Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"We are trying to create national defense on the basis of the greatest speed and efficiency, on a national basis."

"I can't see as far ahead as that."

"I think probably the Federal Government would have the right in a future emergency to use the old 'right of eminent domain' against some foreign ship."

"I wouldn't want to put, for instance, a steel plant up at the entrance to the Glacier National Park."
