Roosevelt was elected for an unprecedented four terms, he was one of the
20th century's most skillful political leaders. His New Deal program, a
response to the Great Depression, utilized the federal government as an
instrument of social and economic change in contrast to its traditionally
passive role. Then, in World War II, he led the Allies in their defeat of
the Axis powers.
His father, a semiretired railway executive, was a cousin of Theodore
Roosevelt, the 26th president of the U.S. Although they were not wealthy
by late 19th-century standards, the Roosevelts of Hyde Park led a
comfortable, gracious existence, and young Franklin's life was sheltered;
he was educated by governesses and indulged by his father. A handsome
youth, he was an excellent athlete, expert at boating and swimming, and he
also collected stamps, birds, and ship models -- hobbies that he pursued
all his life.
His formal education began at the Groton School in Massachusetts, where
the headmaster, Endicott Peabody (1857-1944), stressed to his wealthy
young students their obligation toward those who were less fortunate in
society. After graduation from Harvard University in 1904, Roosevelt
attended Columbia University Law School without taking a degree and was
admitted to the New York State bar in 1907. Despite his widowed mother's
objections, he married a distant cousin, in a gala society wedding at
which President Theodore Roosevelt gave the bride away.
Franklin Roosevelt's political career began with his election to the New
York State Senate as a Democrat in 1910. He quickly gained the national
limelight as the leader of an upstate coalition that fought the influence
of New York City's Democratic machine. His support of Woodrow Wilson's
candidacy as the Democratic presidential nominee in 1912 resulted in his
appointment to the post of assistant secretary of the navy, which he held
during World War I. James M. Cox of Ohio, the party's 1920 nominee for the
presidency, chose Roosevelt as his running mate because of his family
name, but the Cox-Roosevelt ticket proved to be no match for the
Republicans under Warren G. Harding.
Roosevelt faced the greatest personal crisis of his life when he was
stricken by poliomyelitis at his Canadian summer home on Campobello
Island, New Brunswick, in 1921. He veiled his deep physical agony with a
cheerful demeanor and rejected his mother's advice that he abandon
politics and become a country squire at Hyde Park. Encouraged by Eleanor
and his dedicated political mentor, Louis McHenry Howe (1871-1936), he
resumed his career by nominating Alfred E. Smith for the presidency at the
Democratic convention in 1924 and again in 1928, when Smith won the
party's nomination. The Democratic party of the 1920s was deeply divided
between Protestant, rural voters, who favored Prohibition, and urban Roman
Catholics, who opposed it. Anxious to win the New York State electoral
vote, Smith persuaded Roosevelt to campaign for the governorship, given
the latter's strong upstate appeal. Roosevelt, deeply in debt and disabled
by polio, won a narrow victory, while Smith was defeated by Herbert
Hoover.
During two terms as governor of New York (1928-32), Roosevelt established
a reputation as a reforming progressive in the Theodore Roosevelt
tradition and as a champion of relief for impoverished upstate farmers.
His greatest struggle -- for control of the Saint Lawrence River
waterpower resource by the state rather than private utilities -- aimed at
providing cheaper electricity for the rural consumer. With the outbreak of
the Great Depression, he identified himself with the urban relief cause by
appointing Harry Hopkins to head the Temporary Emergency Relief
Administration. As the depression deepened, he assembled the "Brains
Trust," a group of faculty members from Columbia University, to formulate
with him a comprehensive program for resolving the economic collapse that
had begun in 1929. With the aid of a progressive-southern Democratic
coalition in 1932, Roosevelt won the party's presidential nomination, then
easily defeated Hoover in the national election.
Roosevelt's promise of "a new deal for the American people" foreshadowed a
revolutionary extension of federal power into the nation's everyday life.
His first three months in office, known as the Hundred Days, were marked
by innovative legislation originating in the executive branch. In a period
of massive unemployment (25 percent of the work force), a collapsed stock
market, thousands of bank closings for lack of liquidity, and agricultural
prices that had fallen below the cost of production, Congress, at
Roosevelt's request, passed a series of emergency measures calculated to
provide liquidity for banking institutions and relief for the individual
and to prevent business bankruptcy. Further, abandonment of the gold
standard in 1933 had the effect of devaluating the dollar in international
markets.
In addition to relief measures, such as creation of the Works Progress
Administration under the direction of Harry Hopkins, the New Deal aimed at
long-range economic solutions to problems stemming from World War I. The
farm depression, a result of overproduction, had begun in 1921 and sent
millions to the cities during the 1920s; Roosevelt regarded it as the root
cause of the economic collapse of the late 1920s. He responded with a
broad agricultural program framed by the Agricultural Adjustment Acts of
1933 and 1938. This legislation introduced production controls for certain
basic commodities, including corn, cotton, wheat, tobacco, and hogs, in
order to create a balance between supply and demand; it promoted
reforestation and conservation and provided subsidy payments for curtailed
planting; and it utilized the concept of an ever-normal granary, balancing
crop surplus against lean years. Creation of the Tennessee Valley
Authority in 1933 benefited one of the nation's most impoverished areas.
This multipurpose development included federal construction of dams to
harness cheap hydroelectric power, water management, improvement of
farming techniques and river navigation, and the construction of hospitals
and schools. New industries attracted by cheap electricity and labor
diversified the southern economy.
Although Roosevelt's ties to the city and organized labor were never
strong, many New Deal measures alienated the business community at the
same time they attracted the urban minorities and the labor movement into
the orbit of the Democratic party. The National Industrial Recovery Act
(NIRA, 1933) began as an industrial stabilization scheme designed to
eliminate cutthroat practices and maintain prices. Section 7a of the law,
which promoted labor unionization, alienated conservative businesspeople,
however. Strict securities-issuance and stock exchange regulation,
enforced by a newly created Securities and Exchange Commission,
intensified business opposition. Benefits provided by the Social Security
Act, by unemployment insurance legislation, and by the Fair Labor
Standards Act of 1938 attracted workers' support. In 1935 and 1936 the
traditional-minded U.S. Supreme Court struck at key New Deal measures by
declaring provisions of both the NIRA and the Agricultural Adjustment Act
unconstitutional.
After winning a resounding victory over Alfred M. Landon in the 1936
presidential election, Roosevelt tried to neutralize the Court by
proposing the appointment of new justices, but Congress rejected this
"court-packing" plan in 1937. In the ensuing years a congressional
coalition of conservative Republicans and Democrats, fearful of growing
federal spending in the 1937-38 depression and anxious to curtail
expansion of federal power into areas traditionally reserved to the
states, checked the New Deal's momentum. The imminence of war in Europe,
followed by U.S. involvement, drew attention away from the president's
domestic defeats and made possible his victories over Republican
candidates Wendell L. Willkie in 1940 and Thomas E. Dewey in 1944.
Roosevelt was a pragmatist in his diplomatic views in the interwar period.
Although he had been a supporter of Woodrow Wilson, he abandoned Wilson's
internationalist ideas when the country turned to isolationism in the
1920s. Then, in the late 1930s, spurred by Adolf Hitler's aggression in
Europe and Japanese expansionism in the Pacific, Roosevelt moved the
United States back toward engagement in world affairs. He was restrained,
however, by the persistence of strong isolationist sentiment among the
voters and by congressional passage of a series of neutrality laws
intended to prevent American involvement in a second world war. Roosevelt
won the contest when, alarmed by Germany's defeat of France in 1940,
Congress passed his lend-lease legislation to help Great Britain's
continued resistance to the Germans. The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
on December 7, 1941, brought the United States into the worldwide contest
on the side of Britain and the Soviet Union.
Roosevelt framed his diplomatic objectives as wartime leader in a series
of wartime conferences. In collaboration with Winston Churchill he
explained Anglo-American war aims in August 1941 in the form of the
Atlantic Charter. It denied territorial ambitions, favored self-government
and liberal international trade arrangements, and pledged freedom from
want and permanent security against aggression. At Casablanca, Morocco, in
January 1943, Roosevelt and Churchill insisted on Germany's unconditional
surrender as a means of preventing the enemy's future military resurgence.
The Québec Conference (August 1943) planned the Normandy invasion. At
Moscow (October 1943) the Allied foreign ministers approved in principle a
postwar organization for world security. Military strategy and the problem
of postwar Germany came under discussion at Cairo (November-December 1943)
and Québec (September 1944). Finally, at Yalta in the USSR (February
1945), Roosevelt, Churchill, and Joseph Stalin broached their plans for a
postwar world. In the process, Roosevelt pressed for admission of China to
the Allied councils as a major power, liberalization of international
trade as a means of preventing future wars, and creation of a United
Nations organization as a mechanism for preserving peace. He did not,
however, see the end of the war. He died of a cerebral hemorrhage.
Roosevelt's vision of a peaceful and stable postwar world foundered on
national ambition. Although he bypassed Churchill and a weakened Great
Britain to deal with Stalin at Yalta, it became apparent on the eve of his
death that Soviet ambitions included the occupation of eastern and central
Europe. His faith in the ability of the UN to keep the peace through the
collaboration of the former wartime Allies proved unworkable in the era of
the cold war.
