This legislation will serve the investor by ending the conditions that have caused that lack of confidence and good will.

This legislation will not only in the long run result in providing lower electric and gas rates to the consumer, but it will protect the actual value, the actual earning power of properties now owned by thousands of investors who have little protection under the old laws against what used to be called frenzied finance. And remember that it will not destroy legitimate values.” Courtesy of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library What is the best summary of Roosevelt's argument? A.
