Description

The Blue Eagle: The N. R. A. under the sign of the great Blue Eagle is an emergency measure which was initiated by President Roosevelt to put people to work and to get the wheels of industry and business started again. The plan, in brief, puts pressure on one spoke of the wheel in order to set the whole cycle in motion. The purpose is to maintain a definite and constant balance between capital, labor, and consumption. No one of these three essential factors is to get out of proportion; that is, we must have neither too much nor too little of any one factor. Thus, under the N. R. A., the employers put more men to work. These men, in turn, spend their wages for the things they need. The factories, with business booming because of restored buying power, increase production, money begins to circulate freely and we have prosperity again.
