Results of This New Organization of the Economy? 1. Unemployment virtually disappeared. 2. Expansion of “big government.” 3. Excessive govt. regulations in economy 4. Some gross mismanagement --> overlapping jurisdictions. 5. Close cooperation between public and private sectors. 6. Unprecedented opportunities for disadvantaged groups. Something to think about – Sabotage & Sedition Acts… were these a violation of the 1st Amendment Rights? Civil Rights being taken away or restrained for a “greater good”?

1917 Selective Service Act (Draft) 24,000,000 men registered for the draft by the end of 1918. 4,800,000 men served in WW1 - (2,000,000 saw active combat). 400,000 African-Americans served in segregated units. 15,000 Native-Americans served as scouts, messengers, and snipers in non-segregated units. Women served in non-combat positions

U.S. Army in Europe US needed in France after Russia pulls out of war Played key role in stopping German invasion of France Second Battle of the Marne marked the point of German withdrawal from France (1918)

The End Nears Germany wanted to surrender in October 1918, with a peace based on The 14 Points. US had mostly contributed food, munitions, money, oil and manpower The prospect of endless American troops was key.
