Public Works Program Expands Industrial Reach Across Sectors
The broad public works initiative covers highway and forest road construction, slum clearance, public housing, schools and courthouses, water plants, natural resource projects, flood control, and river harbor improvements. Defense adds naval, army housing, aircraft, and motorization. This program influences labor across quarried materials, cement, steel mills, railroads, trucking, and manufacturing.
