Typed Letter Signed: "Franklin D. Roosevelt" as Assistant
Secretary of the Navy, 1p, 7x9¼. Washington, 1914 May 18. To George A.
Miller, Jr., Esq., Elizabeth, New Jersey. In full: "I have written to the
Chairman of the Interstate Commerce Commission heartily endorsing you for
appointment as senior telegraph and telephone engineer. I do not know whether
the Interstate Commerce Commission will soon make an appointment, but I hope
that my letter will be of some effect. Very sincerely yours," Franklin D.
Roosevelt (1882-1945), the 32nd President of the U.S., served as
President longer than any other man (1933-1945). Roosevelt, who was
elected to an unprecedented four terms as President and served for 12
years before dying in office in 1945, led the nation through two of its greatest
crises, the Great Depression and WWII. He had previously served as Governor
of New York (1929-1933), Assistant Secretary of the Navy (1913-1920),
a post once held by his cousin, Theodore Roosevelt, and as a New York State
Senator (1911-1913), and had been a candidate for the Democratic Vice
Presidential nomination in 1920. Fold crease not near signature. Lightly
toned at fold. Fine condition.
