The Presidents were Hoover and FDR.

The Great Depression occurred beginning in late 1929, during the first year in office for President Herbert Hoover. His term was marked by little success in dealing with the economic collapse, and so he was defeated by Democratic candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt, who served from 1933 to 1945, including almost all of World War II. Congress later passed an amendment to limit the terms of the president to two.
