Washington observers note expanding federal influence under the New Deal. Agencies like RFC and the Federal Trade Commission shape banking, investments, and code compliance, with looming clashes between NRA codes and FTC powers. Forestry programs aim to conserve forests and coordinate federal state private efforts, as liquor smuggling concerns grow and duties/taxes face scrutiny.
