So... The great depression actually coincided with the dust bowl in the West. Thousands of farms were effectively not producing, many ended up migrating away from the area. So there was less food than normal.

Dust Bowl started in 1934, during the depression, yes. That's FIVE YEARS where people starved but there was enough food before the issues hit.
