Description
Caption: (WX11)WASHINGTON, JUNE 30 -- VANDENBERG CALLS ROOSEVELT 'AUTOCRAT' -- Showing the strain in the part he played in tonight's senate battle over the administration's monetary bill, Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg(R-Mich)reads the attack he let loose on the senate floor to deprive president Roosevelt of his power to devalue the dollar. Devaluation is a juggling trick which fools nobody and ultimately penalizes everbody, he said as he scathingly referred to the President as the "Autocrat of Pennsylvania Avenue" (See Wire Story)(AP Wirephoto)(Wrw62330md)39.

The front and back of this photograph are pictured below.
