  4. "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime," lyrics by Yip Harburg, music by Jay Gorney (1931)They used to tell me I was building a dream, and so I followed the mob, When there was earth to plow, or guns to bear, I was always there right on the job. They used to tell me I was building a dream, with peace and glory ahead, Why should I be standing in line, just waiting for bread?Once I built a railroad, I made it run, made it race against time. Once I built a railroad; now it's done. Brother, can you spare a dime? Once I built a tower, up to the sun, brick, and rivet, and lime; Once I built a tower, now it's done. Brother, can you spare a dime?Once in khaki suits, gee we looked swell, Full of that Yankee Doodly Dum, Half a million boots went slogging through Hell, And I was the kid with the drum!Say, don't you remember, they called me Al; it was Al all the time. Why don't you remember, I'm your pal? Buddy, can you spare a dime?Once in khaki suits, gee we looked swell, Full of that Yankee Doodly Dum, Half a million boots went slogging through Hell, And I was the kid with the drum!Say, don't you remember, they called me Al; it was Al all the time. Say, don't you remember, I'm your pal? Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Party’s Over: Crash and Depression, 1929 - 1939 John Jacob Raskob, Chief Executive of General Motors and head of the Democratic National Committee, published an article entitled "Everybody Ought to be Rich" in the Ladies Home Journal. Raskob suggested that every American could become wealthy by investing $15 a week in common stocks. He failed to realize, however, that the weekly salary of the average American worker was between $17 and $22.

  11. Party’s Over: Crash and Depression, 1929 - 1939 “When the war [World War I] closed . . . We were challenged with a... choice between the American system of rugged individualism and a European philosophy of diametrically opposed doctrines ­. . . of paternalism and state socialism. The acceptance of these ideas would have meant the destruction of self-government through centralization... [and] the undermining of the individual initiative and enterprise through which our people have grown to unparalleled greatness.” - Herbert Hoover, 1928 election speech

  25. “Pretty Boy Floyd” – Woody Guthrie But a many a starving farmerThe same old story toldHow the outlaw paid their mortgageAnd saved their little homes. Others tell you 'bout a strangerThat come to beg a meal,Underneath his napkinLeft a thousand dollar bill. It was in Oklahoma City,It was on a Christmas Day,There was a whole car load of groceriesCome with a note to say: Well, you say that I'm an outlaw,You say that I'm a thief.Here's a Christmas dinnerFor the families on relief. Yes, as through this world I've wanderedI've seen lots of funny men;Some will rob you with a six-gun,And some with a fountain pen. And as through your life you travel,Yes, as through your life you roam,You won't never see an outlawDrive a family from their home. If you'll gather 'round me, children,A story I will tell'Bout Pretty Boy Floyd, an outlaw,Oklahoma knew him well.It was in the town of Shawnee,A Saturday afternoon,His wife beside him in his wagonAs into town they rode. There a deputy sheriff approached himIn a manner rather rude,Vulgar words of anger,An' his wife she overheard. Pretty Boy grabbed a log chain,And the deputy grabbed his gun;In the fight that followedHe laid that deputy down. Then he took to the trees and timberTo live a life of shame;Every crime in OklahomaWas added to his name.
