Bus* iii*-»s was prostrate: agriculture i was crusted under the weight of I ruinous prices and glutted mark* 1 eta; millions of worthy citizens I were out of employment, their > meager savings washed away tu 1 ■ bauk failures and their homes, threatened by foreclosure. The so- j called leaders of the day were terrified into inaction, doing nothing while they whispered behnid drawn curtains that democracy was on trial and might flounder in the general catastrophe.
