Henry Morgenthau, Jr. - FDR’s Sec of the Treasury/1947 Typed Note Signed
Henry Morgenthau, Jr. (1891-1967) - United States Secretary of the Treasury during most of the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt. He played a major role in designing and financing the New Deal. After 1937, while still in charge of the Treasury, he played the central role in financing United States participation in World War II He also played an increasingly major role in shaping foreign policy, especially with respect to Lend-Lease, support for China, helping Jewish refugees, and proposing (in the “Morgenthau Plan”) to prevent Germany from again being a military threat.
Morgenthau was the father of Robert M. Morgenthau, who was District Attorney of Manhattan for 35 years and Henry Morgenthau III, an American author and television producer. He continued as Treasury secretary through the first few months of Harry Truman's presidency, and from June 27, 1945, to July 3, 1945, following the resignation of Secretary of State Edward Stettinius Jr. , was next in line to the presidency. Morgenthau was thus the first Jew to be in the presidential line of succession.
