Hoovers program during Depression
What was Hoover’s program during the Depression?
Expert
Hoover did a lot to help people during Depression. He persuaded Congress to use $500 million a year to public works, building or improving government properties not primarily because the work was needed but so as to put people to work. The greatest achievement of this time was the Hoover Dam. It was a 700 foot high, 1200 foot wide wall of concrete spanning the Colorado River southeast of Las Vegas that, 70 years after its completion, is still among the world’s greatest feat of engineering. Hoover’s Reconstruction Finance Corporation was a federal agency that funded money to banks, railroads and other vital corporations that were teetering on the edge of collapse.
