OK:
It took me a while to locate some data.

The Fed didn't increase liquidity until 1933. Money supply fell by one-third between '29 & '33. In Oct. '31 the Fed actually raised the discount rate by 2 pts. Industrial production fell 26% in the following six months.
9,800 banks failed during that period. Again, the key differences are that the Fed is pumping in liquidity and banking system is in relatively good shape.
