Herbert Hoover actually said...

The Department of Commerce informs me that the totals expended or contracted for in new public works and betterments by National, State and local governments, in these last 6 months have not been less than $1,700 million and that this exceeds even the boom year of 1929 by over $200 million, and the organized effort to which you have contributed so much in creation will, I am confident, go still further in its accomplishments.
