Daniel Roper and the Roosevelt Cabinet A Loyal Yet Diminished Role

Daniel C. Roper rose from South Carolina politics to head the internal revenue service and then became secretary of commerce under Roosevelt. The NRA era reshaped his tenure, leaving him a capable organizer overwhelmed by a vast, shifting New Deal bureaucracy. His efforts to engage press and industry were tempered by Johnson and Swope clashes, but his calm humor and steady leadership persisted as he guided assistants like John Dickinson and William L. Thorp.
