Roosevelt is shown addressing a crowd outdoors in Yonkers, New York, a setting that places the speech in a city just north of Manhattan rather than in Washington. The title comes from Bain News Service caption data, which has not been independently verified, so the exact occasion remains uncertain. Bain's photographers recorded public figures and events across New York in the early twentieth century, and glass negatives like this one hold fine tonal detail that helps viewers study how outdoor political appearances were arranged in that period.
