September 1, 1938
Dear President Roosevelt,
I wrote to you earlier in the summer, but I was informed by your
secretary that you were on q vacation cruise, so I will try to reach you
again. I am one of your handicaped friends at the Mary Helen Lindsay
School for Crippled Children in Saint Paul, Minnesota. I like my school-
mates can not run and play, as other children can do for my legs aren't
as strong as they should be, but I am not infantile paralysis victim but
had a illness which affected my nerve system what makes me shaky in my
actions. My physical weakness is not going to set me back in this busy
world for I have been gifted with artistic talent which I am going to
further develope with special study so that I can probably became an
artist what my country can be proud.
Healthy girls (16) my age have sports and other junvinal activities
,instead I enjoy reading educational books, and the book I enjoy reading
with
most of all is the Bible for it revives me new hope and courage. I live
close to God for He comforts me and puts love into my heart for every-
one as well as supplies me with added patients and hope. I truly think
if everyone both young and old would give some of their time to God and
read His worde instead of looking for ways to benefit onlynhimself and
while doing this not considering human lives this world would the more
peaceful and our nation much easier for you to manage.
I would appreciate a personal letter written by your own hand bu
of course if you haven't time I wouldn't to trouble you for I know you
a emmence responibility.

The water-melon which you had shipped
to the President arrived in great shape just
before we left Washington.
He was delighted with it and wanted me
to tell you how much he appreciated your

We are all of us mighty sorry about
your illness, and everyone joins me in best
wishes for a quick recovery.

I know the President is very much interested
in the oil business, and I am therefore sending herewith
the greatest book of its kind that has ever been published.
It is William KemnitzerGan eminent economist of Washington,
entitled II The Rebirth of Monopoly". I have marked chap-
ters and paragraphs of special importance to aid the Pres-
ident in glancing through this book. I am sure he will
find it fascinating and enlightening.
I really think it is quite important that he
read this book and will appreciate your giving it to him.
I say it is important because Kemnitzer is recognized
throughout the government as an expert, and he supports
every statement he makes with references to his sources
of information.

STRAUSS, Allsn - Chairs Incorporated,
New York, N.Y.,
Nov. 30,1938
Writes to Mrs. Roosevelt offering, as a keen token of their esteem,
to furnish with their compliments, his sitting room of his new cottage at Hyde
Park. - In a memo of Dec. 8 to Miss Malvina Thompson, Miss Leiland says that
the President thinks 1t would be grand if Chairs, Inc. would like to give him
either a very nice sofa or a comfortable chair or both for his new cottage,
but he thinks that is enough. (Dark wood). -- On Dec. 14, Mrs. Roosevelt's
secretary wrote to Mr. Strauss conveying this message from the President.
(Original correspondence in Mrs. Roosevelt's file).

President Franklin D. Roosevelt,
The White House,
Washington, D.C.
My dear Mr. President:
Texas, the only State in the Union which has the
privilege of withdrawing if it does not like its neighbors,
has no idea of doing so, because everything is All-American
down here. Even Congressman Dies will have to grant us a clear
certificate on that.
We like our neighboring States; in fact, we like
everyone, and why shouldn't we, because we have everything which
goes for happiness, prosperity and optimism. It's pretty hard
to see the dragons for the fat Hereford calves, flowing oil
wells, waving grain fields, snowy cotton fields, loaded orchards
with pink grapefruit and soft shell pecans and full smoke
houses - not overlooking America's outstanding No. Football
Eleven, T. C. U. We just sorta feel that the U. S. A. is going
to stick around for quite a while, and we intend to stick with
it.
We wish that you could be with us, ride one of
the STAR TELEGRAM'S SPECIAL TRAINS to New Orleans Sugar Bowl
New Years and watch our All-American T. C. U. Davey O'Brien,
Ki Aldrich and their efficient helpers, under the tutelage of
Coach Dutch Meyer, sweeten an already overflowing bowl of
American Spirit. We might be discouraged, because out of the
Nation's eleven All-American football players this year, only
two came from T. C. U. But, as I said above, we like out
neighbors and don't want to be selfish. If you can't be with
us at The Bowl even where there is probably the most sugar, we
hope you will at least tune in to us on the NBC during that
game time - 1:15 P.M. E. S. T.
The Shady Oaks Smoked Turkey, two of which are
being expressed to you with our compliments, is like the Eagle -
another All-American bird. They may be a trifle rich - blame
that on the contented grasshoppers - but I think you will find
them handy for nibbles during the Holidays. The Hired Hand
has been SO busy bringing these turkeys along and then finally
smoking them that he hasn't had time to join any of the 'Isms.
You may eat with safety.
-2-
Yes, Fort Worth, West Texas and all Texas is 100%
plus. Business is good, getting better. Everybody is happy,
no one is alarmed. Shady Oak Farm is still running without
Federal relief, but busily.
So, from an All-American spot to an All-American
friend, I wish you the Joys of the Season.
Sincerely,
A.Darees

Just to prove how good things are down here, I'm

can you find a better one? Team work always wins!
