It was President Herbert Hoover. When the Great Depression began, he called the business leaders to meet him and he asked them to keep up the production or not to lay off workers or cut wages. He believed that helping one another and not relying on government aid is the way to end Great Depression.

I believe the answer is: President Hoover

During the great depression, president Hoover made the plead since he believed that reducing the amount of unemployment would means that there would be more consumers that able to purchase products in the market. This ideally would start to bring America out of the depression.

But in the end, the plea made by president hoover fails since the majority of companies do not possess enough money to keep all of their employees.
