Farm relief bill passes House amid wartime pressure
The Farm relief bill clears the House with votes from both parties. Representatives debate its impact while President Roosevelt faces a broader national economy plan and potential centralization of executive power to cut government spending.
Roosevelt Proposes Three Step Unemployment Relief Plan
The plan begins with immediate enrollment of about 250000 workers into government camps for flood control soil erosion prevention road building and other work directed by the President. Workers receive housing food clothing medical care and up to $1 per day with family portions allocated for dependents. Costs are to be funded by diverting unspent treasury balances for about ten weeks. Labor unions oppose the low wage and Representative Connery refused to introduce the bill. A second step seeks further state grants and a third step would extend a broad public works program including Muscle Shoals power projects extensive reforestation and public buildings at an expenditure around two billion dollars with the President proposing to cover half via a bond issue.
