Herbert Hoover actually said...

"The purpose of my conference with Members of Congress tonight is to advance a national unity in the setting up of constructive forces in place of destructive forces now working in the depression."

"The only real way to brake this cycle is to restore confidence in the people at large."

"I have consulted and am continuing to consult with every group that can be helpful."

"As I said last night, we are in a degenerating vicious cycle."
