The Committee on Public Information was created to rally public support of war. It was led by George Creel whose job was to sell America on the war and to sell the world on Wilsonian war goals.

There were over 8 million German-Americans in America, and rumors began to spread of spying and sabotage. A hysterical hatred of Germans and things related to Germany swept the nation.

The sought to prevent support of U.S. enemies during wartime. The Act of 1918 made it illegal to speak out against the government. Socialist Eugene V. Debs and the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) leader William D. Haywood were convicted under the Espionage Act.

At this time, any criticism of the government could be censored and punished. The Supreme Court upheld these laws in Schenck v. United States (1919); it argued that freedom of speech could be revoked when such speech posed a danger to the nation.

The Nation's Factories Go to War

Before the war, President Wilson created a Civilian Council of National Defense to study problems of economic mobilization. He had also increased the size of the army and created a shipbuilding program.

Fears of big government restricted efforts to coordinate the economy from Washington.

In 1918, Wilson appointed Bernard Baruch to head the War Industries Board to create order over the economic confusion. The Board never had much control, but it set a precedent for how the Federal government would handle the economy in times of crisis.

Workers in Wartime

Workers were discouraged from striking by the War Department's decree in 1918 that threatened to draft any unemployed male.

The National War Labor Board tried to fix labor disputes before they hurt the war effort. The IWW (Industrial Workers of the World) had some of the worst working conditions in the country. The AF of L's (American Federation of Labor) supported the war and because of this, membership had more than doubled by the end of the war.

Wartime inflation reduced wage gains; this led to thousands of strikes across the country.

In 1919, the greatest strike in American history hit the steel industry. More than 250,000 steelworkers went on strike, seeking the right to organize and collectively bargain. The steel companies refused to negotiate, and they brought in 30,000 African-Americans to keep the mills running. The strike eventually collapsed, crippling the union movement.

Thousands of blacks moved to the North in search of war-industry employment. Deadly disputes between whites and blacks broke out.

Herbert C. Hoover led the Food Administration. Unlike Europe, Hoover did not want to use ration cards to save food for export. Instead, he initiated wheatless Wednesdays and meatless Tuesdays. Like the other war administrators, this was on a voluntary basis.

Congress restricted the use of foodstuffs for manufacturing alcoholic beverages. This helped to accelerate the move to prohibition. In 1919, the 18th Amendment was passed, prohibiting all alcoholic drinks.

EVERYTHING IS DUE SOON! KEEP EVERYTHING FOR NEXT WEEK! READING TONIGHT 714-720!!! Did he really THIS IS FOR THE NEXT 2 DAYS!!! just throw her baby???

Please don’t throw my baby you kind gentle German!

1) Can you remember what Germany did to bring us into the war? Was it stupid for us to enter the war or stupid for them to do IT (explain)? German foreign secretary, Arthur Zimmermann secretly proposed a German-Mexican alliance with the Zimmermann note. News of the Zimmermann note leaked out to the public, infuriating Americans.

2) What did President Wilson do as a result of #1 on April 2, 1917? On April 2, 1917, President Wilson asked for a declaration of war from Congress after 4 more unarmed merchant ships were sunk.

3) What were the 3 main causes of World War one according to the textbook? Notice that they left out the opening cause (1914)…Do you agree with the textbook??? 3 Mains Causes of the War: Zimmermann Note, Germany declares unrestricted submarine warfare, Bolshevik Revolution…MAYBE OUR ALLIANCE WITH GB???

4) President Wilson was “always” supposedly against war… How did he persuade or trick the American public into supporting the war? President Wilson persuaded the American public to support war by declaring that America would be fighting "for a war to end war" and "to make the world safe for democracy."

5) DISCUSS WILSONS 14 POINTS (page #707 + GOOGLE) KEYS*** Which Point was the only one accepted (SUCKS TO BE YOU WILSON!) Hint: It eventually leads to a league of nations and the modern United Nations we have today! Wilson's Fourteen Potent Points Wilson delivered his Address to Congress on January 8, 1918. The message declared that WWI was being fought for a moral cause and it called for post-war peace in Europe. The message gave Wilson the position of moral leadership of the Allies.

The first 5 points and their effects were: 1) A proposal to abolish secret treaties pleased liberals of all countries. 2) Freedom of the seas appealed to the Germans, as well as to Americans who distrusted British sea power. 3) A removal of economic barriers among nations was comforting to Germany, which feared postwar vengeance. 4) Reduction of armament burdens was gratifying to taxpayers. 5) An adjustment of colonial claims in the interests of both native people and the colonizers was reassuring to the anti- imperialists. The largest point, #14, foreshadowed the League of Nations - an international organization that Wilson dreamed would provide a system of collective security.
