Chapter 6

Becoming President

Franklin’s campaign song had been “Happy Days Are Here Again.” After he was sworn in as the thirty-second president of the United States, Franklin spoke to the nation. He promised them: “Action and action now.” He was going to start new programs to help them. He said, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”

People were certainly afraid. They no longer trusted banks to keep their money safe. So they lined up to take out their savings. Without money, banks were collapsing all over the country.
