During Great Depression, Georgia Governor Eugene Talmadge speaks out against New Deal in Macon, GA

[Shaky footage throughout] Two shots of Georgia Gov. Eugene Talmadge standing on stage, VO cheers and applause; SOTs "...the federal government is working consistently to tear down states' rights. If the present program is continued for more than four years, the line between the States will be only a shadow on paper, and the Government of the separate States will be subservient to the will of a central power at Washington"; New Deal is holding back natural recovery of nation's economy; "Go back to the doctrine of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, who warned us that autocrats would rise up in the name of emergency to tear down our form of government. And that sturdy soldier, George Washington, said that whenever this happens, to rise up and smite them. Nineteen hundred and thirty-six will go down in history equal in importance with July the 4th of 1776" / Talmadge finishes speech, officials on stage applaud
