Scope and Contents

Public works programs were urged simultaneously with the establishment of unemployment reserves. December 1931 and early 1932 correspondence with Arthur J. Altmeyer, Thomas Parkinson and Robert M. LaFollette Jr. included these subjects. Edwin E. Witte wrote John Andrews (1/16/32), giving the AALL credit for the Wisconsin unemployment insurance bill's passage and praising Andrews personally for his contribution. In February, Joseph Chamberlain and Andrews drafted legislation that would empower the United States Employees Compensation Commission to issue safety orders.
