So today like the internet wouldn’t really work, and we are on a two hour late start so we have shortened classes. Instead of waisting time Mr. Bruns did his presentation.
Herbert Hoover was the president during the depression and many people did not like him they thought he didn’t care and didn’t help during the depression.
Fireside chat- where Roosevelt spoke over the radio. He was the first president to do that.
FDIC- benefited the banks. Insured peoples money in the banks. Today its up to $200,000.
NIRA– out to help the common worker. Garenteed them 40 hours a week. Blue eagle code- ensure they treated their workers fairly. If one restraunt had a blue eagle and another didn’t you would prolly go to the one with the blue eagle code because it showed they treated there workers right.
Stephanie did her presentation on Charles Coughlin and soil conservation act
Charles Coughlin- said the new deal was bad and criticized Roosevelt. Saying he wasn’t doing enough to help the poor.
Soil Conservation act- passed in 1936. designed to help farmers. This act helped correct problems from the previous act. Educated farmers to use their land with out damaging them.
