The silver slippers in the book and the Yellow Brick Road in the film may have symbolized the silver issue in political and social movements in "The Wizard of Oz."
Specifically, the above answer assumes an interpretation of the original 1900 book edition never publicly acknowledged by author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919). But great literary pieces cooperate with interpretations beyond those of their creator. Such is the case here where some critics and readers see the magic slippers and yellow brick road as symbolic of the controversy over the silver versus the gold monetary standard in the United States of the late nineteenth century.
