President Roosevelt does not understand why Chancellor Day and Lieutenant George S. Richards’s father did not insist that Richards resign, when both did not trust him with money because of his mental condition. Roosevelt thinks that Richards should not have been allowed to resume duty, and refuses now to restore him to the service.
