F.D.R. IN MARCH 1939 -- '' NEVER IN MY LIFE HAVE I SEEN THINGS MOVING IN THE WORLD WITH MORE CROSS CURRENTS OR WITH GREATER VELOCITY. UP TO THE LAST SUMMER I WAS WILLING TO MAKE MENTAL BETS THAT SUCH AND SUCH A THING WOULD HAPPEN AND SUCH AND SUCH A THING WOULD NOT HAPPEN. TODAY, HOWEVER, I HAVE STOPPED BEING A MENTAL BOOKMAKER BECAUSE SO MANY HORSES ARE SCRATCHED AND SO MANY OTHER HORSES BECOME ADDED STARTERS EACH TWENTY-FOUR HOURS THAT WE ARE NOT EVEN CERTAIN THAT THE TRAINERS, JOCKEYS AND SPECTATORS MAY NOT END UP IN A FREE-FOR-ALL FIGHT IN WHICH THE GRANDSTAND WILL BE BURNED DOWN AND MOST OF THE SPECTATORS, HORSES, TRAINERS AND JOCKEYS GO TO THE HOSPITAL OR THE CEMETERY! WHAT A DAY WE HAVE TO LIVE IN!''
