President Roosevelt’s drought inspection trip to Bismarck, North Dakota, during the Great Depression. A motion picture cameraman sets up his camera at a railroad station. Crowd of residents stands by waiting for the President's arrival. A steam locomotive pulling the presidential train arrives at the station. President Roosevelt stands on the rear platform of his train, assisted by his son, Franklin Jr (Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr.), and accompanied by the Governor of North Dakota, Walter Welford, who introduces the President. The President's daughter, Anna, stands at back of the platform. President Roosevelt addresses the crowd and assures them that they will win over problem of drought very soon. He says that plan of cooperation with nature should be worked out. The crowd applauds. The President gives an example of the economic interdependency of the U.S. states, by noting that steel factories in Indiana and other eastern states could not run under full capacity unless the agricultural states bought farm machinery and other equipment from them.
