| Description | Cartoon shows Uncle Sam as a painter, attempting to paint the letters "NRA" across a map of the United States. A small man labeled "Impatience," (probably General Hugh Johnson, director of the NRA) jumps up and down, stepping on Uncle Sam's fingers as he does so. The National Recovery Administration, one of the first New Deal programs, was established to negotiate code agreements designed to stimulate industrial recovery. Johnson attacked his job with "demonic energy," but his failure to develop a coherent policy impeded the progress of the program, and Roosevelt replaced him after a year. |
