Unemployment Crisis and CIO Housing Push Move Forward
Unemployment rises by 300000 as unions and the White House press for remedies. The CIO calls for income tax cuts for the poor, big public works, social security improvements, and housing, while housing legislation advances in Congress amid real estate opposition. Ike critiques federal education aid, Morse denounces the critique, and a Norwegian union delegation praises the U.S. labor movement despite concerns about racial prejudice and economic instability.
