Recovery costs reach 4 billion under New Deal program
Washington reports that the recovery program cost the United States about 4.3 billion dollars from March 4, 1933 to the present, with roughly a third for direct relief and the rest for non direct recovery. Direct relief totals 1.65 billion, while the Reconstruction Finance Corp and public works account for 1.35 billion. Credit aid and conservation receive hundreds of millions. A yardstick idea links 1,000 dollars in recovery money to one job, prompting speculation on broader unemployment figures.
