President Roosevelt will see his son, Kermit Roosevelt, around the Fourth of July, but does not believe he will be able to get away before then because of the schedule of Congress. Roosevelt has not been able to exercise much because of an injured ankle, but has put in plenty of work on various pieces of legislation. He remarks that the presidency is certainly a place to learn to keep his temper, as he is frequently attacked from every side of the political spectrum.
