New York. National
Recovery Administration ?. New York. 1933.
Aluminum bank paperweight, the
eagle blue, the globe gold, on red base. Being a representation
of the emblem of an early Franklin D. Roosevelt depression
recovery effort. The NRA was the most controversial of his New
Deal agencies. Headed by General Hugh S. Johnson, an admirer of
Adolf Hitler's new Germany. Johnson would strike poses that
resembled Hitler when photographed. He was very dictatorial in
administering its new "Codes of Fair Competition". Nazi style
parades, banners, emblems and the Blue Eagle with motto "We do
our part" were used to create mass support for the National
Recovery Administration. The courts were used often to compel
small businesses to charge the same prices. Big business used
the codes to their own advantage in labor negotiations. Growing
dissatisfaction with General Johnson and interferance with
interstate commece, caused the Supreme Court to strike down the
NRA on May 27, 1935. Though it lasted only two years, many of
its provisions were included in the Wagner Act that followed.
The NRA was the shortest lived of the basic recovery efforts of
the FDR Administration. Some paint losses but very
scarce.
