Description
Three decades ago our nation was suffering from the worst depression in its history. Florida was suffering from the double effects of the nation's depression and the erosion of its economy following the collapse of the real estate boom in the. mid-twenties.
During the 1930's our state regained some of its economic composure, but the gathering war clouds which appeared on the horizon toward the end of the decade meant certain trouble. No segment of our nation was prepared to meet the terrific readjustments demanded by the all-out war which began in l941 - least of all, Florida.
