During the first year of his presidency, Herbert Hoover did not achieve the following:
- **Hoover targeted organized crime, leading to the arrest of Al Capone.** (This was more associated with the efforts of the Treasury Department)
- **Hoover established programs that supported the funding of arts and literature.** (This was not a primary focus during his administration)
- **Hoover funded direct relief programs that created jobs for the unemployed.** (Hoover was more focused on volunteerism and indirect relief, and formal federal relief measures were limited in his early presidency)
- **Hoover regulated the business practices that had caused the depression.** (While Hoover sought to stabilize the economy through various measures, extensive regulation of businesses did not take place in his first year)
Overall, Hoover's approach to the depression was initially focused on voluntary cooperation between businesses and government, rather than extensive intervention. Therefore, none of the statements accurately reflect significant achievements of Hoover in the first year of his presidency.
