This is an excerpt from a radio address given by Senator Huey Long on February 10, 1935.

Mr. Roosevelt rode in on a program that he was going to bring poverty to an absolute end…. He promised to bring down these fortunes. He promised to see there was no such thing as a man without a home and the comforts of a home. He promised there would be no such thing as an unemployed man, and if you consider the fact that 54% of the farm labor is unemployed today, and if you will add these to the industrial statistics, you have got 21,000,000 unemployed…. Count 2½ to 3 people to every unemployed person, since one man usually earns the bread for three, and you have half of the American people today unemployed…. If Mr. Roosevelt [had kept] his promises to the American people, we won’t have all of this trouble.
