The President's Mystery is a 1936 American film directed by Phil Rosen.
The film is also known as One for All in the United Kingdom.
The film deals with a "problem Mr. Roosevelt submitted . . . whether it was possible for a man, weary of faithless friends and a wasted life, to convert a $5,000,000 estate into cash, disappear and start anew in some worth-while activity."
