >u.

The supporting member 4 can be posi-\ntioned at different places along the strap 8 as shown by the aper-\ntures 6 in Figure 3.\nIn Figure 1 an additional supporting means is provided\nwhich is however not usually necessary and this consists of the\nhook 11, rope 12 and pulley 13.\nHowever the essentials of my invention are shown in\nFigure 2 and the hook 11, rope 12 and pulley 13 shown in Figure 1\nare not necessary to a proper functioning of the invention.\nThis device can be easily carried in a suit case or hand\nbag and can be attached to any bed in less than one minute of time.\nThe occupant of the bed will be fully covered but at the same time\nthe occupant is exposed to a large amount of fresh air which\nincontinally\nunder the covers. This is exceedingly important since a\nperson when sleeping under bed clothes supported as shown will arise\nin the morning refreshed and rejuvenated and will not arise in a\ntired condition from supporting the heavy weight of bed clothes and\nbecause of having the skin of the body closed in so that it cannot\nbreath.\nThe device shown in fully covered bv Letters Patent.\nALBERT H.

I\nwill be glad if the President can accede to Mr. Beach's\nrequest that he receive the first box of oysters\nfrom the 1933 harvest from his own State.\nIt also occurs to me that there would\nbe an opportunity for interesting publicity if the\npresentation were made on August 31, when the Astor\nyacht was about to set sail or, perhaps even better,\nat some point en route the next day.\nIncidentally, the President and\nMr. Astor might not mind having a box of fresh\noysters in the cargo on the trip.\nI am leaving the Department tomorrow\nbut have asked Mr. William C. Adams, Chief of the\nDivision of Fish and Game, to get in touch with\nyou in regard to this matter on the telephone\ntomorrow morning.\nYours sincerely,\nLookgow@serme\nPEASE LABORATORIES, INC.\n39-41 West 38th St.,\nNew York\nAugust 22, 1933.\nThe Hon. William C. Adams,\nDivision Game and Fish\nConservation Department\nAlbany, New York\nDear Mr. Adams:\nLast year on September 1, as you know,\nwe presented to President Hoover a box of oysters,\nthe first from the 1932 harvest. This was in line\nwith the age-old custom which is carried out at\nColchester, England, where the season is always\nopened by the Lord Mayor and followed by a banquet\nat which many notables are present. We would like\nto continue the custom which was started last year\nuntil it becomes a White House tradidion for the\nPresident to formally open the oyster season by ac-\ncepting a box of the first catch.\nBeginning September 1, twenty-five to\nthirty-five thousand people go back to work har-\nvesting and packing oysters. The Association have\nplanned to make a presentation to President Roosevelt\non September 1, but we now learn that he is to leave\nHyde Park on August 31 to go on a yachting trip\nwith Vincent Astor until September 4. I have been\na long way getting to my subject. At a conference\nattended by Dr. Pease and myself, with Mr. Raye this\nmorning, during which we planned a cruise on Long\nIsland Sound, starting from Connecticut, for a group\nof press people, to go over the grounds on the 31st\nSO that a flood of excellent publicity will be due to\nappear the next day, I brought up the difficulty\nof our reaching President Roosevelt at this time.\nMr. Raye suggested that we turn to you to see if it\ncan be arranged for Henry Morganthau to present\nto the President on August 31, before he leaves for\nhis yachting trip, a box of oysters, the first\ngathered from the 1933 harvest. This should be done\nin the name of the Oyster Growers & Dealers Association\nof North America, (whose code as you know has been\nsubmitted to Washington), and would be a great pu-\nblicity stunt for the President and especially for\nthe industry, in announcing to the public at large\nthe opening of the season. If it would be more con-\nvenient for President Roosevelt, of course the pre-\nsentation might be arranged to occur on Sentember 1,\neither just before he went aboard the yacht or ac-\ntually on board. The act on the part of the President\nwould be greatly appreciated, and I would like your\nspeedy suggestion as to how to go about it. As the time\nis short, I would appreciate a swift reply to me at\n610 Quinnipiac Avenue, New Haven, Connecticut. I am\nwriting this from Dr. Pease's office to save time.\nWith kindest regards and hopes that you\nwill have a concrete suggestion and can aid us in\nthis matter, I am\nYours sincerdy,\nHOWARD W.
