Power Point Two:

CCC Camps

FERA: part of the 100 days legislation. like the start of welfare system. provided work constructing things. provided relief for people. mattress making was big. did some direct aid

PWA: creating many jobs as possible. construction jobs. 70 percent of all new schools were built by the pwa in  the 30's. every state had something made by them

CWA: 100 days program.. same as pwa. problem was it was too costly. paid workers too high.

WPA: did slot of the same stuff. largest new deal agency. making work. spend money making jobs for lots of different people.. unskilled workers. did some things differently.. helped artists and musicians.. not just construction people..

camp david: built by wpa.. vacation spot of the president of the us. some choose to go there more than others. official vacation spot

NYA: stayed at home. helping young people.

EBRA: banks were closing daily so FDR said to close banks down so they dont close down.. reorganize and fix.
