New Roosevelt relief measures aid farmers workers and homeowners
Washington reports the Roosevelt administration pushed a special session package to ease the slump. A civilian conservation corps, a $2 billion farm mortgage refinancing fund, a similar fund for small homes, and a $3.3 billion public works program would be financed by new taxes. A $500 million federal relief fund backs direct grants to states, with some grants not repayable. The plan also creates a federal state employment system and uses Reconstruction Finance Corporation funds to issue bonds and support refinancing while offering moratoria on some payments.
