____	10.	A New Deal construction program established by Congress in 1933, it was designed to put people back to work. It built the Boulder Dam (renamed Hoover Dam) and Grand Coulee Dam, among other large projects.

____	12.	A term applied to industrial democracies that adopt various government-guaranteed social-welfare programs. The creation of Social Security and other measures of the Second New Deal fundamentally changed American society and established this for the first time.

____	13.	An association of industrialists and business leaders opposed to government regulation. In the era of the New Deal, the group promoted free enterprise and capitalism through a publicity campaign of radio programs, motion pictures, billboards, and direct mail.
