FDR
The Public Record
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the 32nd President of the United States, serving from March 4, 1933, until his death on April 12, 1945. A member of the Democratic Party, he was born in New York and is best known for his leadership during two of the most significant crises in American history: the Great Depression and World War II. Roosevelt implemented the New Deal, a series of programs and reforms aimed at economic recovery and social welfare, which fundamentally reshaped the role of the federal government in American life.

Victory and a secure peace are the only coin in which we can be repaid.

To make time and thus save lives and suffering, our American workers, employers, and farmers will need not only to maintain their production pace but to increase it.
The war effort will be unduly impeded or delayed by such interruption.

General Eisenhower has, by skillful planning and direction, made an outstanding contribution to the war effort of the Allied Nations.
The loss to this Nation is just as real as if the destruction had been wrought by enemy bombers over America, or by saboteurs.
This Nation's war program is menaced by an alarming increase in preventable fire losses.
Whereas by Executive Order No. 9366 of July 30, 1943, the Secretary of the Interior was designated as agent for the sale and distribution of electric power and energy generated at the Denison Dam Project.
Only by this united endeavor can America guard her productive power against fire and eliminate a major hazard that threatens seriously to reduce supplies of war materials, food, clothing, and other essentials required by our fighting men…
I earnestly request the people of the country to take unusually active measures during that week, and throughout the year, to conserve our human and material resources from destruction by fire.
I hereby except from the classification 'alien enemy' all persons whom the Attorney General, the Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization, or any District Director of the Immigration and Naturalization Service shall, after…
