  • Iowans Harry Hopkins and Henry A. Wallace Helped Craft Social Security's Blueprint
    Iowans Harry Hopkins and Henry A. Wallace Helped Craft Social Security's Blueprint FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY AND MUSEUM by David E. Balducchi staggering 25 percent of American workers were unemployed. Poverty rates for the el­ Aderly neared 50 percent. The spring of 1934 was a time of colossal hardship. In the months to come, however, Iowans Harry Lloyd Hopkins and Henry Agard Wallace would help invent the land­ mark Social Security Act, which would include un­ employment insurance. While Hopkins and Wallace are known as liberal lions of the New Deal in areas of work relief and agricultural policy, their influential roles on the cabinet-level Committee on Economic Security are little known. Harry Hopkins was born in Sioux City in 1890, where his father operated a harness shop. The family lived in Council Bluffs and a few other midwestern towns. When Hopkins was 11, they settled in Grin- nell; his mother hoped her children could attend col­ lege there. Hopkins graduated from Grinnell College in 1912 and then began to make a name for himself in child welfare, unemployment, work relief, and public health, particularly in New York City. Agree­ ing with New York Governor Franklin Delano Roos­ evelt's push for aggressive unemployment relief measures, Hopkins supported Roosevelt's presiden­ tial bid. In May 1933 he joined Roosevelt in Wash­ ington as the bulldog head of the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA). His mastery of inter­ preting and carrying out Roosevelt's wishes later would make him the president's closest advisor. Iowa-born Harry Hopkins was a key m em ber on the cabinet- level Com m ittee on Economic Security.

  • Henry Wallace, America's Forgotten Visionary
    Henry Wallace, America's Forgotten Visionary http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/14297-henry-wallace-americas-forgotten-... Sunday, 03 February 2013 06:55 By Peter Dreier, Truthout | Historical Analysis One of the great "What if?" questions of the 20th century is how America would have been different if Henry Wallace rather than Harry Truman had succeeded Franklin Roosevelt in the White House. Filmmaker Oliver Stone has revived this debate in his current ten-part Showtime series, "The Untold History of the United States," and his new book (written with historian Peter Kuznick) of the same name. In the late 1930s and early 1940s, only FDR eclipsed Wallace - Roosevelt's secretary of agriculture (1933-1940) and then his vice president (1941-1944) - in popularity with the American people. Stone's documentary series and book portray Wallace as a true American hero, a "visionary" on both domestic and foreign policy. Today, however, Wallace is a mostly forgotten figure. If Stone's work helps restore Wallace's rightful place in our history and piques the curiosity of younger Americans to learn more about this fascinating person, it will have served an important purpose. Henry Agard Wallace. (Photo: Department of Commerce) Wallace almost became the nation's president. In 1940, he was FDR's running mate and served as his vice president for four years. But in 1944, against the advice of the Democratic Party's progressives and liberals - including his wife Eleanor - FDR reluctantly allowed the party's conservative, pro-business and segregationist wing to replace Wallace with Sen. Harry Truman as the vice presidential candidate, a move that Stone calls the "greatest blunder" of Roosevelt's career.

  • Harry Hopkins: Social Work Legacy and Role in New Deal Era Policies
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Houston Institutional Repository (UHIR) Harry Hopkins: Social Work Legacy and Role in New Deal Era Policies Marcos J. Martinez, M.S.W. Elisa Kawam, M.S.W. Abstract The early 20th century was rife with much social, political, and economic change both positive and negative. During this time, social work became a profession, cemented by great minds and visionaries who sought a better society. Harry Hopkins was one such visionary: he was a model leader in social service provision and was one of the New Deal architects. This essay considers the roots of Hopkin’s influence, his experiences operating large federal agencies, his work in the Franklin Delano Roosevelt administration during the Great Depression and into World War II, and the dedication and commitment he displayed throughout his career as a public servant. Keywords: social work, Harry Hopkins, New Deal, FDR Administration “Now or never, boys—social security, minimum wage, work programs. Now or never.” –Harry Hopkins (Sherwood, 1948 as cited in Goldberg & Collins, 2001, p.34) Introduction At the turn of the century and into the decades of the early 20th century that followed, the United States saw a time of great struggle and change. Known as the Progressive era, the years between 1875 and 1925 were marked by the obtainment of labor rights for workers and children, the Women’s Suffrage movement, U.S. involvement in World War I (1914-1918) and the subsequent economic boom, and establishment of the social welfare system (Goldberg & Collins, 2001; Kawam, 2012; Segal, 2013).

An Examination of Work Relief in Upstate New York, 1931-1943. Becoming the first U.S. state to provide direct funding and administrative support for work relief to its cities, counties and townships; with the creation of the Temporary Emergency Relief Administration in November of 1931, New York took its first steps in what would become a long tradition of work relief in the state. However, existing academic examinations of work relief in upstate New York in large part ignore activities in the state’s upstate region in favor of higher profile operations in New York City.

  • Unauthorized Welfare: the Origins of Immigrant Status Restrictions in American Social Policy
    Unauthorized Welfare: The Origins of Immigrant Status Restrictions in American Social Policy Cybelle Fox Forthcoming in the Journal of American History On July 22, 1971, officials from the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW) met to clarify regulations concerning non-citizens’ access to welfare and Medicaid. The meeting was prompted by the Supreme Court’s judgment in Graham v Richardson a month earlier. Carmen Richardson, the lead plaintiff, immigrated from Mexico at the age of 51. Thirteen years later, she became disabled and applied for public assistance in Arizona, but was denied because she did not satisfy the state’s 15-year residency requirement for non-citizens. Without the $90 monthly grant, she was forced to subsist off the charity of friends and neighbors. With help from a legal aid lawyer, she sued the state on behalf of the 3,000 other non-citizens, like her, barred from public assistance in Arizona. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court declared state alienage-based restrictions, like Arizona’s, unconstitutional because they violated the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment and encroached on the federal government’s exclusive power to regulate immigration.1 At their meeting, HEW officials had to interpret the ruling and issue guidance for states when non-citizens like Richardson applied for assistance. They reached a consensus to make “full use” of the Graham decision and “prohibit the denial of Federally aided financial or medical assistance…to an otherwise eligible individual solely because he is not a citizen or because of his status as an alien.” This position, they clarified, would prohibit states from denying aid even if the alien was “in the country illegally.” They estimated that the “incremental” cost of this regulation would be “minimal” because, unlike Arizona, most states already covered individuals regardless of citizenship or legal status.2 Despite the anticipated low marginal cost, the regulation was a bold move.

  • The Works Progress Administration in Oregon: an Administrative Overview
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Karyle Butcher for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in the co-departments of History. Business, and Economics presented on July 9. 1990. Title: The Works Progress Administration in Oregon: An Administrative Overview Abstract approved Redacted for Privacy William Robbins The depression of the 1930s had an early effect on the state of Oregon. A decline in timber and agricultural production resulted in severe unemployment in the late 1920s.State and local charitable organizations attempted to care for the unemployed but they did not have the financial resources to do so. Although President Herbert Hoover was worried about the effects of the growing economic crisis on the business community, he continued to believe that the depression would be short lived despite the worsening social conditions. When Franklin Roosevelt was elected president he initiated a series of measures aimed at ending the depression and bringing people back into the work force. Among those measures was the Works Progress Administration (WPA). In Oregon the WPA built upon earlier state relief organizations. However, unlike the earlier Federal Emergency Relief Administration, the WPA was a federal organization staffed with federal employees. Its programs were run according to federal guidelines and regulations and much of its funding came from the federal government. Those guidelines often worked against the state programs. The means test, quota systems, and the need to refer programs to Washington D.C. prevented the Oregon program from being as effective as it could be. In addition, the Oregon legislature and governor acted against the program by not providing adequate funding to support it.
