Me it is my belief that the only thing that we have to fear is fear itself. By the time Franklin Roosevelt gives his march 1933 inaugural speech, almost a quarter of the nation is unemployed. More than 5,000 banks have failed and drought is persisting in key agricultural areas of the country. People must have faith. Coming up in the next hour, stories from the Great Depression as we take you to places like toledo and then in 1931 five of the six largest banks all failed at the same time which made it the largest banking failure of the Great Depression.

It runs from here down close to the town of silverton. And so
