The correct answer to this open question is the following.

What might this article communicate to the readers is that President Franklin D. Roosevelt was in great danger under the circumstances that the country was living and that the Secret Service had designed a plan to grant the security of the President during his short trip over the indirect mile and a quarter route from the Executive Mansion to the Capitol and back to the White House. The United States was about to enter World War II after the Pearl Harbor attack in December 1941. President Roosevelt had to ask Congress for a formal declaration of war.
