Answer:
The correct answers are "newspaper publishers, private utility companies, and tobacco companies".
Explanation:
The three groups that were financially well off during the depression were newspaper publishers, private utility companies and tobacco companies, as well as automobile corporations. This was because these groups are extremely necessary for a well-functioning country. Newspapers are always necessary for the population to know what is happening in the country, public services are indispensable for the people and the tobacco companies are not affected by the crisis because of their great profitability.
Have a nice day!
