Humpty Dumpty dollar and gold standard chatter
A jumble of phrases mocks the dollar and gold standard, referencing New York chamber of commerce, Uncle Sam, and a 1948 style foreshadowing. It names Jimmy Weddell and mentions rapid travel, Millikan and Anderson, Troquois laws, Arab crowds, and a fatal car incident in East Orange.

Governors press for drastic farm plan under Roosevelt
Five Midwest governors urged President Roosevelt to implement within 40 days a drastic price fixing and production control program for agriculture. They sought quotas and fixed prices for beef cattle hogs corn wheat milk and butterfat plus licensing of handlers to enforce the plan. They claimed compulsion is necessary to achieve farm relief and warned current voluntary efforts lack guaranteed production. The plan faced objections over cost enforceability and farmer acceptance, with critics arguing it would require government operations and billions in federal funds.
