President Herbert Hoover and Lou Henry Hoover Leaving a Building, 1932. USA. 'In spite of everything, the election of 1932 found the Republicans sure of keeping their power...The bad times were the fault not of government but of world depression. The party must continue to hold the reins, and Herbert Hoover must be the man in the driver's seat. The maxim that Hoover respected was that of an America of business without federal interference. Depression must be beaten by the people fighting by themselves. An admirable maxim, but inadequate for the crisis of 1932'. From "Time To Remember - Around the Corner", 1932 (Reel 3); diary of events in 1932 in the United States of America - Franklin Roosevelt becomes the President.
