DBQ Notes
INTRODUCE SOURCES- As seen in the Brown Brothers Political Cartoon (Doc 4), Uncle Sam is seen pouring money into what appears to be a cannon ("Arms Spending"), which signifies the American government spending money on war-time goods as an means towards "recovery". The purpose of this political cartoon, is that the illustrator is trying to show the audience that through American industrial efforts/spending money on producing war-time weaponry, not only are our allies in Europe going to benefit, but the American economy will recover as well. This is historically significant because America and the rest of the world for that matter, has just experienced the worst economic depression in the history of mankind. Examples: such as the Cash and Carry policy, lend-lease act and the bases for destroyers act tested the neutrality laws. Was America really neutral before the war began?
Based on the ____Chart in Document 6, I say we were preparing for war, but at the same time we were building our economy back up, pulling ourselves out of the Great Depression. World War II breaking out in Europe was great for America from an economical standpoint. It was massive federal (government) spending (war bonds, taxes, etc.), along with propaganda that was meant to tap into you through different forms (emotional, fearful, nationalistic, etc.) to get you to "buy" into the war and the culture behind it.
Don't just say "Document 6 explains the effects of WWII on industry"
SOURCE IT ALWAYS
Always introduce the author of the source. It's rude not to.
