The years of the 1930s were the years of a world wide economic depression. Unemployment was estimated at up to 25 million in the United States. The depression brought with it widespread hunger and breadlines. Hawaii too was affected and for a while labor union organization appeared to come to a standstill. The loosely organized Vibora Luviminda withered away. The era of workers divided by ethnic groups in Hawaii was thus ended forever. (en)
