NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, MARCH When Roosevelt Threw Dough At His Father OQOSEVELT'S father whipped him only once. The small boy had bitten his sister on the arm, and then sought refuge under a table in the kitchen. Before he hid he armed himself with some dough which he got from the cook. When father came after him on all fours, the boy de- fended himself with the dough, “having the advantage of him because I could stand up under the table,”” as Roosevelt afterwards wrote. Big, powerful, God-regarding, and fearless was the father whom Roosevelt adored as his hero and model of imitation. Free from the oppression of physical weakness, proud in successful self-expression, independent and able to hold his own in the world, was the ideal boxer whom Roosevelt associated with his father as hero and guide through life. How did these two inspirations combine to form his decision to enter politics? He had money, education,family position, everything he desired, and his friends told him that “pelitics were low,” and that “‘the organiza- tions were not controlled by gentlemen.”” Yet he fought his way up to the White House. And Harvey O’Higgins tells us in the March Cosmopolitan what “Doctor X" told him about Rooseveit. .
