An analysis from 1937 of the effects of the ongoing depression on American farmers and FDR's programs to assist them. This study was undertaken to assemble information concerning the relief and rehabilitation needs of farmers and to clarify the problems of the farm families that became dependent on public assistance during the depression. The specific objectives have been to describe the extent of the farm relief problem and the underlying causes of distress. The report emphasizes the fact that the depression in agriculture began long before 1929 and that the distress of the early 1930's merely accentuated farm problems of long standing. The report was prepared by Berta Asch, whose services were made available to the Works Progress Administration by the Resettlement Administration, and by A. R. Mangus; it was edited by Ellen Winston and Rebecca Farnham. Special acknowledgement is made of the contribution of T. J. Woofter, Jr., who wrote the Introduction and Chapters I, VI, and VIII. A. R. Mangus contributed Chapter VII and Appendix B-The Methodology of Rural Relief Studies. Ref: Corrington Gill; Letter of Transmittal Subject: Farming; Agriculture; Great Depression, New Deal; Dust Bowl.
