This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.

What two developments of the 1920s are considered underlying causes of the 1930s depression?

a)  Red Scare and Bonus Army  

b) recession and trade deficit  

c) overproduction and excessive speculation  

d) union strikes and wage-price spiral

Answer: c) overproduction and excessive speculation.

Explanation:

Throughout the 1920s, banks engaged in speculation buying, using investors' funds to buy stocks.

When consumer spending started to decline in the spring of 1929, manufacturers faced strong overproduction that led to an excess of goods and a slowdown in production.

However, stock prices kept rising until the stock market reached its peak and then it started crashed. By then, people rushing to withdraw their funds from the banks found they could not be repayed.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Creation of Federal Reserve System

Explanation:

An important innovation initiated by Wilson was a complete reorganization of the financial and banking system and monetary circulation. Today, it is difficult for Americans to imagine what kind of financial turmoil reigned in their country from the time of the Civil War until the beginning of the 20th century. At that time, about seven thousand banks were functioning. Gold and silver coins, certificates, notes of the National Bank were in circulation, and all the monetary circulation was under the full control of Wall Street.

To harmonize the financial system with the needs of the economy, Wilson was pushing for a law to create the Federal Reserve System (Fed), which serves as the central bank of the United States. The President adhered to the “golden mean.” He listened to the advice of conservatives and, for the sake of the effective functioning of the financial system, agreed to create 12 regional federal banks. However, the stumbling block was the principle of forming the Fed's board, which, according to the personal plan of Wilson and his progressive advisers, was supposed to regulate its activities. The president had to withstand the extraordinary pressure of banking tycoons accusing him of trying to strip them of control of their property. But he did not make any concessions, considering the appointment of the composition of the board of the Federal Reserve System solely the competence of the president. Therefore, in the management of the Fed, although its ownership is private, the state plays a significant role.
