Depression-era variant suggests how people saw "ship of state" in 30s

Came across this reference to a game called "Nira" on the Modern Mechanix blog.  This is dated March, 1934.

EDIT:  No idea about the rules, but here's some interesting context on the choice of name (compliments of Wikipedia here):

The National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA), officially known as the Act of June 16, 1933 (Ch. 90, 48 Stat. 195, formerly codified at 15 U.S.C. sec. 703), was an American statute which authorized the President of the United States to regulate industry and permit cartels and monopolies in an attempt to stimulate economic recovery, and which established a national public works program.^[1][2] The legislation was enacted in June 1933 during the Great Depression as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal legislative program. Section 7(a) of the bill, which protected collective bargaining rights for unions, proved contentious (especially in the Senate),^[1][3] but both chambers eventually passed the legislation and President Roosevelt signed the bill into law on June 16, 1933. ...etc.

(Vital aspects of the policy were later deemed unconstitutional and it was nullified.)
