Louis McFadden

(July 25, 1876 – October 1, 1936) Republican member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Pennsylvania, Chair of the House Committee on Banking and Currency from 1920-1931

In 1933, he introduced House Resolution No. 158, Articles of impeachment for the Secretary of the Treasury, two assistant Secretaries of the Treasury, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, and the officers and directors of its twelve regional banks.

There were two attempts on McFadden's life, a failed shooting and an apparent poisoning that made him "violently ill" after attending a political banquet in Washington. He died in 1936 on a visit to New York City and was interred in East Canton Cemetery in Canton, Pennsylvania.
