BANK HOLIDAY/ EMERGENCY BANKING ACT Luke Engelhardt and Tim Gillespie

Bank Holiday Purpose: shut down banks to prevent collapse and to gain public confidence Enacted 2 days after FDR’s inauguration March 6 th to March 9 th, but extended to March 13 th for additional banks Banks shutdown Banks went under review: if the bank was deemed healthy it was to be reopened, if not the bank was closed until it was ready to reopen. It was a success however Had questionable constitutionality

The Emergency Banking Act Passed during the banking crisis Purpose: strengthen nation’s banking system Reason: prevent a banking system collapse Passed by FDR in 1933 Unanimous vote by the House of Representatives Took effect immediately

How it Worked Allowed the government to issue new currency Removed national gold standard Federal examination of banks prior to reopening Roosevelt enforced reinvestment Fireside chats FDR Broadcasts over the radio Gave hope and kept morale of people positive Connected the president with the country more

Change in Government Powers Government gained control over banks Control lasted for the state of emergency Permission of RFC to purchase stock of failing banks Major powers given to the secretary of Treasury Led to Glass-Steagal Act which gave the Federal Reserve more power to banks

The Government and the Economy During a state of emergency: -Government control over foreign exchange -Bank shut down (Bank Holiday) -Sec. Treasury Gold to currency exchange -Made bank operation unlawful Allowed for the issuing of new currency No nationalization of banks

Successful? YES!!! Roosevelt said reinvestment in banks was safe Public more confident Deposits to reopened banks exceeded withdrawals Just 8 days after FDR took office Some believed government was overstepping boundaries, but was not overturned

Progress under FDR
