In a shocking revelation, a recent survey by The Business Week has exposed a disturbing trend in unemployment relief throughout the United States. As of April 1932, cities across the nation are facing a crisis in providing aid to the desperate, with local governments struggling to keep up with the demand. According to the report, private charity is faltering under the weight of the relief effort, and states are being forced to divert funds from other sources to meet the shortfall.
