Smoot case fascinating
5 comments | Read story
Worse, the tight money policies of another Utahn... Marriner S. Eccles, who was chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank throughout the Depression... also did the economy considerable damage.
I'm sure this new book from Signature Books is interesting, but when I read professor Flake's book it really helped me to understand the events of Reed Smoot, and how they have affected Utah and the LDS church up to today. I'd recommend going to Amazon.com and getting it.
This new book is interesting, and only 389 pages. It really helped me to understand why there is so much difficulty for members to maintain loyal to both church,government and their civil positions.
Uhh...Smith said point blank that he did not receive revelations.
The reason I find the Smoot hearings so fascinating, is that church leaders told straight-faced lies the whole way through. Read the transcripts!
