The main contributor was the over value of stocks and the sale of stocks with credit not forgetting the speculator's greed; Hoover was caught up and blamed for things that were not of his making, he was slow in taking action thus received most of the blame. There were several projects started, Tennessee Valley Project, Damns were built, Roads repaired Flood control levies built, any thing to get people off the street. Remember the depression was not just an American problem. In Europe, for instance, people were forced to purchase food every day because the prices would change, sometimes every hour. Sound familiar? There have been some safe guards installed in the economy system, however greed and power will find the loop holes and a sleepy congress can set us up again for bad times. The history web site can be of more assistance. It would take up much space to be complete and it gets personal. nationalhistory.org Terry G. The war was a contributor on both ends of the depression.
