Franklin Roosevelt actually said...

"officers and employees of the United States from holding any office under any State, territorial, municipal, or other local government, is hereby further amended so as to permit any officer or employe..."

"it is hereby ordered that Mrs. Mary G. Bird may be appointed to a classified position in the Farm Credit Administration without compliance with the requirements of the Civil Service Rules."

"I believe that the Congress can constitutionally write an adequate farm act that will be well within the broad meaning and purpose of the Constitution."

"This does not mean that legislation must require immediate uniform minimum hour or wage standards; that is an ultimate goal."
