Herbert Hoover reads from his papers

In a wood-panelled room with a telephone mounted on the wall, the heavy, round-faced Herbert Hoover in a dark three-piece suit sits in a patterned armchair and reads aloud from typed sheets; at the desk beside him a younger man with books piled at his elbow writes on a pad. After leaving the White House in 1933 the former president became one of the most persistent critics of Roosevelt's New Deal.
