‎F. D. R.: His Personal Letters; Early Years‎

‎New York: Duell Sloan and Pearce 1947. First Edition stated presumed first printing. Hardcover. Good/Fair. Format is approximately 5.75 inches by 8.5 inches. xvi 16 pages of illustrations 543 1 pages. Family tree. Illustrations. Index. Front DJ flap price clipped DJ worn and soiled: edge tears/chips several DJ pieces missing. Pencil erasures on endpapers. Foreword by Eleanor Roosevelt. This first volume of Franklin Roosevelt's correspondence covers the period from 1887 when at the age of five he wrote his first letter to 1904 when he graduated from Harvard. Franklin Delano Roosevelt wrote his first letter to his mother in 1887 when he was 5 years old. "Dear Sallie." he scratched with his pen "I am very sorry you have a cold and you are in bed I played with Mary today for a little while I hope by tomorrow you will be able to be up I am glad to say my cold is better your loving Franklin D. Roosevelt." There are several references to Theodore Roosevelt in these letters including criticism of Theodore Roosevelt's actions in settling the 1902 coal strike. Franklin Delano Roosevelt January 30 1882 - April 12 1945 often referred to by his initials FDR was an American politician who served as the 32nd president of the United States from 1933 until his death in 1945. A member of the Democratic Party he won a record four presidential elections and became a central figure in world events during the first half of the 20th century. Roosevelt directed the federal government during most of the Great Depression implementing his New Deal domestic agenda in response to the worst economic crisis in U.S. history. As a dominant leader of his party he built the New Deal Coalition which defined modern liberalism in the United States throughout the middle third of the 20th century. His third and fourth terms were dominated by World War II which ended shortly after he died in office. Roosevelt is widely considered to be one of the most important figures in the history of the United States as well as one of the most influential figures of the 20th century. Historians and political scientists consistently rank Roosevelt George Washington and Abraham Lincoln as the three greatest presidents. Reflecting on Roosevelt's presidency "which brought the United States through the Great Depression and World War II to a prosperous future" said FDR biographer Jean Edward Smith in 2007 "He lifted himself from a wheelchair to lift the nation from its knees." The rapid expansion of government programs that occurred during Roosevelt's term redefined the role of the government in the United States and Roosevelt's advocacy of government social programs was instrumental in redefining liberalism for coming generations. Roosevelt firmly established the United States' leadership role on the world stage with his role in shaping and financing World War II. His isolationist critics faded away and even the Republicans joined in his overall policies. He also created a new understanding of the presidency permanently increasing the power of the president at the expense of Congress. Duell, Sloan and Pearce hardcover‎

‎ROOSEVELT, FRANKLIN DELANO‎

‎FDR on Food Transportation during the Depression‎

‎Recognized as one of the most consequential US presidents Franklin Roosevelt decides a legal question allowing fish to be transported in refrigerated meat trucks. Typed Letter Signed on White House stationery bearing the watermark of the Presidential seal from aboard the "U.S.S. Houston" 2 separate 4to pages Oct. 14 1935. ".there appears to be nothing which would hinder the fishing industry from utilizing the refrigerator cars belonging to others." Roosevelt writes to U. S. Marshall John J. Murphy Boston MA agreeing to allow the fish companies to transport fish in the refrigerated cars owned by meat packing companies. <br /> Murphy sent a 5 1/2 page typed memorandum included explaining in great detail the transportation problem the fishing industry faced . Roosevelt agrees to intervene to facilitate this practical solution and begins his letter with a review of the problem Murphy described. "You state that that industry fish industry has a limited market because refrigerator cars used for transporting meat to the East are returned empty. You attribute the existence of this situation to the so-called 'Consent Decree' and propose that steps be taken to remove the restrictions in order that the facilities which are now employed for the distribution of meats may be made available to the fishing fruit and vegetable industries." Roosevelt reviews the "Consent Decree" explaining that is "was the climax of a suit brought by the Government under the Sherman Anti-Trust Act.against five of the leading packers in 1920" preventing them from using their "facilities in the handling of a large variety of non-meat food products including fish." The Government believed that the packers planned to extend their monopolistic practices to other food products. "It was on this account that packers were required to discontinue any dealing in many non-meat lines." <br /> <br /> Roosevelt reviews Supreme Court decisions which twice upheld the restriction noting the Court "refused to permit a modification of the decree." FDR then reasons that the Decree affects the designated large companies "there appears to be nothing which would hinder the fishing industry from utilizing the refrigerator cars belonging to others who ship perishable commodities to the East. It is my understanding that there is a heavy movement of empty refrigerator cars westward and these include both those which are owned by carriers and whose which are privately owned. If the 'Consent Decree' were modified." to allow packers to transport fish a question would then arise about cost. He advised Murphy to "look into these particular phases of the problem." <br /> <br /> Roosevelt concludes with a statement about the importance of transporting food across the country offering to arrange a conference among the various governmental entities involved. He notes the divergent roles played by the Department of Justice and the Interstate Commerce Commission in light of the Supreme Court restrictions against the meat packing industry. Signed in full "Franklin D. Roosevelt." <br /> <br /> Roosevelt appointed his correspondent John J. Murphy to the position of the U.S. Marshal for the District of Massachusetts in 1935. He served until 1939. Before that Murphy was the first Democratic Mayor of Somerville Mass. 1930-1934 and President of the Boston-based Franklin D. Roosevelt League. Fisherman wanted subsidies similar to the aid FDR had given farmers. In Gloucester earlier Roosevelt met with fishermen and promised aid. FDR likely made his decision to facilitate the movement of fish to help the Gloucester fishermen as well as the fish industry generally. Condition: Very slight chipping at margin folds some soiling at margins. The USS Houston from which FDR wrote our detailed letter was a Northampton-class cruiser of the U.S. Navy first launched in 1929 but sunk in the Battle of Sunda Strait on March 1 1942. President Roosevelt cruised aboard the USS Houston a number of times during his tenure as President . At least four journeys are recorded including this one corresponding with our Oct. 14 letter from October 2-23 1935 see fdr library at Marist College Day by Day events. ." On October 14 FDR's "Day by Day" listing notes "anchored to the eastward of Pedro Gonzales Island" and also notes that he was going fishing with Governor Schley of the Panama Canal. He later traveled with Schley to and through the Gatum locks. The Wikipedia entry for the USS Houston shows a photo of the ship off San Diego in October 1935 "with President Franklin D. Roosevelt on board. She is flying an admiral four-star flag at her foremast peak and the Presidential flag at her mainmast peak. Roosevelt appointed his correspondent John J. Murphy to the position of the U.S. Marshal for the District of Massachusetts in 1935. He served until 1939. Previous to that posting Murphy was the first Democratic Mayor of Somerville Mass. 1930-1934 and President of the Boston-based Franklin D. Roosevelt League. Murphy being from the Boston area would no doubt have been involved in or certainly aware of the fishing industry in Gloucester during the early 1930s. An article on July 15 2010 citing pieces in the New York Times from April through June of 1933 about the fishing industry indicated there had been a series of interactions between the President and the depressed fishing community in Gloucester during 1933. There was a shortage of cod and a surplus of mackerel. Fisherman were known to be dumping their catch to protest the low prices being paid for the fish. They wanted subsidies similar to the aid FDR had given farmer. The President met with the fishermen seemed to be in support of them but on his next visit to Gloucester was asked where that aid he promised was. Nothing had been done to alleviate the problems of the fishing industry. FDR's decision to facilitate transportation of fish as reflected in our letter was made against this problematic background. unknown‎

Additionally President Wilson had warned Germany that continued submarine attacks on merchant and passenger vessels would lead to American retaliation. Roosevelt's views on the conflict with Germany and foreign relations with other countries including Mexico Japan and Korea; National Defense preparedness; Americanism; etc. CONTENTS: Julia Ward Howe's Battle Hymn of the Republic 11 articles conclusion appendix with 4 items: Murder on the High Seas; Americanism; Letter in Reply to Speak at a Mass Meeting on behalf of the Armenians; Record on Preparedness PROVENANCE: Kermit "Kim" Roosevelt Jr. 1916 - 2000 was the grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt. He was a career intelligence officer who served in the Office of Strategic Services and was the mastermind of the Central Intelligence Agency's Operation Ajax which orchestrated the coup against Iran's democratically-elected Mohammed Mossadegh administration and returned Mohammad Reza Pahlavi the Shah of Iran to Iran's Peacock Throne in August 1953 for the purpose of returning Western control of Middle Eastern oil supplies. Assigned to Egypt Roosevelt impressed his colleagues with Project FF which encouraged the Free Officers Movement to carry out a coup d'état in 1952 and Roosevelt developed close CIA links to the new leader Gamal Abdel Nasser. In Egypt under Allen Dulles Kim Roosevelt supervised the CIA's operation to undermine the popular General Neguib and encourage the rise to power of Gamul Abdul Nasser. Even before his decisive victory Nasser was communicating through Roosevelt to make a settlement with Great Britain. These back channel negotiations eventually produced the treaty signed in October 1954. Hugh Wilford: "Roosevelt Jr. had this notion of America forming an alliance with the Arab countries as they emerged from under the sway of Britain and France. He was very concerned with backing Arab nationalists in the region. He saw that as the best way of keeping it within the American orbit as the Cold War was gathering momentum." The Eisenhower administration including Secretary of State John Foster Dulles was initially quite sympathetic towards the Arabist agenda of Roosevelt's and his colleagues and willing to oppose Middle Eastern regimes seen "as backing the Soviet Union rather than the U.S." In discussing Roosevelt's role Wilford describes him as being among "the most important intelligence officers of their generation in the Middle East." .
