Released September 09, 1933
Featuring Moe Howard (Solo)
MGM
2.85 min. (PSA)

A public service annoucement made in support of President Franklin Roosevelt's National Recovery Administration, urging employers to hire. Moe appears as an exterminator, whom Jimmy Durante urges to hire more men.

The dialogue performed in musical rhyme, Give a Man a Job was written by Rodgers & Hart. The number was originally planned for MEET THE BARON, and then HOLLYWOOD PARTY, but ultimately not included in either. MGM quickly assigned the piece to this short subject as part of MGM's support for President Roosevelt's NRA program.
