HUSH Take Five…What did the politicians do to stop the Great
Depression? What could they have done?Who were the leaders at the time of the
Great Depression?
APUSH Take FiveThe 1932nd Psalm
Hoover is my Shepherd, I am in want,He maketh me lie down on park benches,He leadeth me beside still factories,He restoreth my doubt in the Republican party,He guideth me in the path of the unemployed for his party’s sake,Yea, though I walk through the alley of soup kitchens,I am hungry,I do fear evil, for thou art against me;Thy Cabinet and Senate, they do discomfort me,Thou didst prepare a reduction in my wages,In the presence of my creditors, Thou annointed my income with
taxesSo my expense overrunneth my incomeSurely poverty and hard times will follow meAll the days of the Republican adminstrationAnd I shall dwell in a rented house forever.Amen.
