What caused the Hoovervilles to end?
Hoovervilles, the makeshift shantytowns that arose during the Great Depression, began to decline as the economy improved in the late 1930s and early 1940s. The New Deal programs implemented by President Franklin D. Roosevelt provided relief and jobs, helping to stabilize the economy and reduce unemployment. Additionally, the onset of World War II created a surge in industrial jobs, further diminishing the need for such encampments. As people found stable housing and employment, the Hoovervilles gradually disappeared.
Who was the first president to talk to American people?
It depends on which time period you are asking about. The first president of the United States was George Washington, so he would have been the first to talk with the American people, in the late 1700s. But how a president met the voters changed over the decades. Washington would have mainly talked to the people in person, giving speeches or holding events (such as parties). Back in the late 1700s, there were only newspapers and magazines, and it took days for them to reach people. There was no radio, no TV, no internet, no telegraph, no telephone, not even a transcontinental railroad to make travel easier. Usually, candidates, including those running for president, rode in horse-drawn carriages to events, and met the voters who came out to see them. In the mid-1800s, new inventions made communication easier, and in fact, by the late 1800s, newspapers and magazines arrived much more quickly; the telegraph and the telephone made it easier and faster for journalists to report the latest information. You could now read about what the president was saying the same day he said it. Then, in 1920, radio came along; the first president to talk to the American people by radio was Warren G. Harding. Calvin Coolidge used radio to campaign, and so did Herbert Hoover, but the most famous "radio president" was Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the 1930s. And of course, once television came along and became popular (beginning in the late 1940s), presidents could use TV to reach out and talk to millions of Americans.
