Roosevelt confirms NRA continuation and reorganization
President Roosevelt has decided to keep the National Recovery Administration and to reorganize its structure. He has announced plans to divide NRA management among three boards and to take a more direct leadership role, signaling confidence to business and a potential clash with critics. Observers note the move may reassure supporters while drawing scrutiny from conservatives and left-leaning opponents. The plan follows General Johnson’s resignation and aims to influence Congress in January as the recovery act nears expiry.

Roosevelt Moves to Reorganize Policy and Banking Oversight
The President acted swiftly after returning to Washington, dismissing General Johnson and directing new policy machinery through Mr. Richberg. He pushes toward trial and error driven industrial policies while bank examiners face calls for a uniform, less stringent system amid concerns over loan quality and potential bank failures. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation remains a stabilizing factor, but fears persist of widespread failures. Consumers should expect price shifts and tighter meat dairy poultry supplies next spring due to drought and regional surpluses.
