The Great Depression (1929-39) was the deepest and longest-lasting economic downturn in the history of the Western industrialized world. In the United States, the Great Depression began soon after the stock market crash of October 1929, which sent Wall Street into a panic and wiped out millions of investors. Over the next several years, consumer spending and investment dropped, causing steep declines in industrial output and rising levels of unemployment as failing companies laid off workers. By 1933, when the Great Depression reached its nadir, some 13 to 15 million Americans were unemployed and nearly half of the countryâs banks had failed. Though the relief and reform measures put into place by President Franklin D. Roosevelt helped lessen the worst effects of the Great Depression in the 1930s, the economy would not fully turn around until after 1939, when World War II kicked American industry into high gear.

1Q) which were the main causes of great depression?
From the book of history economy I have learnt about the economic situations in America and among them the most devastating was Great Depression. In the year March 1930 when Herbert Hoover was president when the Great Depression started. The main problem was to the farmers who suffered the heavy prices and indebtedness. There was a decline in the economic activity. There was also the crash in stock market, banking crisis also existed and also smooth Hawley tariff came into existence. He proclaimed in that the U.S. Had "passed the most noticeably awful" and contended that the economy would get itself straightened out. The most noticeably bad had started and it endured till the flare-up of World War II in 1939.There are a few reasons for the Great Depression which are generally bantered about. There was no single reason, however a few things conflicted with to get it going. Few noteworthy reasons were a feeble saving money framework because of Federal Reserve Monetary Policy, over creation of merchandise in industry and agribusiness, over spending and blasting credit gurgled, unequal circulation of riches, high duties and war obligations. Political changes 1928 Presidential decisions, Stock Market accident and money related frenzy.
It was noted that The Wall Street Crashed in 1929 was the most devastating crash in the history of the United States. On October 1929 is called âBlack Tuesday.â the stock market lost $14 billion, making the loss for that week an astounding $30 billion. It took 23 years for the stock market to hit the high it was at before the crash. It was also published in New York times about the new of stock market crashing.The news of stock market crash spread like a wild fire cause panic, customers rushed to banks for withdrawing money causing disastrous âbank runsâ. Many wealth people lost their total wealth and committed suicide. Many companies were shut down and lot of people lost their jobs. It was noted at the peak of depression 1 out of every 4 people were jobless. Between 1930 and 1935 nearly 750,000 farms were lost through bankruptcy or sheriff sales.
People who lost their homes often lived in what were called âHoovervillesâ or shanty towns that were named after President Herbert Hoover. There was also âHoover Stewâ which was the name for food handed out to the poor at soup kitchens. âHoover Blanketsâ were the newspapers that were being used to cover people like a blanket. âHoover Hogsâ were jack rabbits that were used for food, and âHoover Wagonsâ were broken down cars that were pulled by mules. People who became homeless would ride on railroad cars, because they didnât had money to travel. It is believed that more than 50,000 people were injured or killed while jumping trains. They traveled together and were called âHobosâ.
The living conditions at that time in United States of America were miserable there was not enough food, shelter or medical care. Many suffe ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Â
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
⢠The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
⢠The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate âany matterâ at âany timeâ under House Rule X.
⢠The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
Â
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasnât one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

1. Definition
A worldwide economic downturn that began in 1929 and lasted
until about 1947. It was the longest and most severe depression
ever experienced by the industrialized Western world, sparking
fundamental changes in economic institutions, macroeconomic
policy, and economic theory.
Chapter 11
1929-1932
Brother can you spare a dime?
2. Optimism thrived during the prosperity of the 1920âs, but it was a prosperity flawed
by, among other things, overextension of credit and inadequate worker purchasing
power. When economic well-being gave way to recession in 1929 and ultimately
depression, the shock discredited constitutional government in those nations lacking
a strong liberal tradition and already bedeviled by frustrated nationalists. Leaders
complained in Germany, Italy, and Japan that their nations did not have fair access
to raw materials, markets, and capital investment areas, all of which were necessary
for their economic health. They argued that their nations were the victims of
economic warfareâwith its protective tariffs, managed currencies, and cutthroat
competitionâand that they had been left behind in the race for economic self-sufficiency
and a favorable balance of trade. They made it plain that they would
fight, if necessary, for a better economic status.
Because they felt that democracy had failed, the people of those countries looked
with increasing favor on antidemocratic elements that glorified war as the means of
national salvation. In Italy, Mussoliniâs cries that Italians needed both colonies and
glory struck a responsive chord. In Germany, Hitlerâs National Socialists gained
power in 1933. Meanwhile Japanese militarists won a preponderant influence in the
inner circle of their government. America lost a lot of its freedoms to a socialist
method of government and strong arm tactics to confiscate the nationâs gold and
3. I. OBJ #1- Cause & Spark of the Depression
A. Causes of the Depression
1. Overproduction, too much stuff (Factories and Farms)
a. Factory Workers begin to get laid-off
- Workers cannot buy goods, even more goods are overproduced
b. Farmers Canât Survive
- -low prices (canât pay loans / make a living)
c. Supply & Demand- Prices Drop
2. Bank Failures
a. Banks close and loose $$$
b. People default on loans (Canât pay back)
c. Banks cannot cover their deposits, because it was lent out to bad creditors
**5,000 banks close between 1929-1932**
d. People lose entire LIFE SAVINGS
4. Factories making too
much; Farms growing
too much
Factories fire workers
(They arenât needed)
Farm prices fall
(Farmers canât make $$)
Farmers & Factory Workers
canât pay back loans to Banks:
DEFAULT!!
BANKS have NO $$
PEOPLE LOST SAVINGS & JOBS
Economy has to reset through
deflation or new markets have to be
created
The government steps in to control
Banks close because they
have no money: Loans
have not been paid back,
canât give people their
savings

a. Summer 1929, Investors begin to sell stocks
b. Supply & Demandâ Massive Sell-Off and prices begin to tank
2. How???
a. Buying on Margin (Borrowing $$)
- Buy stock by just paying a small portion of what the stock
is worthâsometimes as low as
10%
ex.- 100 shares at $10= $1000 only pay $300
still owe $700
- Problem: stocks crash, margins are called in, you loose
your money and canât payback your stock broker
- stock broker canât pay back bank
- there is no such thing as a free lunch because the
government was not going to print more money and
devalue the purchasing power of the dollar

16. The Dust Bowl is a popular name for the approximately 150,000- sq./mi. (388,500-
sq./km) area that includes the Oklahoma and Texas panhandles and adjacent parts
of Colorado, New Mexico, and Kansas. The area is characterized by light soil, a
low annual rainfall of 15 in. (380 mm), and high winds.
The first white settlers used the region for livestock grazing. Early in the 20th
century, however, farmers began to plow up the natural grass cover and planted
winter wheat. The area suffered from severe drought between 1934 and 1937, and
without the complex root system of the grasses to anchor it, much of the soil was
picked up by the winds. The resulting dust storms and sandstorms were so severe
that roads and houses were buried, and clouds from the storms were observed
hundreds of miles away. More than half the population left the area. The federal
government replanted grass, planted trees, and introduced scientific agricultural
methods, and as a result farming became possible again. The Dust Bowl endured
other, less severe droughts in the 1950s and â60s. The migration and hardships of
the Dust Bowl farmers are described in John Steinbeckâs novel The Grapes of
Wrath (1939).

ď Unemployment at its worst was 25%
ď Corporate profits were negative in 1931, 1932, and 1933.
ď Hooverâs incessant meddling with the economy with government interventions turned the recession
of 1929 into the Great Depression.
ď Hoover implored big business to keep wages high (which they did) while prices were falling
causing mass unemployment.
ď Federal Farm Board subsidized farmers and bought their crops above world market prices to hold
the crops off the market for prices to rise. Canada and Argentina filled the world void and America
was stuck with the crops. There were too many farmers!
ď Smoot-Hawley Tariff increased the price of exports by 59% and foreign countries retaliated against
us, especially the automobile industry.
ď Andrew Mellon, Secretary of the Treasury, did an about-face and championed a massive tax
increase from 25% to 63%. Vast spending on public-works in 4 years out spent the previous 30
years.
