New Deal Plan Promises Wide Public Works Program
President Roosevelt unveils a 33.3 billion public works program financed by bonds over 15 to 20 years including 250 to 335 million for highways and a re employment tax. The bill permits limited anti trust exemptions for industrial cooperation and creates an industrial control board to oversee trade accords. Railroad legislation seeks consolidation under a federal supervisor to curb waste and unemployment. A new farm relief act funds 2 billion for mortgage financing and allows price supports and anti trust exemptions for basic commodities with upcoming producer conferences and market moves. The speech urges halting farm mortgage foreclosures until refinancing systems are in place and notes potential refinancing via Federal Land Bank bonds. The trade boom grows with gains across power, rail, steel, construction, retail, cotton and textiles signaling broader recovery.
