Effects of Depression Poverty – “Hoovervilles” (Where homeless stayed. Bad Health Working women accused of taking men’s jobs Discrimination increased Gross National Product falls dramatically Rugs/Hobos*

Surviving the Depression America pulled together while riots erupted in Europe Sought political solutions- Rise of Communism and Socialism candidates* See business cycle

Signs of Change 1933 Prohibition ended Empire State building Read page 392*

The Election of 1932 Hoover (in office 1929-1933) blamed world condition, not his control Tried to help: --Highest import tax in history! Still unrest --Hoover seemed cold hearted --Bonus Army marched in Washington (WWI vets wanted their pension EARLY!!)

Government should help vs. Government should not interfere!!! Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) said, “ Private economic is a public trust” Won election over Hoover! See page 396! “So first of all let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”
