Today was a work day. Mr. Bruns was gone and we had Mrs. Vis for a little bit and then Mrs. Ickes came up because Mrs. Vis had to leave. My topic that i researched today was the first hundred days.When Franklin D Roosevelt became president he was determined to get America out of the depression they were in. He did it in his firsrt hundred days of being president. The first day he had congress go through a bunch of bills and they reformed the banking industry in America, industries recovered and agriculture was saved! The Civilian Conservation Corps, the Public Works Administration, and the Tennessee Valley Authority were started when Roosevelt was in office. These acts that he started gave thousands and thousands of people jobs doing things for the public like, building highways, bridges, and other public things needed. On June 16, 1933 Roosevelt's the New Deal was set in action. The New Deal helped but WWII is what really got the American economy back on a solid base. That is all i researched about the hundred days.I researched a little about my other topic which is FDIC, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Federall Deposit Insurance Corporation is here to keep America's confidence in our financial system by insuring deposits in banks and by limiting the effect on our economy when banks intuitions fail. The FDIC was created in 1933 because thousand of banks were failing in the 1920's and 30's. Since the FDIC has been established not one depositer has lost money on a failure. On June 16, 1933, Franklin D Roosevelt signed the Banking Act of 1933, which was apart of starting the FDIC.http://usgovinfo.about.com/library/weekly/bl100bush.htmhttp://www.fdic.gov/about/learn/symbol/index.html
