President Franklin Roosevelt speaks on problems prevailing in America during his Inaugural address in Washington DC, USA.

U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt delivers his Inaugural Address in Washington DC, USA. His remarks include, "Under democratic methods of government, United States can translate national wealth into a spreading volume of human comforts and lowest standard of living can be raised. Millions of families in America live on meager incomes. Millions live an indecent life in cities and on farms. Millions are denied education, recreation and the opportunity to lead a better life. Millions lack to buy the products of farm and factory and by their poverty denying work and productiveness to many other millions. I see one-third of a nation ill-housed, ill-clad, ill-nourished."
