This Week's Trivia Question:
In 1932, President Franklin Roosevelt confided to Rexford Tugwell, a Columbia University economist and member of his “Brain Trust,” that the two most dangerous men in America were Huey Long and which other person: (1) J. Edgar Hoover; (2) Douglas MacArthur; or (3) Al Capone?
Answer:
According to Robert Goldston’s "The Great Depression: the United States in the Thirties,” the 2nd man named by Roosevelt was General Douglas MacArthur, who in 1932 had garnered much press attention for ruthlessly expelling World War I veterans from their encampment in Washington, D.C., where they had gathered to ask Congress to pay them their war bonuses early.
