  • 1933–1941, a New Deal for Forest Service Research in California
    The Search for Forest Facts: A History of the Pacific Southwest Forest and Range Experiment Station, 1926–2000 Chapter 4: 1933–1941, A New Deal for Forest Service Research in California By the time President Franklin Delano Roosevelt won his landslide election in 1932, forest research in the United States had grown considerably from the early work of botanical explorers such as Andre Michaux and his classic Flora Boreali- Americana (Michaux 1803), which first revealed the Nation’s wealth and diversity of forest resources in 1803. Exploitation and rapid destruction of forest resources had led to the establishment of a federal Division of Forestry in 1876, and as the number of scientists professionally trained to manage and administer forest land grew in America, it became apparent that our knowledge of forestry was not entirely adequate. So, within 3 years after the reorganization of the Bureau of Forestry into the Forest Service in 1905, a series of experiment stations was estab- lished throughout the country. In 1915, a need for a continuing policy in forest research was recognized by the formation of the Branch of Research (BR) in the Forest Service—an action that paved the way for unified, nationwide attacks on the obvious and the obscure problems of American forestry. This idea developed into A National Program of Forest Research (Clapp 1926) that finally culminated in the McSweeney-McNary Forest Research Act (McSweeney-McNary Act) of 1928, which authorized a series of regional forest experiment stations and the undertaking of research in each of the major fields of forestry. Then on March 4, 1933, President Roosevelt was inaugurated, and during the “first hundred days” of Roosevelt’s administration, Congress passed his New Deal plan, putting the country on a better economic footing during a desperate time in the Nation’s history.

Keynes and the Dollar in 1933 Sebastian Edwards NBER Working Paper No. 23141 February 2017 JEL No. B22,B26,B3,E31,E5,F31,N22 ABSTRACT On December 1933, John Maynard Keyes published an open letter to President Roosevelt, where he wrote: “The recent gyrations of the dollar have looked to me more like a gold standard on the booze than the ideal managed currency of my dreams.” In this paper I use high frequency data to investigate whether the gyrations of the dollar were unusually high throughout this period. My results show that although volatility was pronounced, it was not higher than during October 1931- July 1933. I analyze Keynes writings on the international monetary system in an effort to understand what he meant in his letter.

  • Highway to Hitler*
    HIGHWAY TO HITLER* Nico Voigtländer Hans‐Joachim Voth UCLA and NBER University of Zurich and CEPR First draft: February 2014 This draft: October 2014 Abstract: Can infrastructure investment win “hearts and minds”? We analyze a famous case in the early stages of dictatorship – the building of the motorway network in Nazi Germany. The Autobahn was one of the most important projects of the Hitler government. It was intended to reduce unemployment, and was widely used for propaganda purposes. We examine its role in increasing support for the Nazi regime by analyzing new data on motorway construction and the 1934 plebiscite, which gave Hitler greater powers as head of state. Our results suggest that road building was highly effective, reducing opposition to the nascent Nazi regime. Keywords: political economy, infrastructure spending, establishment of dictatorships, pork‐barrel politics, Nazi regime JEL Classification: H54, P16, N44, N94 * For helpful comments, we thank Paula Bustos, Julia Cage, Vasco Carvalho, Ruben Enikolopov, Rick Hornbeck, Jose Luis Peydro, Diego Puga, Giacomo Ponzetto, Kurt Schmidheiny, Moritz Schularick, and David Strömberg. Seminar audiences at Basel University, Bonn University, the Juan March Institute, Carlos III, Madrid, the Barcelona Summer Forum, and CREI offered useful suggestions. We are grateful to Hans‐Christian Boy, Vicky Fouka and Cathrin Mohr for outstanding research assistance. Voth thanks the European Research Council. 2 I. Introduction The idea that political support can effectively be bought has a long lineage – from the days of the Roman emperors to modern democracies, `bread and circus’ have been used to boost the popularity of politicians. A large literature in economics argues more generally that political support can be ‘bought’.
