Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"A new governmental agency is required."

"I believe that the initiation of this broad and sound program will do much to alleviate distress and to raise perceptibly the standards of good living for many of our families throughout the land."

"The protection of the health and safety of the people demands that this renovizing and building be done speedily."

"Many of our homes are in decadent condition and not fit for human habitation."
