Inter-War Period (between WW 1 and II), The World Takes Advantage of American Isolationism | BETWEEN 2 WARS | 1933 part 3 of 3 - YouTube (2)

back by the non-interventionists. He can only issue a public condemnation of the Japanese.

But this is a turning point. The Japanese are not playing games and Roosevelt knows

it. A second Vinson-Trammel act in 1938 aims to beef up the army by 20%, and the Two-Ocean

Navy act creates plans that could increase the US Navy by 70% by 1940.

Yet at this time it still seems unlikely that they will ever be used. The US remain fiercely

isolationist. In August 1935, the Congress passes its first neutrality act, banning all

export of arms and munitions to belligerent nations. Roosevelt is not in favor of this.

See, this restricts him so he cannot aid friendly countries like France and Britain if they're

in need, and he even considers vetoing it. But when Mussolini invades Abyssinia, FDR

wants to prevent Italy from getting American arms, which prompts him to sign the act after

all. The law also specifies that US citizens who

are traveling to belligerent nations do so at their own risk and that they cannot expect

the US to intervene on their behalf. In early 1936, the act is renewed for another 14 months

and expanded by banning loans and credit lines to belligerent nations. Later amendments even

ban all American citizens from traveling on belligerent ships and forbid US ships from

transporting any arms at all. There are some backdoors though, through which allied nations

can be supported. Belligerent nations are allowed to buy American materials "not considered

to be an implement of war", like food and oil, provided they are exclusively using their

own ships and paying with cash on location. This is clearly meant for Britain and France,

who have the money and can safely cross the Atlantic at will. This is the' cash-and-carry'

system that I talked about on our World War Two channel, and at least gives Roosevelt

some cards to play with.

With a clever maneuver, Roosevelt prevents Japan from using the 'Cash and Carry' provision

in the Second Sino-Japanese War. This is considered partisan by FDR's political enemies, who fear

that Roosevelt is taking sides in a foreign conflict with god knows what agenda. When

the cash-and-carry provision's term expires in early 1939, Congress blocks its renewal, even after

the German annexation of Czechoslovakia and the outbreak of war in September. It isn't

until November 1939, when US public opinion begins to sway towards the Allies, that FDR

can renew and expand the cash-and-carry provision. From then on, the cash-and-carry provision

will include all materials, including the 'war materials' that weren't allowed under

the Neutrality Acts of 1935 and Cash and Carry act of 1937.

You could argue that US neutrality ended for all practical purposes in 1937, when the cash-and-carry

provision was introduced, designed by Roosevelt specifically to aid France and the UK. Roosevelt

is starting to pave the way for a US intervention on the Allied side in case of war. However,

years of pacifism, isolationism and non-interventionism had caused the US Navy and Army to lag behind.

Japan, Germany and Italy already start remilitarizing in the early 1930s, and after Japan begins

to wage war in 1931 and again in 1937, they find themselves virtually unopposed by other

major powers. The Japanese horizon gradually expands, and new lands in the pacific seem

up for grabs. Who would even dare to stop them? The US? Well, the US is not ready for

that, and it will have to make a considerable effort if it will ever stand a chance to maintain

dominion of its Pacific Interest. But in 1933, pretty much everyone feels that Japan is land

far, far away form any US harbor, right?

us to care about the rest of the world, they wouldn't have declared their independence

from it.'
