President Herbert Hoover Addressing Masses of His Supporters in a Large Conference Centre, 1932. USA. '...there are always those who, though they might waiver, still cling to the maxim: "better the devil you know than the one you don't". Hoover had the advantage of having held office, and for the State of the Union [address] he had his answers. "When the political and economic weakness of many nations of Europe, the result of the World War and its aftermath, finally culminated in the collapse of their institutions, the delicate adjustments of our economic and social and governmental life received a shock unparalleled in our history...Yet these forces were overcome - perhaps by narrow margins - and this action demonstrates that our government has the capacity. It demonstrates what the courage of a nation can accomplish under resolute leadership in the Republican Party".' From "Time To Remember - Around the Corner", 1932 (Reel 4); diary of events in 1932 in the United States of America - Franklin Roosevelt becomes the President.
