herbert hoover didn't want to be that far away from the action. and finally they settled on new york after a couple of years and she went back to the girl scouts and became president, again, of the girl scouts of america. she had been the president in the 1920's. she'd been the one that had gotten mrs. warden -- i'm sorry, mrs. wilson to be the first honorary chairlady of the girl scouts of america. so every first lady since then has been honorary chair lady of the girl scouts of america. henne hoover had been president in the 1920's and she won back and she was president in the 19th 30's and spent a lot of the time devoting herself to charitable service and through organizations. and the salvation army and the girl scouts were her big ones . and when she died suddenly of a heart attack in new york in 1944 in st. bartholomew's cathedral, where they had her funeral, the first three rows were filled with girl scouts in uniform, reserved for girl scouts in uniform. rick: this truman was known to be unhappy when away from washington. clifton: oddly, t

protect the american banking system, to preserve confidence in the dollar based on the gold standard herbert hoover directed the federaresee system to make changes, changes that would "keep the american dollar ringing true in every city in america and in the world." the fed responded by raising its discount rate foing erananks pusup ratof interes paid to their depositors. e result -- foreign investors earned more interest and were enticed to leave their money in u.s. banks. the strategy worked. confidence in the dollar was restored and the gold drain was plugged. but there were other more serious ramifications. dr. edward bernsteinformer principal economist u.s.asury department. britain was the most important ading country in the world. if they let the value ofterling ll, say, lative to e ar and the franc, it meant that britain would exporting muchore and importing muchess. we wou be losingxports tohe btish and weould be swampedby british goods. our ers, who were already vi great difficulty, suddenly were confronted with a big drop inhe price of cotton, wheat, and other agcultural eorts. thi

herbert morrison. with that quotation is an officer referring to his subordinates. so in that war a cabinet with something to prove it does not sound as if he tries to do just that to the lord chancellor mr. john simon. with the exclusive public-school effects had a first-class degree from the oxford union when the liberal split just as they make a speech how much i enjoyed reading your speech from yesterday. to give the date of the publication of the great poem at 1694 instead of 1649 even looking at them you could see what he was up against. is easy to imagine the unspoken assumption and tension hesitation and resentment that must have been part of the atmosphere the war cabinet meetings. in fact, church had assembled his own team of rivals as the linking cabinet was deemed during the civil war. maneuvering for a position. the minister of aircraft employed flattery to get what he wanted and sometimes it worked. and to pass a note to serve as first lord of the admiralty i will do all i can to help you. i believe you will do the job better than anyone else. alexande

here is winston churchill leaving the white house after his meeting with herbert hoover. we do not have any idea of what hoover thought about churchill at this time, so i have no evidence to present. i know that churchill both admired and respected hoover but at the same time feared hoover, because he felt that hoover was presiding over the big boom of the american economy. well, of course, that was not going to last. in new york city, at the hotel commodore, with 2000 guests in the audience, churchill gave speeches across the united states, but one of the last beaches he gave before he returned to the u.k. was here in new york city, and he addressed front and center the naval rivalry question, and he has now changed his tune somewhat. is you is if the united states builds up a great navy, that is probably a good thing. it will help britain in the long run, and this rivalry should go away and one of the sentences in his speech, which i just love, it is so churchillian, what is the purpose of speaking the same language of we cannot disagree from time to time? so you can se

he was talking about george herbert walker bush. gary: president george herbert walker bush is the nicest person that has probably ever lived in the white house. there may be people as nice in the future, but there will never be anybody nicer. when president bush was in japan on a visit, he got sick, but being the gentle man he was seated not want to call off the meal. he got really sick during the actual occasion. when he came back to the white house, it was a monumental trip that included other countries. i interviewed the resident staff, about half of them joined me, and i got surgical masks and put them on everybody when he was coming back in. he stopped by to say something to the press. barbara bush walked in and looked around the room and saw these surgical masks. she broke up laughing and said, george bush is going to fire you all. she turned to me and said, especially you. president bush walked in from the outside and broke up and proceeded to shake hands with everybody and sign their masks. brian: did he ever write a book?

secretary of commerce herbert hoover called the flood the greatest peacetime calamity in the history of the country. the disaster was predictable. the mississippi had flooded before. local authorities attempted to pvide flood control but with uneven efforts. the levee systemis only as strong as its weakest link. the building of dams could have prevented the flood. some legislators wanted to use federal funds. but they faced tough opposition on capitol hill. dams not only control floods but they can be used to generate hydroelectric power. that presented a threat of competition to the private utilities. to justify the expenditure required to build these dams electricity had to be sold. that would be produced by these hydroelectric units which were to be installed in the dams. that feature disturbed people who opposed tva. they thought that was a function the government ought not to engage in. the private utilities were successful in their opposition until 1933 when a newdministration with an activistiew of government's role came into power. franklin delano roosevelt created e tennesse
