  • Historic Context
    3.0 HISTORIC CONTEXT 3.1 Overview of Ohio, 1940–1950 During World War II, Ohio experienced significant industrial development and population growth. The state’s diversified industrial base and geographical proximity to transportation routes and other population centers made it well suited for wartime production needs. The industrial development and consequential economic prosperity generated during World War II shaped Ohio’s economic, cultural, and social history for decades thereafter. The United States resisted involvement in World War II from 1939 through much of 1941. Even as the Axis powers swept through Europe and eastern Asia, American isolationists insisted that the U.S. had no key interests at stake. At President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s urging, Congress enacted a “cash and carry” policy in 1939, allowing the U.S. to supply goods to any nation that could pay cash and carry the goods away (Knepper 2003:367). While providing great assistance to Great Britain and its allies, the program also offered economic benefits to the U.S., which remained enmeshed in the Great Depression. More importantly, it began the process of shifting American industries to a wartime footing. In September 1940, Congress established the first peacetime military draft in the nation’s history. The Ohio National Guard was activated and designated the 37th Division. Guard units traveled to Camp Shelby, Mississippi, for training. In Columbus, Fort Hayes served as a reception center for military draftees and recruits and was staffed by 2,000 troops in its own right (Fort Hayes Metropolitan Education Center 2010). Roosevelt, a Democrat, handily won Ohio in the November 1940 presidential election, but Republicans dominated the state government and the Congressional delegation.
