Roosevelt denies selling planes to Russia in 1934
In a telegram conversation Elliott Roosevelt, son of the President, denies any plan to sell 50 military planes to Russia for a $500,000 commission in 1934. He says he represented Fokker only in selling commercial transports and did not agree to government sales. A deposition alleged a $5,000 cash payment to Roosevelt and a later $6,666 check, which Tiffany says was stopped.
