The Great Arsenal of Democracy: We Need YOU... (Sentences 124-148) Summary

... To Work Together and Produce Weapons and Other War Stuff

  • Britain is fighting against Germany's goal of world domination, but there's no demand for American troops. No U.S. government official has any plans to send people overseas, so don't believe anyone saying otherwise.
  • The U.S. can help by sending munitions and supplies to the front lines. And that won't put an end to American neutrality—Sweden and Russia are sending steel and ore to Germany multiple times per week.
  • America has to consider the needs of the good guys in defense planning, according to the top military experts in the nation. Priority 1 will always be the defense of the United States.
  • In producing all these supplies as quickly as possible, there'll be some sacrifices. But the democracy will always defend its people and their economy.
  • Workers have rights that'll be protected, but those workers must dedicate all they have to defense production. They need to produce the destroyers and the planes and the tanks without strikes and lockouts.
  • For its part, the U.S. government will work to keep prices stable, and avoid an increase in the cost of living.
  • Bottom line? Everyone has to work together.
