level of thinking, goes beyond the five senses. We
notice: specific events occurring, different
feelings within ourselves, and view...

The Great Depression of the 1930 s was a great
blow to America especially after the seeming
prosperity of the twenties. The depression was a
result not of false prosperity in the twenties,
although the distribution of wealth was very

from a lack of economic and political maturity to
