Description | Cartoon shows a flood labeled "Unemployment" stretching as far as the eye can see under black storm clouds. Caught in the flood are a man clinging to a log, people on the roof of a house, and a drowning man. In the second year of the Depression, despite optimistic forecasts by business and political leaders, unemployment rose to five million. |
