73rd Congress Ends Peacetime Task With Wide New Deal Powers
The 73rd Congress overrided a presidential veto once and enacted broad New Deal reforms. It approved vast outlays for relief, banking and credit control, agriculture, housing, and public works, and extended executive powers over monetary policy, tariffs, and federal financing to stimulate the economy. It also advanced reform bills on crime prevention, utilities regulation, and foreign debt actions while debating farm policy changes and tax measures.
