Dan Roper and the New Deal’s business planning council
The article lauds Dan Roper secretary of commerce for organizing a business planning and advisory council within the department to voice industry concerns to the Roosevelt administration. It highlights his push to encourage lending for home building, cites Gen. Robert B. Wood of Sears Roebuck as a key recruit, and notes broader boosts to employment, housing, and defense spending. It also covers fears of communist subversion in the armed forces and explains the administration’s social security proposals, including old age pensions and unemployment insurance, as part of a self supporting fund for future generations.
