The White House, December 24, 1933, Year 2774 of the Republic of China.
The economic crisis in this plane is bigger and more harmful.
Under these conditions, the social contradictions in the United States have become even more acute.
However, compared to the original time and space, the United States has one advantage, that is, they gained much more benefits from World War I, with more than 5 million square kilometers of new territory and the repatriation of nearly 10 million black people, giving them enough space.
They moved around and implemented the new homestead law, which barely kept their social conflicts from breaking out.
But this can only be delayed.
After all, those new territories are not good in terms of population or economy.
They cannot serve as markets to digest their products.
They can only give those bankrupt people something to eat and not starve to death.
If the economy cannot recover for a long time, this social conflict will definitely break out.
So, under these conditions, the United States began to turn right.
In last year's presidential election, the unlucky Hoover was defeated.
Although he was a famous humanitarian, he was of no use.
Humanism could not bring economic prosperity or solve unemployment and hunger, so he could only give up.
Liuliu stepped down.
In the original time and space, Franklin Roosevelt came to power, but Roosevelt's classmate in this dimension died in India long before World War I.
While investigating the "Indian arms incident", he was attacked by Indian extremists and died in the line of duty.
See Chapter 220 Therefore, the new president of this dimension is John Nance Garner, the candidate promoted by the Democratic Party.
He proposed a plan to "implement the New Deal and save the economy" during the election.
He was a great success and won the presidency with an overwhelming majority of the votes. throne. jack.
This man is a well-known hardliner, and he is also a white supremacist racist in the "red neck" America.
In addition, he is also a Monroe man.
In the history of the original time and space, he served as the 44th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives from 1931 to 1933, and the 32nd Vice President of the United States from 1933 to 1941.
In early 1933, when Garner took office as president, the storm of the Great Depression swept across the United States.
Unemployment, bankruptcy, closures, and plummeting were everywhere.
The pain, fear, and despair of the United States could be seen everywhere.
So Garner actively went to various places to give speeches to boost morale.
He also showed great confidence, claiming that his "New Deal" would definitely save the United States.
Thanks to his active activities, the public sentiment in the United States was finally temporarily stabilized.
Actively promote the "Ghana New Deal" with relief, reform and rehabilitation as its main content.
The content of this "Ghana New Deal" is similar to that of the "Roosevelt Administration" in the original time and space.
They both abandoned traditional laissez-faire, strengthened government intervention in the economic field, implemented deficit finance, vigorously developed public utilities, and increased infrastructure construction in new territories. to stimulate the economy.
However, Garner went further and introduced some fascist policies, such as restricting non-white immigration and continuing to deport blacks, people of color, and Latinos in the country.
He claimed that these people robbed the white-skinned people of their wealth.
Work.
Moreover, he changed the approach of the Hoover administration and froze the property of Jews who had not yet evacuated, claiming that it was these Jews who caused the economic crisis.
Well, this statement is not wrong.
So while the United States is trying to save itself, it is ostracizing blacks, Asians, Latinos, and Jews.
Moreover, this time the United States acted very decisively and ruthlessly against the Jews.
It first froze all Jewish assets and at the same time ordered restrictions on Jews leaving the country.
In addition, the intelligence they obtained was very accurate, and many Jewish hidden accounts and assets were also confiscated by the federation.
The Bureau of Investigation dug it up.
In fact, this operation against the Jews was also completed with the support of the American consortium.
These American conglomerates have long been trying to get another handful.
They have been coveting the wealth of American Jews for a long time.

Although many of these wealthy Jewish people are their partners, in the face of interests, this kind of friendship cannot stand the test.
Besides, the economic crisis caused the Jews to leave early, which affected their plans, causing them to make many mistakes in the sheep shearing operation, and the losses caused were considerable.
If we don't take the opportunity to vent our anger, how long will it take?
As a result, the Jews whose assets were still in the United States were in trouble.
The government and Wall Street predators teamed up to block their properties, leaving them unable to withdraw even one cent of their deposits.
It is worth mentioning that the director of the FBI in this dimension is not the Edgar Hoover of the original time and space.
This Hoover joined the army during World War I and died in England.
Let alone become the director of the FBI, there is no chance of even entering this unit.
The current director of the FBI is a man named Gene Zaku, who is nicknamed "Zaku of the Seven Stars" because he likes ancient astrology.
This Zaku Bureau Chief was unknown in the original time and space, but he handled the case with divine help.
He began to rise to prominence in the Bureau of Investigation, the predecessor of the FBI.
Later, he made great contributions in last year's "Veteran Incident" and became the director.
In July this year, after the Bureau of Investigation was reorganized into the FBI, he became the first director.
When the economic crisis broke out, Director Zaku began to pay attention to collecting intelligence about the Jews, and now he has indeed made great achievements in one fell swoop.
He dug up a large number of hidden Jewish assets, which greatly improved the government's predicament.
No matter how foreign countries evaluate the new president, the "Ghana New Deal" has indeed played a great role.
Since September this year, the U.S. economy has begun to improve.
By this Christmas, I can finally have a somewhat comfortable New Year, but compared with before the crisis, it is much worse.
"Cordell, do you think there are any other ways to speed up economic recovery?"
Garner rubbed his forehead and asked the Secretary of State.
Comrade Cactus is still not satisfied with the current situation.
He feels that he can do better.
Secretary of State Cordell Hull spread his hands and said helplessly: "Mr.
President, the current international market is generally weak, and the major powers have erected trade barriers, which is really not easy to handle.
It is not easy for us to achieve where we are now."
In the history of the original time and space, this Cordell Hull also served as Secretary of State from the time Franklin Roosevelt was elected president, and worked until 1944.
He served as secretary of state for nearly twelve years, longer than any of his predecessors and the longest-serving secretary of state in U.S. history.
Some people believe that he is the most outstanding Secretary of State in American history.
However, even Hull has no better solution to the current situation.
In the history of the original time and space, the United States could still take advantage of the weakness of old Europe after World War I to play in a small circle in the Americas and conclude trade agreements and tariffs with Latin American countries.
Treaty of Reciprocity.
In the original time and space, Hull personally took action and signed a series of reciprocal trade agreements with Latin American countries, reducing tariffs by 30 to 50 percent.
In this way, the United States can export capital and dump products in large quantities to these regions, expanding the shrinking foreign market.
But this plane is not easy to deal with.
After the all-out war in South America, the pattern of the entire South America has completely changed.
Now there are only five countries left in the entire South America.
Colombia is an old enemy, so there’s no need to ask.
Chile and Paraguay have obviously moved towards China, while Brazil has leaned towards the Allies, fighting fiercely with Britain and France, and Argentina has become involved with the Allies.
This is not easy to start with.
Garner sighed and said: "It seems that we can only increase public expenditure and increase infrastructure construction in the three states of West Africa, Guyana and the Caribbean."
"Mr.
President, can you talk to China?
Now, only their market can meet our needs.
As long as they are willing to increase our market share, it will be much better.
Although the Soviet Union does not have an economic crisis, their market capacity is too small ” "But China doesn't need our industrial products now, they only need raw materials."

Garner shook his head.
"China itself doesn't need it, but they can change hands.
The People's Revolutionary League is now at the peak of construction, and their products are definitely not enough.
Now that the People's Revolutionary League has closed the market to the outside world, it can only find a way through China."
During the discussion, the secretary came in and said to Garner: "Mr.
President, the film crew is ready, can we start now?"
"Okay, we can start.
Cordell, we will discuss this issue later.
I am going to do a pre-Christmas fireside chat show today."
Garner stood up.
"Okay, President" Although Roosevelt died, it is not surprising that "Fireside Chat", a program that uses mass communication methods for political public relations activities, still appeared.
Roosevelt died, but the think tanks of the Democratic Party did not die.
They originally came up with this thing, and Ghana can still use it.
However, the "fireside chat" in this dimension is even more advanced.
It is not only a live broadcast on a radio station, but also a live broadcast on a television station.
Americans not only listened to his speeches on the radio, but also watched his speeches on television.
At this time, in front of the fireplace in the foreign guest reception room downstairs of the Presidential Palace, the staff had installed loudspeakers next to the fireplace and set up cameras around it.
Reporters from major media outlets such as ABC, CBS and Common Broadcasting Corporation are ready for interviews.
Garner said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, I hope this speech will be more cordial, without the formality of officialdom, just like sitting at home, talking casually."
"Of course, Mr.
President, as you wish" The host picked up the microphone and said to the camera: "Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, I wish you all a Merry Christmas.
This fireside chat will now begin.
Next, we will conduct an interview with President John Nance Garner."
A reporter pointed out to him that because of the large number of bank failures, many people no longer trust banks.
Afterwards, President Cactus began to show off his actor-level acting skills.
President Cactus used a very kind tone and patiently explained, advised and educated the public.
He said: "It is understandable that you are worried.
But I want to point out a simple fact.
When you deposit your money in the bank, the bank does not Instead of locking it in a vault, use it to pass Invest through various credit methods, such as buying government bonds and making mortgages.
In other words, the bank puts your money to work so that the entire institution can rotate.
It's safer in an open bank than under a mattress."
Then, reporters asked questions, and Garner answered them one by one.
Of course, this kind of questions and answers were all arranged in advance, but it must be said that this unprecedented show was very successful, and the fireside chat was widely welcomed.
Mr.
Cactus' support has soared, which has also improved society's confidence and eliminated many disharmonious factors.
Hanking.
The fireside chat held in the White House is not only watched by Americans, but Wen Desi and others also watched this episode of the fireside chat.
After reading it, Wen Desi commented: "The content is still the same, nothing new.
But I must admit that Mr.
Garner is a good actor, and the Democratic Party's public relations activities are well designed.
They have changed the previous diplomatic rhetoric and used cordial and sincere The tone of voice and simple and practical sentences communicate with the public, which makes the public who are used to seeing the politicians' faces feel refreshing, which is indeed very effective."
"Hahaha" everyone laughed.
Zhang Lizheng said: "This economic crisis has indeed changed the political landscape of many countries.
The Spanish royal government collapsed and became a republic."
Caffur shook his head and said: "The political situation in Spain has been very chaotic in recent years.

All parties have come and gone.
The republic cannot solve the problem.
Especially the contradiction between the left and the right is extremely acute.
Now it seems that it is only a matter of time before the civil war breaks out."
He continued: "However, Spain's problem is only a minor matter.
What is more troublesome now is Austria.
After the death of Ferdinand V, Crown Prince Karl was unable to convince the public.
The entire Austria was in chaos and was likely to split again.
The most important thing is that , Germany is likely to take action.”
Wen Desi nodded: "Well, if Austria continues to split, it will be a very bad thing for Germany.
If you want to change this situation, the best way is to eat Austria yourself.
William III's ambitions are not at all comparable to His father is young, and now with the style of these two, they are likely to take action."
"Could it be the Anschluss?"
Zhang Lizheng was surprised.
Wen Desi took a sip of tea and said: "Yes, Germany's dream of building a Greater Germany has never been eliminated.
In the past, there was no chance and had to give up.
But now the opportunity is in front of them, and they will not give up.
At present, Britain and France The United States and other countries have been badly affected by the economic crisis and are unable to interfere.
Moreover, this is an affair of the Allied Powers, and it is probably difficult for them to agree on it.
If Hitler acts faster, there is great hope. " "The only one who has the ability to intervene now is Comrade Stalin."
Wen Desi smiled and said: "However, William III and Hitler are likely to use Belarus as a bargaining chip to negotiate terms with Stalin
