The Roosevelt administration presses for expanded credit and reopening of closed banks to free frozen assets, with plans to back bank liquidity through the Reconstruction Finance Corp. and to push rails and rolling stock purchases for railways. Reports say many banks remain solvent but illiquid, and the effort includes potential $25 million rails loans and widespread public works funding.

Postmasters' pay prompts rebates and theft schemes
Ostmaster General Jim Farley aims to remove hundreds of fourth class postmasters accused of racketeering as inspectors report schemes to increase cancellations.
