Morgenthau Speech Hails Dollar Stability and Possible Global Action
Secretary Morgenthau said the dollar is sound and the United States is not unwilling to stabilize under certain conditions, framing a cautious New Deal reply to critics. He argued the world should not expect unilateral action, and that any stabilization would come with mutual restraint among major nations. The speech praised Roosevelt policy for averting disaster and suggested no immediate commitment to fix the dollar’s gold content.
