Product Description

Table of Contents: Disc 1 - Work Pays America (1937) 31 minutes - This film shows all the helpful aspects of the Works Project Administration. / We Work Again (1930s) 11 minutes - This WPA (Works Project Administration) film tries to convey that the New Deal is beneficial for African-Americans. / Better Housing News Flash (1935) 4 minutes - A great government propaganda piece about the benefits of The National Housing Act. / National Recovery Administration Promo (1933) 3 minutes - This is an interesting promo for the NRA made by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. / Man Against the River (1937) - Terrific footage of the WPA (Works Project Administration) dealing with the Ohio River flood of 1937. / Shock Troops of Disaster (1938) 11 minutes - This 1938 film has some of the best early hurricane damage footage around. A giant hurricane came on the New England shore in 1938, and this film shows how the Works Project Administration came in and tried to stop the bleeding. / The River (1937) 30 minutes - This is a great documentary about the Mississippi River and the way it has been exploited. It shows the side of the people who use the river for their own economic benefit as well as the side of the people who are trying to stop the misuse of the river. / Rain For The Earth (Incomplete ~ No Ending) (1937) 10 minutes - This film discusses the desperation that the drying land caused the Dust Bowl farmers and their families, as well as the U.S. government's failed attempts to help the people maintain their farms.
