Students at the Notre Dame School, "The Great Depression." 26 Nov 2008 .


Reading another portion of the article i learned further more that the stock market crash of October 1929 brought the economic prosperity of the 1920s to a symbolic end. For the next ten years, the United States was mired in a deep economic depression. By 1933, unemployment had soared to 25 percent, up from 3.2 percent in 1929. Industrial production declined by 50 percent, international trade plunged 30 percent, and investment fell 98 percent.

This was a sign during the Great Depression, because families were very much into stay at home moms so when the great depression happened men couldnt care for there own, or there household. So many filed for bankruptcy and many were forced to another kind of lifestyle.

This family is poor evidently they are victims of the great depression they lived in the South. You would think it would stop the buisness flow in the NORTH. But many families in the south had there farms and ranches low on stock because the nation was low on MONEY. The great deppresion was a serious situation. THANK GOD FOR F.D.R

Franklin Roosevelt and the great depression
The main idea is that Franklin Delano Roosevelt had ran the white house excellent and stopped the continuous clown turn of America.

The way I will interpret the significance of the subject at matter Franklin Roosevelt and the Great Depression, proving if we can truly give him the glory for ending the tragic, and his support given to the people of the United States of America. You will except to see the things that F.D.R proposed and followed through in his presidency. The Great Depression was a tragic thing that happen in America it left families bankrupt and unemployed, can we point the finger at the president during this time, Hoover and after the Great Depression is over who do we point the finger to on saving, the current president. Well the current president we speak of is Franklin Roosevelt. He was elected in 1939 and contributed numerous ideas such as the NEW DEAL, that help America gain back its reputation so we can definitely say that he won the populations support right? You will expect to see the things that F.D.R proposed and followed through in his presidency and precisely judged weather or not he had much to do with the end of the Great Depression.

The great Depression was a tragic thing that happen in America and it affected the world. It left the families bankrupt and unemployed, can we point the finger at the president during this time, Hoover and after the Great Depression is over who do we point the finger to an saving, the current president. Well the current president we speak of is Franklin Roosevelt. He was elected in 1939 and contributed numerous ideas such as the New Deal that helped America going back its reputation so we can definitely say that he won the population vote in everyone’s mind.

During the 1930’ what epidemic occurred that affected the country and it affected the nation world-wide. The Great Depression, it was an downturn in the economy, and the recover of this impact wasn’t until the president F.D.R was elected. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was Americas 32nd president and he came to the white house, and he had his work cut out for him. Prior to Franklin Delano Roosevelt election the president was Herbert Hoover under his first year came the great depression, is he liable?

The Great Depression had dropped ratings 24.9 were unemployed which impact on the world economic slump in Germany preferably because American loans to rebound the economy had stopped. Australia was the hardest hit countries in Western world falling export demand and commodity prices placed massive downward pressures on wages.

We cant completely give credit to the president. The real causes of the great depression is debate table. If studied thoroughly a deflation is asset and commodity prices, dramatic drops in demand and credit and distribution of trade making widespread poverty. Some people just blame the president for yet barely a year before the Depression began, but he could have slowed it down in his 4 years in office.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt is contributed many ideas to stop the Depression from going downhill. Not all of his ideas were widely in favor of. When Roosevelt was elected in March 1933, the country was suffering the worst depression in its history. Since the country needed an immediate relief its first 100 days he passed an bill to propose programs. Relief measures included the original plans of Hoover, but it took a new name Federal Emergency Relief Administration, so obviously Franklin Delano Roosevelt took in his hands to put America in the right path finically. He did this by organizing different and new organizations and plans for America. CCC which stands for civilian conservation cops was Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s favorite, congress also gave the FTC. CCC was to hire 250,000 unemployed young men to work for rural local projects. Roosevelt advanced the reconstruction Finance the Agricultural Adjustment Administration and more. The Second Deal began from 1935-1936, after the election in 1934 Roosevelt had been a favorite in bot democratic parties. The first deal the new had been widely based around agriculture. Conservative Democrats, led by Al Smith fought back and attacked him having him equated with Marx and Lenin.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt had many other contributions disregarding the great depression. He had new laws and regulations for him immigrates he was successful president.

In conclusion Franklin Delano Roosevelt the Untied States of Americas 32nd president came to the white house with an depression. To be more frank the great depression which was the worst period of economy nation-wide. In his 2 terms of presidency he turned everything around. The unemployed level, the agricultural values and the business community had increased in profit and he made 18.31 million jobs with his ideas and bills passed. So in the end when the curtains fall we know who to tribute respect to, Franklin Delano Roosevelt who completely was a inspiring leader and president.
