Jf Former Roosevelt Chef
Recalls Long-Fight for
Health After -Paralysis
By Mary Orelner Kelly.
There were hundred! of them
tome pretty hungry looking too who
had known Franklin D. Roosevelt
when. They were eager to tell each
other and the world in general about
It, aa they pushed and shoved tor
apace In the hallway outalde the New
York governor's suite at the Port
land Hotel during the visit there.
Some had sat on the platform with
him In 1913. One had shook tils
hand In 1016. Another had seconded
hla nomination for the vloe-presldency
U In 1920. An elderly veteran had given
much younger Franklin some sound
advice (which, of course, he followed)
? a year or two previous.
So the contest In reminiscent aelf
T adulation rose and rumbled for hours
3 In that narrow hallway. And the
1 atmosphere became thick and a trifle
atlcky.
Through It all stood a quiet, middle-aged
man with unusual, triangu
lar eyes, who was obviously content
to hug the wall and listen.
Finally the various conferences and
Interviews were ended. The doors
were reluctantly opened by aides, and
the crowd lined In single tile, stepped
lively through one room and out an
other where they shook the hand of
a smiling Franklin Roosevelt.
The man with the triangular eyes
was still standing quietly In the hall
when the last of the "Intimate
frienda" came out. As he appeared,
at last, In the exit doorway, the voice
of the Democratic candidate boomed
delightedly:
"Charlie, come right in here. What's
been holding you up so long?"
: Then the doors closed on Franklin
)' Roosevelt and hla good friend Chef
Charles Richard, who probably comes
nearer being one of the Roosevelt
J family than anyone else outside It.
Richard (accent on the last ayl-
lable), who speaks four languagea
J fluently, and la an expert dietician as
- well as a chef, remained with noose-
"i velt constantly during the long
J months after he was stricken with
4 paralysis. He not only prepared hla
,J prescribed diet but administered It to
; the then physically neipies man.
" i "Yes, I fed heem with a spoon at
first." Richard confided In an Inter
view later. "Heea arms and legs were
both lifeless. It waa sheer will power
that cured him." Monsieur Richard
smiled happily over the top of hla
unusual eyea and exclaimed:
"But now look at heem. Look at
those strong, powerful arms, and the
way he awlngs them around in ma
BOGUS TRAVELER
CHECKS CASHED
LOCAL
Despite warnings of the state police,
to merchants and cltliens to be wary
of acceptance of forged travellers
checks, a number of valley stores and
resident the past week nave reporveo
thev caahed the spurious paper, to
eums ranging from to to tlS. Frank'a
Cafe, thla city, the Talent eervice
station at Talent, and W. V. Bates
of Phoenix, report they were bilked.
It is thought that more of the bad
travellers checks have been passed In
southern Oregon towns than reported.
According to Information received
by the state police, the travellera
checks are a crude Imitation of the
genuine, and are passed on merchanta
and service station operatora, not ac
quainted with the regular paper. They
are made payable to "The American
Trust Bank of Illinois," a flctltioua
institution.
The alleged passer of the bogus
travellers checks Is ((-scribed by the
state police, aa a Texan, driving an
auto with a Texaa license, and ac
companied by three children. He la
known to have visited Crater Lake
National park September 13. Infor

As a result of their reunion here,
Governor Roosevelt Insisted upon
Richard rejoining hla household In
Albany, from whence. In case the
Democratic candidate Is elected, he
expects to follow him Into the White
House aa chef de cuisine.
That would be a fitting climax
to the career of the man who has
managed menus In the households
of a number of prominent social and
political families for years throughout

former secretary of navy aa "Dad."
He haa personally met a number ol
the greatest political lights of the
day and has prepared favorite dishes
tor most of them who have visited
the Daniels home. He was acquainted
with all the Roosevelt family. Includ

Wilson, Coolldge, Harding'. He cooked

Speaking of the preferencea of va
rious notables who visited the Roose
velt home, he observed that Al Smith
rarely ate desaort. Probably due to
hla early experiences at the Fulton
fish market, he has little use for
that food, but la a great meat eater.
Roosevelt, on the other hand, eata
little meat and la tremendously fond
of fish. Hla favorite dessert la straw
berry ahortcake.
Asked whether he preferred cooking
for men or women, Chef Richard
threw up his hands at the thought
of the latter.
"Women no," he declared. "As a
rule women are dictators in the cui
sine. They destroy the creative art
of the chef. The InslBt upon the mln.

tions that will distort a recipe. Eet
becomes a theeng weethout Interest

an experience aa chef In an exclu
sive Boston college for glrla.
"Mrs. Roosevelt Is different,"' he
added. She often came Into the cul
alne and asked to watch me prepare
a certain favorite dish. But she came
to learn not to teach. Chef Rich
ard dropped his shoulders and sighed:
"That, madame, la ver' nice when
women are like that!"

The Western Pine association, with
headquarters in Portland, . Ore., has
also reported an Increase In business
during the week of August 6 In the
western pine territory. The ivual
trend at this season Is downward, as
compared to the same week In 1031,
orders were almost equal, being 95
per cent of the total a year ago. Lum
ber stocks In the territory are being
decreased and are now 35 per cent
of what they were a year ago. The
same Is true In the region covered by
the West Coast Lumbermen's associa
tion.
Prices Increased
Average prices have Increased from
$1.50 to D2.00 per thousand feet dur
ing the past 60 days," the West Coast
Lumbermen's association said. "The
major Increases up to $2.00 have
occurred In the Atlantic coast, Cali
fornia water markets and In some
items In the rail trade."
The association attributed the in-
creasea to "the very low production
schedules at Individual mills and the
fact that such operatora as were mak
ing lumber during the period did so
at a cost of from 93.00 to $4.00 per
thousand board feet above the
amount that could be realized for the
lumber."

Judge C. M. Thomas of thla county,

vide for the child, but Is unable to

that he be relieved of all alimony
