Answer:

The most famous speech in American political history was delivered by William Jennings Bryan on July 9, 1896, at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The issue was whether to endorse the free coinage of silver at a ratio of silver to gold of 16 to 1. (This inflationary measure would have increased the amount of money in circulation and aided cash-poor and debt-burdened farmers.) After speeches on the subject by several U.S. Senators, Bryan rose to speak. The thirty-six-year-old former Congressman from Nebraska aspired to be the Democratic nominee for president, and he had been skillfully, but quietly, building support for himself among the delegates. His dramatic speaking style and rhetoric roused the crowd to a frenzy. The response, wrote one reporter, “came like one great burst of artillery.” Men and women screamed and waved their hats and canes. “Some,” wrote another reporter, “like demented things, divested themselves of their coats and flung them high in the air.” The next day the convention nominated Bryan for President on the fifth ballot. The full text of William Jenning Bryan’s famous “Cross of Gold” speech appears below. The audio portion is an excerpt. [Note on the recording: In 1896 recording technology was in its infancy, and recording a political convention would have been impossible. But in the early 20th century, the fame of Bryan’s “Cross of Gold” speech led him to repeat it numerous times on the Chautauqua lecture circuit where he was an enormously popular speaker. In 1921 (25 years after the original speech), he recorded portions of the speech for Gennett Records in Richmond, Indiana. Although the recording does not capture the power and drama of the original address, it does allow us to hear Bryan delivering this famous speech.]

Ganezh [65]

The Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact , officially known as the Treaty of Non-aggression between Germany and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics

Explanation:

  • At that time, a secret protocol envisaged the partition of Poland and sealed the fate of the Baltic states that belonged to the Soviet Union. Finland, Bessarabia and Northern Bukovina are also classified in the Soviet interest zone.
  • As a big surprise for the whole world, including the inhabitants of the USSR and the Third Reich, the Treaty of Friendship and State Borders followed in a few weeks.
  • Hitler was especially in a hurry to make agreements with the Soviets, as he planned to invade Poland before the autumn rains.
