The Wall Street Crash had led to huge economic trouble and growing unemployment. • Heinrich Bruning was the Chancellor of Germany, but was struggling to control the situation. He relied more and more on persuading President Hindenburg to pass laws using Article 48. Hindenburg was at heart a monarchist and didn’t really like democracy, so he was happy to rule by decree. • Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party was doing better than ever, they had won 108 seats during the 1930 Reichstag elections.

  • Chapter 17: the Great Depression Begins, 1929-1932
    The Great Depression Begins 1929–1932 Why It Matters Prosperity in the United States seemed limitless before the Great Depression struck. Overproduction and agricultural problems contributed to the economic catastrophe. President Hoover looked to voluntary business action and limited government relief as solutions, but these efforts failed. Meanwhile, millions of Americans lost their jobs and life savings. Artists and writers depicted this suffering, and many people turned to lighthearted films to escape their difficult lives. The Impact Today Events of this period remain important. • Hoover’s model of business-government cooperation is still influential. • John Steinbeck’s novel The Grapes of Wrath and Grant Wood’s painting American Gothic are permanent artistic legacies. The American Republic Since 1877 Video The Chapter 17 video, “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?” chronicles Depression-era life in the United States.

  • Mayor Isaac W. Fox 25Th Mayor of Lehi 193133; 19361937
    Mayor Isaac W. Fox 25th Mayor of Lehi 1931­33; 1936­1937 Following the January 23, 1931 death of Mayor Sydney Gilchrist, Isaac William Fox, mayor pro­tem, automatically assumed the mayorship. During a February 10, meeting of the city council, Fox was declared “the duly elected Mayor of Lehi City by right and power of the city council to serve until the first Monday in January, 1932. Mayor Fox was born in Lehi on march 17, 1877, son of Alfred H. and Mary Southwick Fox. He and his wife, Frances Winn, whom he had married in 1900, were parents of nine children. Fox was a successful farmer, poultry and dairy rancher. His grandson Kaye today still owns and operates the old Fox farmstead which borders the Jordan River near the Point of the Mountain. During Mayor Fox’s first two terms, he served with council members George S. Peterson, Edward J. Larsen, LeRoy E. Lott, Glen R. Adamson, Robert Gilchrist, and Joseph E. Smith; recorder Thomas F. Kirkham, treasurer Martha Ball, justice G. A. Wall, marshal Alex D. Christofferson, and attorney A.J. Evans. Fox’s third term (1936­38) was shared by council members Virgil H. Peterson, J.E. Johnson, Alvah H. Wing, Fred Peterson, and James W. Holden; recorder F.L. Evans; treasurer Inez Peterson, marshal Niron Fowler; justice George S. Peterson, and attorney O. DeVere Wooten. One of the earliest events of the Fox’s first term was the inauguration of Utah Beet Sugar Days, which eventually evolved into the now­famous Lehi Roundup. Despite the festive atmosphere of Sugar Days, the mood in Lehi and everywhere during the Great Depression was generally one of fear and anxiety.
