 : Franklin Roosevelt and Mayor La Guardia in masonic group


Franklin Roosevelt and Mayor La Guardia in masonic group

Nazi Scoop - Roosevelt a Mason.: This is the picture with which the Nazi Press made good its threat to Tear the lid right off Roosevelt'. It shows the President seated amid a group of men all wearing Masonic Regalia. To the Nazis this may come under the heading of a sensational expose, but to the literate world it is no secret, for all reference books on F.D.R. List his Masonic membership. The Nazis described the picture as having been taken in 1930. But actually it was made in 1935 when the President attended the initiation of his sons, James (immediately behind his father) and Franklin Jnr, to the right of James. Mayor La Guardia is also present, to the right of James
