Scope and content

Photograph of the crowd gathered around the speaker’s stand for President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s address at the Bonneville dam construction site on August 3, 1934. A cropped version of this photograph was one of nine that were published on Page 4 of the Oregon Journal on August 4, 1934, under the headline “President Roosevelt Visits One of Administration’s Big Projects.” This photograph had the following caption: “When rain started falling in real earnest, hard enough to wet the clothes, although not enough to dampen the crowd’s ardor, umbrellas were raised; some without umbrellas covered their heads with newspapers—but the fine spirit of the gathering remained at par. At the left is a general view of the concourse during the ‘spell of weather.’ “ See related image Nos. 371N2168, 371N21769, 371N2170, 371N2171, 371N2172, 371N2173, 371N2174, 371N2190, 371N2192, 371N2193, 371N2194, and 371N2197.
