Roosevelt Narrowly Escapes Assassination in Miami
News review recalls the 1930s bayfront park scene where President Roosevelt survived an anarchist gunfire aimed at him. Mayor Anton Cermak of Chicago was seriously wounded, with two other men and two women injured. Roosevelt remained calm, helped Cermak to a hospital, and continued his public duties. The assassin, Giuseppe Zangara of New Jersey, acted alone and faced swift justice. The article weaves in currency policy debates and congressional maneuvering surrounding Roosevelt’s forthcoming economic measures and budget-balancing efforts.

Littman Bill Aims Silver Debt Settlement With Britain
Senator Littman introduced a bill to let the United States accept up to 100 million dollars in silver from Great Britain for debt payments due in June. The measure would also enable Britain to pay India’s roughly 8 million dollar debt with silver at worldmarket prices, potentially aiding American interests by avoiding gold transfers. The plan hinges on a silver price around 23 cents per ounce, a level unlikely to recur.
