Letter from E. Philbrook to Theodore Roosevelt
E. Philbrook writes to President Roosevelt regarding the Mrs. Morris Incident and individuals who oppose the treatment of the finely-dressed Morris. Philbrook states that attire does not pardon unbecoming behavior and that if people are held to different standards due to their attire, “then are we going back to those feudal ages.” She commends Roosevelt for not discriminating and showing preferential treatment to Morris.
