roosevelt. this great nation will endure as it has endured. first of all let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. in his inaugural address roosevelt pledged to establish strong banking safeguards. there must be a strict supervision of all banking and credit and investments. there must be an end to speculation with other people's money. one of roosevelt's presidential acts was to declare a national bank holiday. merritt sherman, who was with the federal reserve then tells us why roosevelt took this action. what roosevelt was trying to do was to create a period in which the whole banking system individual banks could be reviewed by bank examiners, by experts who had a great deal of information about banks and enable them, through the procedure of licensing banks to reopen, to carry out the promise made by the president that any bank that was reopened would be able to stay open. in his fireside chat fdr told the nation that the reopened banks were safe. let me make it clear that the banks will take care of all needs. and it is my belief that hoarding, during the past week has become an exceedingly unfashionable pastime. roosevelt did more. legislation following the bank holiday extended the federal reserve's powers forced banks to meet tougher regulatory standards p and created the federal deposit insurance corporation to guarantee custo

roosevelt? some historians say he never lost it. some believe that he kicked wallace out to get truman in. i don't believe that. roosevelt knew he was in bad health. there was some concern if wallace was a safe candidate to be president. i don't think roosevelt thought he was. when wallace came in to see roosevelt in 1944, he said "what can i do to help the ticket? what can i do to help the whole team together?" roosevelt suggested that he take a trip to siberia. that is roosevelt. and he did what the boss said. by the time that he got back, the knife was already in, and truman was a candidate. had he become a candidate in 1948, i don't want to go on for too long, but the short and simplified answer is that he originally wanted to challenge truman in the primaries. he never thought he could be him, but he thought he might be able to move his cold policies that wallace found acceptable. the other answer, though, is that the communist party really pushed him quite hard for their own reasons which i won't go into, but not for wallace's reasons. wallace's correspondence in the 50's show a lot of resentment. it played on a lot of his need to crusade, and to tell the people his views, and i do not think that, unprovoked by the communist party, wal
